Better late then never...

...Right?

Sorry I haven't uploaded my latest projects for the September kit for Scrappy Chics. I had a four day weekend this last weekend and I spent every day sicker than sick.

So here are my projects...and unfortunately, this months kit is all sold out. It was a fabulous one!!



Yes, my little guy is a first grader. I love how the embellishments worked so well with the school theme.







My fearless little girl. She loves to show the big kids that she can do it, too! This line of paper from Crate Paper is one of my most favorites. I love all of the girly papers, but the crossword paper is the best!!





Our happily ever after...I love this one. I love the random pictures of me and my family that blend so well with the papers in the kit.





I've been wanting to make a memory box for Bekah's baby stuff. I was just waiting for the perfect line of paper. I told ya I loved this line!! I just used an ordinary photo box and embellished it. I haven't gotten to the inside yet, but I plan on decorating that, too.







Thanks for visiting my blog. I have some wedding pictures that I will be sharing in a few days. My kidlets got to participate in their first ever wedding. And darn it, they looked cute :)

growing up.

It's official, I have a first grader. I don't know how it happened. One minute he was a cute, cuddly baby boy and now he's a know it all first grade boy!! Where did the time go?

Gavin was very excited for first grade. I think he was mainly excited to see his friends that he missed over the summer. While his first day (and week) wasn't all that he expected, I think he'll do just fine this year.

Friday night he did cry about missing his teacher from last year. Mr. S was an awesome teacher and even I miss having him teach Gavin. More teachers need to be like him :)

I completely forgot to post my layout I did for Scrap that Baby! Its a mixture of Crate Paper and Basic Grey. I love, love, LOVE the airplane from CP.

"Just one more pink cupcake..."

If you are not familiar with the book Pinkalicious, its about a girl who loves pink. She loves pink so much, that she eats way too many pink cupcakes and turns herself red.



All together now, "OH NO, NOT RED!!!" Pinkalicious is Bekahs most favorite book. She loves all of the Pinkalicious books (Purplicious, Goldilicious and Silverlicious) but Pinkalicious is THE book.



The new prompt is up at Scrap that Baby and this time its all about reading.



I got inspiration for this layout from her. She is fabulous...I love all of her work!! I used some Basic Grey and Crate Paper in this one.



I did a lot of fussy cutting on this layout. I love the look of fussy cutting, I just don't like doing it!



Thanks for stopping by! Tomorrow I should have the new Scrappy Chics reveal up :)

lucky

I love my little leprechaun!! Isn't he cute?



I made this layout for the new challenge at Scrap that Baby! I used some goodies from my March kit from Scrappy Chics.

I can't wait to show you more of what I've been working on!!!

March

March's kit at Scrappy Chics is full of Crate Paper and Basic Grey!! I love this kit and had so much fun with it.

Here's what I did...




This first LO is of Bekah and her messy fudgsicle. There wasn't much purple in the papers so I stitched a border around the paper using purple thread.



This LO of Gavin is done using one of my most favorite pictures of him. I didn't really even have a plan for this one, just started laying stuff on the page.



This last LO is just a random LO of Bekah and myself. It's my take on this sketch.





Be sure to order your March kit from Scrappy Chics. I hear she only has a few left!!
Thanks for looking :)
