My mind as a scrapbooker......

By now my family has come to expect me always thinking about scrapbooking...From saving strange things that could be used for scrapbooking to staging a photo shot for some paper I have at home....I cant help it...I am a "scrapbooker"...On Saturday a store down in Hershey was having a yardsale so I told the hubby I wanted to go..I found some pretty good deals and of course while there I had to pick up some paper. As soon as I saw the Little Red Riding hood paper...A light bulb went off in my brain...KING our Husky...So many times when we take him out every ones always comments on his "eyes" and when kids see him they think he is a wolf...so you have to see how my brain worked....Big eyes...wolf looking....well anyway I did this layout for Sketchy Thursdays

The SUN is out and....

Yes the sun is out and the weatherman says It's going to be a really nice day.....
After work My plans are to take King our big husky boy to get a bath...hopefully he will loose some of his winter fur and make him a bit cooler..
On to scrapbooking this morning I finished up on a layout my plan for this one is I have a few 12x12 wooden frames I want to hang in the livingroom and change them up like the seasons. I just love the face on Gabe he is just too cute and he loves getting his picture made too. My layout is based on a sketch that is up this week over at Sketch Support Sketch #9..

Ribbon Twine and a little bit artsy.....

Do you ever stand back and look at your project when your finished and say to yourself..."Self...I like this...good job"....I do sometimes...the dogs just look at me like who are you talking to???? Any way...I am very happy the way my layout turned out... and not just because of the cute little baby in the picture but for a few reasons... First I used some really older Basic Grey paper that I had in my stash ....that's always a good thing..I like it when I do something kind of "artsy" to me this is a bit artsy. I almost forgot to mention go check out Frosted Design today it's Friday a new challenge is up...Have a great day and keep on scrapin....

Cute as a button

Little Brookie has a bib that says..."They have not made a button that is cute as me"
That made me think of doing a layout with buttons and being cute...So Cute as a button is this layout.I did this layout for this weeks sketch over at Sketchy Thursdays. This is Brooke on Easter morning waiting to start her First Easter. Here little dress was so cute Her Mommy was very happy that the day was kind of warm so she did not have to cover that pretty little dress up with a heavy coat.
