Great time with the girls!

Thursday, Jan 21, I had a night of laughs with the girls at Hostess Club. We made the scrap technique I explained in the previous post. Everyone’s looked great. It is incredible to see how creative we all are in our own way. I just love it. I am looking forward to creating something new for next month. Have so many ideas floating around in my mind that I just don’t know what to do first. Ever have those times? lol Just start at the top, I guess. Like the new Spring Idea book from CTMH. OMGosh, it is fabulous. The layouts and cards are just lovely. So, my daughter says to just start at the front of the book and work our way back. Good advice. Let’s doooo it!!!

Oh, scrap!

Finally, I dug out some paper and got some pictures put down on a page. Well, actually it is a page protector that has six pockets. I cut two 12x12 sheets of card stock into thirds. I then folded each 4x12 piece in half. I put pics on each side of the fold. It is a great way to scrap a lot of pictures all at one time. We all have events where we have 20 – 30 pictures taken. When this technique is used, you can scrap 24 4x6 pictures. I love it. I have to post the pictures I took of my pages to show what exactly I am talking about. lol I am not very tech savvy so I have to recruit my daughter to help.

2010 Achievements

I have added a box titled 2010 Achievements. I must admist that I didn't come up with this idea. A gal named Nona Davenport has it on her blog and I just loved the idea. It is really more for me than you to see how productive I become in a year. You should try it too. Write down on your calendar, journal or even your mirror how many pages you complete this year. It will be interesting to see what we come up with. Good luck and happy scrapping.

Happy New Year!!!

How fast 2009 came and went and here we are looking at a new year. I am looking forward to this year. Not sure why, exactly. I just have this deep in my gut feeling that great changes are in store for me this year. I have many plans set out for myself.

We had a good night of celebrating. We went and saw fireworks which were fabulous. Especially, since they were at night in the dark. lol As all of us that live here in Alaska, our fireworks on the 4th of July are not in the dark. We then went and had a Blizzard. So yummy. Came home and warmed up. Jessica and I wore our 2010 glitter glasses. We were soooo styling. lol The kids blew their party horns at midnight. It was good. Had lots of fun. Lots of laughs. Lots of pictures.

So, on that note of picture taking. Let’s dig them out, pictures that is, and let’s start scrapping!!!

Happy New Year, my friend.
