Postcards





Here are some postcards I created today. The pink Happy Birthday uses pieces of that mega kit I gave you the link for yesterday. The farm and thank you cards are from kits from Janniscraps and the one with stars is from Peppermint Creative.

Camping

All I can say is Heather you have outdone yourself! I love this new kit!!! Finding cute boy kits is hard, but this one is just the cutest one ever. I love the colors, they are just my taste. Anyway, I did this page using the template from your blog and I used the kit 'Boys How They Grow' from the Moo Two Store.

Whole bunch of pages




I was able to do a finish a whole bunch of pages yesterday. I went back through some of the older posts on the blog to get some ideas for layouts, so the layouts may look familiar to you. I get stuck sometimes and use the same layouts over and over again. I'm glad we are able to post so I can get new ideas, (and other reasons too). Here are a few of the pages I did yesterday.

Another page


This is another page I did with a quickpage of the new kit called Earthy Circles. In my last post I forgot to tell where I got it and the name of it. It's from Heather at the Moo Two shop. Didn't she do such a good job!! The quickpage is actually a freebie from her blog. Good Job Heather!

I actually did something!


I know you are surprised to see me posting something! If you didn't know I am pregnant and I have Prego Brain and can not focus on anything! I hope to be able to scrapbook soon!

A new kit I got


I love this kit! I'm not so sure about the layout though. I think it is too busy or something. Tell me what you think I could do to help it look better. Maybe it would help if I slowed down, because I was hurrying while the kids were being good so I did this page in like 20 minutes, which for me is good because I am slow.

New Pages!

With the semester finally coming to an end, I was finally able to create my own scrapbook pages! It has been so much fun. This is one of Austin looking like a little man... I used my new scrapbook kit that I'm going to put up in the store sometime next week. The page is a little bit cluttered, but I still like it! I've been out of practice!!!


And, I had to be fair and do one of Jaden as well!


And here is a preview of my kit, just in case you are interested in seeing what I made! (There are also several elements and a couple of papers that aren't on the preview - I couldn't make everything fit!)

Oops!

The word art that I used on that last post was not from the site I said it was. My sister wants that that word art, but I can't remember where I got it. If you have it and know where you got it would you let me know. Thanks

Another new page



I used the word art from the site Heather posted for us. I love this saying, It is so true! It totally fits Hayden!

Mouse Pads





Shutterfly is having a sale on mouse pads until the second week of May. They are $8 each, down from $10. I made these to present as mouse pads.

Great Word Art site!!!

I just found this great site with TONS of word art. She also has a section (Religious) that contains quite a few LDS sayings, primary songs.... It is great, I've been downloading quite a bit of them and had to stop. I'm going to be checking there often. It doesn't look like her links ever expire. Anyway, go check it out at Elegant Word Art. Have fun!!!

Check it out!

I found this site that gave a cute free kit. Maybe you already know about it, but just in case I thought I would share with you. It is at http://www.scrapwow.com/taf13fdsk125432.asp?gclid=CNzAlqjX7ZICFQgegwodd0oF3g It's a huge kit too. So go and check it out!

Wishing for Summer



Just doing these pages makes me wish for summer. So, tell me though, do you think these pages are too girly? I have so many flowers and ribbons that work so well for girls, but they are kind of iffy for boys. So tell me please!

Butteflies and an escape!

I finally got around to making a couple of pages. These ones were quite fun because I LOVED all the colors!



For some reason, when we were at the butterfly exhibit, we couldn't keep the butterflies off of Austin - this one liked him so much that he tried to leave with him!



The first one was made using one of my templates and the second was a quickpage by Nana's Attic (all the papers and elements were created by her).

I'm back!




I couldn't sign into the blog for a long time, come to find out I was just hitting a wrong button or something, but thanks Kristy for helping me figure it out! So I have done tonz of pages since I last posted. Here are a few of my favorites:

TA DA!

Here is an honest-to-goodness scrapbook page. And it's something that's within 6 months of occuring! It took me all day. It may be a while before I can crank out another.



This kit is "Celebrate the New Year" by Janniscrap Designs.

I've been picked up.....

Not quite a scrapbook page


I haven't been scrapping in FOREVER! But I did take a moment to make a blog header for a friend's page. I know this is stretching it for scrapbooking, but at least it used the program!

A completed challenge....

There is a fun challenge going on over at The Sunshine Blog. All you have to do is complete a layout that shows 14 different things about yourself and you'll get a really neat kit for free. You only have until Monday (at noon, I think) to get it done.... so go check it out! Here is my layout!

Slow at posting.....

I have not posted in a while. SORRY! There are many reasons. Some of you know.
But one main reason is that I am building a blog for Desi's Custom Cakes. It is to show all of her cakes to customers. So Check out the Header. Give me your honest opinion. I have a lot of photo's to edit before it is up an running. But I am hoping for next week.

Growing Up...

I just got a bunch of my old pictures from when I was little put onto my computer. This is a favorite picture of mine... didn't we all just love those Cabbage Patch Kids? Anyway, it was fun working with the older pictures.

A Quickpage!!!

Here is a page I made of the kids last Easter. Notice there is no snow on the ground... and that kids are only in their light weight jackets! Hopefully, the snow will melt this next week so we can still have our Easter Egg Hunt outside!!!! I am so ready for Spring!

Robots - revised


Is this one any better? I hope so, because I replaced the old one with it! Thanks for the suggestions! I may have to change the font for the journaling. Later.





I just completed this page. Although there are several elements involved, it still seems kind of plain to me. Any suggestions? Maybe the text should be darker?

This is so fun!



I got that album Arlyn has. Thanks by the way, for telling me where to find it! I love it. I didn't know pages could be so easy. I did five pages in about an hours time. I never thought scrapbooking could be so easy!! Here's just a couple of the pages I did.

Spirit of Christmas Past

I'm going WAY back to scrap. Leah was just shy of her 1st birthday here.


The kit is "Christmas Simplicity" from JanniScrap Designs. The font is Amazon.

Monday, March 10, 2008

Arlyn, I was wondering where you got the kit for the pages you did of your baby. Most of them were posted last month. I think they are so cute, and I'm needing to do pages of Hayden and Carter when they were little babies. So if you know could you let me know. Thanks


Lacy, I'll just answer you in the post, if you don't mind. The kit is an album of quickpages found at Shabby Princess and is called "Ultimate Baby Album - Prince." I noticed that there is a kit that coordinates with it called "Our Little Prince." They are not free kits and the album is about twice the $$ as the kit. But they are super cute! (There are also pink ones if you just change PRINCE to PRINCESS.)

If you want to find them, use the advanced search option and click on all words, to shorten the search time.

I'm way behind as you can see, but I'm having so much fun that I should be caught up in no time. Yeah right, but I can try.

They're the Same...

Here's my page that I'm going to place opposite of the "Girls will be girls, and Boys will be boys" page.



I used one of my templates for this one and the new Shabby Princess kit that Kristy gave us the link to. You definitely need to download it.... if you haven't already. It's a fun one!!!

Check it out

Sabby Princess has a new FREE KIT!

Another of Heather's Templates


I just can't stop making pages. The kids are asleep and the house is a mess, but I just want to do this.

Friday, March 7, 2008

My first post


I made this using one of Heathers templates. Now that I know how to use templates I love them. Thanks Heather for the templates, I love them! I couldn't figure out how to change the color of the stiching so I left it black. If I can change the color, let me know.

New Page with new brushes and fonts!


I downloaded some brushes and fonts and created this page from some old pictures. (2004 is the farthest back I can go on this computer...glad I have more stored on disk!)
.
I created the flowers using a stamp from Shady Medusa as well as the frames. The word art is compiled from Scriptina and Willy Wonka fonts. The writing at the bottom is a font called Roddy.
.
The kit is "Lavender Blue" from Peppermint Creative/Miss Mint.
.
Also, I touched up Chad's face in Photoshop to "erase" some "blemishes!" ;)

Two in One...

This idea spurred off a comment from Kristy last night! (When she was talking about one element looking boyish and the other girly on the same page) :) Anyway, it got me thinking and I decided to make a page with both!!!



I'm also going to make another page to face opposite, saying something like "...but, mostly, they're just the same!" and having some pictures of the kids all together! I haven't made it yet, but hope to be able to make it later tonight or tomorrow - before I forget.

A Couple of Quickpages!!!

Here are a couple of quickpages that I made using a new kit of mine. The kit is quite finished yet, but it has been a lot of fun to make. I've learned all sorts of new things by playing around with some of the elements!!! I thought this kit would be great for Easter! Anyway, here are the quickpages. Now I just need to actually scrap some of my pictures with the kits. I have yet to use them for myself!!!






And just a reminder: Come to my house Tuesday (tomorrow) at 7:00 for a show and tell. Lacy will also be there!!!
