Well, I have been a little busy . . . scrapping

Ok - brace yourself - this may take a while.  A few days ago I posted this to instagram

And now they look like this:

 

I made this LO, well, let's just say a really long time ago at LoneStar Scrapbook Store (which is out of business) when Elizabeth Kartchner came to teach a class (she was pregnant with Lola which is now like 2 yrs old!)  Anyway, it was a great LO and I have been waiting to find the perfect picture for it - Viola! 

A close up - about her getting a new big girl bike - Barbie no less!

Based on a starting point from Shmielle's Hitchhiker Class at Two Peas

The finished LO - this has also been sitting for a while

 

Another from a sketch by - oh devil - I can't remember - will keep looking and update when I find it.   

The title is for when I add another picture - but I can't make the scanner work to save my life this week.  Are you ready for this? 

Yes, that's me!  Scary isn't it? 

Well, goodness, that's a lot of photos.  I had better get to bed.  Elsie is sick and I have to figure out a plan for tomorrow.  She has a stomach bug - FUN!

Is the suspense killing you?

I figured not, but I laughed when I realized it has been a while sine I posted.  Whew - March and April as a fundraiser - not a quiet time.  Anyway - finally sat down and finished this one.  I used My Mind's Eye Lost and Found (brown checked), Fancy Pants Numbers (red b-side), Jillibean Soup (owls), Crate Paper (mini chevron), Sassafrass (border sticker), The Crafters Workshop Mini Chicken Wire stencil with Tattered Angels Glimmer Mist in Graphite and some bakers twine.  All of this is from various Cocoa Daisy Kits - even the snowflakes.  Well, that sat way too long on the desk.  I have been "Project Life-ing" my tail off and an very proud to say, I only have three weeks to go AND I ordered pictures yesterday.  Ha!  More in a bit.

Not coming together - any ideas?

What am I am going to do with this one? 

It needs something . . . where to put the title?  Where to put the journaling???

Going to bed.

Lazy Scrapbooking . . .

I say lazy cause these last few days I have just been using sketches and for right now that is where I am.  Some days there is just not enough energy at night to come up with someting new.  And you know what?  I am beyond happy with how these have come out so whoi cares.  I am not here to win a contest, just to get our memories down and have fun in the process.  So here you go.  The latest and whence they came - doing my best to give credit where credit is due:

From Challenge #1 on Shimelle dot com - orginal work from Jamie Warren

From the NSD Make and Take on the Two Peas blog - by Shimelle - she made eight pages with one kit - very impressive! 



More from inspiration from Shimelle on the Glitter Girl Challenge at Two Peas.  Though I must admit to falling in love with this layout by a fellow scrapper.  Isnt her page amazing?

So that's it for now - I am working on something else and it is vexing me.  Posting a pick of that shortly.
