So, I've discovered

I'm not a very good blogger. Even when it involves scrapping! LOL! I have a bunch of new things to show, and a few exciting announcements! First thing's first... I have been chosen as this weeks digi-lift at The Digi Shoppe! I am actually a cheerleader for the site, so I've gotten to know the girls there a little bit, but had no idea this was coming! Click here if you're curious:)





Second thing: Nancy Comelab has come up with an exciting new feature for her blog.

See my name there?! Every week each one of her CT girls will "hijack" her blog and run a contest that goes for that week. Prizes are promised to be generous, which is always the way with Nancy! My scheduled week will be the very last week of August/ first week of September, so make sure you mark your calendar!

And now my recent pages:

This I scrapped with Lauren Reid's cute Hot Momma to Be kit. I love that it isn't too cutesy but still creative enough to scrap those pregnancy photos! This was taken about a week before I had Noah. I wanted to do something creative here, and decided to list all the names we were considering, along with some random "favorite facts" of mine at the time. This is how Noah spends his time when we are relaxing on the deck. The kid cannot sit still to save his life! I used Joana Carvalho's new kit called "little fish boy." The thing I absolutely love about Joana's stuff is her eclectic style. Her pieces are so unique and can never be found in others' designs.
And my final page... this is Noah's first experience with grass. It's always fun to see a child discover something for the first time. One of my favorite things about having kids, I think. I made this with a heavily altered template by Tiff Brady/2 sister designs and threw in some Christina Renee painted glitter to give it an "earthy" feel. I think is probably my favorite one so far. It was a lot of fun to do!

So this is what happens...

when you get overly excited about your new creative teams! These past few days I managed to scrap 3 LO's.



This one uses Joana's Pomegranate Margarita kit (you might recognize these pics taken last summer of Kira and her groovy sunglasses!).

FEELIN' GROOVY

The next two are for Christina Renee. This one includes many of her new products out this week... it's a picture of the first time I really got to hold Noah. He was 5 days old.

HOLDING YOU

And this is the new FPD collab kit out this week. Again, old pics... taken a month after Noah was born. It was so cute to see Kira interact with Noah when he was just a newborn!(Mindy, link me up if you scrap with this!)

BABY BROTHER

And that's all for now:) All the credits can be seen at my gallery here.

Exciting News

I thought I'd start this off by sharing some fun news! Just a few weeks ago I had decided I needed to make some changes with my creative teams because it was starting to feel a bit overwhelming. As hard as it was to say goodbye, I stepped down from Kaye Winiecki's team. Well, life has been CRAZY since then. In just the past week, I've received 3 different invitations to join some AMAZING teams. I am now a proud creative member of Nancy Comelab, Lauren Reid, and Joana Carvalho! I cannot believe it, really. I feel so honored to have been asked! To top this all off, I was also personally invited to join as a guest this month for Christina Renee AND Zoe Pearn. For those of you who don't know these ladies, you'll be seeing many future LO's with their goodies, so stay tuned! You can also check out their stores by clicking on their respective blinkies. Thank you, ladies for the wonderful opportunity!

Here we go!

I am so excited to be starting an official scrap blog. It seems like these days every scrapper has one, and quite frankly I didn't see the need. Well, I've received some feedback about the family blog... namely, it should consist of more family and less scrapping! LOL! So, I decided to devote a blog to my scrap life, that way those who don't care will not be forced to read :) Let the games begin!
