I think I got my mojo back...

Havnt really been in much of a creative mood lately....but for some reason i got my mojo back last night. I did a page of Stuart and me on Valentines Day ♥ I have been holding on to this pack of paper doilies, i got at walmart, for months...just waiting for the "perfect" project to use them on. I find myself doing that alot...hording instead of useing! So on this layout i decided to use all my "good stuff" that i never reach for because im "saving" it. Im going to start doing that from now on...when i dont put restrictions on myself it fires my creativity and i am happier with the end result. I just cant wait for tonight after the kids go to bed...i cleaned up my scrap space last night (well actually 2 this morning), so with a new clean slate plus a whole bunch of "good stuff" just waiting to be used, i will be in scrapbook heaven! :)

My Valentine

Vintage...

Been working on a little project for a friend of mine...I'm putting together a vintage baby book for her. Its been so fun getting to use all the pinks, bows, glitter and ruffles that i love so much, but don't get to use very often

The Love of my life...

I love you more than words could ever possibly describe...i am so happy i get to spend the rest rest of my life with you. You are the love of my life and my best friend ♥ i will love you and be yours always!

2010...here we come!

A little late...

Just found this layout in my scrap stuff...i made it at a crop i went to a couple months ago. Well better late than never!

Just add sparkle...

Ive recently become addicted to glitter! When ever i think a project needs a finishing touch, what do i reach for? A little sparkle!

Merry Christmas!

 

 

 

 

I love you Princess...

 

 

December Daily 2009

I havnt done the cover yet...but here it is so far.
Dec. 1st the kids and i decorated ornaments with paint, rhinestones and glitter.
The second we decorated the tree. Loving that Martha Stewart Lace border punch!
Day three we went to Santee Town Center and the kids ran around the giant Christmas tree. I forgot to bring my camera so there are no pics for that day, just journaling. I just hand cut a piece of stiffened felt.
On the fourth we went to Stuarts Company Xmas party. They had Santa, coloring activities and cookie decorating...it was a blast! I stuffed the extra photos from the night in the little Maya Road envelope.
I havnt done the 5th yet. Stuart and his parents took the kids to December Nights in Balboa Park...they went to the Natural History museum.

Wow! I had an amazing Thanksgiving!! The food was incredible (thanks mom) and the company even better. I love this time of year when everyone gets together. I am incredibly thankful for the beautiful family i have.
Other that gorging myself with Turkey and Green Been Casserole...ive also been busy gathering for my December Daily...Im so excited that im actually going to do it this year. Its nice having more time to be with the ones i love and do the things that make me happy. It feels good not having the life sucked out of me by dramatic, insecure, paranoid crazy people! lol. Say that three time fast!

Misting Magic...

I will be teaching a Glimmer Mist class at Yellow Bird tonight...Im also holding the class December 17th. Its more of a technique class but you will be going home with this Christmas sign and 4 tags showing the different things you can do with it. Im pretty excited...I have completely fallen in love with GM...its so versatile...i like to dabble in different scrapbooking styles and it works with all of them!
Ok well Id better get to makin those kits!

Catch up...

Haven't had much time to post (wont be having that problem anymore ;P lol) ...so lets play catch up! October was an eventful month...we went to Lindo Lake ...

William spooning pumpkin guts :P Halloween. Stuart and William were pirates. Wesley was a transformer.

October was a fun month...as for November...Im going to concentrate on crafting! I want to scrap all my recent photos and im thinking about doing a December Daily this year as well. Im also going to try harder to post more often...i know my friends and family would like that. Ok well tomorrow is Stuart and my anniversary so we are going out to dinner tonight...Outback! yum! Hope everyone is having a nice weekend...i know i am!

This year is just flyin! It seems like just yesterday Stuart started Kindergarten....hes learning soooo fast! Hes so smart and I'm so proud of him.

Im working on a new Mini Book. Its of course using (my favorite) Cosmo Cricket. I just adore the 'Earth Love' line....although i cant wait to get 'Nutmeg'...it looks sooooo cute...i think its going to be my favorite line. Anyhoo...i hope to be finished with it by next weekend, so check back for more pics to come.

Fall is here...

My favorite time of year! I love the all the Rust's and red's, gold's and brown's. Ive already gotten in the halloween spirit. This is a banner i made a couple weeks ago. If i only had a fireplace to display it! lol. Its a mix of Making Memories and Cosmo.

I made this layout last night...the pic is from last year. I used the new "My Mind's Eye".

First Day...

My lil Stuart started kindergarten on Tuesday! By babies are growing up sooo fast!!


He was so good ...didn't cry, wasn't sad or anything...he waved good bye like it was no big deal. I think I was more scared and nervous than he was. I'm so proud of him! I enjoy picking out his outfit and packing his little lunch box every morning. This is a new chapter in our lives and i think I'm gonna like it!
