Create

I saw this video and it reminded me of our first retreat. I just wanted to post it so that we all had it as a reminder that "creating" in any form is in our nature. I feel so lucky to have friends that I can share my creative interests with, my faith, and who are there to support me in any manner. I LOVE MY GIRLS!

Also I am starting a craft group once a month. mostly sewing stuff I am putting together september and i am wondering who would be interested. Let me know!

So Sad...

I just wanted to show you girls what I did this morning!

Page Maps MME Challenge/Contest

So I decided to enter a contest... I have never done one before outside of ones in my own circle of friends and family. I love My Minds Eye... and that is the awesome prize! So I just had to at least put in the effort. I had so much fun putting my own twist on this sketch. Thanks to Page Maps for this fun contest. The challenge was to use this sketch and do a page about what is on your mind. Well I have been thinking a lot about my Grandpa lately and so I did my page on one memory of him. Thanks Angie for the beautiful picture.

Here is my entry to the contest:

The journaling says "I often think of that one rare trip to the grocery store with Papa to buy eggs. He carefully picked up a carton, opened the lid and wiggled each egg to make sure they were not broken. Now each time I buy eggs, I follow suit . I will always think of my Papa when I buy eggs at Winco. "

on a roll

In the last two weeks I have completed 17 pages! woo hoo for me. Scrapbooking always goes in spurts for me. Either I do a lot or I do nothing.

Here a few of my favorite layouts from my latest scrapping binge.

My AMAZING friends!
