Feeling the mojo?

I have been! It's been so great to sit back at the table and get some layouts done. Been working on some challenges from the LIITD members online crop, there are so many to choose from!



We're headed out to the lake to camp for a few nights, so I guess no scrapping will get done in the next week.... hopefully next weekend! :)

Feeling Scrappy?

Love is in the Details is having a summer long member-run online crop! Lots of challenges and games posted already and July isn't even halfway over!! If you aren't a member of the gallery/forum, I encourage you to join up and take part! Lots of the members are offering up prizes for their challenges so it's a great incentive ;) Click right HERE for the challenges, and become a member to have some fun!!!

This layout was done for one of Kim's challenges to use lots of techniques... so I inked, sanded, distressed, stickled, rounded my papers corners....


It's another dreary rainy day here, so I think I might just continue on with a few more challenges... :)

Scrappy Therapy!

I am so thrilled to report that my little guy's first open heart surgery went AMAZINGLY well, he is such a trooper... slowly getting back to his usual self but with more energy and a healthier appetite than ever before!! It is amazing what surgeons can do these days, his doctor performed a small miracle and saved a valve that they thought was kaput. He still might need it replaced eventually, but not right now which is a very very good thing. :)


But onto scrapping! I decided since Brayden and his Daddy took off to his brothers out of town and my other 3 kids are pretty self sufficient, I would sit at the table and see what I could accomplish. Sketchy Thursdays is always a great inspiration to me lately, so I thought I'd see what this weeks sketch was like! No printer ink, so I dove into the Disneyland pics that still need a home in my scrapbooks and found these 2 pictures of the divine creations they made on a daily basis. Almost too good looking to eat!!




Ooooh and I am soooo excited that for my birthday this year, my man bought me a Canon Rebel T3!!!! I'm slowly figuring it out, it'll take me awhile though... so right now it's a lot of automatic shots, no manual stuff just yet. In time, in time... ;)


Hope everyone is having a great weekend! Mine will continue to be a scrappy one.. even though it's so damp and muggy that my papers are all curling up at the edges as I work on a page... LOL!

I think my scrapping days are on hold for awhile.... as much as I hate to do it. :(


Brayden has been scheduled for his first heart surgery on June 27th... after a few months of waiting and pushing and waiting some more, we were given this date just this past Friday! Talk about moving quick once they finally got it going.


So now I have 8 sleeps to get everything ready for us, for Brayden, and for the other 3 kids to be at my moms for who knows how long.... 8 sleeps isn't a lot of time. LOL!! We'll be leaving Snow Lake on the 22nd, flying to Edmonton on the 23rd, pre-op and another test on the 24th, take the weekend to ourselves maybe walk around the mall ;) and then surgery on Monday the 27th. If you want to skip on over to the other blog I have just for him, please feel free... it will be updated as we go through this surgery and recovery!

Lookie what I found!

So I found some layouts that I haven't posted on my blog yet, I guess I just put them on the LIITD gallery and FB.... somehow I neglected to put them here. :) So to fill up part of my oh so exciting Saturday night... here they are! LOL!

Finding some time

I decided that since I missed the BIG Spring Crop at Love is in the Details in Miami, MB this long weekend, I would take a few hours today and sit at the scrap table, something I have not found much time for the last few months... I'm glad I did, it always reminds me how much I LOVE it...


This layout I whipped up using the weekly sketch at Sketchy Thursdays and I love how it turned out! Used some of my 'new' Basic Grey Aged&Confused 'Phresh&Phunky' paper!

I hope everyone had a great long weekend (it was a long weekend here in Canada, anyways! LOL!) and a has a fabulous week ahead :)
