Back at it :)

I made this before I left for vacation...it was the invitation to my daughter's Luau birthday. It was a great time. I used the Life's a Beach Cartridge, $1 ribbon I found at Michaels, Stampin Up Ink Pads Lavender Lace, and Green Galore to distress. Love the color combination. :)

Happy July to everyone!!! I can't believe that it is July already. We are at my sister's in Phoenix enjoying some real family family time. This a card I made before I left and thought it turned out cute. Pretty simple techniques but a fun card.

Monthly Challenge So Far So Good :)

I have been doing something everyday! I am so proud even if it's something little. My daughter and I played with shrinky dinks and the cricut today!!! It was so much fun! We only used one paper but she keeps coming back for more :) Some were done with the Cricut, but the little flowers were the Stampin Up Punch. Colored in with permanent markers, learned they get a lot LOT darker when you shrinky.

Cleaning...Organizing....Cleaning...Organizing & Vinyl

I have been busy mad cleaning in my scrapbook room trying to become more efficient... I also made some signs for the cars :) I am in love with vinyl!!! Right now I am looking for a better way to store and organize my stamps. I seem to have trouble knowing what I have so I use them more... hmmm another mission :)

Happy Father's Day to Everyone!!!

Had a great day with my husband and daughter! Everything Daddy wanted to do (and a trip to Joann's). My daughter and I scrapbooked yesterday, thats a great step in my mission for creativity. We completed an entire Disney 8 1/2 x 8 1/2 album in a couple hours. It was for her friend's birthday. Today I have been working on card ideas for my daughters upcoming Luau 8th Birthday Party!!! I tried to take a picture of a couple Disney pages before we wrapped it but they didnt turn out so hot :(

Update...

I have been creating, not as much as I'd like to but I am vowing to become more regular about it. I have been doing a lot of projects for my daughter's school. I have a lot of pending projects so I am going to get them done. Thanks to all the blogs that have inspired me!!!

I MUST SCRAPBOOK!!!

I am an avid scrapbooker. I see the world in 12x12 pages. Everywhere I go I see a page or an idea and I must get them down somewhere!!! I have 15 books I have made in 7 years for my family and dozens for others.
