2nd Grade - 9/16

It's Monday again!!! School started a month ago and there's already so much going on. The girls are loving it this year and have all their friends still there. As a scrapper, I always take pics of the girls on their first days of school. I love seeing their excited/nervous faces.

Over at the Scrapping Turtle, I am doing today's Friday Inspiration. I have always loved Winnie the Pooh. There is always a lesson behind the stories along with wonderful quotes from him. This one definitely caught my eye.

I also used this week's sketch over at Let's Get Sketchy for my page as well. They definitely help get the inspiration going along with having something to work with.

Hope Anchors the Soul - 9/2

It's my 1 year anniversary over at Let's Get Sketchy!!! I have been apart of an awesome Design Team and love being able to create amazing projects for everyone to see!

Today is Labor Day! So today I am spending the day scrapping away. Today is also Monday which means a new sketch at Let's Get Sketchy! This week's sketch was a tricky one. It took some time to wrap my head around, but the DT came up with some great inspiration.

Buried - 8/20

Now that my girls are back in school... I finally get my morning scrappy time back!!! So today I played along with Sketch N Scrap. I really liked this sketch. It was a little challenging for me cause there were so many cute papers I wanted to use. I finally settled on some from my Paper Bakery Kits. I absolutely their kits and find that I use them so much more than other kits I have bought.

It's Monday again!!! There's only 2 weeks left in the month to join in the fun over at Let's Get Sketchy!!! Well summer is officially over down here. The girls started school today! I'm already missing it. I think a trip to the beach is in order for the weekend. So here is a fun beach page to help keep that summer feeling going.

Chocolate - 8/15

It's the middle of the month! Time for a new challenge over at About a Girl!!! You still have all month long to play along with both challenges. The 2nd challenge this month, was a tricky one for me. WHITE SPACE!!!!!!! "White" space doesn't mean a white section on your page. It's actually a blank area on your page. I have a hard time with this. I don't think I did very good, but I love this page. Just ignore the fact that I used my long title to hide some of my "white" space.

I also used my page to play along with this week's sketch at Let's Get Sketchy! Sketches definitely help get your motivation going. Plus it wasn't my week to post for the DT so I decided to have fun with it. There is also a new challenge site called 1 2 3 Get Scrappy! So I played with their first challenge as well. I used red, free, and thickers. It's a tic tac toe challenge. It was fun actually combining challenges. I rarely do it cause it can get confusing.

Come join in the fun!!!

The Battleship - 8/5

It's now August and the first Monday! Which means a new sketch is up over at Let's Get Sketchy!!!! There are 4 great sketches this month so be sure to play along all month long!!!
