Birth Minute - 16 years old

Hello my scrappy friends!

I finished this LO a week or so ago but never posted, not sure why?!?  Anyway here is it!  My son's 16th birth minute!  Since he was born in August, I get to take these birth minute pictures often.  My poor daughter isn't so lucky...her birthday is in May, most often she is in school.

I grabbed a stencil from STAMPlorations Dots and Dashes  and a stamp from SU! Balloon Adventures.  My papers are all scraps and PL cards.  I used Lily Bee Design letter stickers for the title, and a little bit of thread from my grandmother's house.

I'll be entering my layout into the Lasting Memories blog challenge #478 - Anything Goes.   You have a few more day s to enter as Saturday 2/1/20 is the deadline.

STAMPlorations is also hosting a challenge this month using stencils.   Use any of their stencils on your project and enter it here to win!  You can also enter your project into their Never Ending Anything Goes Challenge.

Promises

Hello my scrappy friends!  I hope the beginning of 2020 is being kind to you.  So far so good for me!  

Here is a layout I created being inspired by Lasting Memories challenge #479, using a new technique, tool or product.  I used new to me letter stickers and stamps.  This challenge lasts until the end of the month she you have plenty of time to enter!!

I'm also jumping into the challenge at Festive Friday #FF0050, using at least three items from the inspiration list.  I've used rainbow (different colored circle stamps), button (on car), and die cuts (circles, zebra, car and title).

Here is my daughter a few years ago after we recently pulled onto the driveway.  Apparently it was a beautiful day and she wanted to finish her book!  Maybe we were going to go to the library to get her another book, rather then just coming home, since it looks like she is almost finished reading the book!  Doesn't really matter, I just love that she loved to read all of the time.  At 15 years old currently, I did she her reading a book yesterday after she finished her homework.  A snack and a book, doesn't get much better!!

Stick It Down - Turn Up the Heat

Hello my scrappy friends!!!!  Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!  I hope everyone is having a wonderful season with family, friends and hopefully not too much work!!

Today I'm entering my double page LO into Stick It Down's double page sketch challenge for this month.  You have just one more day to enter!  As I'm looking at the sketch and my page, apparently I totally forgot to add pp to the second page!  Opps!  Guess that's what happens when you create a page over a few days during the Christmas holiday!  In any event, I love the way this two pager turned out.  Anytime I can get pictures of my daughter dancing and being funny is a great day!

Thanks for commenting!  Happy New Year!  I hope and pray for a wonderful 2020 for all!

Merry Christmas my scrappy friends!!  Hope all of you are getting into the spirit and all of your shopping is completed!!  I've had all of my gifts ordered and bought two weeks ago...still need to wrap everything!

Festive Friday!

Hello my scrappy friends!!

Here is a card I made for my sister and brother-in-law's anniversary.  It'll be 12 years of wedded bliss for them...with two girls!

Festive Friday blog challenge was my muse this week!

My three items from the inspiration list include:  button, scraps and the color green!  Not that these colors were even close to their wedding colors (closer to my other sister's colors, of course!), but I'm sure they will like it anyway!!



This challenge is open until Monday, November 2019, 8pm.  You have plenty of time to upload your creation!

Thanks for stopping by and commenting!!
