MIA

Must make this short but sweet.  Unfortunately, I will not be posting any projects for the rest of the week.  My son was out riding his dirt bike Monday and broke his collar bone so needless to say I have been playing and will be playing nurse for the next 6 weeks or so.  Thank godness things were not worst but it is not fun to see your kids suffer in pain:(  He has an appointment to see the orthopedic surgeon next Monday so we will have to wait and see how that goes.  Please wish him a speedy recovery!!

Puppy Love

Hello everyone!  I hope you all enjoyed your Easter holiday.  As the new week begins that only means one thing the release of the new E2!!  I wonder if you are all excited as much as I am?  I am not sure that I will be staying up until midnight, yah right but I will be checking first thing in the morning.

Today I have another layout for you.  Again, it is from the the Ninabrooks kits that I have mentioned before.  I can't say enough about them.  They make things so easy for you.

Enjoy the rest of your Monday!

Ninabrooks Layout

I am so excited to share with the rest of you these amazing scrapbooking kits that I purchase.  Generally there is a group of us girls that spend the morning crafting using these kits.  You get all the supplies needed to create either a 2 page layout or 4 and you get all the instructions and pictures to go with it and at the most reasonable prices ever.  I believe they come out with new kits quarterly so be sure to head over and check them out http://ninabrookdesigns.com/ and don't be surprised if you don't see these on my blog more often.

Scrapbook Room Tour!

Happy Monday!  I hope you all enjoyed your weekend as did I.  The weather here is finally starting to let up and the snow is starting to melt!!  Today is a big day for Nala as she starts puppy school tonight and today is also my brother's birthday so I must give a shout out to him.  HAPPY BIRTHDAY BLAKE!!

On to the good stuff!  I think I have finally organized my scrap space since moving into my new home. It's a small space but is it cozy and it works.  The only thing I wish I had was a window, good thing for good light bulbs!  I hope you all enjoy!

Enjoy the rest of your day and I will see you back here tomorrow with a project!

Happy Camper

Happy Friday!  I can't believe that the weekend is already here.  I have had one busy work week I tell yah.  Anyway today's layout I must admit I totally cased the new campin critter cartridge handbook, shame one me but it was just so cute!! This cartridge is going to be alot of fun and the layers are pretty reasonable to put together.

Enjoy and have a great weekend!

French Memo Board

So when I was doing some cleaning up in my craft room I found a couple of canvases and my first thought was to get rid of them.  Well I am happy to announce that I didn't get rid of them and I put them to good use.  With a few buttons, ribbon and some material I made not 1 but 2 french memo boards.  They are by no means perfect and not very big but they filled a spot on my wall that needed a little something.  Problem is I don't have too many cards from my fellow crafters to display them :( 

Let me know what you think and would love to hear how and where you display your crafty things.

Until Tomorrow,
Wendy
