Artwork

I know it is hard to believe that I have artwork to post.  This was an assignment for a class I am taking with Big Picture Scrapbooking, it is called “Get Organized, Be inspired. 

Ok, that is not my art work, this is my art work, it is using some of the new Close To My Heart paper, it is called Emporium.

Holiday Excitment

I hope each of you had a great holiday!  Our house was a little different this year.  We had done all our family Christmas’s in the last couple of week-ends and so Christmas day was just us!  One of my sons and I never even got dressed!  We built with Lego’s, played WII and played board games.  WE had a great time.  It was so nice. 

Today we did some shopping and tonight, I am in the basement for the first time working on a project that I have wanted to do for a long time.  I am working on planning a baby book for one of the swim coaches.  It is exciting.  I think on Sunday I will actually get some time to scrapbook.    I will plan on sharing some pictures next week.   – ART WORK – WOW how exciting.
