Blah.

So it's summer, and of course with the beautiful weather who wants to sit inside scrapping? That sounds like a good excuse why I haven't gotten anything done doesn't it? Right, we'll go with that then. Anyways, I finally finished Lisa's challenge and even did one other layout, look at me go! That's about all I have managed, pathetic I know. My scrap room is a mess and I can't even bring myself to look at it, nevermind start to organize it, so my scrapping has come to a grinding halt, which is depressing me. sigh. I am sure one day I will work up the energy to tackle it but goodness knows when. Meanwhile i'll just continue to stalk all your blogs and look at your wonderful pages with envy and longing. Later.

Lost my mojo...

So I have done almost no scrapping at all since NSD. Sucky deal. I have done one page, and invitations for the kids bday parties and that is about it. i am not even done the Home LO for Lisa's challenge. I have it all laid out and everything but I am waiting for a photo, so i am stuck on that too. I need something to get me going, scrapbook-wise. I think Vee has the right idea, going to TM for a Saturday, then maybe i could find some motivation! Anyways here are the invites I did and my one measley layout!

New....finally

So the LNC at TM on Saturday night rocked! I had so much fun, and kudos to the girls at TM for all your hard work! Veronica, Nadine and Karen were so funny " We're making memories here!" And now I have my scrap mojo back, can't wait to start scrapping today! Here are a few of my layouts from this weekend.

Once again...

So after being in the shop for almost a month, I now have my laptop back! YEAH!!!! With a new hard-drive and main board. Whatever that is. So technologically stunted. Anyways, sad thing is i haven't even done much scrapping lately either. Just a few layout to post, hopefully I'll get lots done at TM next Saturday. I finished Lisa's challenge and can't wait for the next one!

2 more..............

So here are a few more layouts....... but this will be it for awhile, we are going away this weekend. Hope everyone has a happy easter!!

Strange........

......3 layouts in 2 days????? What the heck is going on? I am so on a roll!!!!! Now if I could just keep this up!

Okay I am taking the plunge and submitting this layout for a challenge! Yeah me!

Ooops!

Here are a few layouts I just never got around to posting!

Once again....

I have to say....loved this kit! It was so fun scrapping photos of myself as a little girl! And over the course of the last week I have slowly been getting back into scrapping, now that I am done painting! Of course now Paige wants her room done, so who knows how long that will take! Anyways, here is my layout............

I still remember that robot cake! Loved it!

Crazy? Yup that's me.

So I haven't been doing much scrapbooking lately, want to know why? Because I am a crazy person. When my 7 year old son says " Mom, can we paint my room? " I say " Sure, what color? " and then he says " Camouflage! ". Yeah. So like the fool that I am I agree and so for the last 2 weeks that is all I have been doing. Granted I could have done it in less time, but after awhile you get tired of looking at spots. So here is the finish product - and take my advice, DON'T TRY THIS AT HOME!

Happy Birthday V!

So I spent Saturday at TM with all the girls to celebrate Veronica's 25th birthday ( again ) and it was awesome! Neon pink cupcakes and goodie bags full of cookies - Nadine Rocks! woo hoo! Didn't get too many pages finished, but it was great just spending the day chatting and laughing with the girls! Here is what I did get done.

I LOVE LISA!!!!

And no I don't mean myself! I just got the second of Lisa's fab kits and they so rock! It takes me no time at all to scrapbook when I use her kits. It usually takes me forever to do a page, so maybe my problem is I think to much ( ha!). Anyways, here it is.

I know I haven't posted in a long time, but those of you who know me know my 6 month old laptop recently went kaplooie. So I am not happy and our old computer is slow and ancient! But I will try to be better, promise!

What the heck happened?

So yesterday I picked up Lisa's kit from TM and took it home and immediatly got to work! Loved it! So not colors or patterns I would normally use, but I was inspired, which I think was Lisa's point. So I finished the layout in record time, usually it takes me days of thinking and pondering and revising before I finally finish a layout, but this was so awesome, so many choices already made for me. Did I mention I LOVED IT? lol Anyways, here is the final product.

That's my friend Cindy, but everyone calls her Cyn, and on MSN and other interent places she calls herself Cynful. Anyways I have had this photo for a few months but wasn't sure what to do with it. This so rocked!

2008?

Okay so 2008 has arrived. I have no resolutions, or at least no new ones. The basics still apply, eat better, lose weight, generally be a better person, try not to be a slacker in numerous different areas, yadda yadda. The same things I try to reaffirm on a daily basis, to varying degrees of success. But what can you do but keep trying? Anyways, I guess one new thing I would like to add is to scrap more. I am in such a rut lately, it not only takes me forever to get started but when I do it seems all my pages look the same. I am having issues with teal and pink right now. Everytime I try to change to a different color, they sneak up and take over my page! Here is my latest effort, see what I mean?
