Another Scrappin’ Weekend

I spent another weekend scrapbooking. This time Nadine made the long trek from Saskatchewan to spend the weekend in my craft room. I only managed to get 15 pages done, but we did make a few shopping trips and I had to cook a few meals (okay, only two, but still).

I haven’t scanned any of the pages I made last weekend, but here are a few that I made on the retreat.

This one is about the hot hubby's style, or lack there of, during the winter months.

Just a radom picture of the two of us from January.

I snapped this picture with my new Digital Rebel, while the hubby was trying to enjoy his breakfast.

Have a gooder,

Retreat

3 nights, 4 days, 11 fabulous ladies & 34 pages....

A couple weekends ago I went on a scrapbooking retreat with some of my friends. I had an awesome time and manage to complete 34 pages while I was there. I finally finished 2005 and am almost up to date with this year. It is so nice to get away from the everyday distractions and focus on creating. I can't wait until the next retreat in September!

Here is one of my favourite pages from the weekend.

Busy, Busy, Sick, Busy...

The last month has been crazy!! I have been travelling quite a bit for work and then right smack in the middle of the craziest week, I got the flu. I haven’t had the flu since I was a little kid. Without going into the nasty details, I will just say losing 5 pounds in one day isn’t as exciting as it sounds ;)

On a happier note, I won a challenge on the Scrap n’ Supply Shack blog and received lots of American Craft goodies!! Here is a look at what Shannen sent me (Thanks Shannen!!)

I did manage to get a few layouts done over that last month. I am just about finished my 2005 album. I am so sick of scrapbooking “old” pictures so I think I am going to start my 2009 album before I start catching up on 2006.

What I’ve been up to…

I have been super busy that last week or so and have hardly had any time to scrapbook. I did however, do lots of crafting!! I hosted a very good friend of mine’s baby shower at my house on Sunday. It was lots of work, but definitely well worth it. Here are some pictures the decorations/favor/cards that I made for the party.

The welcome banner at the front door.

Large banner. Please ignore my empty shelves, it is a work in progress.

One of the Baby banners above the windows.

Another Baby banner over the fireplace.

The favor boxes were filled with Sour Soothers.

I made onesie thank-you cards as a gift for the Mommy to Be.

The comfiest chair for the Mommy to Be.

One of the games we played.

The Mommy to Be & Me. The matching shirts were a total fluke.

The planning committee & the Mommy to Be.

I wouldn’t have been able to get all done without my partner in crime/slave labor Michelle. Thanks again for all of the help!!

Now that the shower is over I should have lots of time to scrapbook, but first I have to clean my craft room, which after last weekend is a disaster zone!! Wish me luck…

Have a gooder!!

Catching Up

I am really looking forward to this weekend, I have two scrapbooking dates! Tonight I am going to a late night crop and on Sunday a couple girlfriends and I are getting together to scrapbook. I have a feeling it is going to be a great weekend!

Here are a couple more layouts that I did last fall, but never got around to posting. Hopefully after this weekend I will have lots of new pages to show!

Giving it Another Shot…

After a long hiatus I have finally decided to resurrect my blog and this time I am determined to keep it updated. The last couple of months I have really missed scrapbooking’s on-line community. I miss the message boards, the on-line galleries & the blogs. I really need some inspiration to kick start my creativity and I think that this is the best way to do it.

And, since a post with out pictures is boring here are some layouts that I did last fall that I never got around to posting.

Have a gooder,

Done Like Disney

Finally, after only a year and half, I have finished my Disney album! It feels so good to have it all done. It is by far the largest album I have ever completed. I am not going to lie, I gave myself a big pat on the back after I slid the last page into its protector. Now it’s time to catch up on all my other pictures, oh and don’t even mention my wedding album ;)

Here are the last pages in my Disney album:
