fun day at Eckert's

here's another fun page about a day at Eckert's:

just a simple page I used a template on which I enjoy using to get multiple pictures on the page. The title is hand-stitched (yes...I did it again! I love the texture it adds to a page!) and the apple, pumpkin, and leaves are cardstock stickers. Liam loves petting and feeding the animals whenever he gets a chance. Last page I did of him was feeding the birds and his "selfies!" Love it!

upcoming crop at My Scraps & More!

selfies by son!

so my son was going to Eckert's with a group of friends and I asked if he wouldn't mind taking the smaller camera (so it wouldn't get lost!) and taking some pictures for me. Well, he did....120 of them to be exact! He likes taking "selfies" so I scrapped a page of them for him:

this is a really simple page: I started with the star page as the background, the title is stickers, and I hand-stitched the stars on a piece of aqua colored cardstock. That's it! Simple and easy! I really love his pics! Thanks for stopping by! Blessings and happy scrapping!

a gorgeous weekend!

this has been an awesome weekend! the weather could not have been better! It was pretty busy with the Affton Days parade and festival, working a booth at the festival and a birthday party! Friday night there was the varsity football game in which Liam got in on a few plays! It was truly a great weekend!
Tomorrow I meet with the neurosurgeon about the implant surgery for the pump I need to help me get back to walking so that's exciting and oh yeah, it's that time again for my monthly infusion of M.S. meds at the hospital. Yeah, fun! I did get a fun layout done though:

loved using the blues and the Martha Stewart "birds on a line" punch! I hand-stitched the title and really like how it turned out! thanks for stopping by and hope everyone had a blessed weekend!

new Boy Meets A Girl challenge blog

Here is a little something about the new blog by Brenshevia:
Hello everyone, welcome to Boy Meets Girl.  This blog is a combination of our About a Boy & About a Girl blogs.  I am having a lot of things on my personal plate right now so I am having to do some rearranging of my blogs.  So instead of doing away with them completely, I combined them into one.  I do hope that you will come back to play with us. We will post 2 challenges per month.  The AAB challenges will post on the 1st of each month and will run until the 15th of the month and the AAG challenges will post on the 15th of each month and run until the 30th of the month.  You are more than welcome to play along with both challenges.  Just remember AAB is boys photos only and AAG is girls only.  Again welcome to Boy Meets Girl. 

Sounds great doesn't it?! I'm excited!

last Rooster page

I had a few more photos from the couple of times we've gone to Rooster for brunch and could not resist using the Graphic 45 pages and fussy cut out the rooster! So here it is:

this was fun!

Mosaic Monday (only on Tuesday this week!)

I have always wanted to learn how to do the Mosaic Moments and I took the class at CKC last year. The class made it look and sound so easy but when I got home and tried it I just couldn't get it! Well, I went to a two day crop at a bed and breakfast for scrapbookers with some wonderful ladies I met on Club CK and one of the ladies does the Mosaic Moments and was able to show me how to do it! It was awesome! Here are my pages I completed:

Here is page 1:

here is page 2:

and here are the two pages together:

I just love the way they turned out! I hand stitched on the second page and the titles are stickers. I'm so thankful that I was able to do this under D's watchful eye! I'm going to try and do one or two for every Monday! thanks for stopping by!
