Crop in ScrapNmom group on Cafemom!

I have had a great time making so many things in the Scrapnmom's Cafemom group!!! There are so many great challenges going on in the group this week. Here are the things I have gotten done so far.



That is about 30 different things!! Wow!!!! I am so happy to be scrapping it really is therapeutic.
So there are all the things I did for the crop!!! It was amazing!! I don't think I have ever gotten that much done in a week!! But then again, I usually don't have so much free time on my hands like I did this week!

Thanks for the great crop!!!

Have I told you that I LOVE TO SCRAP?!!


I have been scrapping like crazy lately!! It really helps me to relieve stress and relax! So I have created many things!!! I am trying to use the supplies I have so that means to make my supplies work for the LO I am doing. I have been very creative with this and I am very happy with what I have made. I also have been organizing my supplies to make it easier to use them. That is my biggest problem. I cannot find what I want to use, but now I am getting them all organized so that I can find them!!!

Here are some LO's I have made this last week:

Word of the Year 2010

I decided to do A Word a Year for 2010. It took me a while to come up with my word. I think this year will be all about using what we have. Giving new life to old things and making the most of what we have. I am bad about impulse buying and so is my hubby!! But not this year!! We are going to find new homes for many items in our home and figure out better ways of using many of the things we have. So my word this year is:

re⋅ju⋅ve⋅nate

–verb (used with object)

1. to make young again; restore to youthful vigor, appearance, etc.: That vacation has certainly rejuvenated him.
2. to restore to a former state; make fresh or new again: to rejuvenate an old sofa.
3. Physical Geography.
a. to renew the activity, erosive power, etc., of (a stream) by uplift or by removal of a barrier in the stream bed.
b. to impress again the characters of youthful topography on (a region) by the action of rejuvenated streams.
–verb (used without object)
4.
to undergo rejuvenation; revive.



From Dictionary.com

So what is your word of the year? Share a link to your post in the comments or just tell me your word!! I love to hear what everyone is going to focus on this year!!

I am a Groovy Girl!!!


I am on the design team at If It's Goovy!! I love the group and the blog. They give me so much inspiration and I am so happy to be on the design team!!!

Getting scrappy!!!

I love when I make time to scrap. It really does make the stress of life disappear! My DH is right when he tells me that I need to make time to scrap because I am getting overwhelmed. He is a smart one!!! I was able to make several LO's last night and I want to share them with you.

Here is the first one:
Photobucket
It is based on a challenge posted in this Cafemom group!

Then I did 3 LO's with the same photo, because I do a separate LO for each of my kids.

I am just happy to be scrapping. Hope to get to scrap again today, but DH is home sick. Seems he has what I still have, but he is at the worst point. So we will see what I can accomplish. Have some challenges I would love to get too.

Happy scrapping!!!

Wow! I feel old!!

My oldest son turns 19 on the 9th of January and I am feeling very old!!! When I was 19 I had 2 kids, that seems like yesterday! How can time be flying by so fast. It is still hard to believe that it is 2010!! But I guess we must march on.

Happy Saturday to everyone. I hope to be scrapping later!!! Have a great day!!!
