Been Busy . . . .

Well, I really have been busy! Payton started school at Eastbrook Junior High last week. The boys start kindergarden this week! My babies - waaaaa! Besides working, Vacation Bible School, the running of 4 kids, ZUMBA, playing scrabble, jamming to my ipod and a new dog . . . welcome Roxie . . . life continues to be chaotic! Love it though.

But, yes, even in my scrap room I have been busy!! Here are just a few cards and layouts that have been keeping me busy from the cyber crop over at Tallyscrapper.com!! Have enjoyed all the challenges as it has really got my mojo flowing! haha!

Much more to share of the work I have been doing but I will leave you with these for today! Hoping to get one more layout done before going to Zumba tonight!!!!

A sketch for fun . . .

When I have a few free minutes and can't get to my scraproom, I sketch! I draw the lo's that are in my head! I then start to think of the papers and pics that would go with it. This way, when I do get to my scraproom, I am ready to get started and can hopefully crank out a few lo's in a short amount of time!

So, have a little fun and see what you can do with this sketch! Please leave me a link to your layout if you do use it! I would love to see what you create!

Tomorrow is Friday!!! Hope you are able to get some scrappy time this weekend!! I sure plan to! ~ Heather

Friends make our hearts sing!

On my layout "Friends make your heart SING", the music notes were a touch that I just had to have. Though I may not be musical, my friend Shelly is the praise team leader at our church. I loved how the distressing and masking and layering turned out. If you look close, you may even see some hidden music notes that I cut using the cricut and placed inside.

Here's the story: Shelly and I were 2 years apart at the same small Christian university, lived in the same dorm and never knew each other while we were there. It wasn't until many years later when Shane and I started attending the church we currently go to that we met Assistant Pastor Jim and his wife, the Praise Team Leader, Shelly that we discovered our alike past! Shane now plays guitar with the Praise Team.

She is such an amazing friend to me now that I only wish that we would have met back in the college days so we could have had an additional 14 years of friendship . . . but God's plans aren't ours and He chose when to bring us together!


Been hanging out over at www.tallyscrapper.com quite a bit! Even purchased their June kit! Received it today and I am in love!!! Great kit - lots of Jenni Bowlin (which makes me very happy!) and Studio Calico! Can't wait to get busy scrapping with the kit!

And some other news . . . the DT over at www.ifitsgroovy.blogspot.com has been very busy producing lots of projects using Raisin Boat stamps, a fantastic sponsor!! Be sure to check out the blog for an interview today and lots of new projects by the DT debuting tomorrow!!

Till later, Heather
