It's Beginning to Look a lot Like Christmas

I have to scrapbook pics of Christmas in the summer because by the time I have finished with my craft sale and the xmas workshops...I'm done!!!  It's fun in the summer to think about Christmas fun!!!  It was also one of the first layouts I have completed with the large flip flaps.  One was 8x12 and the other 4x12.  I love how it turned out!

 

I think this was part of the Believe WOTG...maybe????

 

Thanks for looking.  Have a great day!!!

My hero

I love how close my boys are!!!  They are such good friends now, I really hope it continues throughout their lives.  These pics were last years first day of school pics and for me they sum up how close they are.  Does this happen to you where you love the pictures so much that it's hard to do the layouts?   I love how these layouts turned out...but yep it was a struggle to get them started.  All layouts used CTMH superhero papers.  I embossed the chipboard stars to mimick the paper. 

 

Layouts 23/52

Cards 10/30

Books Read 41/52

Happy Fall & finally some layouts :)

I can't believe how fast September is flying by.  Both kids are in swimming lessons in school already.  My grade 3'er ran in his very first cross country track meet and we are very proud of him!!!  Running really isn't his thing but he wanted to join and had a great time.  He's excited to join again next year!!!  

 

Well I am happy the fall season is here!!!  It's my favorite time of year!!  So here are a couple of layouts using last year's Bo Bunny fall line and 2009's fall pics. 

 

 

 

 

 

5th Anniversary

Saturday was a big day...I got to reveal my new space to my club regulars and we celebrated our 5th anniversary together.  We have had a few people come and go but there has been a core group since day one.  Ctmh has brought me some really great friends and I am very thankful they have stuck with me so long!!!

Here are some more pics of my room...there are a few last things that still need to be done.  We are going to add crown molding .

and need to frame out the quote with molding...and add a t.v :)

Here's my girls in action...we cropped all day to celebrate!

Back soon with some actual artwork :)

Anyone still there????

So I have been missing from the crafting world for a couple of months while we renovated our basement.  My craft room has been in boxes while we braced our basement walls and switched a few things around.  This was my old craft room...I forgot to take pics before I tore it apart :(

 

 

 The kids had so much fun helping!!!

 

And the craft room becomes the new toy room!!!
