Top 10 Layouts in Random order

Okay so my friend Ally gave me this blog challenge.  To post my top 10 favorite layouts of this year.  Well I don't know which ones I like better but I will just post them anyway.  Randomly of course.

I loved the stamping on this one.  The photos are phenomenal as well!  Jamie rocks!

I loved this kit that Shanna put together!  So perfect for this photo too!

I love this photo of Sarah.  OH man!  And to think I took it! WOO HOO!

I love the sparkle to this one.  The colors pop and it was so fun! 

Hmmm...all Sarah layouts...I love the bling on this one!  So much fun!!!!

I love this layout a ton!  I love the photos in this one as it pulls out Andrew's personality so much!

This one was fun.  Just simple not too messy. I love the blue of Ryan's eyes!!  Gorgeous!

The scan is pretty grainy, but this is the one I did for PageMaps in February.  I love love love this one!!

This one just cracks me up!  I mean I never thought to scrap this and then I just did it.  Hilarious!
 
This is a small image but the page is great!  So much bling and fun stuff to it.

Well I hope you enjoyed this last year.  There are so many great and wonderful things in store for all of us next year.  May the Lord bless you and your family continually always!  Thanks for coming and sharing this time with me.  You all ROCK!  Happy New Year!!

Woo Hoo I scrapped!

Okay so I finally got some scrappy stuff going.  I did this layout based a PageMap of Becky Fleck's.  I started Saturday and finished it yesterday with the help of Scott.   He helped me with the title.  Nice huh!  Well I love the photos in this layout, they just make me smile.  How cute is Andrew in these!!  TFL!

Long time...

Well it has been a pretty long time since I blogged.  That's pretty unusual for me.  I just wanted to post these pictures of my kids on Christmas morning.  They aren't the best and sadly they are the only ones.  Really it does make me sad.  But hey I got some right! 


I have a few ideas running through my head for a couple of projects.  I will post them if I ever get them out of my head.  Have a wonderful day everyone!!

Thanks Santa!

Okay this is such a simple card.  I made this last night before going to dinner at my IL's.  I just got this wonderful oval punch and I love it!!!  Thank you Scrapsupply!!  Anywho, I hand stitched all the stitching.  I just wanted to clarify why there are crooked stitches.  The buttons were easily sewn on without any difficulty.  Well here it is.  TFL!  May you all have a very Merry Christmas Eve!  I will post pictures of our morning festivities sometime tomorrow!! 

Happy Birthday Janelle!!

Well over at Sketch This Cards, Sketch This, and Card Studio Designs, it's Janelle Richmond's birthday!!  Happy birthday girl!  Here is a card I made for you and will get it in the mail today!  Hope your day is great and amazing!!

CPS #43

I really like the sketch over at CPS this week.  Here is what I came up with!  TFL!

Seasonal Cards

I have been stuck in this seasonal card rut.  To be honest, I love it!  It makes me feel all Christmasy when it is sunny and clear skies at 55 degrees.  Some people would think that would be the perfect weather.  I, however, do not agree.  I want Christmas to have snow.  It's how I grew up, it's what I knew until I moved here to sunny AZ.  Call me crazy, many have, but I love cold, rainy, snowy, wet weather.  I relish it.  I miss it.  Well now that I have gone off the original direction of this post, I will get back to it.  I made this card from the Sketch This Cards #36.  I struggled with this one with whether or not to add a sentiment.  I still am unsure, but I like it still.  Any opinions??  Please share!  Thanks for stoppin by.

   

Joy Screen II

Here is another joy screen I put up in my Etsy.  The first one went fast, so hurry and I'll get it in the mail before Christmas!!

Happy Holidays!

I made this lovely card this morning.  I had my lesson for Young Women's prepared, kids were still sleeping, so I pounded this out in about 15-20 min. It is based on a sketch at Sketch This Cards #32.  Not too shabby. Sorry about the bad lighting. Anywho, just wanted to share it with you this fine Sunday morning!  I hope your day is full of rest and relaxation.  After church, I hope that is what mine is full of! 

Fun!

I have been meaning to scrap this picture forever!  I finally got the inspiration from Janelle's Sketch This sketch this week.  Thanks Janelle!  Here it is.  Very simple, but finally go it done! WOO HOO!  TFL!
