I'm In the Mood!!!!......For Scrapbooking.....



I Love the "kayliegh" layout! I did not stamping...
just Elements!
and The Family page is so the reason that I love
my Cricut!!!! I am not a "journaler"
but at least need to put a title , and the date the
pictures were taken.
I so love this paper, will have to stock up, cuz it is retiring
from ctmh this year! ( let's get together)

topiary, yellow and ocean, used the ctmh pop out
die cuts, felt shapes are hero arts, stamped images

very springy colors ( these were taken in the spring)

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!



It was a beautiful Mothers Day!
we had a great Steak dinner, played
some games, spent time together.
The buds on the tree's are so
pretty right now!


My photo
I have a great passion for creating, and have been stamping and scrapbooking for over 15 years now! I absolutely love handmaking things and haven taken over an entire room in our basement as a"craft room".

I have been married to my wonderful husband Kurt for 23 years, and have three daughters ages 21, 19, and 15. We love animals and have two dogs and several horses.
I also enjoy hairstyling and run my own hair salon.
