Halloween Jenni Bowlin Mini...

I love the size of the Jenni Bowlin chipboard mini books and I knew with the TONS of shots from Halloween, I could use the scallopped mini to make a cute little book that even the kids could browse through and enjoy! I used lots of different vintage book pages, mostly halloween related print, or October themed type. (I got very lucky at a garage sale one day and scored this vintage childrens story book for 365 days a year!) I hope you like!

November kits for Jenni Bowlin!

I received mine in the mail today and I just can't take my eyes or my hands off of the beeeeeauty of it all. See for yourself...










You can still order yours on JENNI BOWLINS RETAIL WEBSITE but according to Jenni on her blog, there are only a few left!

GET OUT AND VOTE TOMORROW!!!! :-)

Creations to share....

The first layout is just a fun one using some Jenni goodies. I honestly can say that I could create with this stuff forever and love every single piece! The last two layouts are from my very last month DT'ing at Treasured Scrapbooking. It is soo bittersweet. I love the site, the kits are magnificent but I am moving on to work with Jenni Bowlin so that's a plus. I know Leslie will come up with a FABULOUS new team that will blow me away. If you are lookin to get into the dt call, GO HERE!

In the books....

Halloween is over, there is candy allllll over this house. Seems like the kids made an absolute haul this year. I saw more and more houses giving out the big candy bars this year and it put HUGE smiles on the kids faces. And the weather was BEAUTIFUL! I can't remember a Halloween where we walked as much as we did without having a vehicle on standby to get warm in or to get out of the rain. Averee and I even wore flip flops! I wish every Halloween could be 70 degrees!

Now for the pictures...







Can't wait for christmas now. I am holding myself back from wanting to start decorating!!

Jenni Bowlin Goodness....

nuff said. I have been creating like mad with some more of my prize winnings and can't keep my hands away! Enjoy!!





And I even created a layout using some of the Basic Grey goodies that Scrapbook Trends sent me for being pubbed. I never ever use BG and this layout turned out quite cute! Or is it just cuz I have the MOST ADORABLE girl in the whold world??


Will be posting some sneakie peaks in the next coupe days of my creations for my LAST month over at Treasured Scrapbooking. Sooo bittersweet but there is a reason that I'm not going for another term. Ya see, I have this lil gig going on starting in November.......
I AM A FULL TIME JENNI BOWLIN GIRL!!!!
Yes I had to reread and retype that twice to make sure I said it right cuz I am STILL in shock. I am soo incredibly humbled and nonored to be working with my ALL TIME FAVORITE designer in this industry. I am the luckiest gal alive right now!!!
So keep your eyes peeld for LOTS OF NEWNESS coming from my blog!!!

WARNING ABOUT FACEBOOK!

It can become quite addictive!! I should have heeded that warning from many a friend that kept talking about it...but I didn't and now I am loving reading ppl's pages, going online and seeing new photos of families that I don't get to see soo often and leaving comments on people's walls. My name is Michelle and I am officially addicted to facebook! I even tried making a badge today and I don't even know what they are used for! I tried to add it here on blogger but it's just not working!! waaah! And it's too late for me to think anymore!

We did get a showing on our house this weekend. Very short notice but I did manage to get the house cleaned and we scattered to other parts of Iowa County for an hour. I am praying to the Lord above that for some miraculous reason, whoever looked at the house wants to buy and pay cash and take possession immediately and we can move before any snow in Iowa flies. A girls' gotta dream!

I will be posting some more creations this week with all the new Jenni goodies I have been playing with! I am loving it! What I am NOT loving is that my computer has Vista on it and for some reason, my scanner and computer will not communicate so I have no way of actually stitching the layouts together. It is driving me COMPLETELY INSANE!!! It has been way too dark and dreary and cloudy and cold and windy for me to go outside and take pics of layouts, so I will have lots to show!

I'm in HEAVEN!!!

Jenni Bowlin product heaven!!!!

I got my goodie box today from the first ever JB Design Team call and I am THRILLED BEYOND WORDS! I had to come back in and edit that I also receieved $500 for winning first prize! All that product got me soooo soooo giddy, the money was just the icing on the product cake! I am truly a devoted scrapper! With that said, I will just have to show pictures!















I'm sorry for such horrible pictures but it is super cloudy, dreary rainy today and no latural light at all. There's no way I could have waited to show off my little slice of heaven from Jenni!
