I'm on a mission.


To get published, so I'm attempting CK's Becky's sketch, we'll see. This layout took me forever because I kept over analysing every little detail, (probably the reason I don't submit things, too critical of myself) but I love it. I doodled a fact about my girl on each tag. It's really a simple layout, I just wanted it to be perfect. Happy Scrappin...

What's Happening???

Not much. I've actually been a little sick, so I haven't done much in a couple of day's. I did manage to come up with a layout for my submission for the American Crafts dt, we'll see what happens. I still need one more layout, they want two. I'm hoping I do better than I did with Cosmo. I'll just give it a try and see what happens. Everyone have a great weekend.

I didn't get chosen

but that's okay. Cosmo Cricket posted there finalist today and my name was left off the list, oversight I'm sure, but I get a $5.00 gift certificate, so it's all good. I'll just try somewhere else. I'm down, but not out... Have a great day.

Happy Fathers Day!


I'm a blessed girl. My dad is the best dad in the whole world. I love him to pieces. I'm also a huge daddy's girl, so really he can do no wrong in my eyes. Happy Father's Day daddy....


Also to the man who is so great to my children and treats them as if they were his own. Happy Father's Day ReRe...

I've been scrappin!

and that's all i've been doing. Non stop! My area is a mess, but I'm having the time of my life. I'm so glad school is out and that I'm able to be home and do whatever I want, which is scrappin. I'm working on a few different projects right now, trying to catch up before I go back to work in August, not that I get behind because if I'm not at work I'm scrappin, it's a well balanced life. It's my life, and I love it...

Back from GASC!!!



I had the time of my life. Took some classes, spent some money, saw a ballgame, ate too much. This was my second year going and I must say this time was so much better than last year. I went with a good friend, and exposed her to the real world of scrappin, she will never be the same, but that's what friends are for... I know I wasn't holding many bags in this picture, but I had already made several trips to the car when this picture was taken...

GASC! This Weekend!

So I'm off tomorrow morning for the Great American Scrapbook Convention, YIPPEE!!! I went last year, but took a teenager and didn't have enough fun. So this year my friend and I will be going and taking a couple of classes, doing a lot of shopping, and I think we will even be going to Ranger Stadium for a ballgame. She goes for the nachos, I go because I like to sing "take me out to the ballgame", really you can't expect much more from girls... So I'm hoping for an event filled, hip and happening good time, and I will take pictures to post when I return. Have a great weekend.

Finally!


You have to love a Texas sunrise. Well I finally did it . I broke down and started my own blog. We'll see how well I keep it up. I have plenty to say. Lord knows I can't keep my mouth shut. My intention for this blog is just to post a bunch of different things about what I like and do. So basically you'll be hearing about scrapbooking and my kids, and you'll see some recipes from time to time, and hopefully a lot of layouts and pictures of those I love. Enjoy!
