Hi everyone!!! WOW it's been awhile since I've been on here and I want to apologize for that. A couple of months ago I had to step down from the Design Teams that I was on, I just have too many things going on and something had to give... My husband and I bought some property down at the Gulf (2 1/2 hours away) and we have been a little busy with the closing and we are now drawing house plans... It's just going to be a weekend place to hang out and go fishing.. but we are very excited about it.. And I still have my cows and I take care of all of the chores during the week.... mowing, feeding and hauling a little hay..</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
But don't write me off just yet!!!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I will be scrapping every chance I get.... just not as much as I did.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Anyway, on to my Christmas Card I created today. I'm thinking this will be the design I use for this years cards... I like it because it isn't the "traditional" Christmas colors... Tell me what you think...</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Hello everyone.. I hope you are doing well this Monday morning.. Today we have a new challenge over at <a href="http://stuckonusketches.blogspot.com/">Stuck On U Sketches</a>.. We are now doing <b>Project Life layouts</b> every 2 weeks and we would love for you to play along... The twist is we will ask you to add something special to your layout..</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So our current challenge for you is to add</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #073763; font-size: x-large;"><b>Button(s)</b></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><i><b>to your Project Life Layout!</b></i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"><i><br /></i></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I know, I know, my layout is not the<i> "traditional"</i> Project Life layout because I didn't use a "kit". But that's okay you don't have to go out and buy any of the kits, but if you want to, by all means do so!!! I just have so much scrapbook supplies I refuse to buy any more.. So I am using what I already have. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Okay, so my husband really wanted me to do a scrapbook on our farm and I feel like the PL (Project Life) style will be perfect for this album.. So this is what I come up with and I really like the way it turned out..</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Hi everyone!!!! It's Friday and that means we have a new Die Cut challenge reveal over at <a href="http://stuckonusketches.blogspot.com/">Stuck On U Sketches</a>. This weeks theme was chosen by Co-Leader Leah and it is....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="color: #cc0000; font-size: x-large;">"MOM"</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><b><i>Use a die cut of</i></b></span><br />
<br />
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">the word MOM, MOMMY, or MOTHER </span></div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;">or a woman...silhouette of a woman, etc.</span></div>
<div>
(you get the picture)</div>
<div>
<span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
I thought long and hard about what I would create for this challenge.... I told myself at the beginning that even though you can make any kind of project you want for this challenge, I was going to continue making scrapbook layouts since I am so far behind..... So, with that said I remembered this photo that my daughter uploaded on her FB page when she was pregnant with little Blake last summer... Her friend (Stephanie) painted this cute little monkey holding a bar-bell (since she is a weight trainer) on her tummy and it turned out sooooo cute... and then I remembered the song <i>"Judy in Disguise" by John Fred & His Playboy Band</i> and well, you can see the results... I'm really happy with it. This will be added to little GS Blake's Album....</div>

Hi everyone!!! I hope all is well.... I've been away on a mini vacation with my husband... He had a seminar in Houston and asked me if I wanted to tag along with him... I jumped at the opportunity and so glad I did... There was a mall just across the street and we had our own sky walk from the hotel to mall.... I loved it... and I got in a lot of walking!! They didn't have a scrapbook store, but hey, you can't have it all!!! </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
This week we have a great sketch over at <b><a href="http://stuckonusketches.blogspot.com/">Stuck On U Sketches</a></b> created by our Co-Leader.... actually it's a 2 pager.... </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Remember, on a 2 pager you can do the left side, right side, or both sides... The option is yours!!!!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I decided to do just the RIGHT SIDE... and I chose a photo of Granddaughter Savannah taken December, 2012.. It was at the Courthouse Square in downtown Lockhart, Texas... They were having a Christmas Bazaar and while she was there she had her face painted... It turned out great and she was so happy with the results.....</div>

And since it's Friday we have another fun <span style="color: #134f5c;"><b>die cut challenge</b></span> for you over at<a href="http://stuckonusketches.blogspot.com/"> <b>Stuck On U Sketches</b></a>!! Today's challenge is from Co-Leader Nanne and she's kinda made it easy for you by giving you a theme to work with for this challenge.....</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So for my layout I decided to go way back in my archived photos and picked a couple of cute photos of Granddaughter Savannah taken back on July 8, 2008... At that age she didn't want her swimming water dirty in any way... no dirt, leaves, sticks, pebbles or anything else in her wadding pool. It's pretty safe to say that a little dirt must have gotten in it and she was pretty upset!! The expression on her face is priceless... </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

For my layout I chose a photo of Grandson Colten and Granddaughter Savannah taken the end of last year... They are actually in one of those trains that are made out of 55 gallon drums and then pulled with a tractor... We didn't have the whole train so I cropped the photo and changed it to B&W...</div>

Yes, I know everyone is thinking Spring with all of the snow and cold weather.... But not me, I found some wonderful Fall papers at Archiver's and just had to use them... and I've also had this cute photo of GD Savannah for over 3 years now, sooooo I decided to go for it and do a Fall layout...... I'm pretty much like that.... you never know what I'm going to scrap next... but that's the way I like it... </div>
