I turned the sketch around.  Usually I use a solid color for the background.  I am trying to use patterns more for my backgrounds in my layouts.  The supplies I used are Fancy Pants and Studio Calico.  Thanks for stopping by!

This Year/Sketch-N-Scrap Sketch #73

Hi everyone! I am so excited to share my first layout for Sketch-N-Scrap!  I have been a fan of SNS for awhile and now to be on their desgin team...I am so grateful! Here is their awesome sketch and my layout:




I went with some Halloween photos for this layout.  The supplies I used are My Mind's Eye, Bo Bunny and Dooddlebug Designs.  If you haven't please check out Sketch-N-Scrap.  They have some great sketches and prize!  
On a personal note, it was a different kind of Halloween for us this year.  The temperature that day dropped and then it started raining.  I really didn't want to go out in the rain and neither did Noah! He really doesn't like to dress up so I told him that I would take me for a milkshake. He agreeded.  It is kind of sad that he didn't want to dress up for Halloween.  He is growing up way to fast!  
Thanks for stopping by!

At 43/12 Tags of 2015 January

Hello everyone! I have been a fan of Tim Holtz for a long time.  This past weekend I did a tag for the 12 Tags of 2015.  Of course, mine looks nothing like his and I really need to go shopping!! Instead of doing a tag for New Year's I made a tag for me!  I like how it turned out! Hopefully by December I will get a lot better!! 

Here is a close up:

On a personal note, this is my sweet cousin Savannah.  It is sad, but I don't get to see my mom's side of the family that much.  Savannah was intrigued with my cameras and kept wanting me to take pictures of us, her, and everything in sight! I loved spending time with her!  Thanks for stopping by!

Yes/Stuck?! Sketches

Hi everyone! I got in some much neeeded scrap time this weekend!! Today I have a layout I did for Stuck?!.  I could not refuse this cute sketch. It was perfect for some pictures I took of my son.  Here is the sketch and my layout:



The supplies I used are We R Memory Keepers and Studio Calico.  I just need to add some journaling to it.  I titled this 'Yes' because he told me yes without arguing about doing it! I asked him to go outside so I could take some pictures of him and he why. No bribes, no crying, no grumbling! I couldn't believe it! 
Thanks for stopping by!!

You Are Nine




Last year I read a post from Katrina Kennedy she wrote about her son turning 8.  loved it! I wanted to do something sort of like it.  I am late since his birthday was Christmas Day. I still wanted to share it with you.  I plan on printing this out and saving it for him.  I hope you like it and enjoy.    


 Today you are nine years old! Wow! That tiny bundle of joy that God gave Bobby and I the greatest job of ever having, is now nine years old.  You have been a blessing to us.  I could not imagine a life without you. 



Right now you are still a little shy.

You are funny and silly.

You have a kind heart and I love this most about you.

You will, out of the blue, tell us that you love us.

You think macorroni and cheese is a vegetable.

You are good at spelling and math like your Dad.

You hold my hand on the way to school.

You love karate.

You love the claw machines at stores and will get whatever stuffed animal you can get.

You are a home body. 

You are impatience.

You don't like the beach and would rather be in the pool.

You like to ride in boats.


You love to eat grilled cheese sandwiches, cheese puffs, and pizza. 

You are the tallest one in your class.

You still love to snuggle.

You hate to dress up for Halloween.

You love to watch movies.


You love Transformers.

You are at the age right now where you think you know everything.

You are brave.

You are loved.
