That's a LOT of projects for one week!


Talk about overwhelming! what did I get myself into??? LOL...no really.....I work sooo much better and more efficiently under pressure! I loooooove it! Finished my lo for Week 6 challenge at Scraplove.com. Loooovin the results. Had to use a phrase that we are known for...and of course I am constantly telling my son to stop something that he is doing...he is a boy...he is crazy!
Thanksgiving is right around the corner and so is Black Friday! Taking Averee this year will certainly be an adventure but it is a tradition that I can't wait to get started with my girls!!

How could I foget to blog about this???


My online bestest friend Tracey reminded me that I have not yet tooted my own horn here!!! I got a lo picked up by BlueMedia for their new idea book!!! FIRST TIME BEING PUBLISHED and I am sooooo thrilled! Just thinking of that is getting me out of my funk I seem to be in lately! Book comes out in Spring 2007 and I can hardly wait!!!

this layout I did for a freestyle challenge at ScrapnCircle.com where I am DT coordinator....loving the look of the pics even tho none of the fam will ever look at me and smile at the same time....this shows truly what my fam is like!!

And most importantly today is Jason's 32nd birthday!!!! He is such a great dad and the kids worship the ground he walks upon!!

Gotta take a breather....


WoW.....could it get any crazier around here?
I doubt it....
I am in an awesome "survivor" type contest over at ScrapLove...
Called So You Think You Can Scrap?
peeps get voted off every week by their peers...
I made it so far to round #3 and am soooo stoked to do this week's challenge
Have to use the word KnoCk in your title!
Interesting and yet ooh soo challenging!
Halloween coming up very soon....
And that means Christmas is just around the corner!!!
No other scrappy news to mention!

I have a lot of catching up to do.....



Much to do
So Little time
Laundry's piling up
Soccer clothes are dirty
Need to do some grocery shopping
Scrapping is taking precedence
Does this ever happen to you??

Tried to submit this layout

Nothing heard back

I am almost ready to not submit

Guess if you submit just one and dont receive an offer, you should not give up.

I dont submit....I just dont.

I wish I could.

I hate to wait.

I would love to see my work published!

SOMEDAY MY FRIENDS, SOMEDAY!!!

It just gets busier every day!


I am able now to officially announce that I am the Guest Designer for The Scrapbook Star for the month of August. They sent me an ultra kool kit and I made a gret layout of my baby girl in her tiara! Love that website!! It rocks!! Everything is starting to get really busy right now in the scrapping world. I have a lot to get caught up on and I am going for the effers dares in August.....but there are like 450 women in it and I probably don't stand a chance, but I have to have to try!!! Loving the idea of dares and of course love the idea of competition!!!

Can't wait to go shopping this weekend to get some school clothes for my three year old girl....LOVE THE DRESSES!!! She will of course go and help!
