Once upon a time

Yeay.... I finally used my cricut again.... I used it for the title and branches..

I love all of the pictures I took while we were down by this little river in France..

This one is of the youngest, playing with his branch ( he fell in the water two seconds after this shot was taken..)

I used 5 different pages of the Boxer line from Basic Grey (which I had laying around forever!!)




Thanks for stopping by...

More christmas in october..

I was looking around for some fun X-mas projects when I came across this beautiful banner... I just couldn't imagine my christmas without it!!

So with full credit to the spilling the beenz blog

Here's my (very look-a-like) version!









There's inking (lots of it), stamping, embossing, hand stitching...and loads of time looking for images on the net!

Thanks for looking!

I can't seem to put my baby away....

Ok...I'm finding it hard to put the DDA away 'till december 1st... So I'm still adding here and there...
I want to be able to just grap my pics..write my jourmaling and be done with it when december comes..

So here's the inside of my outer page..



Thanks for all the sweet comments I've received from here and the forums! It's much appreciated!

just for fun..

I'm working on my DDA and wanted to share my desk (ahum) with you...

Eventhough it looks like a tornado hit my room..I still know where everything is and it seems to help me scrap better... Whenever I clean up ( usualy after I finish a lay out or project)I always have a problem starting up again...untill my room looks like the huge mess which it is now!



Almost finished with my basic pages for the DDA 1 through 31 st...

Thanks for looking..

Fa la la la la...

I think that any season is the season to get Jolly....

I'm all x-massed up already... I decided that this year I wanted to make a DDA (december daily album) I came across a few of them last year, but it was too late to get started...

So this year I'm early! It's so much fun too... I will try to post the Ali Edwards link, because it's totaly her idea..not mine at all... (the labour is though!)







My supplies (although the pile got bigger as I'm getting along!) en first inside page...
