Shooting Practice - LM #428

Hello my scrappy friends!  This was the week we went back to school, just 3 days but it felt like two weeks!  So hard to wake up in the morning and go through our daily routine, but we made it to the weekend!  I slept pretty well and my kids are still sleeping at 8:15am!  So different when my daughter wakes at 5am and my son finally drags himself out of bed by 6am for showers!  Enough about sleep, if I keep talking about it, I may just go back to bed!

This week for my Guest Designer assignment at Lasting Memories, we had to use bling, buttons, brads, sequins or enamel dots for challenge #428.  On my layout, I used enamel dots, eyelets and nuvo drops.

Take a look at the challenge this week at Lasting Memories and use your stash!!  thanks so stopping by and commenting!  Have a wonderful weekend!!

Just Add Ribbon!

Hello my scrappy friends!  I hope your Christmas was great with friends, family, food and presents!!  We went to my parents house as is tradition and had a fabulous time!!

I made several different cards for Christmas this year.  Today, I'm sharing two of them for a challenge on Soul Scrappers.  Quite an easy challenge, just add ribbon!

The first card's ribbon is really ribbon, the second card is a die cut of a ribbon!  The first card is made from my scrappy stash of ribbon and paper.  The sentiment stamp is from SU! retired Hang your Stocking set.  The second card is made from cardstock patterned papers from my stash.  All of the stamps and die cuts are from SU! as well, Making Spirits Bright and Christmas Pines (not sure if this one is retired).

Thanks for stopping by and commenting!  Have a fantastic night!!

Good Cheer

Hello my scrappy friends!!  I finally finished a layout I've had on my desk for a few weeks.  Just haven't found the time to scrap like I've wanted.  I used lots of scraps, ink all around, twine, punches, ink splatters, and my Cricut for the title (Base Camp cartridge).

These pictures are of my daughter in 2014 under our Christmas tree, decorating it with her ornaments.  We were pretty late in the season for buying a tree so she was quite eager to hang everything she could on it!  We had such a fun time!

I'll be entering my LO into the following blog challenges:

Rochelle Spears December Paper/Sketch challenge
If you click on the above link, you'll be taken to Rochelle's blog to view the sketch that is to be used, along with snowflake patterned paper.

Scrap with Stacy: Scrappy Friends challenge

Christmas 2009

Hello my scrappy friends!  Here is a LO I created at the beginning of the month but just put the journaling on it today.  I used lots of scraps for the snowflakes and tried inking them but they still don't stand out very well.  There isn't even a title but the pictures are great and I love them!!  I have so many other pictures from this Christmas, I'm sure those layouts will be better.

Lasting Memories - #421, Using watercolors, paints, and/or misting.  I used misting and sprays and drops of ink.







Have a great evening, thanks for stopping by and commenting!

Enjoy Today

Happy Thanksgiving my scrappy friends!  I hope you had a wonderful holiday yesterday, ate too much food and were able to find some great deals when shopping today!!

Here is a double LO of my son's 11th birthday party with some friends.  I was inspired by a few online blog challenges for the sketch, embellishments and journaling.

Scrap with Stacy - Song Inspiration, "Thank You'" by Led Zepplin.  I used the words smiles, smile and happiness on my LO and in my journaling.





Lasting Memories - Stamping - Use two or more...I used two different stamps, stamped three times...a stitched and solid star, both from CTMH.



Let's Scrap - Sketch 11/15 - I loved this sketch but my LO got away from me a bit!  At least the pictures are in the correct spots, just switched the pages.



Scrap Our Stash - Golden Globe Inspired - Use stars and quote.  My stars are stamped and the quote is on the bottom of the first page.




Thanks for stopping by and commenting!  Have a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend!
