I did some layouts today...one from the Cali trip and the other is of Bree's baby girl. Bree sent the announcment to me about a month or so ago and I didnt want it to get messed up because it was so pretty so I scrapped it! The baby layout I used another great sketch from http://ericassketchit.blogspot.com/

2 GREAT quotes!!!

Today was a sluggish kind of day. I did walk the treadmill for 20 minutes which makes me happy. Thats TWO days in a roll! woo hoo! I didn't get any scrapping done so I will do 4 layouts tomorrow! I HAVE TO!

I made these two picture quotes tonight. I used photoshop to add the words and got the pictures just by goggling images. I think they are so pretty!

Today was a GREAT day!!!

It did start off a little bad because I woke up from a very bad nightmare but as the day went on it got really good. I got ALOT done which makes me happy. I am going to continue to try to get alot done like this everyday. I did dishes, got a load of laundry done, cleaned up the house a little, walked the threadmill for 20 mins (today was my first day since my back had been hurting me a few weeks ago), took a shower and even scrapped two layouts from the Cali trip. My goal up untill the Vegas trip in 66 days is to walk the threadmill every day from Mon-Fri. and do at least 2 layouts a day to get the Cali trip all finished up.
I used two sketches from http://ericassketchit.blogspot.com/ . She has some awesome sketches check them out! I promise you will love them! Here are the two layouts I did. The pics were takin from our San Fran trip back in Sept.

Stamped all day...

MaryJane got to my house at around 9:00 this morning and we did some stamping. It was lots of fun! I got 2 8x8 layouts done for Pink Cat Studio, one card done for PCS and 3 other cards with mine and MaryJane's new stamp sets from Stampin Up! I just totally LOVE my new skunk set! I can't wait to stamp a pink skunk hehe! I didn't scan one of the cards I made because I sent it with MaryJane to give to MaryAnn, a lady I used to work with that made me the CUTEST scarf...so it was a thank you card to her. Here are the others I made.

Valentine Day Craze

Since Sunday I have been scrapping & stamping my little heart out! I have made 25 Valentine cards, 15 Birthday cards for a swap that I joined on Sunday with Valerie's (not me a friend) Stampin Up Demonstrator and altered 8 candy bar wrappers. The reason why I've been working so hard on the Valentine Day stuff is because my cousin's wife sells flowers, balloons etc. during the Valentine holiday and she asked if I would like to sell some of my cards and stuff. So I thought I'd give it a try and since I only have a few days to get ready for this I have been real busy. I figured It would be a great way to get some extra cash for the Vegas trip in April which is 2 months, 2 day and 6 days (thanks Becky for your ticker hehe) away from today. I am so excited for that day to come its going to be so much fun!

Here are the cards that I have made for the sale and swap. I made 6 of each card for Valentines. I still have 7 more candy wrappers to do and I really want to get some 3x3 cards done as well...but we will see how things go tomorrow. I have to get ready to go to El Paso with my cousins and go SHOPPING WOO HOO! we are staying there for the night then coming back Sat. So we will see how much I get done tomorrow.

Why I Scrapbook...(blog challenge)


The reasons why I scrapbook is mainly for myself. I always think um who will look at my work after I pass on??? I don't have kids. I do have a younger brother so I guess it would mainly be for him if he would even want them haha! For the ones that know me they know that I do not work and can't work because of my disability. I am really glad I have grown to love scrapbooking. It makes me feel so good when I can be an inspiration for others. I love the feeling after finishing a page and saying WOW! Scrapbooking makes your pictures look so awesome and so much fun to look at over and over again. Its so much fun to learn all the new things that come with this hobby. It never seems to get boring because there are always so many new things coming out each and everyday. I wouldn't know what I would be doing with my life today if I didn't have this fun hobby to keep me busy with.
