Harmonie and a GYSO sketch!

 I should be thinking SPRING but had to scrap this cute picture of Hannah and her doll "Taryn". Hannah got her Mapelea Doll (Canadian Girl) for her b-day in August and she has not put her down since. I love the fact that she adores this doll...keeps her away from TV and video games!

I used Harmonie pp and brads, and CTMH chipboard snowflakes for this layout.

Have a happy EASTER!

Vernon BC

Oh this layout sure made me think of summer! We had so much fun on out last summer vaction. We went to Vernon BC and loved it there! It was so nice an hot, we spend alot of time in the campground swimming pool!
I used a sketch from GYSO! All papers and accessories are CTMH. I created the "spray" on the white cardstock with CTMH's new spray pen and reinker.

Busy Busy!!!

This week has been CRAZY!!! We put in an offer on a house on Friday, and it was accepted! YAY! So then, we had to get our house decluttered and ready to list!!! OMG! 15 years in this house...we have ALOT of stuff!!! We still have a few things to do, so not much time to scrapbook.   :-(
I do intend on playing along at GYSO this week....here is a sketch to inspire you... MAYBE I'll have time to play tomorrow! In the mean time, sweet dreams!

GYSO and LUCKY!

Here is my layout for this weeks sketch from GYSO! I used my new favorite paper from Close To My Heart : LUCKY

The "cards" surrounding the photo of Theo are stamped with the Enjoy Life stamp set also from Close To My Heart!!!!

Miracle Layout

I used the Close To My Heart Miracle workshop kit for this layout, I didn't care for the layout in the workshop guide, so I used one from Jeanette Lynton's Magic book.

And I'm still loving that Pennant Alphabet stamp set!!!!

Just read on the Scrapbookers Paradise blog that they have several new lines from Kaiser Craft...one is CLASS OF '87.....say what???? LOL that's the year I graduated HIGH SCHOOL! Ya know, I gotta have that line!!!

Scrapbookers Paradise Challenge

Yes, I know, I really should get to bed so that I can function at work tomorrow, but my mind is too busy planning my FUN for the weekend!! Here is a color challenge from SCRAPBOOKERS PARADISE!!!

I LOVE Scrapbookers Paradise and sure wish I lived close to one of their stores! My sister is so lucky to live a short 5 minutes away from the Red Deer store.....for me it's *gasp* 4 hours!!!! maybe a good thing for my pocket book LOL!

See you tomorrow!

Just adding that it might be fun to combine the color challenge above, the GYSO sketch and the CTMH SOTM.....would be a nice Easter Layout...just sayin.....

ok now GOODNIGHT! :)
