Long Time No Blog

I knew it had been a long time since I'd posted on my blog, but I didn't realize it had been this long! I sincerely hope to change that, starting with this post. I know I have lots of photos to add because I've made a lot of projects in more than a year! Keep your eyes peeled for new stuff!

October Snow

Our first really big snowstorm came at the end of October and I was happy to get to get these photos scrapped. This was sketch challenge #3, but there were no requirements. I love this one!

First Christmases

Here's another layout from a sketch challenge. This one was more difficult for me. The requirements were using paper you'd been hoarding for at least six months, use two photos from different events or times, and no cardstock except for the journaling. After I found the photos it came together pretty easily.

Friends

I made this fun layout for a sketch challenge. The requirements were: use a piece of paper that you had had for more than a year, one piece of chipboard, and some buttons. I had exactly the right amount of photos that I needed.

Masculine Birthday Cards

I needed some masculine birthday cards so I used some of my favorite paper and came up with these.

Scrapbook in a Purse

I got this pattern from a bulletin board and just love how easy it is to make one of these! I've made two like the pink one and given them away as gifts, and then I made the "western" one and gave it to my friend Penny who has always been a cowgirl. I need to make one for me and actually put photos and journaling in it! (Sorry the bottom photo is blurry - I was in a hurry and only took one shot.)

Perfect Day Cards

This is a 10-card workshop I made up for a class this past weekend. I really love this paper and these colors.
