How 'bout we get some glue...

This is Katrina's new thing. Anytime ANYTHING is broken, she says, "I know! How 'bout we get some glue..." I do have about 18 different "glues" in my scrapbook room and I guess she knows it and thinks they can be used to fix anything and everything.

All the canvas is ripped off of their swing set/fort? No problem. We'll get some glue.


The leash for her Puppy in her Puppy Purse was chewed in half? No problem. We'll get some glue.

This is going to be a new scrapbook page.

Here are some layouts:




Technique Tuesday's Boulder Boutique Font. I just love it!!





More Boulder Boutique, Main Street Small, Whispy Gigs, Fall on Me & Twinkle Twinkle.


Paper is Daisy Buckets.

You knew I'd be scrapping this picture sooner than later, right? ;)


Lots here. Functuation Too; Signed, Sealed & Delivered, Inner Circle & Peaceful Easy Framing.


This one was just for me. :) I'm waiting and waiting for the new Sassafras-Lass sneak peek and so I thought I'd make a layout with some that I had on hand.

Technique Tuesday Big Timber font.

Thanks for looking. :D

Some Layouts




New Technique Tuesday: New York Frame of Mind. I stamped the white twill so it would match the frame. I even colored the twill in with watercolor pencils and my Dove Blender. I also added Stickles and Liquid Pearls.







What? Don't you like Spongebob? I like to save clothing tags. I can't help it. It's just something I do. :blush:







It's Cosmo, baby.



This is one of those pages where the elements stick over the top of the page. I liked it. I'm not too sure about anyone else. ;) You have to experiment every once in awhile, right? Anyway, new BasicGrey.

Thanks for visiting. :D

Technique Tuesday

Technique Tuesday has a new blog!



Make sure you go there!


Here are some new Technique Tuesday layouts:


New: Beautiful Day; Signed, Sealed & Delivered, Loopy Labels
Previous: Skin Deep; Hanging by a Thread, Borderlines: Notions, FUNdamentals


New: Savannah medium
Previous: A Banner Year, Gee Whiz, other size Savannah fonts, chipboard

New: Savannah medium
Previous: other Savannah sizes, Dog & Pony Show, Metro Squares, Love Notes, chipboard

New: Bijou Borders, Celebrate Life, Lost in the Louvre, Start Me Up: Main Street
Previous: Main Street Small

New: Start Me Up: Broadway
This is actually a layout I did for an AL challenge at Peek.

Because once I start stamping I can't stop, here's another layout with previous releases:

Using Scribble Scrabble paper. Technique Tuesday: Well Worn Labels, Dog & Pony Show & Boulder Skyline. I used watercolor pencils and a Dove blender to color in the font.

Can you see the chipboard? I found a cool technique by total accident. I had ink on the back of my hand and it ended up on my nearly finished layout. I thought to myself , "Self, before you rip it apart and start over, try spraying some Technique Tuesday cleaner on it. Oh, and go wash your hands!" Well, it did nothing but grease up my cardstock BUT look what it did to the chipboard (that was already attached).

It gave it spots. I left it because I liked the way it looked and her puppy purse had spots on it.
I'm going to play with this technique some more at a later date.

It's been a month?



I can't believe it's a month since I updated.



I'm tired. I'm happy the holidays are over. They are always so stressful for me as they include several birthdays.






Here are some layouts:






Making Memories Funky Vintage





Renae's House (CI) - Carole's Christmas





KI Pop culture


Mustard Moon - Sew it Seems



Ooooo...a 2 pager! ;) 2007 in review.



Autumn Leaves Challenge


I have a TON of Technique Tuesday layouts to share. I'll do that tomorrow.

Uploads for the 15th

Can it really be the 15th already?

The theme at Peek was Scrapper's Choice. I always call it "Monkey's Choice" but Pat insists it's "Scrapper's Choice".

Whatever.

;)



This is the name of the mall we go to each year to take our Christmas pictures. Yep. It's a mall.

Fancy Pants, Making Memories and Prima Pasties. Yeah, "pasties". What a horrible name for these.

My stamping is a bit crooked. It will drive me nuts for the rest of my life. I should probably just redo it and move on...




Daisy D's and Technique Tuesday. I wanted to document Katrina's wish list this year. I just had her sign it. Trent told her, "That's a horrible 'a'". Poor thing.

You'll get to see his, ummmm, perfect handwriting next week. I did a LO for the LSS with a similar design but he wrote his own letter.

Oh, and this picture was taken at La Encantada, too.

Thanks for looking. :D

Woah! I need to update!

It's been awhile since I've added any layouts!

First, let me say how excited I am to be a part of the Daisy D's 2008 Design Team!! I've loved Daisy D's for YEARS!!

Layouts from Peek:


For Daily peek: BasicGrey Fruitcake line.


For Daily Peek: CI Christine Adolph




The above two were for Favorite Christmas lines. They're Daisy D's.

What else would I pick?
Scrapper's Choice is next upload. Want to take a guess what it's going to be? ;)

This one was just for me. Sassafrass Lass. It matches the Cub Scout Tiger uniform perfectly.


Here's a fast and simple one I did for the LSS:

That sleeping in between the bed and the nightstand could be so comfy?

Rain Gutter Regatta






This is what we did today. The Boy Scouts held their annual Rain Gutter Regata. Trent had a great time! I took a ton of pictures and here are just a few.

Recognize the skull and canon balls? Hambly helped Trent decorate his sail. ;)
Why is Katrina a little sad? Her boat sunk. :(

Mud





It was discovered today that Katrina really likes mud. *sigh* I was in my scraproom making cards when I kept hearing squeals of laughter and thumps against the window in the kitchen. When I walked out, I saw mud all over one of my kitchen windows and then I saw Katrina nearly ankle deep in mud. She turned the hose on and let one section of our dirt backyard fill up. I usually hear the water running but I didn't this time.

Katrina is 4 today. Her birthday party theme was High School Musical. What else would it have been?

The new look



This is the look I get when I ask if I can take her picture. Every Thursday morning, Katrina and I volunteer in Trent's classroom. We brought cupcakes in to celebrate her birthday that is coming up on Sunday. Trent's teacher is so nice and includes her in lots of activities in the class. She made her a birthday crown. I wanted to take her picture and this is what I get.

Also, note the HSM shirt. The only time she takes it off is when I wash it and then she puts it back on as it comes out of the dryer.

An update

My husband (of all people) informed me today that I had not updated my blog in awhile.
Ok, so it's been nearly a month. I have no idea how that happened!!

Here are some new layouts:



Autumn Observations. It's Daisy D's. What else would it be? ;)





I just love the new Sassafrass Lass line. It mixes so well with Daisy D's, too. ;) This was an assignment at Peek to use paint, ink & stamps.


Here's a couple I made for the new LSS I'm going to be working and teaching at. I can't believe I'm going to be teaching!! I'm so EXCITED!!




I am so thrilled and excited to have this fantastic store right down the street from me. If you're in Tucson (or anywhere in Arizona) and reading this, PLEASE let me know!! The trip to Pages In Progress will be so worth it. I promise!! It's going to be a fantastic store and I'm so lucky to be a part of it! They are carrying EVERYTHING and then some. I can't even tell you in words how big this store is. I'll try to get some pictures and post them...
