Bad blogger....

Sorry I have not been updating very often. We will be moving in less than two weeks and things have just been insanely busy. After we move and get settled, I will be back into my routine and will have time to scrap again! In the meantime, here's a layout I created a couple of weeks ago for Rachel's sketch challenge during the Scrap With Us at Feeling Scrappy. Hope you like it! (Feels like it's been months or more since I have scrapped!!!)

New Challenges and a layout to share...

We have some great new challenges posted today on the Feeling Scrappy message board. I posted a new Anything Goes challenge and a card challenge(brand new card sketch!). There's also a sketch challenge, word challenge, photo challenge, ad challenge and more!! I hope you'll join us over there this month. Lots of friendly faces and inspiration.

I looked back and I didn't see this layout posted so I will share it now. It's one I finished last month for my Anything Goes challenge. Hope you like it!

Layout-Kitchen Keepsakes

I love my Kitchen Keepsakes album! It is filling up with family recipes and other fun things about our kitchen and traditions. We have a monthly KK challenge on Feeling Scrappy hosted by Jayne each month. This month is about casseroles. This is a recipe from Jeremy's grandma that we really love. The papers, rubons and letters are from the store at Paper Popsicles.

Bucket List

We had a fun challenge over at Feeling Scrappy to do a page with 10 things you'd like to do before you "kick the bucket." I picked 10 things that are pretty much in my control anywhere I am. I already have a page where I listed places I want to visit so I didn't include any of that. This is a sketch from Pencil Lines. I had fun creating this one!


Sorry- I deleted the original post due to some spam...Go away spammers!
