Christmas 2002

Here is another trivia ?  Do you know what paper this is??  Cloud 9-you guessed it!!  I just had to use ribbon and then I went Stickle crazy--how amazing the l/0 looks after using the differ color Stickles.  Now I see I will have to have all the colors!!  Alexis was so little in this l/0-she is only 2 yrs old.  Oh, how time flies--she is 7 yrs old 

Christmas 2004

Do you recognize this paper??  It's Basic Grey Dasher line!! Yes, I hand cut again--I think I am addicted.  I used 4 differ papers from that line-yes, hand cut those too!!  Love IT!!

Almost the last day of the year

Hey bloggers, it's Tuesday night, Dec 30--OMG!!!!!!!!!!!!  Can you believe it??  I am wondering where the time went to and already starting thinking of what I have planned for next year.  Well, I am off to a good start.  I just changed my blog--by myself--thank you very much!!!  HA!!!  I even added the map and counter all by myself!!  Wendy, Monica and Connie--aren't you proud!!

Happy Scrappin'

Powder Pink Christmas 2003

It is Saturday evening and it is storming outside and I am thinking how relaxing the sound of raindrops are with my Barbara Streisand playing on my computer and I finished another l/o.   Oh, how great life is right now!!  I am on a mission to catch up on pics of Alexis with Santa and her dancing @ Acadiana Village the past 2 years.  

She was so cute all in pink with her pink puffy muffler in these pics-she was only 2 yrs old.  I used some old Scenic Route paper, Hambly rub ons, Fancy Pants chipboard, Prima bling and journaling card.  

Alexis's first touch of snow

good evening scrappers!!Monday has come and gone and with all the things it did today-- I am really in a fabulous mood to stay up late again (till 1:30 every night since Friday).  My mom, Alexis (the only neice) and myself.  We continued our cookie baking tradition at my house.  I lit the fireplace to make it warm and toasty while we were like elves in the Fournet bakery. Alexis even was able to use her x-mas cookie cuter to make just enough for all the guests coming to my house on Christmas day.  

Here is another l/o I completed today--- oh, a l/0 in one day must be a new record!  I only had 3 pics which were NOT taken by me so this is what I had to work with!!  My sister new that she had to have pics taken-she now knows the importance of Nanny taking pics of any event!!  I used a new way to work with riboon, and got to love those basic gray rub ons.  I put them on my title ghost letters, Prima flowers and Techinque Tuesday chipboard.  I inked some with Versamagic Coffee bean and LAST but not least ----bling and the Robin's Nest pebbles for the center of the flowers.  Did you notice that  I HANDCUT another scroll from the Bohemian line from MME and used Prima bling to pizzazzzzzzz it some more.  Hope you like it!

Alex's First Hair Cut

Well, I have finally completed this l/0.  Yes, look very carefully, I HAND CUT (no exacto knife) the scrolls!!!  This was Bizous paper and I have been dying to use it so here it is.  I do love hand cutting--did you know that???  I used some old flower brads, flowers, ribbon and Robin's Nest pebbles for the inside of the flowers and added dimension on the polka dot ribbon.  Do you recognize the puzzle pieces?   I told Connie that this was going to be my first l/0 with "white space"  HA!!!! DIDN'T HAPPEN, oh well, I guess I will have to do it on another l/o.   Treasured Memories received some of the Tim Holtz tools that I have been waiting forever for--yes, I bought all 3 and LOVE, LOVE, LOVE them.  thanks, janet!!

I have been on an organizing extravaganza--Monica, you will be so proud but I think I am out of control!!  I have another day off tomorrow so after my mom, Alexis and I finish baking syrup cookies--yum, yum, I will begin another l/o unless I found something else to organize!  I will take more pics of my room soon --since I have already done more stuff.

Have a fabulous week and may every scrapper have a great holiday and take many pics.  

I also want to send out a special thank you to all of you who have taken my classes this year.  I really love teaching and really appreciate you taking my classes.  I hope to bring you some really cool stuff in the new year!
