You Rock LOAD219 Day 7

Welcome!!

I have a new layout for you today that I made for Day 7 of the LOAD219 (layout a day) challenge over at Scraphappy.  Our prompts today were to scrap about a favorite wardrobe item and/or use red and sparkle on your page.
I actually scrapped a story about how I'm a member of Stitch Fix (a company that sends out personally curated clothes and accessories monthly) and how they sent me a shirt one month that I really loved and that my new puppy, Honey, immediately chewed a hole in it.  I asked them to send it to me again and a few weeks later I got an unscheduled box with dogs toys in it and a note from them telling me that they wanted to give Honey something else to chew on instead of my new clothes!  How's that for great customer service??  It was so unexpected and sweet and I got the shirt again in my next monthly box.


This was a fun layout to do.  I like it.  I hope you do too.  Look at the photos of that little menace! lol She's a joy too.

Thanks for visiting today.  Hope to see you here again soon.  If you have a chance, I would love for you to check out my Scrappy Friends Challenge this month and maybe play along!  There is a fab prize for a randomly drawn winner!!

Until next time...happy scrapping!

Scrap Our Stash Pick Your Side Challenge

Welcome to the blog!

Today I have a layout to share that I was inspired to make by using the February  Pick Your Side Sketch Challenge at Scrap Our Stash.  I picked the sketch on the left and changed the 3 small photos to one large photo.  I also used the required striped paper and mixed alphas.


Here is the layout I made:


My goddaughter and her family having a movie night.  Those are the good memories to keep.

You need to go over to Scrap Our Stash and check out this challenge and their other challenge this month.  Let's be scrappy together!

Thanks for stopping and looking today!  Until next time...happy scrapping!

Back To Taiwan LOAD219 Day 6

Welcome Friends!!

Here we go again today with a another layout from the LOAD 219 (layout a day) challenge(Day 6) that I am doing this month.  The prompts for today are to scrap about a time you felt out of your element and/or  do an artistic technique on your layout.  I scrapped about when we were in Taiwan adopting our son and I made the watercolor background paper using Distress Oxide inks.

I really love the background paper.  It got a little out of control and filled most of the page which wasn't my initial plan but I still love it.

Twist and Spin LOAD219 Day 5

Hello friends!

I'm back here today with Day 5 of LOAD219.  I'm so happy to be doing this layout a day challenge!  It's been super fun so far and I haven't missed a day yet.  (fingers crossed) Today's prompts are to scrap a story with a twist and/or use doodles on your layout.

I used that prompt literally.  My goddaughter's daughter is actually spinning in the photos I chose to scrap.  I also doodled on the page a bit.

I'm happy with this one.  How about you?  Like it?


Don't you just love this paper?!  I think it's dreamy.  (smile)

My Happy Place #LOAD219 Day 4

Hey peeps!

Hello again.  I'm here today with LOAD219 Day 4.  Today's prompt was to scrap a place you like to hang out and/or use multiple layers of patterned paper on your layout.

This one came together really quickly and easily.  I immediately knew I would use a photo of my scrap room.  I did a zoomed in shot because my room was a mess but then I took a photo from the doorway that showed it in all its glory and I printed it small and adhered it on that tag that I have hidden under the photo.  

The really funny thing is that my friend, Rochelle, who is also doing this challenge, also scrapped her craft room and we both used the exact same title! lol  


I'm really loving doing LOAD219!  I can totally see myself doing it again.

I Am Enough LOAD219 Day 3

Hello friends!

Nice to have you visiting today.  I have been hard at work doing the LOAD219 (layout a day) over at Scraphappy.  I'm keeping up so far!!  Here is Day 3. The prompts today are to scrap a big softie in your life and/or use a soft scrapbook supply on your layout.


I actually changed part of the title from, "I am strong and I am soft" to "I am soft but I am strong".  I think that works better.  I didn't take a 2nd photo though.  

I'm really happy how it turned out.  That's the thing about doing a layout a day, I'm not always thrilled with the finished product.  They are good but not always favorites.

Thanks for visiting today.  Hope to see you here again soon.  If you have a chance, I would love for you to check out my Scrappy Friends Challenge this month and maybe play along!  There is a fab prize for a randomly drawn winner!!

Until next time...happy scrapping!

Together is the Best Place to Be

Hello my people!!

Welcome back to the blog today...consecutive blogging day #9!  woo hoo!  I'm on a roll!! lol

Since I posted a layout of a my brother yesterday it is only fair to post one of my sister (and her son) today.  Right?  (smile)

I again used a Laura Whitaker sketch (LOVE) to inspired me.  I went a little out of my comfort zone with the papers I used.  I don't usually use so many different patterns together but I honestly love how it turned out!


The photo was taken at my house on Christmas.  I always host Christmas lunch at my house.  I just love having all the family come for the holidays.  We had a really full house this year!  Yay!  Crazy but fun.

I'm glad you stopped by today.  Until next time...happy scrapping!
