My One Little Word...

for 2012 is ESTABLISH. For several years now I have jumped on the band wagon along with many other scrapbookers and have joined Ali Edwards in selecting a word that I strive to use everyday in my life. I try to pick a word that will have meaning to me and others around me. I picked Establish for so many reasons. I want to establish a better relationship with my daughter and her husband. I want to establish a better relationship with my twin boys. I want to establish a better relationship with my sister. Most of all I want and need to ESTABLISH and maintain a better relationship with my husband. The list could go on and on of things I want to better establish and that is why I picked that as my word. Over at Scrapbook Circle they are having a little challenge about goals and using your one little word and this is what I came up with
Have a wonderful day and thanks for looking.

Merry Christmas.....

I hope all my readers out there have a Merry Christmas. Remember this man is watching!!!
I did take a little time to work on a layout for Lasting Memories and the challenge this time was to use a photo they posted as inspiration and you could use the sketch as well. I used the colors from the photo and that the fact the small boy was lying down, I also used the sketch. and this is also for my DT Entry for Lasting Memories as well...fingers crossed.

In other news...I did not make the final cut for Creative Memories...a little sad, but it happens in the scrapbooking world. I will now show what I made for them...

Another One Done!!!

I had a chance to finish one more layout this weekend before I had to actually get some real work done....gah I hate reality sometimes!!! Anyways, I did this layout for ScrapFit and Sketches In Thyme. Scrapfit's challenge was to journal ‘go around’ the outside of something. It can go around the outside of you page, around your photo or even around an embellishment. Show us how you journal around!
Sketches In Thyme's challenge this week was an Open Challenge so I used a sketch from Ideas for Scrapbooker's Here is the sketch...
and here is my take on this sketch...
I did my journaling all around the layout about what it takes to be friends.

Working for the Weekend...

I got a couple of layouts finished over the weekend and since the weekend is not officially over I still have more scrapping to do!! Anyways here are two of the layouts I have done so far...This first one is for Scrapfit and the challenge was
Numbers, numbers and more numbers! Lets see a layout or card with lot and lot of numbers. Show us how your numbers add up! I did a layout of my Brother in Law's 2nd birthday...
The next layout is for Lily Bee and it was a sketch challenge, but you had to use at least two Lily Bee products here is the sketch...
and this is my take on the sketch... this is a layout about one of my twin boys finally getting out of the hospital after being in there after a month and being able to meet his Uncle Tim. Lily Bee products used for this layout are: Black Licorice - Harvest Market, Turtleneck - Harvest Market, Seize the Day - Picket Fence, and Memorandum Index Journaling Cards
