Can I Kiss You Layout

Wednesday, November 30, 2011
Today, I made a quick scrapbook layout based on  November Sketch over at Jillibean Soup Blog.
Here's the sketch created by Julie Bonner {always LOVE her sketches},


and here's my layout,


On this layout, I used the "Homemade 6 Bean Soup" collection. Love this collection so much! I also added some burlap tags on top. I had a hard time choosing pictures for this sketch, but finally decided to go with these cute photos of my kids when they're little.

If you're wondering about the messiness on the right side...Yup I did that in purpose.
To me, those paints makes the layout more playful.

I'm also entering this layout for Simon Says Stamp "Anything Goes" Challenge.

Anyhoo, thank you so much for stopping by.
I wish you all a wonderful and blessed December..{still can't believe 
today is the last day of November}.
It's gonna be a busy month...so I hope you still find some times
to scrap and have fun.

I'll see you again real soon.

Portable Movie Layout

Monday, November 21, 2011
Ok...I'm not really sure if there's even such thing called 'Portable Movie', but I decided to title my newest scrapbook layout with that. 

So...here's the story {happened a few years ago},
My hubby and I were watching a movie on TV, then my {little} two kids wanted to watch their movie. Since we only have one TV, they had to use a portable DVD and watch the show. They sat on the lazy chair together and just enjoyed the film. They both looked so cute.

Anyhow...this my layout about the story.


There are times when I do not know what to title my scrapbook page...but when I come up with something
I always LOVE it!

Thank you so much for stopping by. I hope you a wonderful week.

Reading Together Layout

Thursday, November 17, 2011
Ok...so I've been scrapping a lot lately...:D Which is good right? LOL
There are some challenges that I'd love to play along and most of them are due by Sunday, November 20th...{yea..I'm a little procrastinator}.

Anyway, for today layout is based on a challenge over at My Creative Sketches Blog.
So here's my take,


I LOVE the way this page turned out! This is also the first time I used a black cardstock as a base. 

Well...this is all for today, a short post, and hope you like my scrapbook layout!
Bye-Bye.

Showin Off Layout

Wednesday, November 16, 2011
Yesterday, my kids and I had a crafty time together. They painted their toy cars {oh yeah...my baby girl plays cars too :D} and I made a scrapbook layout. The house was a mess and the wood floor turned brown and black. Despite all those messiness we all had so FUN playing.

I let my kids play with watercolor paints...because I, myself, was playing with them as well.
I'm a simple scrapper but occasionally I love dirty hands and messy page...
Anyway...let me show my creation....


I used my new stencil that I bought from Michaels. It's by folk art, and I love the design. They have many different choices.

This layout will be entered for a challenge over at Scrapbook Circle Blog. It's a Sketch Challenge.

I regretted that I didn't take picture of my kids playing. They were so funny and had paint all over their face. It was almost time for my hubby to get home from work...so I decided just to clean up the house and gave the kids a bath.

Well...I'm pretty sure I will do this again with the kids. Winter days like these...it's so perfect to bond with the kids and get crafty.

Thank you so much for stopping by.
See you again soon. Stay warm too!

The Numbers Layout

Monday, November 14, 2011
Hi and Happy Monday Scrappers,

I did a little organizing in my scraproom a few days ago and found a layout kit that I put together. I did this a while ago and not sure why I didn't finish the project.
Anyway...I finally finished it and wanted to share. So, here it is...


These pictures were taken almost  5 years ago when Dustin was born.
I titled this "The Numbers" because it's all represent special digits about him, like ~ the time, the weight and the day he was born.

I used the older kit collection from Close To My Heart called You Rock. If you noticed the sticker on the bottom ~ The Baby Fact ~ I bought that since I was still pregnant with him.

I'm just happy that I finally did the layout :D
His fifth birthday is coming up in a few month...and I think I need to catching up with him or I will never finish his scrapbook album.

Well...I guess I will see you all soon.
Have a great week.

Fall Smash

Tuesday, November 1, 2011
Happy Tuesday dear scrappers....
It's the first day of November and I'm so excited :D A lot of things are going on in our family every November. Birthday, and another birthday, and more birthdays, then anniversary.
Oohh and lets not forget the day light saving time, and Veteran day, and Thanksgiving and last but not least Black Friday. OOpps we also will do some more yard cleaning {my kids love playing with the falling leaves} and I'm gonna do some early {scrappy} Christmas shopping {for Christmas Swap with my dear scrappy friend}.

So many things to do.....
So I decided to record the memories in this....


I bought this Smash book back in March when it's just released. It's so popular and sound {and look} FUN...I told myself that I have to have one.

I was planning to use it as a Summer Mini Book...but then when I found out I had to make my own Summer Mini Book for a DT project, I put this book away. I finally took it out and decorate the cover.
I can't wait to just play with this book.

Well...I wish you all a wonderful November days.
I know it's gonna be busy days for some of you and I hope you record those memories.
Thanks for stopping by.
