We will miss his shade!!

Well this is what we woke up to this morning. The big oak tree just gave up and rested on the ground. It is sad. He was so old and now has to be removed. We were lucky that all he did was knock down the power line. Missed the car and van by a foot. It was amazing to say the least. We really enjoyed his shade! The yard will be lonely with out him!! I am sad!!

Hat Party

Well me and My hubby celebrated our 1st anniversary on 10-20 and we decided to have a party to celebrate with friends. But it was not your ordinary party. We had a hat party. We offered prizes for the best hats and there were some awesome hats. Here are a few of them. It was amazing how creative people were.

Boys LO

I made this LO last night. I used some photos from 2001. I just love how the boys look in this photo. They love playing with the big Crickets at the river. I just love their smiles. What memories.

Paper is by DCWV, stickers I had on hand and do not know who they are by!

Challenge in Lets Scrap

Here is a LO I did for a challenge in Lets Scrap on Cafemom!! I was able to use photos from 2001 that I am trying to get finished by the end of the year. They are the last of my old photos.

Paper is by DCWV. brads are by Jo anns, ink is by colorbox!

Christmas Cards for a swap

Here are the Christmas cards I did for a swap on Cafemom! I wanted to do abstract. I think I pulled it off. I hope that the others in the swap like it too!!

The green paper is by DCWV and the brads are by Joanns. The red and cream colored paper I had on hand and do not know who made it. The cards are Value cards from my local scrap store.

I found a new scrap store!

Craft fair tomorrow!!

Well the Craft Fair is tomorrow. I am so happy to be able to sell my scrapbooks and purses. I will let you know how I did. Here are the other scrapbooks I made to sell.

My Hubby is a published Author!!!

Just wanted to let everyone know that my husband wrote a book and it is now available!! I am so proud of him. He has wanted to write a book for years and he finally did it!!!

Christmas Card

Here is a Card that I made for a swap. I like the way it turned out. I decided not to use the usual Christmas colors for this card. I was able to get away with it... I think!! I like it anyway!! lol!!

Mini Albums

Well I finally got the 8 mini albums I was working on completed. I like the way they turned out. I am already making 10 more albums. Have them cut out, just need to get them put together. They will be brag books and some Christmas ones too!!

6 x 6

4 x 4

This is what I have been doing!!!

Well I have been busy getting ready for the craft fair on the 18th and here are some photos of the purses I have made. I still have about 12 left to sew and I am finishing the mini albums that I am making to sell also. I have been so busy making the purses that I have not been able to scrap much. Sad!! But I am excited to sell these and have money for Christmas.




This is the biggest purse. I have made 4 of these, but my mom and SIL claimed 2 of them. I have 4 more cut out to sew and will probably make even more of them.

These little wristlet purses are perfect for teens and people who do not carry much in their purse.

These purses are great too. They have pockets on the inside for your phone or wallet. I am using one of these. Perfect size for me.

This is a little wristlet purse. I love the size!!

Some of my favorite pages

Here are a few of my favorite pages. There are so many, but I wanted to share a few with you.

My crazy son

OK, I decided I will add these photos before I scrap them. My youngest son has always wanted a Mohawk... so we cut his hair and spiked it in a mohawk the other night. It was crazy. The craziest thing is that my hubby knew how to get it to stick up (Hair spray and an iron)... seems that he had a mohawk in his younger days. lol!! learn something new everyday!! We did cut the mohawk down to about an inch now. He has not spiked it to go to school yet, I think he wants to do that tomorrow.

Challenge in Let's Scrap

Here was a sketch challenge yesterday in Let's Scrap. I love the way the LO came out. It was a great sketch.

The photo is of my middle son. He has the prettiest curls and he hates it when people tell him he should have been a girl. So the title say "Curls, not just for girls" One thing is for sure, the curls get the girls!!!

Photo Frame for DH

Here is a photo frame I made for DH. It was a Challenge in Let's scrap over on Cafemom. I love it and so does he!! It was very easy to make and he can flip it to change the photos. Very creative.
