A little early...

to talk about Christmas since it is November 1st, but I have been thinking a lot about my December Daily book this year. I can't wait to start creating, journaling & taking holiday photos. I really do LOVE Christmas!

I was looking through some blogs today and came across a post on ELIZABETH KARTCHNER's blog.

She is giving away a December Daily SC kit giveaway. How exciting!!! I've attached a photo of the giveaway, but go to the Dear Lizzy Blog and check out the inspiration!

Christmas is only 55 days away!

My Love Layout using Spring Flings & Easter Things

The new Bella Blvd's mid-release collections are now shipping & should be arriving at your local scrapbook stores soon.

I created a layout using the new Spring Flings & Easter Things. I Love this picture I took of Molly at the park. She looks so sweet.
The new line's colors & patterns are perfect for the picture. I used some pink twine to tie around the photo.

I popped up the sticker "You are my sunshine" from the miniatures sticker sheet on my journalling block to add a little dimension.
I hope you enjoy the layout. I can't wait to create more things with the new lines!

A new collection

Bella Blvd has released two new mid release collections. They are Spring Flings and Easter Things & Winter Wonder. They are so cute! I was able to create a card called Be Happy with the Spring Flings and Easter Things collection.

I love the new miniatures stickers. They are great for cards or just to add a little pizazz to a layout.

I used Martha Stewart's fringe scissors to add a little dimension to the card. Plus I just love Bella Blvd's baby blooms a bella! And who doesn't enjoy a little twinery. :) It makes me happy!

Ciao Ciao for now...

A new love...

Owen James...was born August 6th, 2011.

He was 7 pounds and 12 ounces.

Auntie Morgan holding him and him staring at me. So sweet, look at those big eyes & smile!

Six days old I went over to his house to see him again. I just love him so much! He looks so different in six days...

He is so tiny...look at his little onesie, hat & diaper

Last photo of the day. Sleeping so peacefully.

Love you Owen, Auntie Morgan :)

Local Artista Week...

Hello All...

The Bella Blvd blog has been getting some major updating. It looks awesome! Laura has been super busy updating things. Stephanie & Laura wanted to do a little spotlight on the Local Artistas since we haven't done one in a while.

We were asked to take some new headshots, answer some questions and then to do a layout about ourselves. I was trying to think of something to do that would be a little outside of the box...so I decided to scrapbook one of the best experiences of my life (so far...)

October 2010, I went sky diving with my step dad. It truly was one of my best experiences. I don't really know how to describe it. It was AWESOME!!! I loved it so much I wanted to go back up and do it again the same day. :)

We went through the company Skydive Milwaukee which is based in East Troy, Wisconsin. The staff was great and my step dad and I had an Amazing Time! :)

Hopefully you learned a little something you didn't know about me...

Makes me feel old...

My twin cousins (Alec & Max) are turning 17 tomorrow. (which means I am exactly 4 months away from being 27)

I was the baby in the family until I was 9 years old. Then my uncle & his wife had the twins. I love them so much and use to babysit them when they were babies. The time has flown by and now they are in high school and have their driver's licenses and will be 17. I'm so interested in what paths they will pick as they go into their Senior Year this fall.
I'm always making them take pictures with me. It is so cray to be how much they are changing and growing. They are both over 6 feet tall. They make me feel old and short. :)

Happy Birthday Boys! I love you dearly!!!

A little Sunshine for a Friday morning....

I'm sure this adorable picture of Sunny will brighten every ones day!

I used the Cuttlebug's Forest branches embossing folder to create texture and dimension on the circles and tan cardstock border at the bottom of the page.

Be sure to head over to Bella Blvd to enter to win this AMAZING GIVEAWAY!!! It is worth around $600!!!
A huge thank you to Provo Craft for their generosity! I had a blast playing with all your products!!
