Sorry it has been awhile! I don't know why I have such a hard time updating here! I promise I'll try to do better! I have some exciting scrappy news to share. It always does my heart good for my lay-outs to get noticed! It means that others enjoy them as much as I do. My lay-out "Wonder" received Kudos at http://scrapbookersclubhouse.com for kudos of the day! Here is the link to the thread! It really made my day! I was not having a good day so it really made me smile! Thank you Heather for picking my lay-out!

When I saw this picture taken by my sis, Cindy. I fell in love with it! This is so Carley. She was frustrated because she couldn't get up in the swing. Her expression and how beautiful she looked in her frustration just took my breath away. I antique the photo using Photoscape. I really think it turned out so beautiful! My darling Carley always makes my days!
My Full of Spunk lay-out was chosen as the winner of the blog sketch contest #17 at http://scrapbookersclubhouse.wordpress.com (scroll down a little on the blog to find it!) This is of my sis, Melinda's kindergarten picture. I made it to frame and give to her for her birthday! It's okay. She already knows about it! You can see it here on my blog if you scroll down.
A couple of weeks ago, I was asked to be a blog sketch designer for Noella Arsonault's new blog http://creativelyyours.wordpress.com She is such a wonderful sketch artist and I am honored that she thought of me to design using her wonderful sketches. Be sure to visit her blog for awesome sketches and lots of scrappy inspiration!
I guess I have been in a funk lately. We have officially closed the store. We will have everything out by Saturday. I feel sad about it. I guess I had thought about it more before I jumped in head first. We really put a lot of work into the store. My reason for doing that was to share this wonderful hobby with more people in my area. I'm not sure why it didn't go over so well but at least we tried.
So enough of that...thanks for visiting my blog and leave me a comment so I'll know you stopped by!
xoxo
