Valentine's Day 2009

A little CT Scrappin'





Here are 2 pages I made with Teri's kit called School's Out 4 Summer. It's on sale at Scrapable and Pretty Scrappy. It's more of a graduation kit, but I picked and choose the elements to make it work for pics I had. For those of you who have a Kindergarten Grad, or a Highschool or College Grad, go check it out!

Project 365

So how many of you out there started project 365 and have fallen off the bandwagon???

Surprisingly I've kept up with the picture taking, it's the scrapping that's fallen WAAAAAY behind. But I know I'll catch up. I took a 2 week break from the picture taking, but I had good reason. I figured the book is only for my family and I, and if I don't care I'm missing 2 weeks, no big deal, right? (it actually does bug me that I'll have 2 missing pages, but 2 missing is better than just quitting, right!??)

So, to all of you that started out the year doing Project 365, if you've fallen behind, just start back up with today! You can do it! Just think how happy you'll be when the year is over, your book is finished, and you have this awesome book recounting your past year.

In case you're wondering, yes, this is a pep talk to myself to keep me on the ball! :)

Magic


I did this page months ago but I didn't have the right picture for it. I had in mind a picture of Grace looking out of a window. I think there is something so magical about watching a child who doesn't know they're being watched. This isn't exactly that, but it's a sweet picture anyway.

Mister Pister, Toolman, Stinker

I've been working on Grace's first year book, so poor Austin has been neglected in the scrapping-ness :) Here is finally a page for him. I found a PERFECT kit for him. The kit is called Daddy's little helper, the TOU wasn't included in the element pack I downloaded so unfortunately I don't know who made it...if anyone out there knows please let me know and I'll update the credits. The teal paper from Circle of Life by Stacey @ Scrap that idea but everything else is from Daddy's little helper.

The Case of the Missing Teeth

Ahhhh! Finally a page I'm happy with!

Uh oh

I haven't scrapped a single thing in quite a while....go look at my last post, April something or other, that's the last thing I've done. So I sat down at my laptop during nap time today, tried to scrap....no go. I didn't even save what I worked on, 3 separate pages down the drain. Ok, no big deal, I haven't done this in a while I'm just a little rusty. Well, tonight I tried again, I even have a brand new super cute kit of Teri's to work with....um....nothing. I tried scraplifting several pages I found and love just as a starting point and I couldn't do anything I even remotely liked.

So we've all heard of writer's block, I have scrapper's block it seems.

Hopefully I'll be back in the swing of things soon!!
