Is it REALLY November 30th???

Where did the month go? Since its the last day I had better get my layouts posted for my November Scrappy Goals. My goal was ten layouts this month, but created a total of 15! It helped that I was on vacation in the middle of the month, it was raining like mad, and my mojo was working overtime! Here are a few more......

What do you do with ugly paper, but make a layout of a REALLY BAD moment, or in my case, dye job gone totally wrong! Still trying to figure out how to get my hair back to its normal color!

 And as you can see I'm not a chronological scrapper - my youngest DGD is now 3 years old! So glad I had these in my stash cause the soft colors are PERFECT for a baby's layout!

The DGD's version of "Where's Waldo?" *giggle!*

 I'll photo and share the others when these rains subside during daylight hours. The Pacific Northwest is a beautiful place to live, but not a great place to get photos with natural "daylight" ;-)

Thanks for stopping by. Godspeed

Turkey Time!

Aren't these the cutest little things?! Found the idea over at Our Best Bites and would love to create these with Makayla & Ruby for our Thanksgiving Dinner table! 

 Off to make that shopping list!

Special Day!

Today is a special one indeed! For it was this day 35 years ago in a small room at the Gretna Green Chapel in Las Vegas, NV that I married my best friend, the other half to my whole, and the man who has changed my life in so many ways. We've had more than our share of lives hardships, but the love we have for each other and the family and friends who have supported us along the way, make us feel like the wealthiest people on this earth! Thank you one and all!

~ forever yours ~

Almost to my goal!

This "stash shopping" has been such a blast and can't believe the kits that I have that were never touched. At one time I was scared to use too much paper for fear of running low and now I can't seem to get enough piled on each layout! Here are two "discoveries" I found last night.

Bo Bunny Kitchen Spice from 2009

As I wind down from the Cocoa Daisy crop.....

......... I'd like to share the layouts I managed to get finished. They had a HUGE selection of challenges to chose from and I really like it that way - for me its all about variety and choices!

Color Recipe

 Music Inspired

 Photo Inspiration

 Card

And my first ever Artistic Trading Card .....

There's still three or four more challenges I'd like to try, plus two more classes that I will get to one day, but for now, I'm a Happy Scrapper!

New month, new goals!

Decided that since I managed to get my layout goal met for October, why not try for November! At the moment I'm still working on the challenges from Cocoa Daisy's crop and here's another .....

This is from a sketch they provided and I'm totally going outside my comfort level lately with the paint splatters and random embellishing, but I like the outcome and will keep it up!

I'll be back tomorrow with more!

I DID IT!

I accomplished my goal of 15 layouts for the month of October! I know, I'm posting these today, Nov.1st, but it was a busy day yesterday and well, that's how I roll .... ;-)

I participated in a crop over at Cocoa Daisy last weekend and here are two of the layouts I created:

A Progressive Layout Challenge

Challenge #1 Man On The Flying Trapeze - journal with a flow

And one of the classes I was able to complete was a hardcover book turned into a mini album

I plan on working on more of the challenges in the next few days! It was a blast creating and chatting it up! Thanks DT at Cocoa Daisy!
