here’s the last layout i did with that little freebie kit. when i first got the kit, i loved the “zany” sticker … and the smiley face patch (even if does remind me of walmart … which i can’t stand). that was actually the reason i kept the kit out … i wanted to use…

wow, 2 posts in one day. but i couldn’t resist … had to share this layout. the card i posted earlier today was made with the scraps from this layout. how perfect is this … a layout about how i use “LOL” way too much! i knew when carla sent me this stamp that i…

last night i finally had some time to scrap. and i’ll be honest … i had a really hard time getting anything started. i did a slew of assignments in the month of june … a ton. and i find that after doing assigned stuff .. i sometimes have a hard time going back to…

so yesterday, i was feeling so organized and on top of things. i knew since today was tuesday … that it would all fall apart. tuesdays are my craziest days … and always the days that drain me the most. i had 7 kids here today … all day. this is really the first day…

i've been waiting to see when this fun new making memories collection would hit target stores. and a friend told me yesterday that she saw it at our store here in town … and i've seen some other people talking about it. this new collection is called "hul.la.ba.loo" … and it's the cutest stuff. i…

i know i’ve been a terrible blogger this past week … or two. but i have reasons. the oddly, condensed version for your reading pleasure. super, crazy busy with assignments and deadlines … it’s all great stuff … just busy and inconviently, everything i have done scrapping-related lately has gone to heck … seriously my creative…
