Me at 15

I probably mentioned before that I keep all my scraps.... even tiny pieces. I used them to punch out small flowers, letters, or create photo corners, etc. Vicki Boutin put out this challenge to create a project using scraps. I found out about this thru Scrapbook & Cards Today. They had a special post for NSD and it included the interview with Vicki Boutin. Anyway, I can alway use challenges like that. On this page, I used pink scraps. My dd's favorite color now is the color pink. I had to trim some pieces but most of these pieces were already these sizes. Since I used scraps, the circle under the photo is not a complete circle... but you can't tell!

The Best is Yet to Come

I am a little behind posting my pages here. This title came from the song "The Best is Yet to Come" by Hinder. My dd was singing this song as she was getting ready to go to Crawfish Boil. Hinder was going to perform at the concert there. When she came home that night, she told us how much fun she had at the concert. Crawfish? No she didn't eat any. She went with her friend and that friend's parents. They stopped at a burger place on their way home... go figure! Anyway the theme for DUS 5/1 challenge is music and I created this page.

A Little Birdie Told Me - new blog

As I wrote on my previous post, my to-do list is a very long one. And I am going to add 0ne more to my scrappin to do list. I just found a new challenge blog. It is created by a group of wonderful scrappin loving Danish! It is called A Little Birdie Told Me... love the sound of it...so cute. They already have their very first challenge out. But be sure to check all the posts. They are giving away some yummy stuff!! These pics are some of them.

Our Home

I've got too much to do and so little time! I need to clean up my room, browse blogs and online gallaries, check my e-mails, pay some bills.... and most importantly I want to scrap! I really need to straighten up my room though. I left lots of stuff out all over the room over the NSD weekend. And speaking of NSD weekend, I still haven't had chance to post my layouts I made during that weekend. Hopefully this weekend I'll have some time... we'll see since it's Mother's day weekend. Here is the page I made tonight. I did this for Kiddie Lit challenge. It is a new challenge blog inspired by children's books. Their very first challenge is Wizard of Oz. They have a list of items that can be included on a layout. I used the color yellow, a rainbow, 'home', twisted ribbon, and the teeny tiny flowers. We were moving into our new home when these photos were taken.

So Dear

This is a quick post. I am working on another page and I want to browse on-line galleries for NSD creations. Here is a page done for Mother's day theme challenge on Cafe Mojo.

NSD Weekend

Hope everybody had a fun National Scrapbooking Day weekend. I have participated cyber crops and had so much fun. I will post those layouts I created over the weekend sometime this week. For this blog entry, I wanted to post a couple of pages I did tonight using sketches that Ally and Marci provided for blog hop. MyStampBox hosted a blog hop to visit their DT members' blogs and they provided card sketches and layout sketches for us to play with. I didn't have much sleep Friday night and went to bed late last night, I couldn't start today as early as I wanted to. I didn't feel like scrapping early and was catching up with browsing blogs. It was a good thing I did. Although it was already mid day when I found out about this blog hop, I was still able to do 2 tonight. The first one titled " Snoopy on Ice" was done based on Ally's sketch and the second one titled "Ghost town" was done using Marci's sketch.
