My cute little boys and another quick page freebie for you!

While we were in Mammoth Lakes we enjoyed the scenery.  I will get some pictures up later but here is a layout I did with my two youngest after we took a little "hike" up the back hill!

Well, I guess I am biased!  They were just so silly that day.  They had "mixed emotions" about the "hike" that is why I put that there.  We had fun though just the three of us!

I adore this kit In Pieces.  She has all these different parts of the kit and they go so well together.  All the images below are linked to the store.

Pint Sized Patriot quickpage freebie for you all!

I had a wonderful 4th of July holiday.  We went to Mammoth Lakes and enjoyed the parade.  The boys were not too keen on it but I enjoyed it.  Where we live there is no parade.  They have a fireworks display at the mall but I don't really enjoy that either so this was a treat for me.  Believe it or not but we did without the fireworks this year because the hubby and I both were so exhausted from the day.  But I still had a great time with my boys.

Here is a page I did with Wimpychompers' Pint Sized Patriot:
Yes, that is all of my boys together in one place at one time!  It is a miracle.  See I do have 7.  Some of you might wonder on that because I never have them all on one page (at least that is how it seems!) 

I have to share with you this cute kit.  I love it! 
See!  Isn't it so cute?  I just love all the little kids in this kit.  The word art is fun too!

Well, I had to make a quick-page for you because I loved this kit soooo much!  Here it is.  I hope you enjoy it!
https://app.box.com/s/7w5for099hsuvkqao05kibskskj0xqh6
I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.  Yes, this is a 4th of July page for those of us in America but for those of you in other countries keep tuned because I have more QP's coming very soon.  So please just click on the image above or go HERE to pick up your QP.  Thank you for stopping by!

Easter with a Freebie!

Hello all!  I have another freebie QP for you and I hope you like it.  Have you ever had pictures that just never seemed to get scrapped even though you have so many kits that would do the job!  Well, I have a lot of those!  

Wimpychompers helped me out and has made a very cute Easter kit named Eggstra Cute that I wanted to share with you today.
http://store.gingerscraps.net/Eggstra-Cute.html
I finally got some more pictures from 2004 done.  Yes, it has been 11 years waiting!  Naughty me!  These are some of the pictures I was talking about that just sit there never to be used.  So here is my first layout with my son Jonny (yes, 11 years ago!).
Isn't he just so darn cute?  He loves coloring eggs even with a pappy in his mouth!  Yes, a bit old for pappies but oh well what are you going to do?  It pacified him!

The second page is of my son Michael.
I just love his smile!  He still has the same cute smile as always. 

TIP for everyone!  Now I have to say these do not have any journaling on them because I could not think of anything to say at the time but I think I might go back a write a little something now that I have thought about it a bit.  So my tip to you is if don't think you can add journaling later that is not true.  Just add it to a blank area.  This is your album!  Just do it!  (Ha ha!  Did you get the slogan put in there?)   

So here is my quickpage for you to play with.  I hope you enjoy it!
Click on the picture or HERE to get the QP.  Yes, this does say QP2 but my QP1 and I had a "falling out" as of sort and I don't think I will be revisiting the one anytime soon.  Enjoy!

New Quick Page - Steady Aim!

Another beautiful kit that came out in the group of kits made by Wimpychompers!  
http://store.gingerscraps.net/Steady-Aim.html
I am just loving these kits.  I just wish I had more photos to scrap with them.  My kids are not really that into some of these, like hunting but they love shooting with Dad.  I don't have any pictures of that though.  Ha ha!  I wonder why?  

So I thought this picture would be perfect for this kit.  This is a picture of a little visitor we found on our back porch of our cabin up in Mammoth Lakes.  What a surprise it was.  My husband just sat there watching him for quite some time.  It was funny how fascinated he is with wildlife.  I just warned him and everyone else that they are NEVER to approach such an animal!
And so, since I did finish the layout I had to make it into a quick-page for all of those who would like it.  Enjoy!  As always you can click HERE or on the image below to take you to the download.

A QP Freebie and New layouts done!

I had a very busy week doing layouts.  Most of the kits I used were not to be released until this weekend so I saved them all up to share with you this week.  This first one is of my hubby and I three years ago.
This was done with Key to My Heart by Luv Ewe Designs;
http://store.gingerscraps.net/Key-To-My-Heart-kit.html
http://store.gingerscraps.net/Key-To-My-Heart-Embossed.html
http://store.gingerscraps.net/Key-To-My-Heart-Extra-Papers.html
http://store.gingerscraps.net/Key-To-My-Heart-Templates.html
 I just love this kit and the extras that go along with it.  They are all on sale right now for 50% off in the Buffet part of the store.  They only stay on sale for the first few days of the month so run over there to get them.
Next, I did a Valentines Page with Luv Ewe Designs new kit Skip A Beat!
http://store.gingerscraps.net/images/P/led_skipabeat_preiewGs.jpg
 Here is my page I did:
And here is the quick page I made to share with you.  I hope you like it.  You can get it HERE or click on the picture.

Sugar Gumdrops quickpage freebie #2

I just love this kit:
Sugar Gumdrops by Wimpychompers.  Isn't it just so cute!  I love all the little gingerbread kids.  I am a sucker for gingerbread elements.  But I didn't use the gingerbread kids this time since I used them on the opposite page. 
I decided to go and use one of AK Designs Stackers Pack 1.  I had to get her buy the store bargains at the end of the year last year, especially since I have loved her designs since she started many years ago.  Of course, because I am me, I forgot to get the remainder of the kits by the end of the year so I missed out on quite a few of her templates but I have almost all her templates so that will last for awhile.  The font I used is Colonna MT.

I am sure most of you are here for the freebie so here it is.  Click on the image or HERE.

I hope you enjoy it!  Have a great day!

Gumdrops quickpage freebie! Yum!

I have been accepted onto another Creative Team.  This time it is Wimpychompers from GingerScraps.  I love her designs.  I am so excited to be part of her team.

Here is her newest kit:
http://store.gingerscraps.net/Sugar-Gumdrops.html
Sugar Gumdrops.  What a cute kit.  I love it!  I am a sucker for anything with Gingerbreads on them.

So here is my first page I made using this kit:

Christmas Eve the boys always get Christmas Eve Pajamas.  They look forward to this every year.  They even say this is our Christmas Tradition that they look forward to.
So here they are enjoying their new pajamas.

In addition to using Sugar Gumdrops, I also used the font Champignon.  I love how it adds a little prettiness to the page. 

Now that I have made a page, I have a quick-page for you.  I hope you like this page.  Enjoy!
Here is the preview.  Just click on it or go HERE.

Cluster Freebie and Daniel's My Little Artist using a new kit by Luv Ewe Designs

Here is my most recent layout of my son.  This is my 11 year old doing what he does best. Draw. He loves to draw. He is always drawing, even when he is hanging out with friends. These are pictures of him drawing a self portrait on the sidewalk that a friend sent me while he was with her. What a sweetie pie he is.

This is the kit I used.  I used the template also that is in this bundle so I didn't make a quick page this time. 
Just Breathe Bundle by Luv Ewe Designs

Here is a little freebie I have made for you.  This time it is a cluster.  You can use it as cluster on top of a paper for a full layout.  This is a full 12x12 page and you can resize to fit your needs.  I hope you enjoy it.  Click the image below or HERE to get your freebie!

Tis the Season! A bit late! QP for you too!

Okay, well I guess I am goofy because there is a Color Challenge at GingerScraps that I wanted to  participate in this month but I didn't realize that the kits I used were only at Gotta Pixel.  The color is green so here is what would have been my contribution:

Getting ready for the Christmas season was not easy this year.  I finally got a little help from my youngest. Trimming the tree.
I used:
Boughs of Holly Elements by Luv Ewe Designs
Boughs of Holly Torn Papers by Luv Ewe Designs
Boughs of Holly Embossed Papers by Luv Ewe Designs
Boughs of Holly Alphas by Luv Ewe Designs

So, of course, I made a quick page for all of those wonderful scrappers out there that need or want it.  Have fun!
Either click on the image or click HERE.  Have a great day!

Another Freebie-Wordart! Another page!

I finally got another page done.  I had to stay up REALLY late to get it done but I did it!

I wanted to get this page done because I have been thinking about my brother lately.  We lost him this past summer due to complications with two Grand Mal Seizures.   I wish I could have taken more pictures of him at the time but didn't due to the fact I didn't want to invade his privacy or make him feel weird.

I love this page because I finally used real journaling in a page.  This page will help me remember him the way I want to.  Happy and loving!  Wanting to live and wanting to please my mother.  But most of all my little brother that wanted so bad to be what the Lord would want him to be.
The journaling is might bore you but it reads:

What a special day this turned out to be.  Mom and I got to spend the day with Harris and he was so happy.  He loved the shirts that we picked out to wear for him.  He was smiles and even laughter on his part, even though it was hard for him to do so.  His smile still to this day will burn into my soul.  His favorite part was the jewels that was attached to our shirts.  He laid there holding the gems and caressing them.  We all enjoyed the time we got to spend together.  It was one of the last days that I got to spend with him before he died.  I will always cherish this day that we had.

I was looking for a quote that would fit this page perfectly and I finally found this page on MamaNYC.  There are many ideas and quotes here.  Try it out.  Maybe I will make some more word art using a few more of these soon.  If anyone has a request for one of them to be made into word art let me know and I will attempt to.


I used Little Miss Page Kit a collab from Luv Ewe Designs and CathyK Designs

I didn't make a quick page this time but I did save the word art for you.  It is saved at a 300 pixels/inch and a large 9.81"x 8" so you can use it for whatever your project will be (even vinyl).  I hope you like it.
https://app.box.com/s/xk7omzfg5i1otmnquf95
I am trying out box.com so bare with me.  I hope this works.  I have tried to attach the link to the image if you can not get it to work try HERE.

Thank you for stopping by and I hope you have a great day!

A Freebie! A new CT! A new layout!

I have finally decided to get back into digital scrapping again.  I have done a few pages but not really much in the past couple years but I feel the need to start again.

So a couple weeks ago I applied for a Guest CT for Luv Ewe Designs and I made it.  I am so happy.  I love her designs.  I started on January 1st!

Here is my first layout for my new CT position.  I hope you like it!
These are two photos of my mother and I at the hospital visiting my brother. One day we came with the same color of shirt and everyone that saw us had to comment. What is funny is that we don't even look alike but it was nice to feel like her daughter for once. We had so much fun with it that we went to the store and found matching shirts again except this time in my brother's favorite color. It was so nice to see his smiling face when we came in. He loved my mother's attached necklace too.  He laid there and played with the necklace most of the time we were there.

I used Little Miss Page Kit a collab from Luv Ewe Designs and CathyK Designs.  I also used my Pinterest page of Scrapbook Inspiration and found this great post and a wonderful sketch you should try out at Ideas for Scrapbookers by Pam Callaghan.
 
 
I also used Birds of Paradise Font on this page.

It has become one of my favorite fonts for script writing.  Unfortunately it doesn't have the numbers but that is okay, I improvised.

Now on to the little give away for today.  I have made this page into a Quick Page for all that is interested.  Here is the preview:
http://www.4shared.com/zip/CVO10im-ce/LittleMissPageKitQP1.html
 If I did this correctly, when you click on the image it will take you to the download.  If not, here it is again, just click HERE.

I hope you all enjoy it.  Have a great day!

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.
