My DH and DD gave me another Precious Moment and lots of cards. My DD made some handprints to use as magnets.
As everyone knows, Mother's Day is quite busy at the local restaurants. So to save my family the frustration, I suggested going to see "Iron Man" (which was reallly good) and going to Hooters for dinner.
We were able to see the first showing of "Iron Man" that Sunday morni...

Here are the remaining 6 LOs that I did at the all-day crop in honor of National Scrapbooking Day:
Still in Love- the dark gray border (going lengthwise) has been pleaded; 2 12x1 1/2" strips and 1/2 of 12x1 1/2" strip. I found working with a grid makes the creases easier to do.
Surprise!- this a birthday gift for my newly aunt. It was her 70th birthday and I thought of doing a LO fo...

I just finished two more LOs this evening. These photos were taken on our last camping trip to Mountain Lakes; a camping resort that's local. Little did we know that Angel, the dog, would have a major allergy attack to the pollen.
Prefect Companion- I trace the dog image onto the card stock and used a brown marker to cover up the blue lines.
Our Whole Life- I wanted to use wire on th...

I had to save some LOs to do for the all-day crop on Saturday (aka: Scrapbooking Day). During that time I was able to finish 9 LOs; five for my step-mom's album and 4 for mine. Out of the four, three of them are on the gallery. I forgot to take photos of my step-mom's LOs before giving them to her.
There's a lot of techniques that I did on each LO and I would like to tell you about them...

After a few months without scrapbooking, I have finally come back to my hobby... it's like all the planets lined up to allow me to spend some quiet time doing something I enjoy so much. Thanks for the NSD challenges for getting the creative juices flowing again... it's like riding a bike ;-)

Happy Croppin'

I'm still here everyone. Have done very few layouts recently but have discovered a new addiction (to compliment my scrapbooking addiction) in Stampin' Up! I just love everything they do....so much so that in order to fund my obsession I have signed up as a demonstrator! Yep! Me ....doing the "party plan" thing. I said it would never happen, but when I fell head over heels for Stampin' Up! resistan...

Oh yes we did, We have ONE MORE CHALLENGE for this month of March Madness!!!

We had so much fun last summer, the Design Team decided to do another round of Round Robin. We separated into two groups again, and this time we both went off of this layout by our March Guest DT member Besty:



The group leader took the original layout and scraplifted it, and then on and ...

Easier than you think- this week I want you to push away all those patterned papers you're staring at, wonder...

After a short period of "oh no what do I do now!", I finally got on a roll again. Im now working on 2 new pages for my daughters wedding album, and one on a baby Moose we had in our yard this past week. Hopefully I will get them done. Im now down to my final 2 layouts before I begin the wedding ceremony. Phew... I have to say though, Im not a very good picture taker..So photoshop comes in really r...

Hi Everyone. First sorry for my english. i´m going to make a presentation of my self. My name is Vanesa, i´m 30 years old and i´m from the north of Spain. I found out scrapbooking 5 months ago more or less thanks to one person, Maria, an exceptional friend. I buy and buy materials, papers, tools, etc, by internet because here in my city i have not scrapbook shops. I test and test...

I finally found almost all of the scrapbook pages I have been working on for a while, mostly one page layouts. When My generic scrapbook I had fell apart things kind-of got lost. I found one I made for my daughter and some I made for my wedding vow renewal and a couple I made last fall. Unfortunately, they are all falling apart:( I am now in the process of re-glueing and will be posting them in th...

In case anyone can tell, Im addicted to 2 page layouts. I very rarely will do a 1 page as there is just so much to say and to many cute things to put on them. Im trying to find some of my earlier layouts to put up but haven't found them yet. Sometimes it just seems to take forever to get one done!

When I found this forum I thought it may be a good place to put up the pages I am working on for my daughters wedding scrapbook album. Since she is in Australia, I can put them up here and she can watch the progress. All the layouts will have black, white red and silver as those were the colors my daughter chose. The other thing is every page will have red roses on it. Some will have more than ot...

When I was a baby, someone had given me a little 'tea set' as a gift and it was one of my favorite toys. Daddy was in the living room engrossed in the evening news when I brought Daddy a little cup of 'tea,' which was just water. After several cups of tea and lots of praise for such yummy tea, my Mom came home. My Dad made her wait in the living room to watch his little princess bring him ...
