Scrapaholic???

So lately I've been doing a lot of scrapping, which is good. I have been joining a couple groups, meeting some new ppl, and even started my own facebook group called "scrapitude" (which I'm hoping starts to pick up in followers and participation soon :) Also, thinking on holding some workshops at Wendy's Clicka Foto studio...she keeps telling me to make the jump, but I am not sure what is holding me back. I'm guessing the pressure and my whole huge fear of failure. Other than that I'm game, lol. I'm also going to look into making a different website for myself that is more custom, so if anyone has any suggestions I am all ears!

It's amazing how life just changes...10 years ago, I may have been out w/friends on a Saturday night or having some ppl over to watch movies, but these days I'm sitting in the kitchen crafting away with Jay-bug while Sophie is getting into absolutely everything. I am absolutely content with my life at this point. Although sometimes I feel like too much of a homebody and would like to get out and have a couple drinks/laughs with friends. For now, I'll just enjoy my quiet weekends of lounging around the house for now, doing what I love...being w/my man and babies...oh yeah and scrapping :)

It's been awhile...

So, apparently in December when the most happens I find no time to blog...what's up with that?!? Had dinner tonight with the ladies at Texas Roadhouse.  I had me a Jamaican cowboy (margarita...lol) and boy was it good.  I almost wish I would have had my camera with me b/c I have plenty of ideas for a LO of the outing, but no pic to go with it...sad :(  

If any of you are facebookers, please join my Scrapitude group and post those wonderful LO's of yours.  It has sparked some great ideas for me already.... I love seeing what others have done!  

business card

Well I've been trying to come up with a business card and I think I'm satisfied with what I've done. I think it's cute...let me know what ya think :)

The Power of Doodling...

Lately I've been all about doodling. I think I doodled at least one page in the mini albums I made. I like it...it's eclectic and fun. Takes me back to the days when I wouldn't be listening in math class and would be doodling instead of taking notes. I love this picture Wendy (http://web.me.com/clicka_foto) took of Sophie. If she had hair she would totally be blowing it out of her eyes, lol! Look at that face - doesn't it just scream "c'mon already."

Mini Album Madness

WOW...It has been awhile since I last posted. I would've thought now that volleyball is done that I would have a little more time on my hands, but it seems that this is not the case. We had a volleyball banquet today and I made a mini album for each of my girls - 13. So, I guess I can't say that I haven't been busy. I made them all different from each other too based on what I thought would fit each girl's personality.

I had a lot of fun making these and I really hope the girls enjoy them. I love the felt 4x4 albums...they were so cute. Got them from this terrific site www.live2scrap.com!!

I didn't put all the pages I did on here, but I think you get the gist... I'm sad to say this is the only album I took pictures of. I know...maybe I can talk those girls into taking pictures of theirs and sending them to me??? I really need to start doing that more often so I can keep track of what I've made.

Fall Beauty...

I didn't get to take the pictures of the girls for fall that I wanted. You know the pumpkin patch or playing in leaf piles, but I took these today and I must say I'm really happy with the way they turned out.

I even was able to scrapbook (traditional style) tonight some of the pictures I took. I think it turned out well! :) Fall has to be my absolute favorite time of the year! The beautiful colors, the mild weather -- it's just an amazing time and I'm glad I get to portray some of that fall beauty through my girls.

"That looks AWESOME!!!"

You know I think it's great to scrapbook the huge milestones of your kids... birth, baptism, first everythings, etc. However, I think it's more important to scrap the every day events. Today I picked up Little Caesars. Jayden immediately said to me as I got in the car, "That looks AWESOME!" I love it - it makes my heart smile :)
