The Graduate & Blog Hop

It's time for another blog hop for Bitten By the Bug. This week, Regina asked us to use the ribbon Paper Pups cart. The first thing I thought of was when Liberty graduated the Petsmart classes.


All you have to do is just leave a comment on my blog for a chance to win this set of Technique Tuesday stamps:


When you're done, please visit Penny's blog for another chance to win more goodies. I'll choose a random winner by Friday.

Thanks for stopping by. :D

Simply the Cutest Thing Around

CuHere's another cut from The Cutting Cafe. I think that arrow is so cute!

Winner of Cutting Cafe cuts

Random.org chose two winners. They are: Terri and Jaspere. Terri, I'll send you the pumpkin cut and Jaspere, I'll send you the school house cut.

Thanks everyone for all your kind comments.

Here's a layout:


I saved several tags from the school clothes this year.

My Mom is a fames scrapbook werker

I found that sentence on some of Trent's schoolwork. He was writing sentences about his home and his family.

Reading that made my day!

I asked him what made me a famous scrapbooker and he said, "'cuz you're really good!" Ok, everybody say, "awwwwwww....".

The layout below was ripped apart three times before I finally decided to just accept it. I worry and fret over every little detail of every page I do but in actuality, my son doesn't really care. He thinks my pages are awesome (fames) anyway.

Searching for the Perfect Pumpkin

Here's a new cut at The Cutting Cafe. Isn't that little pumpkin cute?

I'm doing a give away for both of these cuts! The School House cut is from my previous entry. Leave me a comment and I'll draw two winners on Sunday. Let me know which cut you'd prefer. :D

Back to School House

I am so excited to announce that I am now designing projects for Regina at The Cutting Cafe. Here is my first item:

The school house, the apple, the pencil and the "Welcome Back to School" title is all from her site. Check out all the great digi stamps she has.

Thanks Regina!

Also, I'm going to be giving away the Back to School House cut on Sunday. If you're interested, all you have to do is leave a comment on my blog. I'll let random.org will pick a winner.

Last week's card

Ooops, I forgot to upload last week's card for Bitten By The Bug.

We were to use the scallop tag from the Celebrations cart.

Free Sunday

No work today. Whew! It's nice to have a day off on a weekend.

We watched a couple movies today and now Erik is making hamburgers on the grill. Actually, he's making Juicy Lucys. I think it was a Man vs. Food episode where restaurants were putting cheese inside the burgers.

School started last Thursday. My youngest is now in Kindergarten. :(

Here are some layouts:

October Afternoon Ducks in a Row Katrina's teacher gave us this note the day before school started. I cried just reading it.
