Baby Shower

A cousin of mine is having a baby in a month or so. I made a sock corsage for her and this card to go with the other gift. :)





And here is the corsage. I made one for a friend of mine a few months ago, that looks pretty much the same... ;)



And yes, it's 3:30am and I just finished these 2 projects...LOL But I didn't get started until sometime around 12am LOL

That time of year

Yep, it's once again, that time of year. Time to pull out the sand bags and stack'em up high. Tropical Storm Erin left a pretty mark on my area today, but she got us all geared up to get ready for Dean out there drifting towards the Gulf. 2 years ago when Katrina hit, she got us all scared and running when Rita came. Thank goodness, cause it knocked over all kinds of trees in our yard. But thanks to the Good Lord no trees were on our house. Just smack dab up against it. lol So now with Hurricane Dean coming this way....I'm nervious, worried and scared. I don't want to go through that again. It was really terrible. It wasn't fun being so far away from home not knowing if your home is still there or not or having to pack up all the pictures and clothes.

Layouts from 8-5-07

This first one is a favorite of mine! She was just 10 1/2 months old here. And just way toooooo cute!!! ;)

I love these pictures. It was Christmas day, Ryan was riding his new bike and she was sporting around her new outfit and shoes. LOL Reminds me of Cinderella losing her shoe...lol

Simply cute! ;)

This one has snaps on it that Mary gave me as a RAK. :)

Happy Birthday!

I hope my dear best friend is having a great relaxing day! Happy Birthday Mary!!!!

A Little Sneek Peek

A little sneeky peeky for Halloweeny.

Halloween Cards

Well, they are in the making. I haven't gotten a layout made up for them just yet. But it's coming along. I'm glad I started early....LOL

Tonights Card

I decided to make a card tonight... I'm sending it to my Great Aunt. :) Here's a pic with and without the flash.

Jump Start on Halloween

I think over the weekend I'll get started on my Halloween cards. Yesterday I went to Hobby Lobby and bought lots of Orange and Black paper. :) It's just about that time, dont'cha think? And then after that it will be Christmas Card making time. YAY!

Not so Scrappy

I haven't felt very scrappy for a few weeks now. I need to dive in and scrap something!!!!

My super cool best friend RAK'ed me yesterday. :) I got all kinds of cool goodies! I can't wait to use'em up. :)

Thanks Mary!!!!!

Go to her blog and click on the month of June and you can see pics of her store. OMG, aren't they awesome!!!??!!!

new today....

So here's my little project from this afternoon. This is for a friend of mine. :)

Saturday's Page

Here's the page I made at Kim's on Saturday. :) I cut out some paper flowers for another layout but I didn't finish it since I didn't have my ink with me. ;)

Present Time

Bday was on the 4th but today I met up with my mom and Great Aunt. And here's my loot:

Love my new digital picture frame!!!! Thank you Mama! She remembered I said I'd like to have one of these!


And OMG my great aunt totally picked up on what I've been wanting!!!! She gets brownie points this year!

Yay for Birthdays!

So tomorrow is my birthday! Yep, a firecracker girl here! ;)

My honey took me to Hobby Lobby this evening to gather up my birthday presents. I had a grand time. And the kids were perfectly wonderful while I shopped. There was one thing I couldn't get.... some eyelets, dangit!!! They JUST had to be on sale this week and be out of them, huh? lol

OHHHH MY GOSH!

haha!

Hey Mary, we're a hot mess tonight, don'tcha think?

Another for tonight

Yay me, I'm on a roll. :) OMG, I just LOOOOOOVE these pictures of Saira. She was the most cutest smiling baby EVER! And ever since she got that baby, she's been toteing around babies. Yep, my lil' mama!!!! :)

Sorry about the flash all over the page.

Yay, I did it!

Check it out, I finally came up with something. :)

Figures, huh?

So it seems I can't get my creative juices flowing now that I cleaned up and reorginzied my room. This really stinks. LOL I've been looking at these group of pictures on my table since midnight last night and can't figure out what to do with them. Can't decide on what papers. Someone needs to come mess my room up a little. Maybe that will help.

;)

Yay! A Scrap Room

I'm slowly getting my den turned into a scrap room. All I need is an amoire and I should be good to go. I'd really like to have a new computer desk. Something smaller, less bulkier. But, I think I'll be ok with what I have. I'm trying to aim for a non-crafty looking room. Since this is the den and it's in plan sight through the house. The fireplace is in here too. BTW, which is really in the way...LOL

So here's what I did today. I tossed out the old dvd, vcr and stereo from the entertainment center. Then I cleaned it all up and then put all my supplies and albums on the shelves of my new scrap 'center'. LOL I cleaned up my desk, got rid of all the clutter. I have clutter spots all over...LOL So I'm clutter free.





That's not all my stuff though...lol Everything is still in my MM Rolling Tote.

First Cards...

Last weekend I made my first cards. This is one of them. I didn't get a picture of the other one, but my friend is going to take a picture of it for me. :) I was really happy with the way this one turned out. :)

Totally Love it!

These 2 I made while I waited for 2 o'clock to come around, for the Stampin' Up workshop. :) These 2 were my first LO's using my acrylic stamps.





These I made at my Stampin' Up Workshop yesterday evening. Mary, you know you'd be in that one too, but we're totally not together to take pics....LMAO ;) We could've rigged one up though, huh? ;)

Something New...

Here's a new one! My friend Nina came over and we cropped for a little while. I only managed to get one done....LOL

TGFC

Thank Goodness For Crops

LOL!!! Today I went to a friends house to crop. I got 4 great LO's made. I'll get pictures taken of them soon to share! I can't wait to show them off! :)

2 from Today

Here are two I did today.... They aren't finished yet. I still need to title them. The first one will be titled "Up to No Good". Chad thought of that as he was looking at it and I said, Yep that's what I'm going to title it. He probably thought I was weird...LOL Don't know about the pink one. Any idea's?

Been Scrappin'

Yay! I've done a few layouts in the last couple of weeks.....

So Here goes!

Sick!

That's got to be it, I must be sick or something. I can't believe it, I haven't scrapbooked in a month. ACK!!!! What's wrong with me. Boy howdy, I've shopped though....I've ordered pictures left and right. I have TOO many pictures now. My photo box is buldging...lmao!!! And I have pics from an event that still needs to be ordered. I better get the move on, cause summer vacation is coming around the corner. Literally, next weekend....LOL....it starts.

I have other pics I need to upload though. :)

Some newer stuff

Don't like the picture of this layout. :( But at least it looks good in person, right? :) It's of Ryan's 4th birhtday. It was a Finding Nemo party.

And this is Ryan's 3rd birthday. It was a Spongebob party.

This is my new fav!!! It's of Saira when she was like 1 or 2 weeks old. It was her first outing, we had gone to my grandpa's house for a visit/birthday party for my aunt. She was actually in my aunts lap, laying longways, instead of across the lap. I turned it into a b&w and texturized it.

Sunday Crop

So here are my layouts that I did today! :)





These next two are my favorites!!! Chad loves them too of course, he's most proud of them. :)

Fun Party!

Today was great! I had 6 great friends over today to join me for a 'Get Together' with Creative Memories. I had 2 girls that had never scraped before. They did great. They bought ALOT of stuff and they are going to become my new croppers with me. :) I'm real excited about that. We had a brunch before we started. So therefore I got up extra early to cook for my friends. We pigged out. YUMMM!! I managed to make 4 layouts in 4 hours. Yay me! :) I'll have pics to post later. :)

Hmmm, I've lost my scraping mood. I gotta go find it. I have so much to do. I think I've just been to tired to do any scraping or something. I dunno!?!

Keep a look out though. I'm gonna get a layout done real soon!! :) I hope before the 18th. That's my Creative Memories Get Together.

Challenge #24

Challenge #24 at scrapgalaxy is to blog about one of our graduations from school. So here goes.It was 8th grade graduation. It was the year of the Gulf war. We didn't wear caps and gowns. Just really pretty dresses. About 15 kids from 8th grade joined the Choir. I was one of them, along with my best friend. As far as I can remember, we only sang one song. It was dedicated to the men and women who were in the war, as well as our parents and teachers. We sang "Wind Beneath My Wings". I don't believe there was a dry eye in the house. And now every single time I hear that song, I always remember my 8th grade graduation, and us singing our hearts out. We did a beautiful job.

Awww, her 1st!

On Tuesday, a friend of mine came over to scrapbook with me. Saira likes to watch me when I scrap. Well, she kept asking for a piece of paper. And my friend started giving her all kinds of paper. Little 8x8's, little scraps and a couple of sheets of 12x12. I gave her a glue stick that I've never used. Can't stand glue sticks. And I gave her 2 wallet size pictures of Ryan, that I had already scrapbooked. And so later in the evening she showed me this. I helped her 'journal'. I held her hand to help her write out the date and Ryan's name. I bet she'll grow into the next Ali Edwards. So here's a picture of her layout. She did gooooooood, didn't she?!?! ;)

Tonights Creations

Here are my creations that I made tonight. I'm really proud of them. I especially love the pictures of me and Chad. :)

Today's Work

Today I made my first layouts for the year...LOL I did 7. :) Yay me!! And here's some pic's to look at. Some I'm proud of, some I'm not. But it's all good!
