Some layouts and another Freebie Template for you!

Hello everyone! I am more and more scarce lately aren't I? I do apologize. I just can not get back into the swing of things with the boys in school. You would think that it would be the opposite but now I have to entertain my 3 year old and that is a full time job in just that and the 8 month baby that thinks he has to learn to get into everything. LOL! Busy, busy mommy here!

I did get some layouts done. Here is the first one titled 2 Cute 4 Words. Here is my baby last month. Almost 8 month old here. Boy they grow up fast.Wording: 2 Cute 4 words Look at those chubby cheeks!

I used Mixed Melons by Tracy Blankenship; template: Template 33 by Kim Hollibone (kimlizzy) ; font: A Yummy Apology

This second layout is also of my baby. wording: After a long flight Travis did not want anything to do with anyone. He just sat in his seat and drank his milk hoping to be left alone.

I used the kit: Angel Spirit by Angel Zimmer at Digitals; template: Layered Template 32 by Simply Sarah on her blog; font:Amienne.

Here is the third layout of my baby just a few weeks ago. I have named this one Love,Hope,Faith after the name of the template that I used. I have also tried my hand at black and white. I will see how I like it.

I used Falling for Butterflies by Sophia Davies ; template: dranet-FaithHopeLove by Tracy Drane on her blog.



And finally I have made a new template and this is what I did with it:

Here are my kids playing at the park with some friends of theirs. They are so funny climbing on the little kids equipment but having so much fun.

Kit I used: Untouched by Dea Spina ; template by me below; font: Earwig Factory

Some layouts done with Italy by Request by Silvia Romeo


I did some layouts this weekend with Silvia Romeo's kit Italy by Request. Now, I wanted to use the special papers in this kit because they are so nice but I really didn't know how to use them with such bland photos. So here is what I decided to do with this kit. Birthdays.

The first layout is a page I did for my niece Rheanna. Her birthday was the day she left so we had a little party for her right before she left. Cake for breakfast? Yup! The journaling is just some sentiments I put on there for her.









The second layout is of my Mother in law's birthday. We celebrate with her every year on her birthday. My kids are sitting at the table with her at the bottom.

This was a fun kit to work with. Thanks for looking gals!

Bunch of Circles Template Freebie! And some layouts!


I have done a couple of layouts with School Stuff kit by Scrap4Brains (Cristina Guillermo) for the Digitals CT. What a cute kit. I love the bright colors.

I have also used Multi Photos 1 Layered Templates (page 1) by Dea Spina and the font is Comic Sans MS.

This one is First day of school bus ride

Lots of journaling here so I won't spell it all out. Basically, the kids got to go to school on the first day of school on an empty bus. They didn't mind. We all thought it was funny!

This one is made also with School Stuff kit by Scrap4Brains (Cristina Guillermo) , the template by me below and the font is Comic Sans MS. It is actually a scraplift of csuramsrule's Sandis Paints at Digitals. Then I made a template out of it for everyone else to enjoy!

Here are the boys walking to the bus stop the first day of school.Wording:They just would not slow for anyone to catch up with them. I had to run to even get close.

Now I have also made another layout with this template and it will be up on the next newsletter at Digitals so go and check it out. Also, there are always some great tips and freebies there too-take a look!

So go pick up this template HERE if you want it. Enjoy!

Another layout I did with my new template. I just removed the "I". I have used Michelle Mauch's Chili Pepper Splash on this layout. I loved the colors and the brightness of it. I hope you all like the template! Go get it in the previous post!
"I" Freebie Template and lots of fun things going on!

Hello everyone! See the above ad, well it was made with a quickpage I made and you can get for free if you participate in the challenge explained below!

I know I have been quite laxed on getting things done around here but I have a new freebie for you. Go below to get it. But first take a look at our challenge at Digitals we have going. AND....We have a chat going on tomorrow afternoon and night. I will be hosting with Selana at 4:00pm EST and with Diana Burton at 8:00pm EST. I look forward to seeing everyone there.


Now the challenge this month is going to be a really fun one! We have two kits to play with and they both have a great theme about them but they don't have to be used just for that purpose. They are both very versatile.

Over the Hill Gang is by Diana Burton and I think it is just such a fun kit to play with. I love the beautiful colors and the splash of black makes it look so elegant. Now don't forget that this doesn't have to only be for birthdays it can be for anything fun!

Surfer Boy Kit is by Selana. Now this one is perfect for any type of beach or tropical pictures. But remember don't just stop there. There are so many possibilities here too. Think of all the fun photos that you can use with this kit too!
Now I finally got time and scrapped this morning. I have used my I template for these two layouts.

This first layout was done using The Road to Commencment by Nini's Notions over at Digitals. I am just getting these done for last month for the Digitals CT I am on. I feel bad that my computer died and didn't let me get these done before now but I had so much fun with this kit on this page. What a lot of fun papers to play with.
Font is Arnprior.





Okay, now you have seen what I have done with the template show me yours!

A bit about me

I am a stay at home mother of 7 boys that keep me busy all day, but I love to create in many different ways when I have a few minutes to myself. Since my youngest is finally in the double digits, I am able to have a little more time to myself to create. I love crafting in any way, shape, or form and I would like to share that with you. I also enjoy cooking, baking, and gardening which I hope to share with you too.
