Scrapshare retreat

I had the best weekend at a scrapbooking retreat in Jackson NH...yes, it's the same one I went to last year. Got quite a few layouts done, as well as a book for my upcoming trip to Mexico in the spring! Thinking ahead...something new for me. I'll try to upload some pictures soon of my weekend...great folliage, nice weather and good friends...what more could a girl want?

Some new layouts from the crop yesterday

My friend Beth hosted an all day crop yesterday, so I got a few layouts done. Fairly productive day!




Cosmo Cricket papers and sticker.



Loved the above papers, but forgot who produces it...sorry. If/when I figure it out, I will update.



This is Bo-Bunny Paper...so pretty.


The above is Close to My Heart papers and dimensional elements.

This was made from a page kit from Story Tellers that I've had hanging around for awhile.

First day of School Part 1

Today my daughter had her first day of high school...Yupp she's a freshman. The summer, in spite of the rain has flown by. Part 2- My son's first day starts tomorrow...

So, I've heard one set of first day impressions and events and can't wait for tomorrows. Here's to hoping they both have a fun and successful year!

Time to start posting again!

OK...Inky Paws site has a challenge that I want to take part in...so here is my card
I created this using Cardstock and Glitter paper from DCWV (purple and yellow) and white daisy cardstock from Close to My Heart. The stamp set is Nursery Bash from Close to My Heart. I colored with Copic markers: Y38, E07, E08, V17

Does anyone remember what the Sun looks like?

Ok seriously now...I think it has rained part of every day for the last month. We have seen the sun...it comes out for an hour here and there and gives us a tease, but then the clouds come back...and with the clouds comes the rain. So, I'm ready for a couple of sunny days.

I have been talking with a friend from high school, that I haven't seen in 25+ years. So, my memories have been flooding back, and what I realize most, is that I don't have any pictures of that time...outside of my yearbooks. Not sure if my mom does or not. I wish I had been a scrapbooker back then!

So my challenge to you is to find some pictures of yourself from Way back when...and get to work remembering the good times you had...and looking back at who and where you were then to who and where you are now!

Duck Card- Isn't he the most adorable??

Created using Magic Moments B&T paper and Dutch Blue Cardstock from CTMH. Stamp set is also Close to My Heart. I colored it with Copic markers.
