I Know I'm Not Perfect

It's Thursday so it's time to sing along with the design team at Scrap It With A Song. Today we are singing "Every Girl Like Me" by Sugarland. This is actually a song that I suggested, so I was excited that it was chosen. I took a few lines from the song for my title "I know I'm not perfect, but I know I'm worth it". Now I could be talking about myself, or...I could be talking about those two fuzzy little things by my side. I guess we all aren't perfect, but it's so worth it! So I hope you can swing by and play along. I'm getting addicted to the sketches at ScrapFriends, so once again I used one of the sketches for inspiration.

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

Promises

It's Thursday friends, so that means it's time to sing along at Scrap It With A Song. Our song this week is "American Girl" by Tom Petty. Well..I'm Canadian, so I thought this was going to be a tough challenge until I read the lyrics. They were so fitting for a layout of my daughter Nicole.

My journaling reads (from the song)

" Raised on Promises, 

She couldn't help thinkin'

That there was a little more to life somewhere else

After all is was a great big world"

She is one brave young woman. She packed up and moved to a different city to follow her dreams. I'm a home body, so she is my inspiration to try and do new things. She is an amazing young woman. I stopped by ScrapFriends blog and of course there was the perfect sketch to follow for my layout, so this just came together nicely. So..stop by, get your singing voices ready and come play along at Scrap It With A Song!

Life is Better with Friends

Today our theme at Practical Scrappers is "stitching on your layout". I'm a huge fan of sewing, so this was perfect for me. I'm really trying to use up my stash and with this Echo Park line, I have the whole collection, so it was an easy choice what to use. It's perfect for boy layouts. This is Noah playing with Daisy and Jax on Mothers Day. The puppies just follow him around everywhere. They are quite the little threesome. That's why...Life is Better with Friends, even if they are puppies! I used a sketch from a new site I found called ScrapFriends for some inspiration. Hope everyone is having an awesome scrappy day!
