I'm still here

I thought I should post something, seeing as I haven't added anything in awhile. I have been trying hard to finish some cards for my first craft show I am attending with my sister on October 25th. I'll be sure to share them with you after the craft show is over. I'm anxious to get back to scrapbooking, and will hopefully have something new to share with you soon.

Carvin'

Another Halloween layout. I created this following a challenge at Scraptivity. The challenge was to create a layout following instructions given. I have to be honest, I wasn't prepared to glue anything down until I got to the end. It turned out pretty good...although it's not something I would generally create (i.e. the handwritten journalling).

I've been trying to make Christmas cards lately. Note the key word, "trying". I get all these great ideas, but they don't seem to work very well. So I gave up on cards for a little while and decided to finish the Halloween layout I've been working on. Thanks for looking.

I took the day off today and had the entire day to myself, since both Hunter and Hope were at school. After doing dishes, washing the floors and doing some laundry I made these Christmas cards. I can't take credit for third card; it is a complete lift from a card I saw at Splitcoaststampers. Check out the original:

SuperHeroes

Today I have a Halloween layout for you. It will be here before you know it. This layout is a picture of my son Hunter and his best friend Thomas on Halloween a few years ago. Hunter is dressed up as Superman and Thomas as Batman.

Another Zoey Page

It's so fun creating pages about my niece Zoey. It's hard to believe that she's 6 months old already. She is pretty much just born in this picture. So adorable. I created this layout loosely based on a sketch I found on the Prima website. The only thing I would change is where I put the rub-ons for her name. I don't like how the "y" is on her beautiful face.

Patterned paper is Daisy Bucket Designs. Ribbon is Close to my Heart. Flowers are Prima. Jewels I found at Michaels. The flourishes are Quickutz. Rub-on letters are Making Memories.
