Father's Day!

   I spent a little time in my scrap room today. I re-arranged and re-organized some things. I made this very plain and simple card. I hope you like it. I used Martha Stewart's "Seasonal Cake Art" to cut the 'Happy Father's Day'. The sentiment is printed on cardstock from 'Word'.  I really need to take some photography classes!

MIA!

     Sorry to be MIA for so long :-(  Lots of personal stuff going on and not much scrapping. I just can't seem to get back in the swing of things. Today it is thunderstorming and I will be going to my scrap room to just sit. Hopefully that will spark some enthusiasm for creativity. I love thunderstorms and I love my scrap room - maybe the two together will help get me out of this rut. I will be back later to let you know how that goes!

A Layout of Me!!!

   I don't usually scrap myself. I have made a new vow to try and get myself into some shots and not always be the photographer.  In this layout I was whitewater rafting with my sister in the Smoky Mountains last summer! We had a blast! My sister was sure we would drown - but we didn't! This will definitely be something I do again! I hope you like it! Remember, you can click on any picture to enlarge it. I'm not quite finished, but wanted to get this posted quickly. The only Cricut cuts are the ovals and letters from Plantin Schoolbook.

Oldest Grandson

   Did I mention that I also like to do digital scrapping?  Well I do! This was my first attempt. I used another "owie" picture - this time of my oldest grandson, Devin.  We did have to go to the ER for this one! He was trying to be acrobatic as he jumped in my pool - didn't work out for him!
   I have a flash drive with digital elements on it. I chose ribbons and buttons and a "d" for Devin. The "d" was a different color so I changed it to match the ribbon. Can you see the stitching element I added? I thought that was appropriate! LOL! The two small picture frames are another element I added and put pictures of the ER Doc and the suture tray! Devin actually took the picture of the Doc!

Shape Book

  This is a shape book I made for my grandson's first trip to the ocean. I take basic supplies with me on vacation and then hit local craft shops for papers I want. I made this entire book while we were away! He was almost 2 years old and he had the shaggy beach boy hair! This is one of his favorite books to look through and he wants to go again soon! I also have a blank book to show how it started out. The "Tahiti" stack from DCWV is my favorite "beach" theme paper and that is what I used here. I hope you like this book.
