Sweet Girl

 Hello my scrappy friends!  I've been working for the past 5 months full time even though I'm a substitute secretary!  Little crazy but the money is a nice bonus as our son will be going off to college as a freshman in August...so crazy it has happened so fast!  I have a few cards and LOs I hope to add to my blog and online challenges since I've found some time this afternoon to post!

Up first, my daughter at 3 months old and my sister during my son's 2nd birthday party in 2004.  I used Lasting Memories #547, Color Inspiration #2 challenge.

 LM #547 - Color Inspiration #2 - create a layout and use the following colors on your layout. Neutral colors (black, white, and kraft) are always welcome!

 

 

I found the perfect pps and colors to match my daughter's dress...and this challenge!   This challenges is open for another week, you should check it out!

Napping with Doggie

Hello my scrappy friends!  Happy iNSD weekend!  I didn't get as many LO's completed as I wanted, not that I had a number since I'm a pretty slow scrapper, especially when home.  I did get two LO's completed yesterday so I'm happy...I did lots of other house things throughout the day too!

 My sweet girl from years ago, no idea of the year but before 5th grade since that is the last time she had that sweatshirt!  I think she wasn't feeling well this day and her cheeks do look a little red so I'm thinking fever.  Doesn't matter now, just look how cute she is napping on the couch with her trusted doggy.

This LO was inspired by Rochelle Spears May sketch challenge and Stacy's Tic-Tac-Toe challenge.

I love this sketch, just different from what I usually create!  And the tic-tac-toe board is fantastic!  I used the first column, polka dots (stencil)-stickers-(flowers)-banner.  My stencil dots are Tim Holtz dot fade and the flowers stencil are STAMPlorations blossoming mini.

I love how this LO was created!  Kinda different for me but but I love using my supplies and being inspired by some challenges.

Yessss

Hello my scrappy friends!

I created this LO of my kids playing with some brand new water guns years ago!  They played for hours so many days and for years.  Now that they are older, if they are in the pool together or with friends, these guns come out!  Of course, I can't take pictures of them and their friends...not cool mom!

 

I played with my Tim Holtz Distress Oxides and water....soooo much fun!!  I used various stamps from STAMPlorations and the sketch is from Lasting Memories #543.  

Thanks for stopping by and commenting!  Have a lovely day!

Oh Shoot!

 Hello my scrappy friends!  It's been a while since I've posted or really created anything.  Feels good to be back this weekend!

I created this LO for two blog challenges:  Scrap Our Stash April Sketch and Lasting Memories #542, Word Play.  

 

 

I found a box kit with album and papers and embellishments, unopened, in my stash...so I opened it and started looking for pictures. Two pictures here, both of my son, in 2013 and 2016, learning to shoot a pistol and a rifle.  I'm amazed at how much he grew in 3 short years, from a kid to a young teen.

I used the sketch from Scrap Our Stash, and must use an arrow, and an ingredients challenges using the work EASTER from Lasting Memories.  The ingredients I used were: E-extreme sport, embellishments; A-arrows; S-stickers; T-tags; E-ephemera; R-red.   Here is the sketch:

Explore Nature

 Hello once again my scrappy friends!  I've finally completed this LO...it's been sitting on my desk for weeks.  Just never could get it together to finish...too tired, running out, who needed me for something...cleaning and cooking!

I used this fantastic sketch from Scrap Our Stash, March 2021 Sketch Design.  I loved the use of washi tape since I have so much, I only used a little, but a little is better then none!  I opted for 3 pictures rather then the four indicated on the sketch but my three work fine!

 

My layout:

I added some stenciling, embossing, inking and stamping!  My desk was a complete disaster!...but it was fun creating!

 

Thanks for stopping by and commenting.  You have until Monday, 3/29 to enter your LO!

Just a note

Hello my scrappy friends!

One of my brothers-in-law birthday is this week so naturally I made a card!  Think I missed the mail today so it may be late but I don't think he will mind!

I was inspired by Sketch-N-Scrap's card sketch #189.

 My card....

Quick and easy card but so nice! Love being able to use several scraps!  Check out Sketch-N-Scrap's blog for more challenges!  You have till the end of the month to enter.

Enjoy your day!
