Folders.

I was so inspired by Marci Lambert's Christmas folder, that I needed my own! I got these file folders at Walmart for .97 cents each, added some paper, rub-ons, and Heidi Swapp tape and Ka-Chow! I loved it so much that I have already done two more! At Walmart I also picked up a box of 100 folders, so I might get a little carried away! But a great way to store loose papers. Hugs!

artist in training.

First I just had to share these photos that I took in Houston of Jason working on his latest masterpiece. I just love how serious he looks. Later I will post the finished canvas. I have lots of great photos to share from the holiday weekend, but I am still wiped out from the trip. So more posts (and projects) later..

Happy Thanksgiving!

Just a quick note to say Happy Belated Thanksgiving! We are still in Houston and will fly home late tomorrow. Got lots of great new photos that I am exctied to share (and scrap!) Take Care!

My Boys

I just got this photo back today, thought it was a cute one, so I wanted to share. It's just Jason and his Dad at the Heartland Farms Pumpkin Patch from this past October. Really busy today and tomorrow, Gotta Run..Take Care!

It's a good thing.

Just thought I'd share an older layout from my stash that is a lift from Ms. Whendeeb over at 2peas. The photos were taken by my Hubby in August 2006. Loved these shots of the two of us. It's a good thing.

One Week Finished

Just wanted to share the finished product of my envelope album. I added a binder clip to keep it folded up together. I love how it turned out and that we have another week documented from our lives. Click on the photos to see them larger and up close and you can see the whole album here at 2peas.

Know This?

So yesterday I started this new project just for giggles! "Know this about me?" is going to be a small album for random things about me. This is only the chipboard cover. I'm thinking I will bind the top left corner with a large jump ring, but not sure yet. I only have a couple pages done, but you can see them over at 2peas. And be sure to check back later to see more pages!

My Address Book

So this is my new address book. Do you love it? I did it yesterday afternoon. I just had to do my own after seeing my favorite Peanut, Karla The Great, do one. It was a quick project with stamps, paper scraps, a computer font, and rub-ons. I organized it by state for a quick reference. You can see the insert pages that I altered as well right here at 2peas.

Seashell Bottle

Okay so I have had some seashells sitting around in a Ziploc for a year and a half, so when I saw this bottle at Hobby Lobby for .99 cents, I just had to have it! I added a few rub-ons, ribbon, floss, and a tag with the date. Now I have a cute display of our seashells from Jason's first visit to the Gulf of Mexico. Sorry the photo is so blurry, been having trouble shooting still life lately. But you get the idea.

One Week Envelope Album

I had so much fun doing an album for the month of October that I wanted to have one for Novemver too. So last night I made this mini envelope album. I had these great vintage collector envelopes that I got from the Lewis Family. I used seven envelopes and titled the album 7 Days. I cut up some cardstock, one for each day of the week and Voilia! It is not complete yet because I need to document the week before I can do the cards. But you get the idea. You can see the cards through the envelopes and that is really neat! The album all folds up to reveal the title page. You can see it all here at 2peas.

All About Me Album

I just finished this All About Me album and wanted to share. This was a Creating Keepsake's kit and three dollars of the profits went to the fight against breast cancer. This was a very rewarding album to complete. You can check the rest of it out at 2peas. On to the next project!

New Stamps

Look what I got in the mail yesterday! A whole lot of stamps and a bunch of other paper goodies! I am lucky enough to have two sets of parents and they saw these and thought of me!They picked these up at an auction for a whopping five dollars. Most of these retail at more than ten dollars a piece! Thanks. Love you, Lewis!
