Here is a peek of a little travel journal I'm going to put on Etsy today. I made one for eBay that is a little bigger and with blue and green. This little things are so cute and handy!

furry Valentine.

This year for Valentines Day, hubby was away, so Libby was my furry Valentine. Neal did send me pretty flowers though and my Hyacinth that I planted in an indoor pot started blooming! What a sweet surprise. I love these new Collage Press papers!
This photo goes way back to 2002 when we went to Italy. I used those MM buttons with the great coordinating colors...so pretty and they match my photo. :-)
I hope everyone had a wonderful Valentines day! Bye for now!

re-focus.

I'm not so sure that's a word, but this is my goal lately. I will be selling my stuff less and submitting to magazines more. Changing some other things, too. Like cutting back on sugar. AAaaahhhhhhh! Not sure how I can do this one. It will be a little at a time. I know sugar is bad for you. I know these things in my head, but actually wanting to do something about it and doing something about it... Well, I'm sure you know what I'm talking about.
Let's see, I found some serious eye candy today. CHA 2008 little delectables! Check some out here. So yummy. I am cutting back on sugar and scrap supplies, too though. So, I will be more selective this time around, but I do see some Heidi Swapp stuff that will definitely make it’s way to my house. Anyone else have some CHA photos to share?
Also, I have some layouts that I finished...This first one, I just added some bling to match the other half.




Hope you're having a scap-happy day!

bad blogger.

Yes, I'm guilty of being a bad blogger lately. Sorry about that. Let's see, as promised, I have photos of my daily journal. I'm not doing a page a day because I just don't have time and I didn't want it to become something that I felt obligated to everyday. I just wanted to have a journal that I could write in every day or not. Either way, I am more aware of everything, becuase I'm looking for what would be good, memorable for that day. So, here are a few days...

Here is one of my favorites so far. I just love the quote.
This one is purposly blurred because this is a page about a friend of mine dying in a car crash and is very personal and painful... But, I will share with you one line from it that I just love, "The most valuable time you spend, is with people."
And, today I finished this page up. The photo is one of my favs from Hawaii and I used a 8x10 photo on this page and the Hambly overlay was perfect. YUM!
What else....? I'm all well again. So thanful for that! Gosh, that cold was miserable and I'm so glad it's over!
I've been working a lot more lately. Today, being my only day off from work, I did a little personal scrappin' and some more spring cleaning. Going to have a garage sale soon. Oh! Today was a great mail day! I got my new Making Memories Garden party in the mail and it's way cool! Loving that stuff! I like to shop with Jill here at AMLT, but I think she's out of a lot of the MM stuff. She said she's ordering more though.
Thank God that the storms passed over our house and all is well. A few down tree branches in the neighborhood and that's all. Praying for the folks that lost homes and loved ones.
Okay, back to scrappin'! Talk to you soon!
