Happy Birthday, Neighbor!

Today, I want to share one of the cards I made for my little neighbor. She turned 12 years old Saturday and one of her little sisters turned 3. I have some great neighbors. My husband and I are very blessed to have such a great relationship with them. So on Saturday we were going over to one of our neighbors' home to celebrate the birthdays. We got the 3 year old an adorable little dress and I made her a Little Mermaid card. And the 12 year old I made her this card. She got a gift certificate and I wanted her card to be special. And she liked it! :o)


Thanks for stopping by!

Happy Scrapping!

Scrapnight!

We had such an amazing night on Friday with all the gals! We had food and scrapping galore! Some gals had never met, yet hit it off very well! Let's just say it was a huge success and we can't wait to have our next scrapnight in August! So I wanted to share some pictures from that night... :o)

I made salami with cream cheese and pepperoncinis!

I had nachos for my gals and sodas and cookies! They were all sweet to bring more sweets. We had a delicious fruit cocktail salad and some out of this world brownies! They have been the best brownies I've ever had!


We had agreed to do a white elephant DCWV Stacker swap! It was so much fun. Sabrina and Stephanie liked eachothers stackers so much that they decided to divide them and half and share! lol!

lol! Funny gals!

Here we are all scrapping!








And here the gals playing with the Cricut Imagine (love this machine)!



We had such an amazing time! I hope to come back and share some of the projects I did that night!

Happy Scrapping!

Yes Yes, It's been 2 years!

.... I'm still finishing up my Mexico City album! I know, I know! I'm horrible and sooooo behind! But what can I say, other than, I'M LAGGING! lol! So, now that I am hosting a scrapbook night this Friday with some beautiful ladies, my goal is to finish this album once and for all this Friday! I'm so stoked and I know it will happen.... maybe! So, question is, am I the only one behind with my scrapping? I can't be! Please, please tell me I'm not! lol! I think everyone has a pace and a mojo to help them... and once in a while that mojo might run away for a while and leave you hanging in the middle or even (like in my case) the end of an album.

But don't worry! That scrapmojo always finds its way home back to you. It might be a day, it might be a month, or even a year, but it always comes back.

So here's the page I made tonight, I'm almost there! I promise.. just a few more!



Happy Scrapping!

Happy Scrapping! :o)

Scrapspace is finally functional.... for now!

Happy Friday, Everyone!!!! Nothing can make me happier than knowing that my scrapspace is finally ready for me to destroy again with projects! I was going to post "before" pictures, but decided that I was just too darn embarassed to do so. LOL! Warning by the way, this is very picture heavy post! (By the way more pictures to come)

Ok, here you go:

My little scrapspace is a shared (mostly mine) room with my husband. He claims that if he moves out of the room he will never see me, therefore this is a sure way that one way or the other we will at least see eachother.



Here I have a converted closet with 2 Making Memories Embellishment centers drilled into the wall. I also have my sewing machine and an embellishment tower right next to the entrance. In the white containers I have the entire alphabet with foam letters. Above that I have some of my Cricut Cartridges. This is where I do most of my work.

Here is a close up of my workspace. I try to have it somewhat organized and most of my stuff at reach. The gray container on the left is holds my alphabet in chipboard letters. Very nifty tackle box.

Here is my sewing machine. I have some of my fabrics and sewing scissors. The white containers hold my foam letters and they are all seperated alphabetically. The black little box holds my clear stamps and the red and blue box on top of it holds my vellum qoutes. The paper holder on the right holds paper stackers (some at least) and then above all that is a shelf with some more Cricut Carts and pictures I still need to sort through.  


This is my embellishment tower. I love this thing... so many people have offered to buy it from me. Won't sell it at all! It holds everthing and anything and it's all labels and well made. On top I have my glitter pens holder.
Next to the entrance is another door and it's for the jack and jill bathroom that connects both rooms. On that door I have some more paper stackers and one of my many aprons.
Next to the bathroom door I have a great little chest that my husband fixed up for me. The top half is for me and the bottom half is for my husband's computer parts. On top of my dresser I have my YourStory and my Cuttlbug as well as more alphabet and embellies.
There are 3 drawers art the top. 2 of them of full of ribbon! (love me some ribbon)
The other one has my paint, paint sponges, and my flocking powder.
In the next drawer I have all my Papayrus envelopes I got a while ago when Broder's was closing down. Amazing deal! :o)
In the last drawer I have more Cricut Carts. I have more in my Cricut Cartridge Storage Binders.

Next to my dresser, you'll see a paper rack with stackers and solids and misc. things.

I have my Making Memories Slice and my Sticker Binders. The Sticker binders are organized by theme. This system works great for me!

And next to those.. my awesome Cricut Imagine! Love it!

I didn't take pictures of the desks because those aren't done. I will post them as soon as they are though. For now this room works, although my husband and I are planning to re-vamp the entire room... hopefully this year or early next year! Now, I can't wait to start creating in my nice clean room! Yay!

Happy Scrapping!
