Well SInce I Get Accused...

of sitting around all day and do nothing but scrap, I figured today I would do just that. I did 2 layouts so far. One was using up old supplies...Basic Grey of course, and adding 2 frames somewhere on the layout ( one cannot be frame your picture) so neither frame my picture. I put both of them off to the side and put notes in them.

The next layout is still using...yep old Basic Grey papers and 12 eyelets. So I added the eyelets and then added jute to it and crisscrossed the jute.

Kickin It Old School

okay I have posted tons of old pics of T when she was a baby and now here she is now...current. For this layout I used 3 different punches. One Martha Stewart Doily punch, Fiskars Scalloped Circle punch, and EK Success punch (forgot the name) it is the notebook paper looking tab thingie.

I did a layout of my daughter when she had her first birthday like 17 years ago.....ugh. I used some older Pink Paislee papers. For some reason I have been on this glitter kick. I have been using stickles on everything.

Here is a 2 page layout using up some old alphabet letters. I applied the letters on both pages and then painted over them. I even used X, Y, and Z oh I did not forget Q. I used some old Basic Grey paper. Gosh I have a ton of this stuff. I could have wallpapered my house with this.

Forgot to share a couple more...

I forgot to post a few other layouts I managed to do...my bad.









For the double valentines layout I used some American Crafts, now it is not old-old paper but it was the only old Valentines paper I had that fit this challenge.




For this layout I used some My Minds Eye Dreamy paper.

Okay so I have fallen off the blog thing for a week, Life is busy here. I last left off that we were on vacation/hockey tournament. Well Mr.B took second place in the tournament, I was really proud of him. The hockey continues and he played the end of season tournament over the weekend and the knocked out one of the teams, they have one more game to play and hopefully they will take 1st place. I have had a slow start getting back into the scrapping world, but I am trying. I did a few layouts on vacation and posted a few of those and now I will post some more. This one was done while on vacation, so excuse the bad lighting. I used Basic Grey's ( Figgy Pudding) I think. I don't remember now.



















For the Tub Time layout I used some Daisy D's Chloe Marie paper and some old Marah Johnson Stickers

Late Night....

It was a late night last night for some. Many drinks were drunk (not by me) and I wish I would have taken pictures of all the events. We did venture out yesterday afternoon and took the kids to http://www.kalahariresorts.com/wi/ this place was amazing. If you ever plan on going here plan on spending tons of money. I did squeeze in another layout yesterday, again this is T when she was 6 months old and I used 3 felt pieces. 2 of the pieces are purple flower shaped and in the center of the handmade flowers and the other is a little brown bird.

On Vacation....

I know I am supposed to be on vacation and I am, but I just had to bring my scrapping stuff with. I am not a pool person, Lord knows nobody does not want to see this body in a swimsuit. So while the daughter or husband is taking the younger one swimming I am scrapping. Now that is a vacation to me. It is hard for me to do most of the scrapping due to limited supplies but I did get one layout done so far and working on some more.

Now for this layout I used 3 pp's I used Basic Grey's Lollipop Shop the very first line of Basic Grey I ever bought.

Here are some pics so far of our vacay.....

SO for this layout I used some older Basic Grey again...Romani and I hand cut these 8 flowers from the paper. I wanted to add a little something to them so I added some bling to the middle. The title is using some Lolipop Shop Basic Grey letters that I have had forever and a day.

So I decided to let the music move me and set me free as well. I decided to post 2 times in one day. That is amazing for me. I am not to sure how I feel about this one of T. This was taken over this past summer while at band camp, this was her last year for marching band and I will miss going to her competitions. She really excelled at music. I used some old Creative Imaginations papers for this and the three fonts I used were by Pink Paislee (holly doodle, fashion script) and Doodlebug (hopscotch) I also used some clear transparency as well also by Creative Imaginations.

Oldie But Goodie....

Daisy D's are gone but not forgotten. I have hung on to some of their papers for a while and now I have decide to use them. (well some of them) I used the Chole Marie line for this layout and yes again this is T when she was a year old and she is now 18. I hand sewn 2 ribbons and layered them for the purple flower and added the ribbon leave for the flower. I also did a little paper weaving on the background.

Bring On The Old.....

papers, That is. I started digging in my stash of papers to use up some stuff that is laying around and I thought these would look good with these pictures. I used some older Basic Grey Perhaps line and Basic Grey Fusion line. This is a picture of T when she was 6 months old taken in Ohio. Gosh I am getting soooo old.
