2014 Title page and Baby Blues

I'm enjoying some temps in the 80's here in San Diego! I'm determined to NOT turn on the AC! LOL! The breeze feels nice.

I finally got inspired to create my title page for my 2014 album, and I really like the way it turned out. I still am in February scrapbooking Hawaii, however, so don't get too excited. Then, there are the hundreds of photos that I took in Yellowstone and the Grand Tetons this fall. I do have a pretty good organized system worked out though. I will share soon because I have to take photos. A blog post without photos is not a blog post at all, right?!

Okay, here's my 2014 title page:

And here is what I've made for Etsy... "Can't Resist Those Baby Blues"
 

 Hope everyone is having a wonderful weekend!

Title page and other goodies

Well, in between visiting family while we are in Calif., I have been doing a little scrapping'! Yay! Tomorrow, I am going to the Monterey area to visit a friend that I haven't seen since she only had 3 kids (she now has 5). Can't wait!
So, here's a title page I did for the first page of my Hawaii trip. I wanted to use this cool map but it took up most of the page. So, a little journaling on this one but the next few pages have more journaling.

Then, I made a few sets that I'm going to sell on eBay this week. Here's a peek of two Fall themed sets for Project Life pages or cards or whatever!

 And lastly, I made a one-page layout to see on eBay. More coming soon!

Creative Catch Up!

Woah! Okay, it's been so long since I've posted, I forgot my password! LOL!
My hubby and I and our four-legged, fur-face have headed off to a new adventure. We are full-timing in our 32' 5th wheel! Of course, I have to have room to scrapbook and do crafts, so we took out the love seat and put in a desk of sorts. :-) You can see more on our adventures at nealandglynda.blogspot.com, if you like.

For now, I need to catch up and add some layouts! Hang on, here we go!

Enjoying the Project Life sheet protectors for my vacation photos! 

I have been taking a few panorama pics with my iPhone, but having trouble finding a place that will print them. I printed this one at home. Anyone have any ideas where to get them printed? 

Simple one here… Just wanted to focus on the beauty of the sea.

I have also started making jewelry again! Yay! You get the first peek here! I will add the pieces to my shop later today. :-)

Cute, Fall bracelet

These earrings are all sterling silver, freshwater pearls and very cute for everyday!
Okay, better get back to work! Have a great day!

Long time, no scrap!

Well, I have been going through my scrapbook room, getting rid of stuff lately. We had a big flooring project going on upstairs where we got new carpet in the bedrooms and installed our own hardwood floors in the family room. So, with everything out of the scrap room/office, I thought it was a good opportunity to clean it out. Pictures will be coming soon. :-)

In the mean time, I have started scrapping some of my Cancun pics from this year. I was a bad scrapbooker and didn't write anything down while we were on vacation, so I'm trying to get it all down now. Haha! I also have been using some "cheat-protectors". You know, the divided Project life ones for my vacation photos since I have so many photos I cannot bear for them not to be scrapbooked! Pics of that coming soon....

Here are a couple that I haven't posted yet:

Hope you're having a wonderful summer so far!

Sneak Peek & Another layout

Happy Saturday!
So glad to have a weekend break from work. I started a cute travel album/journal that I plan on listing on Etsy soon. Here are some peekies. :-)

I also finished another Colorado layout. Yea! I took SOOO many photos I just need to a.) put lots of photos in each layout and b.) only choose the best photos. I will do it! haha!
Have a wonderful weekend!!!
xoxoxo, Glynda

Two-Pager!

I seldom do 2-page layouts anymore, but I have SOOOO many photos from our trip to Colorado two years ago to still scrap, that I need to get as many as possible on my pages. It's just the way it is! As much as I LOVE 1 photo, 1 page layouts, it's just not practical for the whole album to be that way. So...
Hope you're having a great week! xoxo - Glynda

Another layout...

I'm on a roll lately, scrapbooking! Maybe because it's cold out now (okay Monday it was 81 degrees, but today it's cold). Anyway, just thought I'd share!
The pics were taken with a camera phone that was not so good. But, when it's the only thing you have at the time, I would rather document the "bad" pictures than not document a moment at all. What do you think? Bad pics vs. only great pics in the scrapbook album?
Happy Thursday!
xoxoxoxo, Glynda

More Va-Ca pics

On Wednesday, we went to the wildlife sanctuary on the island to see all of the cool birds. This guy (the Reddish Egret) was so cool. He caught is fish by flapping his wings and dancing around. I guess this confuses the fish so they don't know which way to go. He was entertaining!

The White Ibis (I think a juvenile since he wasn't all white yet).

I wish this pic would have turned out better, but this is the very pretty White IbisI believe these were pin fish or pencil fish. Brace yourself, here come the beautiful Roseate Spoonbills!

More coming! :-) Happy Tuesday!

Saturday Scrappin'

Finally! I got to scrap a little bit today! Yea! I'm working on pics from our Colorado trip we took last year... Hope you get to be creative today too!

Home again.

Happy New Year! I hope everyone had a lovely Christmas and is having a wonderful New Year so far.

Just got back from a trip to Cali to visit family. What a nice trip and oh how I miss Cali. Right before we left on our trip, we moved, so I came home to boxes all over the place. Well, mostly in my office and other random places. The essentials were unpacked, so that was good. Hopefully, I can get the scraproom/office organized and unpacked soon to start creating again! It seems like it's been forever!

Here are some pics from Christmas...

At the Capitol in Sacramento
Me and my mom
Me and my siblings
Mt. Lassen
Burney Falls

It was a busy trip with lots of travel, so it's nice to be home and relax... NOT! Time to finish unpacking and painting! Now, where did I put those elves?

Where, oh where?

Well, we took a little road trip... to where? Camping, exploring, hiking, biking, fishing... If you can figure out where we went, you will be entered into a drawing for a FREE box of scrapbook stuff!!! I will pick a winner next Thursday Sept. 9th. You don't have to be too specific, but the closer you are the better your chances! :-)

Leave a comment on this post letting me know where you think we went (at least the state) and telling me what you did fun over this summer.
(Hint: it took us 2 days to drive there.)









I took tons of pictures and narrowed it down to these! LOL! Happy guessing. :-)
