A Beautiful Day


We had SUCH a good time just going away for the weekend before JT went back to school. We stopped for a late afternoon/early dinner picnic. We were headed to Toledo to the Zoo the next day. Scrapbook Supplies: CTMH Tinkering

Wow!


How time flies when you're not paying attention! Guess I wasn't because it's been months since I've posted on my blog. Not sure why because I've still been scrappin'? This is one of my latests pages and done for a challenge over at sb.com.

The page idea came from the 2009-10 SU! Holiday Mini. I'm usually not good at mixing/matching various papers but this one came out good. I even painted my chipboard for this page.

Scrap Supplies: Paper Basic Grey, Misc; Stamps: CTMH Alpha; Chipboard: BG;

The Very Thought of You!

This layout was for a challenge at Scrap-Tastic!
and I love the way it came out! These pictures
are some of Brandon's Senior pictures and I love
the look, pose and colors. I'm sure there will be many more of these pages as I'd like to scrap all the proofs, I love looking at them. My girlfriend, Ida, took his pictures and all of them are awesome! He was so relaxed with her which gave us some great shots! Wow!

Can You Hear Me Now?

Brandon got a Blackberry Storm for Christmas, it's what he really wanted. It does work good for as much as he text messages! Wow! Good thing we have unlimited, of course, I find myself texting him as well, just as easy. I love this layout. It came together for the SCS Challenge so easily and I just love when that happens. All Supplies are CTMH

Snow Play!

Notice something about these picts? YUP! They're the SAME pictures just on different layouts. That's what happens when your Mom scraps a book for both boys. I was using different scraps and sketches so thats why they are different. Both pages were very fun especially since it's me getting "older" pictures done again! Woohoo! I will get all of the young pictures of the boys in scrapbooks soon. I'm finally getting started on them. It's so much harder. When you're not a scrapper, your pictures are different. These however were very fun. Makes it bittersweet because of couse, I miss my babies. What sweeties they were. Guess they still are, just bigger.

I Do It!

This weekend I worked on layouts from
"older" pictures. While it was fun, it definitely feels in some ways that time "got by me". Where did all those minutes go of either of you at this age? What happened to Barney, Poe, Buzz LightYear, Yugio....I remember when I got this FP Camera for the boys and they both wanted to take their own pictures. They're funny to look at now, off center, not lined up. It was all part of growing up - learning to do it for yourself. How independent and wonderful you both are now.

This layout came from SCS Unity Scrap Layout #4. Amy has been posting some Fun Sketches to use. I think I like her as her blog name is "Caffinated Cropper" and you all know my favorite caffeine -- COFFEE!! Thanks Amy for the inspiration.

Ramblings, thoughts, ideas, & photos from a 40-something Mom who loves to stamp & scrap

I've Arrived!

In my usual fashion, late but with a GREAT story to tell. I didn't join the bloggers of the world until now because what would I have to share, at the time, I didn't think anything...well...I've changed my mind. I do want to share with all my friends and family-- my thoughts, creations and ideas. So, welcome to my World.

We'll Live, Love and Laugh 4 Life together!

Looking out the Living Room Window I realized today was a good day to get those projects I've been putting off DONE! It was beautiful to look at but I sure didn't want to get out in it this morning! Good thing I was on vacation.
