New Blog

So my whores finally made a blog, it's called We Scrap Better. It's a place for us to check each other's work out and of course to meet new people because blogging is where it is right now lol. The first inspiration is to do a lift that was based on ANTM advertisement I believe. Here's my take on the lift. Everyone don't forget to check out our blog and please feel free to participate. I really like how this LO turned out too. It's just perfect (plus I'm a little narcissistic cause I just LOVE my picture).



I scanned the LO, Kelly are you proud of me now LOL. It's slightly miscolored when I added them but I'll work on that for the next time for now this will have to do since it's almost midnight and I'm tired as hell.

Stack Galore

Here are a couple LO's I worked on tonight. Very simple but I like them regardless lol. I'm trying to get rid of some stack paper. Well honestly I'm trying to get rid of all stack paper so I need to abuse and use all the paper I have before I can buy anything. Fun, I know but hey it's got to be done otherwise how am I going to save money and get rid of product that I've had sitting on those shelves for years probably and most definitely months! Thanks for checking out my stuff. I'm freezing, it's late and I'm totally ready to go to bed.

Organization part II

Well it's going good. I'm getting there I should be done by this weekend. Only thing I can't finish is transferring all the Lo's to d-ring binders because well I just didn't buy enough. I might need about 7 more LOL. I originally only bought 4. Next time I have a little bit of extra cash I could definitely get that done. Crosses fingers again. But I did get a lot done. I redid all my ribbon into containers by color. I separated a LOT of brads into baby jars by colors (I still have about two other organizer boxes of brads to get organized). And odds and ends here but it's looking good. I even put a picture frame up of my whores that I love. man I had so much fun scrapping today. You never realize how much that time alone when your significant other is out of the house and working is so necessary for you. because when he's here I just can't seem to get anything done because he's always in the way but when he's not around I get sooo much done and my daughter gets to sleep at a decent time instead of whenever because he's too busy playing with her. I think that's the longest run on sentence I've ever made hahaa. Anywho grammar police please stay away lol. Hope everyone had a great Easter, I know Isabella had a great time opening all her Easter baskets and hunting for eggs. Here's a couple pictures of her. She's too adorable sometimes.

This is Isabella at the Van Winkle House with Mr. Bunny. She was only semi scared lol.

This is her in her Easter dress, I had to put a shirt under it because let's face it .. it's only pretend Spring because it's still pretty cold outside lol.


Some of her many baskets. I wish I had that many when I was her age. I usually only got one but not her, she gets one from everyone.


Hunting for eggs around the living room. Everyone was throwing eggs in her basket to get the her with the flow. But could you believe even with everyone helping her she still didn't get the most eggs. She even had the biggest basket to pick eggs in, oh well there's always next year!

LO just for FUN

Just because I wanted to work these colors to begin with, here's the first LO I did tonight and had fun with it. I didn't use anyone for inspiration just kind of went with the flow and was very happy with the outcome.

Scrapdragons

The new challenge at Scrapdragons is to get inspiration from a CD cover. I don't usually buy cd's I usually just listen to whatever I can find on the radio (I love music though cause the radio is always on lol) so it was hard to find the perfect cover. Then I saw this R Kelly cover, and I love ALL his albums. I think I could remember what I was doing and where I was in almost all of his songs. Here's my take on the album cover and below is the album cover itself. As you can tell very very simple but fun none the less.


Scrapping the Music

Another great challenge with great lyrics. Scrappin the Music's challenge this week is "The Story" by Brandie Carlile. Great lyrics .. I chose the line I was made for you. Thought this was a great line because Kirk is always telling me how if it wasn't for me he wouldn't be where he is now, so I was made for him to help better himself. Does that make sense lol. Anyways here's my LO.
