Live, love, laugh, bark... 2013

It's been one whole year since I blogged last, I love reading blogs and for a time in my life I loved blogging and sharing my life and love of scrapbooking. This year I have decided to participate in Prima's BAP & PPP; in the past year I have finally found my scrapbook style.  I love all things layered and collaged.  I like girly grunge and destresing my pages and projects.  The other day while working on Valentines Day cards and decorations for the house, I realized I enjoy getting lost in my world of paper.  It's so relaxing and I'm really good at it.  

Here's Prima's January BAP &PPP... Let's see what I come up with.  The last pictures is a little piece of my life!

Hello 2012

Its been a 366 days since my last blog and I have missed it... 2011 was made up of work and more work, I found I will never be perfect and I will never be caught up. I have missed so much in my personal life for work... I cleaned out my scrap space and i am in the process of organizing my house to keep it clean. Mr. B and I have agreed on who will do what ... With four dogs and a 21 year old it's been a crazy life. Mr. B will be having survey this month and I have to make my family priority.
Happy New Year 2012!
Photos and projects to come

Tag Tuesday... Christmas Leftovers

I have been working a lot these last few months and it's been hard to do what I enjoy so much; play with paper!!! I love "Tag Tuesday" challenges and I figured I would get back to them each week for the next 52 weeks. (2011 goal) This week's challenge is to use Christmas leftovers; paper, ribbon, etc..

I often save ribbon and cute Christmas decorations from gifts. This is what I pulled form my stash and attempted to use.

Here is my tag, I love it!!! It feels good to be back... Happy New Year!!!

Mr. Kingstone... Harry would have loved you!

Mr. Kingston has been a handful and yet Mr. Harry would have loved you!

Goodbye 2010 and Hello 2011

I leave 2010 with beautiful memories (both happy and sad) and I welcome all the memories of 2011!!!

Happy Birthday Mr. Bletzer...

It has been a long time, I have been really busy with lots of projects... a special Happy Birthday to Mr. Bletzer who has been a doll and I am so glad he was born! I have finished up a few more G45 projects...

I bought this clothes pin kit from The Jule Box and I made two with another small clothes pin I had; I love the was they both came out. I have a new obsession for the G45 Domestic Goddess Paper; hence my June Cleaver week.




Here is the Halloween Tag, I made for a swap I am participating in at The Scrap Beach. I made ten of these beauties. I am very happy with the end result, I am not a big Halloween person, this was all inspired by my trip to Salem, MA... the witch is a vintage image I got off the Internet.

Finally, Lady Dei has been wanting a jewelry box and I altered this box I had laying around with my very favorite G45 Halloween In Wonderland ... this line is awesome! Her box came out really cute and I made my own flowers using a tutorial from Jaded Studios, she has some awesome YT tutorials, not only is she awesome but she is a DT member for G45!!!



Well that all I have, I look forward to a fantastic week with NO DRAMA!!!

Tuesday Tag Challenge...Butterflies!!

I have been looking forward to this weekend for some time... I knew I would be creating and doing laundry!!! I'm an operations manager for a candle company in California and spend a lot of my time at work; since I live a full 7 minutes away. When I get home all I want to do is play... I don't sleep every well, so I watch Youtube and Ustream... those ladies are my inspiration. I have also been inspired by friend of mine such as Joanne, Toni, and Shawn to create what ever I want.. no class, no displays... all for me.
For Tag Tuesday Challenge; the theme was butterflies! I love my little tag, I always start out with one thing and add, add, and add... until I run out of room. I'm a believer in ... "more is best"!
