Together is the Best Place to Be

Good Morning Everyone! I am so excited to share that today I'm the guest designer at Colorful Creations. The sketch was so much fun to work with. I decided to use the Echo Park "This & That" collection, but with a twist. I've used it for boy layouts, but today, it's all about the girls (well..and baby Jax who is a boy, lol). I just found the colors of the collection went with the photo of Nicole playing with the puppies in the sprinkler on Mother's Day. There is nothing like having two soaken wet goldendoodle puppies jumping on you on a hot day, lol. I hope you can stop by and join in the sketch challenge. Thanks again Colorful Creations for the wonderful opportunity!


Thanks so much for stopping by. I love reading your comments and I appreciate your scrappy support! Have a wonderfully happy scrappy day! Lynn

Love is a Battlefield

When I was a teenager I remember pretending I was in a rock band singing in my parents basement to Pat Benatar. Wild and crazy I know! When I saw workout challenge #60 at Scrap Fit I was hooked. Now I needed a sketch...hmmm. At Colorful Creations they had this awesome sketch. Ok...now the fun part. I needed corrugated cardboard. I go running into the bonus room where the boys are watching a hockey game...I yell "do we have any cardboard". My husband answers..".yup out in the recycle bin but it's raining". Yeah, you think that is going to stop me? A little rain for something I need to do a layout. I run outside, grab the stack, come back in and ask them to rip it for me. They think I'm crazy at this point. Am I? Ok maybe a little...but it's all for the love of scrappin! You all get me right? So I end the evening drinking a mint chocolate latte singing....We are young..   Heartache to heartache we stand..  No promises, no demands...
Love is a battlefield.

Remember This

Fall is one of my favourite seasons to scrap. This was the first Thanksgiving we spent without Chris and Nicole. We did have the weekend with them in Calgary, but it wasn't the same to go to Baba's without them. I guess I'm still getting use to what my friends call "the new normal". This layout was for a sketch at Colorful Creations, a site I just joined. The ladies there were so welcoming. So yesterday, out came the Bo Bunny and away I went. The word "remember" is on the edge of the circle ( that is part of the challenge). Those presents are still unwrapped...but today is a new day right? lol.

Yeah!!! I just found out I won the challenge! Thanks so much, I can't wait to see my prize.
