It's A Scrappy Evening!

I had time tonight to finish up a layout I started a couple weeks ago. I love when they're done! This paper is SO FUN to play with! I'm wishing I had more Halloween pages to scrap but will have to stretch my creativity and use it with other pictures as it's just SO cute. Not to mention my youngest DS Favorite color is Orange ... it's perfect! Supplies: CTMH Hooligans Paper, CTMH Hooligans Stick Ease, CTMH Ink Sunset, Pear and Gypsy, CTMH Stamps Classmate Alpha

Oh Yeah, New Goodies!

FedEx showed up at my door early this week but
I challenged myself to wait until this weekend to open the box and finish up some past projects. Well....I almost made it, Wednesday is close, right? LOL! Today was such a snowy, blowy day it just seemed like a good time to open the box. Oohhh...wow! The new CTMH Wings papers are SO BEAUTIFUL! I just had to play. I used the sketch at Sketch Saturday and my new paper and CTMH Find Your Style stamps. Ooo-La-La...I like it! Supplies: CTMH Paper Wings CB, CTMH Stamps Find Your Style, CTMH Chipboard, CTMH Opaques

Good Times...Shared!

Tonight I actually had time to complete the Sassy Lil' Sketch Challenge for this week. Unfortunately, my Cricut has quit working...it just won't power up so I had to get creative to get a title and some embellishment on this page. Stamps, sparkles and doodles will have to do for now. Supplies: CTMH Evensong Paper, CTMH Stamps Magical Season, Doodle Alphabet, CTMH Holiday Tags

Thanks!

We're gearing up here for another Major Winter Storm so I'm in a "snow" kind of mood however the H2H Challenge was for the colors Pear, Sky and Colonial White. That led to a more "Spring" kind of card but that's ok because this card is going south and I needed a Thank You Card. Just what I needed! It's a perfect mix of old and new because the corner punch, little heart and paper are older and the embossing folder, ribbon and stamps are new. This cute sketch came from SCS Viva la Verve Sketch Challenge for this week. Supplies: CTMH CS Sky, Pear, Miracle DSP, CTMH Stamps A Little Thanks, CB Emboss Folders, CTMH Embellishments

Scrappin' This Weekend

Woohoo, had some time to finish some scrap layouts this weekend. Of course, I started with some of my favorite picts from the holiday. LOL! Brand, what a character. I was so surprised when he came home with this crazy holiday tee shirt. Not his usual style but definitely cute and fun. He had a great time at the Christmas parties he went to and it was fun to see Nick. The layout came from a sketch from the new Sketch Support Blog. This is also my first layout for my friend Cheryl's Even More Scrapping Blog 52 Week Friday Challenge. She was inspired by our friend Jen (her blog Jen's Jewel Box). So I'm joining them and going to try to upload a scrap layout every Friday. 1 down, at least 51 to go...Fun, Fun! Supplies: CTMH Evensong Papers, CTMH Holiday Tags, CTMH Color Ready Hodge Podge Alpha Stickers, CTMH Rub Ons

Snow Days!

This week and next we're supposed to have snow every day! Wow! I was so surprised when we got 5 more inches of snow Friday night. It just suddenly started coming down heavy. I'm going to have to pay attention to the weather. The nice part about that is that it's pretty when you're home and watching it out the window. Today was a good day to just get stuff done at home and enjoy some scrap and stamp time. When I saw this stamp, I knew I wanted to use it this weekend. It was just what I needed to complete the Mojo Monday 172 Challenge. Also had fun using up scraps from my Aspen pack of paper.

Happy New Year!

Woohoo, welcome 2011! I am looking for it to be another crafty year...hoping for more consistency. This last year seem to have some "crazy spots" for work and I hope to have those evened out this year. I think I'll be better prepared, at least that's what I'm hoping. Although, life has a way a throwing a curve or 2... I was planning to spend last evening making some cards and only got to finish up 1 because BR announced he had to leave back for college at 0700! I had been planning to leave about 1600 so this was quite a change. Fortunately, I was able to finish up my card AND get him packed up for his return to OU. This card is for MOJO171. It's also for my first upload for our January Challenge to be crafty daily. I only had time for a card BUT it was fun to get it done. I used the CTMH Acrylic Cards. Happy New Year! Here's to more fun stamping and scrapping for 2011! Supplies: CTMH Holiday Fun, CTMH Magnifique Paper, CTMH Acrylic Card, Staz On Timber Brown Ink, Stickles, CTMH Sparkles
