Happy Anniversary to ME!

Okay so I'm a day late on posting this but not in celebrating hee hee. Yesterday was my 8 year wedding anniversary! And although 8 years is a long time to be married I actually have been with my sweet hubby for 16 years. We are high school sweethearts - started dating when we were juniors in high school - and have been together ever since! There are just so many wonderful things I can say about my husband that I won't even attempt to list in a blog post, but I will say that he is the perfect man for me in every way and I love him more and more with each passing day. I'm really excited because I have a layout upcoming in the February 2009 issue of Scrapbook Trends magazine that commemorates our love and how we first met. It's so exciting to have a layout published but to have one published that celebrates my relationship with my husband is just that much more special to me! :)

Layouts to share!

Been a while since I posted so I've got quite a few layouts to share. All were done for Got Sketch 102 which is now in its fourth and final week. It's not too late to sign up though as the class content and site will remain open after the live class has ended. This class is all layouts so if you've got lots of photos to scrap register now! :)

I used the Scarlet Lime September mini kit for this layout. I love the fun and funky colors and patterns on these papers especially the new Sassafras Lass. And the colors coordinated perfectly with Brandon's clothing and tricycle.


A girly layout! Don't get to see many of these from me huh? This is my sweet little niece Una. I took these pictures of her while we were on our annual family vacation in Ocean City, NJ. I love the way they turned out and was so happy I got to use some flowers and bling on my pages (although I've been known to use both on my boy layouts as well LOL). I used a fun ribbon rippling technique on this page that Val shared in one of the classroom tips.


And last but not least. Another layout for Got Sketch 102 that I just completed today. This is actually taken for a two-page sketch that Janna provided today but I chose to use only one of the pages for this particular layout. I love that sequence of photos of Salar and Brandon. And yes even though I'm busy snapping away with my camera my breath still catches in my throat when he throws him up like that although I know he'll never drop him.


Phew! That was a lot of layouts! LOL I actually have been REALLY busy lately and scrapping quite a bit but most of it is for publication calls or other projects that I can't quite share yet. Soon though! ;)

Something NEW is coming your way!

Watch for it on October 1st!
