We're sexy and we know it!

Ha! Ha!  Did I get your attention!

I'm back today to share a page I actually started in 2013.  Yup, like September maybe?!  It's been so long, way too long!  I finally finished it back in December.   

The photos take us back to May 2012.  We were on our way back from dropping off my mother-in-law after visiting my father-in-law in the hospital.  It's a tight squeeze in the back seat, so when my MIL tags along, I usually huddle in the back with the kids.  And so here we are, the back seat drivers singing our little hearts out to "I'm Sexy and I Know It".  Such silliness always ends up on the iPhone!


Most of the products I used for this page comes from a Studio Calico kit.  I used lots of Jillibean Soup alphas and cut outs from my stash.  I also used a Pagemaps sketch to guide my inspiration! 

Hope you like it!

My Girl's Birthday Party

Good afternoon!

Well, I do believe this is my first post for 2014!  Oh my!  Life is full on amazing adventures and I'm living it day in, day out with my little family!! I thought I'd catch up on here over the next few days, weeks and share with some of those adventures. 

My baby girl turned 9 this month.  Wow!  I can't believe she's growing up so fast!  She's full of spunk, stubbornness and she has a heart the size of the world!  She's turning into one fine little lady.  We are so proud of her!  I love planning birth parties for her.  She makes it so simple!  Her birthday cake this year.... are you ready?  An apple crisp!  Yup, apple crisp!  It didn't go over well with all of the friends, but my girl was super excited about it!  

We decided to play with photo props for some bday fun!  I found a printable online from BigDotOfHappiness.com.  It was the perfect thing!  We cut them out and blinged them out!  We had so much fun making them and the girls had a fabulous time playing with them.





It was certainly a birthday to remember!

Stay tune for more from me.  I'll be sharing some scrapbooking pages I've done lately!

Thanks for stopping by!

Hello!

Hey everyone,

It's been so long since I've taken the time to share anything with you.  It's been a very busy, hectic, full of ups and downs this year.  I certainly won't take you through everything from this past year... we'd be here forever!!

I thought I'd share a few projects I have managed to start and finish!!  Only a couple, but I did it!!  This first one was started back in September.  I host a crop and thought I'd join in with the ladies and create a little.  I got to start the layout there, but didn't get to finish it.   Time passed, and we hosted another crop.  Thought to myself, "Hey, lets try to scrap with the ladies again!".  So I did!  I completed the first layout and manage to make a second!!  Yahoo!!  Both of the layouts are based on the same Pagemaps sketch.   I really enjoy creating with their sketches!

Here's the sketch:
August 2013 

Here's the first layout I completed based on the sketch.


Lot of Jillibean Soup on this one!!  You know me and my Soup!  I can't get enough!!  I love the Chilled Cucumber Collection.  It's one of my favorites.

Here's my second layout.


I finally used one of the Studio Calico monthly kits for this layout.  I don't remember which one.  Sorry.  I have so many I haven't used, I kind of threw all the kits on the table and started picking at different things to make the layout.

Hopefully, the pictures are not to blurry for you.  I used my iPhone to take the pictures, as I couldn't find the big camera.

I did start a third layout at the last crop.  It needs a little attention, I think.  I'm hoping to be able to finish it this weekend and share it with you soon!  Stay tuned!

Thanks for stopping by today.  I hope you find inspiration to create something amazing!

LCOM Sketch Reveal!

Good morning!

I don't know about you, but here in the Maritimes, it's a little cold... like, freezing cold!  You'd thing we were in the middle of winter!!!  I just saw a frost warning for the Island!  Whut????? You'd never guess it was the middle of May!!  We'll still enjoy it.  It's a long weekend!!  What's not to love about that!!

While, we're off to birthday parties, gymnastics and the usual Saturday errands, take time to enjoy this week's reveal at Let's Capture Our Memories.  We have the most talented design team!!  Here is this week's sketch, designed by yours truly! :)


Here's my take on it.


This is a picture of my daughter and I playing with our shadows last summer.  She's so funny.  It was her idea to snap a few pics.  Love those moments.

I used up some papers from the Amy Tangerine Sketchbook collection and alphas from Jillibean Soup and Simple Stories.  Really simple page. 

Head on over to the blog and check it out!  You'll certainly find inspiration there!! 

Have great weekend!
