Busy bee...

I've not had much time to scrap (until today...thanks to my VERY patient husband who has tolerated me being on the laptop all evening!) So I will post some layouts asap.

I need to do some CT layouts, but I've been kind of "blocked" so I've been using templates (I know that's fine, but I can't help but feel like it's "cheating" if I don't make the LO from scratch!)

Anyway, I'll be back soon to post some LOs... just didn't want anyone to think I'd disappeared! :)

Happy Digital Scrapbooking Day!

Well, Marley is "famous" yet again! :) Check out my layout with my little queen and be sure to snag the QP download here. I enjoyed making it and hope you like it too!

***UPDATE- OK, since I'm just a scrapper and not a designer, I'm not used to people DLing and commenting on my stuff. The QP freebie I made for my fabulous designer Princess Pamela at Digitreats, just hit 1,400 DLs! I am so excited!!! "They like it...they really, really like it!" (Yes I'm a dork! LOL!)

Halloween!

We had Jaxon's "best buddy" Joshua come over to trick or treat with us this year and the boys were SO excited!!! They had already been in costume earlier in the day at school, but it was still really exciting for them. I don't think I've ever seen Jaxon that wound up! :) We were waiting for a pizza to arrive and then decided to go ahead and get started. Brian and Marley stayed behind to hand out candy and wait for the pizza while we headed down the street. Then we got the cell phone call that the pizza had arrived, came home, refueled with pizza, and then we all went back out for round 2. We didn't get far before Joshua had to use the bathroom, so we headed back to the house and called it a night. Even though we didn't hit as many houses as we'd hoped, we all had a great time! Here's one LO of the boys on the run... more to come soon.

I finally did it...

I always try so hard to scrap original pages and even feel guilty when I use a template...and yes, I know that is exactly what templates are for... but it still almost feels like cheating!

Ok here's the deal: I rarely appear in pictures as I'm usually the one taking them, and I've had some people ask to see the new haircolor. So I thought I'd try to quickly scrap the one recent pic of me (of course we're at a costume party, so You can't see much of the hair, but you'll get the idea).

So... I scraplifted!!!! I think that as long as I give her credit, I'm "ok" though. The original layout I lifted this idea is here and by KirstieGai- on the Peppermintcreative.com design team gallery.
