Project Life

I am so excited to start Project Life by Becky Higgens. I am excited to use it to document daily life in our family. I am pretty good at keeping up with the boys scrapbook pages, but that mainly features events or things they are involved in and not day to day stuff.

Let me know if anyone else is involved in Project Life--I'd love to hear your thoughts!

Here is Becky's website: http://www.beckyhiggins.com

Have a great day everyone!

Scrap Weekend

Hi Everyone--

This past weekend I was at an awesome scrapbook retreat!  It was so relaxing and I got so many scrapbook pages done that I am caught up with my three boys albums.  Each of my boys has an album and I am often finding myself scrapping the same event three different times!  LOL!  I do not spend hours and hours on one scrapbook page because it is more important to me to keep caught up, but I admire the people who do!

I took a break this weekend to do a little something different and I wanted to try out my new Cricut Cartridge--Create a Critter.  I held off getting this cartridge for so long because I am not really a cutsie person and so many of the critters have smiley faces.  However, I have really loved using my gypsy with the cartridge because I black out the faces and use the Peachy Keen Stamps and the My Pink Stamper stamps!  It is so easy to make these in bulk--I made several of each card!


Both of these images were cut at 3.5 inches--I love the crab one--I am going to make one that says "Got Crabs?"  ha ha ha!!

Have a great day!  Thanks for viewing!
