  • i had a thought today. what if i took a photo of my scrapbook island once a week. no cleaning it up. just a photo of it as-is, with whatever i happen to have on it. i've seen people do this idea with their desks. taking a photo of their computer area and desk every day for a week.…

  • figured i would post a few random shots of us around the house. will tide this blog over for a day, until i come up with something else to post. alyssa and me tonight. do we look alike? i don't see it, but sometimes people tell me we do. other than the glasses. lol! excuse the flash,…

  • this here is one of my all time favorite layouts. i created this last new year's eve, and posted it on new year's day. i posted about this HERE. this was a lift of the amazingly talented sarah klemish. and my theory is "why mess with a good thing". it's a great design, and perfect…

  • a full 5 months ago, the new soccer season started up. we knew from the start that sarah's team was great. they had a great coach, who knew that he had a ton of talented girls. and he gave everything he had (along with a great assistant coach) to make these girls even better, and to mesh them into…

  • i recently received a few of the new collections from adornit, and got a chance to play with them. they are doing an online product release, so check out the adornit blog for more inspiration. here is what i created with the family heritage collection. love the colors of these papers. i knew i wanted to us our recent family…
