What a pretty picture!

I forgot one from this weekend... so here it is! :)

This is a picture that my lovely daughter was so proud to show me... and I'm so very proud of her! She's a fun kid. :)

(I have edited and resized my photos at least a dozen times... and they aren't working for me. Maybe its just my browser? I think if you are having troubles viewing you can click on the picture to see it better... I hope that works, sorry!)





And I'm going to link up here -- check out Scrappy Gifts! There are some really neat ideas:

More from the page kit swap and other randomness --

Here are a few other layouts I completed from the page kit swap I was in for February. I'm so behind on updating and I still have a couple of page kits left! I also have not TOUCHED my kits from March and its well over half gone... someone kick me in the rear, please! :)

From Basic Grey Sugar Rush line (my kit for a girl group):




From Basic Grey Origins line (my kit for 'Anything Goes'):



From any 'anything goes' kit - I did a LOT of stitching on this page, it was fun!




And here's a random layout from a while back I never posted...




A card I made for a swap:


And there we go! I think I'm all caught up now. :)

From the Scrap and Chat Weekend. :)

Here are the other layouts I got done this weekend during an online 'Scrap and Chat'... like a mini crop thing. :)

An 'OOPS' challenge - to incorporate pictures of little ones with boo-boos and things... this was when my niece had a broken ankle and they had rented a wheelchair for their vacation (would be walking a lot) and they brought home my daughter one night and I saw them walking down the street to come home and I had to snap a picture of her on her lap -- so funny! :)





Banner Challenge (products on this page are mostly from the Dear Lizzie American Crafts line):





And then the last one is a mosaic picture challenge... I scrapped a picture of some gorgeous bright pink flowers my husband surprised me with one day 'just because'. He's so sweet to me. :)

'Scraplift' from CK

I got a few layouts done this weekend for some challenges! :)

I scraplifted this idea from the newest Creating Keepsakes magazine... page 103 (a Jennifer McGuire layout):




Its a picture of my little guy passed out in his stroller after a long day at the zoo on his first birthday. (We had the party on a different day - his birthday was on a Monday... so we decided a trip to the zoo was in order!)

Catching up a bit!

There are a couple layouts I've done recently and haven't posted, so I need to catch up!
This is with a page kit from a swap -- I tried some glimmer mist and stickles on this layout to distress some of the patterned paper and flowers. It was fun!





And this one was a layout that I was doing for a fast scrap and I was a complete dork and didn't read the rules clearly enough. The fast scrap was for a CARD, not for a layout! No matter, I got a layout done in less than an hour and I think it turned out pretty good! See -- this is proof I can scrap faster. :)
