So my buds Greta and Simone are doin' a challenge blog called Scrap Your Crap.
and IM ALL OVER IT cuz I gotta put a dent in my stash.
so here is what I did....
I used some Christmas paper from basic grey and soem other older basic grey and some creative imaginations pp that is valentines...
I used buttons from making memorys and some doodlebug sugar (LOVE THAT STUFF) on my basic grey wilma letters (LOVE THAT FONT. Also some liquid pearls (whehew love that too) oh that prima butterfly that I pop dotted. YEAH I KNOWWWWW I left an L out of the title I just found it... so Im gonna fix that if I can.. if not then ooops..
St. Paddys Day is or would have been my mom and dad's anniversary. It is a depressing day for my mom since daddy got killed. soooooooOOOOOo I always flood her with cards and stuff that week for ST. Paddys day to kinda make her smile a little.
here are the ones I have made so far to mail her.
These are from the Rusty Pickle LUCKY LINE I LOVE me some Rusty Pickle lately. Their stuff has rocked this past show. I like a couple of the new lines coming out but not as much as the last cha releases.
sorry..
I am still working on them so I can start mailing them all out.
Some good news: Bella's hair actually doesn't look that bad after we washed it and stuff. when I pull it back in a barette you can't really tell it was cut up just like maybe we layered it in spots .. sorta. The bangs is the worst part. I have this fear she is gonna have this big STRAIGHT UP piece like Dennis the Mennis in her Easter Photos.
Other news.. I got my box back yesterday that I had sent over seas for a pub. I had several layouts coming out in a well known over seas magazine. I DONT THINK this is their fault I think it is the LOVERLY US POSTAL SERVICE..... I have had MANY GRIPES with them and OH lord do I have a big one right now.
My box looked like literally a herd of elephants played soccer with it. or do you remeber that american tourister I think it was called luggage commercial where the gorilla jumps up and down and throws the suitcases all over tarnation? well ughmm YEAH that is what my box looked like. MY HEART SANK. My layouts were dinged up a little nothing that some adhesive won't fix but man I could just imagine them CRUMPLED to the max in side that box holy cow. I know one of them is gonna be in the September edition of the magazine more info on that later when I get more info.
I have been scrappin like crazy trying to catch up on some things. I was looking through Bella's books and noticed that I have been slackin on some of the eventish type pages like for Easter and things.. I dont do pastels well.. that is my trouble area. so Maybe that is why I always put those to the back. BUT I KNOW we have a big field trip coming up next month for Easter with her class I CANNOT WAIT to go on.
Maybe I can borrow that hap hazard suit from teh EPA so I can start getting out some... Im thinking a motorcycle helmet and leather gloves and stuff woudl be cool lookin I mean if you gotta go and do stuff at least you can cool it while ya try to stay germ free.. Oh well was a thought... guess Im stayin my butt home since we all just had the flu but THAT IS JUST IT... I have been staying home 'cept going to the dr and STILLLLLLLLLL got the friggin flu!! so ya cant win.
