I'm bumpin' Tammy

so that I can show you photos of Nicki's grad. I have over 200 proofs I have to go through... She was so pretty. And I was so proud.Loved her dress. (From Once Upon a Bride)The back of it was pretty too.This is one of the few photos I have of me from that day. That's a warning to all scrapbookers out there, hand over the camera!!LOL, I love this one of my girls.

And finally, check out her shoes! Yes! Converse! (Footlocker) The purple and green checkers went perfectly with her dress.

Thanx for letting me share! And my test went well, btw! It was about as hard as I thought it would be, but I don't get results for about 8 weeks. I know! 8 Weeks!! I need 61 to pass, so I'm feeling pretty confident. And if I do fail, I can take it again in Feb. so it's not the end of the world.

Have a good week! Don't forget to check out Tammy's peek in the post below this one!

This week's challenge:

Hi! sorry this is late today! I'm afraid the day got away from me. But I'm here now, ready to challenge you in the week ahead!

Are you ready for it?

Ready, set, 1, 2, 3,

Go!

Your challenge this week is to use a number as a title. Here's a layout of my mom and dad (taken on Mother's day) I traced a chipboard 2 onto a paper bag, and cut it out. I inked it up pretty good, and stuck it on a tag that I'd stamped on with some of the drool-worthy stamps from Tim Holtz.
I had some of the circles that I'd punched out from previous projects, and laid them out, and sprayed with mist over the background. I used a clock stamp in a few circles. And I also stamped little circles, using the end of a pencil.There's some masking tape. Some random sewing. Another stamped up tag that I punched butterflies out. A little lace. Just a fun, junked up layout, dontcha think?

so now it's your turn, use numbers as your title. Use a number to signify the number of kids you have. Or do a countdown to (or from) a holiday. Use a number for age. Or perhaps your address? There are so many possibilities!

Any questions or comments? I love to hear from you and I read all your comments, even when they're not directed to me, lol

Have a good week! See you later!

Off on another adventure

I was approved for a last minute thing at work. I am off on another adventure for a week. Dont worry, the challenge will still be posted on Monday as usual. The others will be chatty as usual.

I cant wait to see what they have cooked up for you all next week! I love coming back and checking the blog and seeing the inspiration and layouts and stories from everyone.

Hope you do to!

On a scrapbooking note, I was browsing scrapbooking websites for inspiration the other day. I found this layouts. I *heaert* it. I am going to be lifting it soon. Very very soon. I love the large photo and then all the tiny tiny ones. The only differences I would make would be to use different pictures in the tiny ones, not the same as the large and make it into a 2 pager.....but watch for it when I get back.

Have a great weekend. Take lots of pictures (I know I will be!). Have a safe and happy Canada Day :)

busy weekend

So my busy weekend is finally arriving. We start today with Darby's graduation from grade 5 into junior high. Tonight, we have Mass for my oldest daughter's graduation from grade 12. Tomorrow we run around for hair appointments, make-up appointments, pictures, and trying to find someone to tie Nicole's boyfriend's tie as we prepare for grad. Saturday we head up to Edmonton, so that Sunday I can write my optician's exam. I'm tired just thinking of it!
You know there will be tonnes of photos taken from me.
The following is a layout I did of Nicki's hair trial. I chose the song title "The best is yet to come" (by Hedley) as a play on words. The photos were of her hair and make-up trial for grad, and so she has another day of playing princess yet. But also, she has a wonderful lifetime ahead of her yet. I thought it suited the page well.
I think she's beautiful at the best of times, but her hair and make-up made her especially pretty that day. There's a little misting. Some butterflies emerging (like her). Some ink.The layout also has an envelope (from Maya Road) that I plan on slipping some personal journaling in for her to read one day. I'm so proud of her, and I'm sure I'll cry not just at her grad, but at her little sister's too. My girls are growing up so fast!

So have a good weekend. I'm glad to hear Kari's doing ok. You're in my thoughts girlie!! I'll let you all know when I'm back from Edmonton. Take care, happy scrapping!

Sorry in advance

this is NOT scrapbooking related.

I just got an update on Kari and she is doing ok :) Sore but ok. Glad our leader is slowly recouperating. Thought I would share as everyone has been worried about her.
