3 girls

I'm in a "pick up whatever's on my desk and scrapbook it" kinda mood lately. 3 of those photos have been 5x7's of my husband's granddaughters. I may have already even scrapbooked these pics but who cares! LOL

To make the ruffle, I cut out my cardstock and put several stripes of heavy duty glue from my ATG along the edge. I then "ruffled" my ribbon by folding back and forth. I didn't want it to look perfect. I also made sure that the ends were folded towards the back when finished. I then stuck it to the page and used my sewing machine to zig zag around the edge. That sucker's never coming up! ;) Then, add letters!

I love this layout it looks more involved than it really was, and yes, I still have an owl fetish. Sue me!

Paper: Best creations
Ribbon: Hobby Lobby
Letters: K & company
Flower: Brenda Walton - K & Company
Sticker letters: Doodlebug
Cardstock: DCWV


All of these pages were super fast. I'm leaning right now towards less techniques and more "getting it done"

My family tree is full of nuts!
(because it's true)

My step-son Chris is a goofball, and I needed to share that with the world. LOL.

When I found this paper, I fell in love! I have a soft spot for squirrels. Especially cute funny ones.

Scrapbook page - Love on the Line

I've had this layout done for a while, but it was bugging me. It just wasn't "right". Finally a couple nights ago, it hit me, it needed a circle behind the label. Too bad it was already glued down!

It's kinda hard to keep love letters when they are text messages. One day I realized I could just take some photos to remember what a big softie I'm married to.

Scrapbook Page - Sky High

It's been a while since I shared any layouts! I've not been scrapping as much as I was a few weeks ago. I think it's that springtime itch!

Here is a layout I did about the weekend trip Gene and I took to KC. Actually, it's about Skies Restaurant over the Hyatt.

Scrapbook Page - SDC Details

A layout with 12 full photos! I wanted something simple and easy for all the detail shots I took. (my mother thinks I'm crazy for taking leaf pictures. Poo on her!)
