Tuckered out!

I have a layout that I want to share, but my camera battery died! So instead, I'll put up this picture of my kids. I had a card class on Sunday (my first one, and I think it went pretty well!) and while I was out with the car for the afternoon, Jason decided to walk downtown with the kids to the rink. Nolan skated, and Ailis got signed up for her...

2 Challenges In One!

Wow, I am so stoked that my last layout received 5 comments!!!!! Now I am so motivated that I decided to try not only another color challenge at SPCC, but a layout challenge at Scrapsketch as well.So it took me a while to find some pictures to go along with the SPCC color challenge. Originally I wanted to find some fall pictures. But, failing that,...

SPCC Color Challenge #16

So I finally have my first follower! Yay! And it's somebody I don't even know, so of course I had to check her out, and lo and behold, she holds a colour challenge every week. Pretty cool, I know! (If you click my little SPCC blinkie, you can check out Samantha's site.) So of course, I had to return the favour and become a follower, and this...

First Card Workshop

I am so excited to be able to do my first workshop next weekend! All of my original plans for this workshop went up in smoke when my September Stamp of the Month set did not arrive with my last order (what happened????? Did I forget to click the right box on my order?) Well, being the true professional that I am (hahaha!), I just came up with these...

Mojo Monday 104

I'm not sure why it took me soooooo long to do this card, and then actually post it. I think I probably missed the Mojo Monday deadline! It's been a pretty hectic week. I was called in for five days of work at three different schools, doing five different jobs. Crazy! But the good news is, I got a posting at my son's school, so I should be able...

An Easter Page?

Of course it's late in the year for an Easter page, but I just finished it! I like to scrapbook a little randomly these days. Anyway, this is a page for Ailis, and I really love how the blue Easter eggs pop on the page. And I know the title says "everyday LIFE", and this isn't an every day occurrence, but I still had to use that journaling spot,...

You Go, Girl!

I had the story written down for this picture ages ago, it just took this long to actually get the photo printed and then down on paper. This is my daughter Ailis, and she's 4 years old. She's also a real girly girl princess. The journaling tells how she was watching a nature show with her brother and her dad, and how the narrator said that caves...

Mojo Monday 102

Well, this card did not turn out at all like I had hoped! Does that ever happen to you, where you're just going along, and then, hey, that doesn't work, and that's not going to fit. The card base was just too small to fit the images I wanted. I didn't give up, though, and this is how it ended up. I AM happy with the colors! They were inspired...
