Just another LO!

Not much today, just wanted to share a LO that I did for a progressive scraplift at Justcre8. One person scraplifts the original LO, then another person scrapbooks the next LO and so on. It is fun to see the results. The vine is cut from a piece of PP and pop dotted!

Diggin' In

Diggin' in to my over whelming scrap pile! This was done with a bunch I pulled out, just pieces that I liked as individual papers, and whipped them together....I will have to do this more often, I really like how it turned out! Count them "7" different pattern papers!


Simple Sunday....

The usual today, slept in a bit, shopped at Costco and the grocery store, cleaned a bit and now sitting down to relax before going back to the Monday work grind. Yesterday's post inspired me to pull out this fab line of paper by KP and do a little 6 x 12! This lo is about how every once and a while I peek out from behind the camera to have my picture taken....it is a rare sighting! I used a great new stamp from Justcre8 that simulates inked bubble wrap, I can tell you that you will be seeing this a lot from me!

Week 3 - 365 photos

Well this week was a little tough getting all my photo's taken, I was away in Atlanta for work and did not take my camera, got to remember to pop in my bag my little digital for days that I am not home. Trying to get to a point where a SOOC (Straight out of the Camera) looks good to me..slowly I am getting there....still trying to figure out my new flash..
Day 9 - Tilly soaking up the sun.



Day 10 - My favourite ice cream that you only can get in the Winter....Winter White Chocolate


Day 11 - I love the knobs on my Grandma's old sideboard...

Day 16 - Time is always flying to quickly.

Day 17 - My side kick while I scrapbook and a shot of my messy table.


That is for this week...keep on visiting and sharing your own 365 pictures on your blog!

Dancing to the music and scrappin'

Seems like music makes my mojo come back.....here are a few from today. I was away this week for work and wanted to create so bad it was killing me! I did manage to make a stop at M's and picked up a few items to quell the need. Hope everyone had a great week. Bye for now and enjoy. Tomorrow I will post 365 pictures for those who are following.

Excuse the bad photos, winter darkness is making photography hard..

This was for a challenge over at the Nook. For my BOM and what I do at night.




Another for a Nook challange, 30 minutes or less. Can you beleive it, I suprized myself that I could do it.





Just messing around making stuff with bits....

Week 2 - 365

Well this is turning into the bits and bob's of my life. A little of this or that, what ever symbolizes what has happened in my day. Taking this opportunity to play with photoshop, as well as my macro lens...so enjoy the journey into trying to make photography into art.

Day 4 - Geocaching





Day 5 - Girls Best Friend




Day 6 - Berries - macro lens




Day 7 - Yummy Fresca



Day 8 - Close Up - Creepy but neat you can see the camera, but you can also see the chair and stuff behind the camera...interesting a reflection in my glasses.

Happy Scrappy Day..

Just a few from the last little bit and from today. I am going to try to SB more this year and be a better blogger...we will have to see about that...


This is a place we go to play with the chick-a-dees. They are so brave and come sit on you.


Spelunk house is in Bonaire and I love this place. Very simple LO but effective I think.



Some pics of QC from the fall when I was there on a conference.



More Chicks.....this LO grew and grew and grew it started out simple and then I kept adding.

Enjoy everyone off to scrap some more....please enjoy...J
