Since I was pretty productive on our scrap day I figured I’d spread the love over a couple of days. After my warm up layout I went a little crazy with this one: I tired to do some layering, but I think maybe it was a little much. I am giving my self some bonus …

Scrap date
Sarah and I often have scrap dates at my house and they are always a treat. Our fun time last weekend was no exception. I move a little folding table into my craft room (and the upholstered chair out) and we are quite comfy with all our supplies right at hand. My first layout is …
The scrappy result
I’m actually surprised how much scrapbooking Sarah and I got done on our little adventure. I think not having a lot of supplies to dig through makes things go quicker, at least it does for me. If only I could remember this when I’m staring at a cute new patterned paper. You saw my “warm …
A little me time
Nothing will halt online computer work like slow upload speeds and silly internet problems. I took this as a sign last Friday that I should take the afternoon off and scrapbook. I have a pile of pictures printed and not even in the simple three-up albums I keep them in. I need to clean out …

Words—Step by Step
I thought I would give a look into my process for one of my layouts. I’ve seen great examples of scrapbookers doing this. Nichol Magouirk is starting a weekly feature of her start to finish process, Marcy Penner did a post about the anatomy of one of her layouts, and most recently Christine Middlecamp just …
Scrapbooking and Shooting
Oh my those were some good family days. I love that most about the holidays, being together. My lovely friend was visiting from Vermont and I squeezed in a photo shoot for her on Christmas Eve morning. It was so dark and cloudy and yuck. But some creative furniture re-arranging and popping outside for a …
Artistic. Each in our own way
Tuesday and I have been being artistic lately. I need to get even more crafty, but that will require a holiday gift list. Right now we are just creating for who ever 🙂 I found some sweet paper at an estate sale last summer so Tuesday is doing some fine artwork: I am completely enamored …
Simple scrapbooking
Sarah and I had another fun craft day together last weekend. I was going for super simple on my layouts, since we usually talk more than we scrap. 🙂 The name was cut with the Silhoutte, it’s only in two pieces. I found that welding (over lapping the letters) is really easy to do, and …
The first cuts
Oh Best scrapbooking (and lots more) tool ever! I’m going to give you a little review, based on my whole three days of ownership 🙂 I am in love with my new Silhouette SD! I took it to my in-laws this weekend and played around with the software (which is brand new and works with …
