Boy have I been busy lately, with my 11 year old playing softball and my 18 year old being pregnant and suffering some medical issues, I seem to always be going going going. But on the other side of the coin, I destress and unwind by making layouts. The first two were made using the soon to be released kit from Crafty Scraps called DooDah DooDah:

Now these next two were done using the April 2009 "Free with Purchase" kit from Crafty Scraps:

And finally these two were made using freebies from CraftyScraps.blogspot.com so be sure to go over and check it out.

This one is a sampler freebie, Raggity Love:

And this is a freebie quickpage using her kit Stitched With Love:

New CT = New Layout

WooHoo!!! I was accepted by Michelle at Crafty Scraps for her CT. And with a new CT comes new layouts. So without further adoo from her latest kit DooDah DooDah...
This picture of Dani is from about 24 years ago. Her mom just recently came across this photo and sent it to me. I thought this kit would be great for scrapping the photo and I love the way it came out. Be sure to check out Crafty Scraps at http://craftyscraps.blogspot.com/ to see what else is going on and to subscribe to her newsletter.

The following layout is from some old kits I had in my files from Scrappin Dead Girls. I was birdsitting my son's bird for a few days and just had to take a photo. This is the result...

Back to Normal

After several computer problems and lost files, I have managed to finally get back to my scrapping. So many things have happened since I was last on blogger. I won't bother you with too much of it but just have to share this one thing. Come October 2009, I will become a grandmother for the first time!!! My oldest daughter is expecting. We don't know if she's having a boy or girl yet but guarantee once we know, so will you. LOL Also you can expect plenty of pages regarding this blessed event! I'm still in the process of transferring files to the new computer and once everything is unzipped and loaded, I'll start uploading new layouts. That's all for now. See you soon.

Been having a hard time...

For those of you that didn't know, I lost the twinz. My body just wasn't able to handle all the changez of going off my medz and being so sick and in such pain. It iz devastating to say the least but I honestly believe it just wasn't the time. I need to finish healing before I even think about carrying a child let alone two. I've been away from my computer so much that right now I have over 2000 unread emailz and two weekz worth of bookkeeping to catch up on. Az soon az I can sift through the mail and get some motivation to "create", I'll be back. I'm still planning to finish my part of the "Ocean Friends" collab to benefit the Shriner's but other than that, I'll have to see. Thankz for all the kind wordz and prayerz, they're much appreciated. Hope to be back soon...

I'm on a new CT and I have more layoutz to share!
