Valentine's Day Mailbox

Is this not the cutest thing you've ever seen?!

Simply Mickey

This one is actually back from 2006 - Joseph's first time meeting Mickey.

Dumbo and Casey Jr.

Again, more photos from Mother's Day weekend 2007. These are some photos from Dumbo and Casey Jr.

Jungle Cruise Captain

A Day at the Lake

These photos are from a trip we took to Lake Tahoe to celebrate our 2nd wedding anniversary. We got Grandma to babysit so we could enjoy dinner at the Charthouse but these photos are from the day we spent around the lake sightseeing.

Prince among Princesses

These photos are from our Mother's Day trip to Disneyland when he had the buffet with the royal court. I like the photo with Minnie - he's a little Sleeping Beauty!

Finally got some new pages done!

It's been so long since I've made time for scrapbooking. I attended a crop though on Friday and got lots of pages done.

Jamba Juice!

Let's get one thing clear - we love Jamba Juice! We don't drink coffee at all; Jamba is our love! Joseph doesn't drink juice but when we go to Jamba Juice, it is a special treat. I love these photos because he was so happy to have his first very own cup of Jamba Juice. He just walked all over the place not letting it out of his hands. The borders on the bottom are very old - one of the first Close to My Heart items I ever made at my very first scrapbook party I attended and I've never found a reason until now to use them!

Aquarium

I did this page a few weeks ago at a crop in Reno. This is from our trip to the Aquarium in June with Kelli, Leah, and Lorene. What fun!

Joseph in Blue

These were such great photos, I had to do something nice for them. I love this blue sweater.

In Memory

In Memory of Amber who left us on September 25, 2007.
She was an angel on Earth and will be missed.

Baby Shower Card

As I've mentioned before, I really enjoy scrapbooking more than card making but I a fabulous card kit from Close to my Heart and this design was one of the suggestions but I altered it a bit to make it a baby shower card for a shower I'm attending tomorrow. Can't wait for the party...

Congrats Christine!

More baby shower stuff...

these are the tags for the baby shower favors.

They are just in progress, but I wanted to post them.

Close to my Heart

It's official... I'm a scrapbooking consultant for Close to My Heart. I've been a customer since 2005 and since moving away from my consultant, I've decided it was time to do my own thing in an effort to make some new scrapbooking friends!! Look at that great kit - so many goodies!!

Springtime Shower

This layout was a kit that I created at a scrap-gathering. It was a lot of fun. The paper is totally out of my comfort zone which was a lot of fun to do something so "girly." I had wanted to scrap the photos from Sabrina's shower but it wasn't a hot item on my priority list. So I was glad to have some of the work done for me so I could just plug in my photos and extra touches. I think it turned out quite nice!!

Boys Scrapbooking

Joseph has had a fascination with everything we are doing lately and since I've been working on the invitations, he wants to help! Robert was setting eyelets and Joseph wanted to help so here they are practicing. Too cute!

Vegas BABY!

I've hit a snag recently with my paper crafting. I had a week set aside to work on these inviations but ran into a family crisis and haven't had time for much of anything. I'm catching up though on the invitations with some help from Robert! Who knew he'd be a master with glitter!? The word, "baby" is solid glitter and the photo doesn't do it justice at all. I have to reprint the inserts because I printed the wrong date!! But they are super cute and even though they've been a labor of love, I'm really happy I did these. They are a one-of-a-kind!

Journaling Slump?

Two Peas Challenge:
When I'm in a journaling slump, I will write one word phrases or little tid-bits on the matting that is around the photo. In the layout below, I cut a small strip and wrote quick journaling on that.

I met a scrapper today

more pages from the big first birthday party

Today I was at this thing for breastfeeding and I casually brought up that I am into scrapbooking. I was talking about how it's pretty much the "getaway" time I take from being with my little one. She was there because she's a doula and basically attending for the breastfeeding information but it turns out she is a scrapbooking consultant! Yeah! That's always neat to find someone who shares the same hobby or passion!

Anyway...here's some photos of a layout I finished today... I know they're kind of bad photos but my normal camera is in the car and it's too cold to go get it!
