finally feeling a little settled in our new home, and the scrap desk has found it's new spot, and I got the itch to scrap again, it did help that I had some new goodies I ordered from two peas, some echo park, october afternoon, heidi swapp....plus my friend michelle sent me some heidi swapp hearts stars and flowers!! plus I have so many pics to choose from, including my new grandson ...dawson.

 also did another page in my vintage book journal, another pic of the house......after we got the living room painted...& some stuff on the walls.....

 love these pics of my youngest daughter & my grandaughter taking a bath together, they're so cute!!

scrapbooking in a vintage book

I have been in a rut with scrapbooking lately, now it might have alot to do with us moving, I have been packing, up our house where we have lived for the past almost 11 years by myself, and I have had offers to help, but it was something I wanted to do...but I am tired, and really in no mood to scrap!! but now that the move is almost over, I have been itching, but still feeling un-inspired, I guess, so I decided to change it up a little, I bought an old book from the local, antique/thrift store, and decided to just scrap on the pages themselves, it has been fun, giving me a lil scrap fix!! so here are a couple pages that I finished the other day.....

here is the front of the book, which I really fell in love with!!

I am itching for some new products!!

I want something new an exciting to scrap with so bored of my stash!! also trying to figure out how to make my own version of the "heidi swapp" chipboard heart, I miss them so much and you just can't get them!! but wanted to catch up with my blog for a quick minute, here is a picture of my beautiful grandaughter who turned one on feb 1st! and she is going to become a big sister already on march 12th to a baby brother who is going to be named Dawson!! can't wait My daughters, love getting pics of all of them together, Tonee', Sommer & Aadynn.

guest designer at Wescrap!!

here are just a couple of the layouts I did with the Novemeber kit "recess" from Wescrap , the kit was the most inspirational kit I've worked with in a long time, I hope you will check everything out over at www.wescrap.com I will be over there all month....I will post more layouts soon......sorry they're so small...My computer won't let me load bigger ones..right now..frustrating!! ughhh.... did this one of tonee' on her 22nd bday....

this red one is simple but one of my favs....it didn't scan great cause of all the yummy buttons and stuff...I shouldve took a pic...

polka dots!!! gotta love the polka dots!!!

the alphas in the kit were like a blue jean color...and then the block ones were kinda like a mustard....perfect!!

Somerset Memories Toot!! X 4

such a fun halloween this year....On halloween night, me and the girls went to my childhood neighborhood to trick or treat!! me,aadynn,sommer,payton & tonee" before trick or treating sommer and aadynn carved pumpkins!! Aadynn just wanted to eat the pumpkins!!
On sunday me and eric took the girls to a trunk or treat event in toledo, ohio, took this pic of syerra, aadynn & me...before it started.

and on saturday night, me sommer & Aadynn went to a trunk or treat in ypsilanti...we were all kittys...LOL

here is me and eric waiting on syerra to get out of the moonbounce, which she quickly did after the lil boy next to her threw up!!

was so thrilled to get a request from somerset memories for 4 of my layouts...I just started submitting again last month.....after being out of the publishing game...for a long time....so this request has really inspired me to start submitting again.....it was always such a high to see my layouts in a magazine....such an honor...I love it!!

My lil' pumpkins

wanted to get a few fall pics of the girls outside yesterday.....and even though my daughter lil miss Aadynn wasn't feeling to up to it...she still looks cute even if she wasn't going to give me a smile..lol those beautiful brown eyes.....and yes she is still in her jammies....ha,ha!! ohhh well...
