Been Scrapping When I Can

This one made just for fun! Playing with some Maya Mists, leftover Cricut cuts, fun handmade embellies from Art Freckles, thickers, and bling! This next page pretty much turned into an orange inking mess...when I dropped the ink pad! Oops! I used the Paper Popsicles sketch of the week provided by Lynda for this page.

This one is the next addition to my Ancestry album that I've been working on forever!!!! I used K&Co Ancestry paper and embellies. Based on this weeks sketch #38 at 52 sketches 52 weeks.

Last weekend was an absolute bast over at Scrapperie Paper Kit Boutique

They held a fabulous crop loaded with a variety of fun challenges! These are my creations from last weekend!

Some Card Challenges

Here is the card I made for this weeks card sketch at the Paper Popsicles Blog

This card here is for the Art Freckles weekly challenge (to colour...which I hadn't done in a long time)

It's a CREEPY CRAWLY BLOG STOMP

Where: Paper Popsicles

When: October 10th

Mark your calendars!!!!

Art Freckles ~ Traveling Gypsies Kit

Shannon, the owner of Art Freckles puts together some really amazing kits!!!! I have not been disappointed with any of my purchases from this Ontario online kit club!!!!! This last kit is one of my favorites!!!! Here are a few of the pages I've put together with the kit!

I used a sketch from my friend Lynda and Paper Popsicles for this next one:

For this next page, (I'm scrapping our summer vacation)...I used sketch #37 at 52sketches52weeks

The girls thought it was so much fun to eat without utensils!

My Snapshots of Summer Album

Art Freckles hosted a "Snap Shots of Summer" challenge this past summer. I was able to take a lot of fun photos using the themes provided. Then my package from Studio Calico arrives with some very fun papers (Over the Rainbow August Kit), and a great Bingo album from Melissa Frances.... so I put the two together and this is what I came up with! Each page is designed with a specific photo in mind....I will fill it up and enjoy the memories this summer has created in years to come!

Lovebug Kits and Sketches

Perfect timing for my family day photos!

I used a few sketches and managed to put my July kit to good use! Love these fun Pink Paisley papers!

52 sketches #36

This next one is made for Lyndas' sketch challenge over at Paper Popsicles.

This one is for Melissas' hand drawn sketch challenge over at Paper Popsicles.

This last page is just for fun! My cousins do have really cute kids!!!

~Scrappy Shopping~

I buy tons of stuff online, mostly scrappy goods but often other things too.... Okay...mostly scrappy goodies!!! I love online kit clubs, and online stores that keep up with the trends! One of my very favorite online stores is Bluemoon Scrapbooking! The customer service is amazing, they have loads of new stuff weekly and I get all giddy when the package I order arrives on my doorstep!!!! I am always pleased with my orders!!!! Thanks Scott, this months' package ROCKS!!!! You all MUST check out those new Primas, and Graphic 45 papers.....just a few of my favorites!

A bunch of stuff I forgot to post!

I have a file folder on my laptop labelled "To Post on Blog". It's been neglected lately! Here are a few pages/cards that were lonely in that file....so I'll post them now and see if I can keep up to date now that the girls are back in school!

I have loads of pages that need photos too...so I'm hoping to tackle those soon!

Here are 2 baby girl pages I made for Stacey's "Virtual Baby Shower"

This card is made from Art Freckle scraps.

This next one uses supplies from an older Paper Popsicles kit.

This one of the girls at the beginning of the summer is made with supplies from a Lovebug kit.
