Day 9's picture..

I almost forgot to capture a picture today... I caught Kaidynce again before supper... she was out front drawing with sidewalk chalk (if you look real close you can see it on her forehead, lol) ... I suppose she didn't want to be a model today, lol..

On a scrappy note, make sure you stop by Paper Popsicles Blog for a chance to win some yummy blog candy! While you're there stop in at the store and check out their Digital Designs! They are sooo cute!!

Thanks for stopping by!!

Day 5's Picture.. And a couple layouts!

This is my child who would rather run screaming from the camera, than stand in front of it. She hates the flash, and if the flash can't be avoided, a good picture of her can be. She had a brilliant idea to have me take a picture of her wearing sun glasses... I suppose it worked! lol.
I also have a feeling we are entering the 'I'm cool' phase in life... ahhhh isn't 8 sweet!



This layout was done with pp's, brads and thickers from a kit at Paper Popsicles... I really like how it turned out!!


Used: Piggy Tales ~ garden grow and pretty maids pp, Piggy Tales Matching Rubons, Thickers ~ By the Yard, Brads ~ Heidi Swapp Jeweled Brads

LOVE LOVE LOVE how this one turned out!!

Used: Pink Paislee ~ Tinsel Town Collection & Making Memories ~ Ava Ric Rac Ledger PP's, Scenic Route Chipboard butterflies, Daisy D's Rubons, Heidi Swapp jeweled brads, Tingaling Accents (alphas), flowers (?), Shimmerz, opal

Double post Thursday??

I finally got a bit of scrapping in... and when I say a bit, I mean a bit, lol. Took over an hour to get this one together... it really boggles my mind as to why though, as I'm really all for 'simple' layouts right now. Oh yes, it was the half hour I spent on trying to make a flower (that did not work out and is not on the layout, lol).

I did a second layout for Paper Popsicles May Sketch Challenge.. I wasn't too fond of my first one, so I thought I'd do another one!


Thanks for stopping by!!!

Day 4's picture... And Blog Candy...

I really need to get working on some layouts.. it's been a rough week around here with the passing of our friends lil one (5 months old) :( . It's been quite sad around here..

Anyways, I took this picture yesterday... I guess I'm cheating posting it today as today's picture.. but it looks the same today anyways, lol.

I'm not sure the name of this flower, but a little patch of them grow every year in our front garden. I decided to play on a setting on my camera while enjoying the sun yesterday. The actual flower is smaller than a dime... so I think my camera did not so bad...

What do you think??

Honestly, I was kind of jealous of all the cutesy blogs out there, and quite disappointed that I couldn't find anything for WordPress, unless I paid for it. I decided it might be worth it to move over to blogger and see how it goes.

I don't want to confuse the few people who stop by, so I'm leaving my old blog up with a redirect to this one. If that doesn't work out... who knows! LOL!!

If you've made it safely to this address, please drop me a line and tell me what you think of it!!

How Cool!!

Paper Popsicles has brought in some new 'Digital Designs'!

This is from the Paper Popsicles Blog

Cheeky Radish!
I am so excited to introduce our brand new Digital Designs, or Stamps if you want to call them that, designed exclusively for Paper Popsicles by "Cheeky Radish". Cheeky Radish is an artist, well know locally, who has so many crafty talents I can't keep up. Her art can be outrageously strange to whimiscal and fun.

Watch closely as our digital designs category in the store continues to grow. Head to the store to see the rest of our current selection.

You can find the link to Paper Popsicles under 'Sites I love' on the left hand side of my blog!

A New Day... .

A new picture! And perhaps a perfect one to put on a layout! This is of my youngest daughter, it’s her off day from school today, so in turn she is my lucky model! An unknowing one, that is. Is there anything more peaceful than pictures of sleeping babies or kids? I didn’t think so! She tired herself out cleaning her room today… I’m sure her room was just played in ;) and she’ll recruit her sister and brother to help her once they’re off school and she’s refreshed..

So, here’s my 2nd picture…
