Don't forget...all papers and elements can be found on Vicki's Blog!

365:Week 3

Here's week 3 still using the same kit.

Project 365:Week 2

Project 365 - Week 1

Well, here's my first week's layout. I'm using Vicki's Kit and I love it! Can't wait to see what she comes up with for February's layouts! I think the hardest thing besides remembering to take a picture every day is going to be sticking with the same color palette for the year. I really don't have a good attention span and grow bored easily no matter how great kits are. I'm glad there'll be a new one each month to keep me interested and full of ideas.

Project 365

Yup, that's what it's called. Project 365. Take a picture a day for the next year and then scrap a layout for each week. Just the thought of it is kind of overwhelming me! I've decided that I don't really need to take a pic EVERY day. I know it's an unreachable goal. I'll take a few pics or so each week that summarizes that week and do a ONE page layout for each week. That's 52 pages...hmmm...we'll see. Maybe I'll merge some weeks together...lol. Here's my title page I did with Vicki's Kit "Calendar Collection - January". She's going to have a kit each month so I'll be using them since they're each using the same color palette.

Forever Love...

Here's my birthday gift to my future daughter-in-law Kim. A couple years ago I purchased a Creative Memories Every Day Display where she can display photo's or scrapbook pages that I usually made for her. My son Travis recently said she's really like a new page to display so I took a pic of the two of them that I took on Thanksgiving and created a new digi page for her to display.


Ingredients: Digi paper by Cosmo Cricket "Early Bird" which was purchase on Jessica Sprague's website. The font is "Pea Picky Panda".

Here's a second entry in the Polka Dot Plum "Perfect Picnic" Kit contest with Persnickity Prints...

SS Sketch Challenge - Week 33

This layout has a few elements from Tropical Popsicle by Peppermint Creative but the papers and most of the elements are from Color Me Happy by Jennifer Labre Designs. The sketch was from the Scrapbooks, Etc. website. I use CM SBC+ software to do all my digital scrapping. The pics are Jessy on vacation...

Digi Recipe Page - Beer Margaritas

Mmmmm...Beer margaritas! Another page to put in my recipe scrapbook. I'm slowly collecting recipes to put together for the kids.

School's almost out!

Well, it's June and school's almost out. Jessy is almost done with 7th grade FOREVER. I was always hoping that my baby would never grow up but I'm just going to have to face the fact that it's going to happen just like with the other two. I'm feeling so old lately! Here's a couple layout that I did for Jessy. One is with her besty and the other is a mish mosh of 7th grade...

This first layout is using a template from a blog Brenda Mc? I ran across...can't remember right now and the papers and elements are from Scraps of Ellay "Fayries".

This template was a freebie from Creative memories. The layout is a total mismatch of kits...Misty Cato Designs "Chatty" & Sweet Blossom Designs "Let it Rock" & Creative Memories Freebies. I'm sure there's more but I forget...

SS Sketch Challenge #14 - Braces

Yup...Jessy got braces and she's NOT thrilled about it!

Ingredients: All elements are Summertime Designs "Boy Oh Boy".

Me and Barb - Sketch Challenge #3 round 2

Another shot at Scrapshare Sketch Challenge #3 using Creative Memories Cottage Garden Kit. I know I use it alot but I love all the earth tones and flourishes. It's probably one of my favorite kits.

A Glimpse of Toby...

Our beloved family dog was hit by a car last week and passed on. Luckily it was instant and he didn't suffer. He was 11 years old and was starting to get sick so maybe it saved him from suffering in the long run? I don't know...I guess we'll always be trying to put a spin on it to make it easier to deal with such a tragic loss. I was scrapping these pictures of me and Jessy and came across the one where Toby got in the picture to lick our faces and had to include them because it totally captures his personality!

Ingredients: Papers: Summertime Designs - Golden Sunshine and Shabby Princess - Winter Wonderland.

Elements: Shabby Princess - Winter Wonderland.

More March Layouts

Dennis and I took Jessy and her friends bowling at Leda's Lighthouse in Nashua, NH. We were really excited to go and even met Travis there to bowl with us. Turns out we don't really like bowling and are incredibly bad at it! Oh well...live and learn.

This first layout is of Jessy and her friends (names covered for blog posting). It was such a cute pick, I gave it it's own layout.
