She's All That!

My Dear Friend Stephie and I scrapbooked last night till about 1am. I was getting a little sleepy so I had to kick her out ! hahaha... It's always fun to scrap with someone else sometimes but then there are moments when your Scrappy Friend says " Are you Scrappin Her Again?!" In a joyful way of course .. and I replied YES! Yes I am!!!

I don't have many photos as most of you know .. my little nieces are a few hours away from me and her mom doesn't take many pics..( HINT HINT!) the only pics i have are the ones I've stollen off Facebook for them... and well I am limited. So yes, I have scrapbooked my older nieces again!

Hopefully soon i'll have more pics but for now .. it's to my current stash of G and S!

She's All That!

Basic Grey Lemonade papers were used for this page, and my gobs of glitter!
And i'll let you all know that next week I do have a pic of hubby that i'm scrappin!! It's only 11 years old but it's still good! hahahah Stephie! XOXO

Mon Scrapbook Reveal #2

It's Sunday today and that means my layout #2 at MonScrapbook is revealed!
I am really enjoying this kit .. it's filled with nice bright colors and of course My Little Shoebox never disappoints!

This is a layout I created of my niece being " Playful "





So nice and bright isn't it? and that black cardstock is perfect to show off those colors. Speaking of Cardstock... Um when i was playing with this page I had a black embossed piece of cardstock that came with the kit .... I started painting the edges to showcase the embossed work and um.. I goofed!

this is what the layout looked like .. I didn't like it so I removed the black painted cardstock and added a plain one!



HOpe you have a fabulous Sunday! It's going to be nice and sunny here today. Maybe a day trip for hubby and I... or just relaxing in the hammock!

I'll have another Mon Scrapbook Reveal next Sunday so I hope you'll stop by!
Don't forget to add yourself as a follower and let me know ... I have a rak at the end of the month for one lucky lady!

Chow for Now!

I won, I won!

I can barely contain Myself!
I won a collection pack of Cosmo Cricket Jolly by Golly!


Way back when Cosmo Cricket was introducing their new releases.. they had a contest and Jill from A Million Little Things was a winner... Jill wanted to share the prizes with her blog readers and YUP.. I was chosen! WOOP WOOP! I love a million little things and it's often the first site I check in the morning... the NEW Products section in the store that is!

Thanks for 4 sharing JILL and I look forward to getting these new YUMMY Cosmo Cricket Goodies!

Scrappin Outside!

yes, exactly what the title says!!! Hubby went to work today for 12:30pm and I wanted to go outside and sit.. but sometimes I get so bored just sitting there watching the clouds go by. So today, I decided to take some scrap supplies out ( limited amounts!) and scrapbook. I must say I had a blast!!! The wind was perfect, I had a cold beer and I had a place on my patio table with perfect lighting .... aaaah... fabulous day!

I finished 2 pages.. 1 of them I can show you.. the other will be for the Creative Scrappers Reveal on August 16th. I am way ahead of myself!!

I used these fabulous papers from Sultane, a Manufacturer based out of France - You can get these papers at MonScrapbook.com ... CLICK HERE!


The layout is called Back Home...
When we open the door to the back porch ... this is what we say to him ... Every time!!!

- Be Good, Stay out of trouble, if you get in trouble RUN RUN RUN Back Home -
this is usually followed by a Love You Buzz Buzz! ... yes we are crazy for our kitty!!!!


Chow for Now!

GDT Sneak Peek!

I woke up early this morning and for some reason my scrap table was calling my name... I usually don't scrap till late at night but today was an early day. I played with a few papers from my Mon Scrapbook.com kit and finished my page due to be revealed this Sunday! I know, I am early .. BONUS!

Here is a sneak peek for you..

you'll have to come back on Sunday to see my first attempt at completing this page and my final version! I goofed and decided to change my background.. I love the end result.

Other than that.. Hubby and I had a little photoshoot today... more of Eddie than anything but i did get a great pic of hubby...

Isn't he just so sexy?! LOL!!!

I am so tired tonight.. my eyes are heavy and so dry. It's going to be an early night!
Hubby and I just shared about 3 hours outside in the sun, I did my fair share of swinging in the hammock and enjoying a few Bud Light Lime! ... Our weeks are so busy working shift work and traveling to and from work that sitting down relaxing sometimes feel sooo good!

I hope you had a great day and enjoyed some quality time with family and friends!

Talk again soon!

Mon Scrapbook Reveal

My first layout created with the Mon Scrapbook August Kit is revealed today!
I used the Creative Scrappers Sketch #63 for this page and Loved the nice bright colors My Little Shoebox offers. I don't think I've ever used transparencies on a page, so this was a challenge for me. I soon realized how simple it was to cut out the element I wanted, add a bit of glimmer mist with my finger/sponge and VOILA! The not so white transparency works well with my page.


I have 3 more layouts to do with this yummy kit and my next layout will be revealed next Sunday.

Have a Fabulous Week !
