[Lots of rambling...]

Soo I’ve been slacking quite a bit on my blog lol. I have so much stuff to post. I’m going to try and post tonight. I have my video of the TWS for November. I have tons of pics but not sure if I’m going to post all lol takes to long. But I’m going to do the Christmas ones for sure. Just have to figure out which ones to post because I always take too many =D I might do a video of all my scrapping goodies I got for Christmas!! I got a lot and was super excited about all of it :)


My hubby & I have also become addicted to the show Color Splash!!! We love that show. David is so creative and comes up with combos that you would never consider but look amazing. Its making us really want to redo some rooms in our house. The ideas are flowing :)

Hmm…I thought there was something else but I cant remember now so that’s all for now lol…

[Lifes a Scrap BeachChallenge 6]

This one was a challenge to scrapbook about our pets etc. I loved how this one tunred out! This is 1 of our 3 dogs Abby. Shes just too darn cute!


[Lifes a Scrap Beach Challenge 4]

This one was to not use your paper trimmer. I used my cricut for all my shapes. This was wasnt as challenging as I thought it would be!


[Lifes a Scrap Beach Challenge 3]

This challenge was called "Scraplifters will be prosecuted". This one was fun for me also! I got this inspiration for this layout from http://thescrapbeach.ning.com/photo/fun-times?context=latest . These pictures make this layout look like crap lol but it does look better in person. I also made my own glimmer mist but the camera didnt pick it up.

[Lifes a Scrap Beach November Crop Challenge 1]


Here is my layout for challenge 1. It was to use the pagemap. I loved using a sketch. I think I'm going to start using them more often! I really liked the way this layouts turned out. I used basic grey paper, tim holtz stamp (butterflies) and my cricut (don juan cart). I made my title with chipboard with my expression and it was the first time cutting chipboard and it turned out great!! I'm addicted to cutting chipboard now lol.
