Finishing up 2009

I have been trying to get my scrapping from 2009 finished up. I still am waiting on a few photos from realtives (hint, hint Tammy), but I still have photos from Christmas to scrap, and this years' photos which are starting to pile up, so I'm not running out of photos. (Not to mention all the photos I have un-scrapped from the past 8 or so years...LOL). I do have a couple of layouts to share with you that I've done recently from 2009 and one from 2010.

Sharing Time!

I have been trying to finish up scrapbooking my photos from last year. Here are a few layouts that I've done in the past few days.

Catch Up

I just wanted to share some pages I've been working on lately. I have cut back to being on only 2 creative teams, so I have more time now for my own scrapbooking. Will someone tell that to my kids?

Catch-Up

I have been trying to take some time and catch up on my scrapbooking. I am determined not to fall behind on my current book! If I can keep up from here on out, then maybe I can go back and work on years past. So, since my CT work has been a little slow the past week I have been doing some more personal pages. Here are a few for your viewing pleasure.

"Bear Lake", "Swing" & a new project

A couple more pages to share.

I am also working on a new project - a portrait book. I have all of these portraits in a box that I have meaning to make a book out of, so now I'm doing it! Each page has the same basic layout, just the colors and accents vary. The date strip, stitching and info box stay the same, to lend continuity to the book. Here is an example:

 

There will be lots of freebies next week (probably one per day!) so please come back and visit!

10,000 Hits and a Freebie!

We have reached 10,000 hits! Wa hoo! To celebrate, I created a template for you based on one of my recent LOs.

I hope you like it!

If you download and use it please leave me a link so I can see your take on it.

"First Day of Kindergarten"

My oldest just started kindergarten about three weeks ago. He was so excited. He loves school! I did this LO to commemorate his first day. 

This LO was chosen as a Gallery Standout over at Faith Sisters! And it was featured in "Made You Look Monday" on the Faith Sisters blog. Woo hoo!


Almost all the product I used is from Three Paper Peonies. I love her designs! I think most of it was her "School" kit, with pieces from the "California" kit.
Jamie is having a challenge right now on her blog. If you create a layout using her product, about a summer memory, you will be entered to win the full School kit! You want this kit, trust me! She has four or five free itty-bitty kits on the blog (including the School one). Go get started!

"Check-Up," "A See-Saw Built for Three," "City Creek" and "Happy Birthday"

I have just a couple of new LOs to share with you before you get your next freebie tomorrow.

"My Eternal Family," "Happy Birthday Noah," "Splash"

It's been a while since I posted any of my non-CT layouts, so here you go. Just a couple that I have done recently.

"This is the Place"

I just wanted to share another layout I have done recently.

"Happy Birthday Opa!," "Hogle Zoo"

I have been so busy working on pages from 2008 that I am falling a little behind on my 2009 pages! Oops. I am going to get caught up before I'm too far behind though. I don't want to have more catch up work than I already have!

"Why I Do What I Do"

"Thunderbirds" and "Easter Eggs"

As I am getting back to my own scrapbook work I find that I'm having a bit of a creativity block. Maybe I need to take a break, or look through my scrapbooking magazines again. I'll work on that. In the meantime, I'll share a page or two with you that I've done recently.

"Yellow John Canyon"

A personal page about the hike we took up Yellow John Canyon yesterday.(Click to enlarge)

Everything I used, except the glitter leaves, came from the "Why Don't We" SYTYCD kit by Sweet Digi Scraps.
