A Brother Love

Hello all,

I just finished another scrapbook layout, and this time I used the October Template from Simple Scrapper.

So, without further ado, here's my layout...

Love the clean look of this page and those pictures are priceless.

That's all for today. Thanks for stopping by.

Friends At First Sight Layout

Bbbrrr it's really cold here in Lincoln, Nebraska. The weather is in the upper forties and the wind makes it even colder. I guess Winter is coming real soon.

Well, I have a quick scrapbook layout that I'd like to share with you.

This layout is part of my DT assignment for The {Paper} Trail Makers Challenge Blog, and the {second} challenge for this month is to use cardboard on the project.

I also used a sketch from Bo Bunny from the current Layout Challenge.

Here's the sketch

and here's my layout,

I used the Garden Girl collection on this project. The whole collection is just so PRETTY {LOVE it!}.

The title, "Friends at First Sight", actually came from one of the stickers {from the collection}.

Hubby and I are going to celebrate 5 years wedding anniversary in a few week. Every day I'm just so thankful that God brought him to my life. We knew each other 18 years ago...and he's truly my friend.

Anyway...I was going to give this layout as an anniversary present...but he already saw it. Now, I need another idea what to give him. {LOL} Any suggestion?

Well...until then scrappers.

Take care and stay warm,

Sunflower Tag ~ Robin Nest DT Post

Pretty Paper Party with Shimelle

I got a really nice surprise yesterday morning when I checked my email.

Shimelle Laine sent me an email saying that I'm now registered to her new class called Pretty Paper Party.

I was so surprised and excited. Then I tried to figure it out how in the world that happened...LOL.

Finally, I found out that I won a giveaway {the prize of course FREE Tuition to Shimelle's Class} over at Jen Gallacher's blog.

Anyway, this is a four-week party with lots of guests. And as you can guess this party is all about Pretty Papers. Who does not love paper right?

Anyway...to start off the party, Shimelle asked us to share our paper collection.

And here is mine,

When I started scrapbooking about 6 years ago..I basically bought any beautiful patterned papers out there. I had quite a lot of papers or lets just say I hoarded them.

Then a year ago my perspective on scrapbooking changed and now I only buy papers on the same collection {example: currently my fave line is Sidewalks from October Afternoon and I have to have every single design} hence I'm a Collection Packer.

I decided to give my old patterned papers away ~ actually donated to my son's school.

And what's left? only in that blue crate.

Here's my most recent paper hauls..and LOVE every single of them.

They're Amy Tangerine Line, OA Sidewalks Collection and Jillibean Soup Homemade 6 Soup.

Well....that's all from me today.

If you decide to join the fun and attend the party, please say HI to me.

So long and have a great rest of the week.

Choo-Choo Layout

I recently joined My Scrap and More Forum. What a fun place to hang out, and currently they're hosting an event called Scrap It to Win It Sketch-a-thon, a month long occasion with lots of inspirations and prizes to grab.

Anyway, here's one of my layouts for one of the challenges.

The layout is all about Dustin and his toy trains. I used patterned papers from Echo Park Little Boy collection.

Well, I hope you can join the fun.

See you all soon.

With Gratitude Card

Hi everyone....

It's been awhile....:D and hope you all are doing well.

I have a card that I'd like to share with you.

The stamp is from My Favorite Things Pure Innocence Collection and I used the weekly sketch from My Favorite Things Blog.

So, here it is...

All I can say...I'm in love with MFT P.I stamps. They're just adorable.

Well...that's all from me today.

Have a great week.

A Friendship Card and Tag

Anyway...here's  my creation,

You can find and order this new collection from The Paper Trail Online Store. And also the first challenge of the month is up on the BLOG..go check it out!
