Book of Me . . .

Here are a couple of the lo's I have been working on for Project 52 - Book of Me! There is hidden journaling on each one!!!! I have completed 7 of the 8 weeks so far! Will add my other 2 when I can get some good pics! Too much snow on the ground right now!


"Life Verse" is my favorite verse in the Bible. When we drew this topic, I debated and debated and searched and searched for what I was going to use. I have so many verses that will pop into my head at certain times, just when I need them! When I turned to this verse, and I had written in the margin of my Bible "Life Verse", I knew I had not only the scripture but also my title!


"I was Made 2 Love U" is my love story! This was the first time I used my gypsy!! I designed the title/heart while in the waiting room of the doctor's office!


My sb.com friends! Jennie (Virginia), Jenni (Indiana), myself and Clara (Texas)! When Jennie and Clara came to visit me, we were able to get together at my fave sb store - Archivers - where this pic was taken!!! This is for my . . . . fave sb store!


"Champions" is for my favorite sport played or fan! I am a big Yankees fan! We went to Yankee stadium for the last year of the old stadium to go on a Stadium Tour and catch a game! This is my nephew Tucker, my oldest son Payton, myself and hubby!



"Window Seat" was done both for a sketch challenge and for P52! This is for the view from my window. This pic was taken after some freshly fallen snow. It was taken from what should be my window seat filled with pillows, but instead is filled with toys!

Hope you enjoyed! Thanks for stopping by!!

Love, Heather

Here I am . . .

I haven't disappeared off the face of the earth! Seriously! I am alive and doing well!!! Not that you could tell from looking at my blog since I haven't posted since October! Shame on me! Not a lot new! We made it through the holidays and have had some wonderful time with friends and family!

Went to a weekend crop at the end of January! Had a great time with 25 other women (mom and one of my BFF included) scrapping the weekend away! Started a lot of work on my Project 52 Book of Me! I am really happy with the topics that Debbie and I came up with. They have been fun to scrap! This is my first attempt at doing an 8x8 album and I am finding it harder then I thought! However, I kinda like it!!!

Want to see a few lo's I have done recently? Yes! Oh good, I was hoping you would say that! Done both of these for a monthly sketch challenge on sb.com!


On "Twisted" had to use something that you wouldn't normally find on a lo or in scrappy room! I used bread twist ties! I sanded them and then glimmer misted them before twisting them around the hearts!


A fun time at the Block Party at our church this past September! Finally got to scrapping them and I loved the bold primary colors!

Have some fun scrappy stuff coming up! My friend Debbie is coming from Washington at the end of March (34 more days) to visit and scrapbook! This will be the first time we have met IRL! I am so excited!!!

In May I am planning a trip to Texas to spend a weekend scrapbooking with Clara and Jennie! We will be celebrating National Scrapbook Day (May 1st I believe)!

Thanks to all who stop by and check out my blog! Will hopefully have some more exciting news for you soon!

Love, Heather

Let's Add 1 More!!!!!!!!!!!!

This lo is one I done for a sketch challenge this week! I just love these colors and really enjoyed this sketch! Hope you like it too!


Another scrappy day!!

It's Saturday!!!! I love Saturday's!! It's noon and I am still sitting around in my pj's! I LOVE that!! Of course, I was up till 2:30 am scrapping! But that doesn't stop the boys from waking me up at 7:30am!!! Who needs sleep when there is scrapping to do???

Did a virtual crop last night with "my girls"! Of course we do it every Friday night so last night was really no different!!! However, last night was challenge night! We were challenging each other so that we stayed motivated and got lots accomplished!! I got 2 lo's completed, 1-2page lo, and 1 card! They challenged me to get a lo done in 1 1/2 hours - starting from scratch!!! I finished on time!! Ready to see???

"God Knows" is a lo of my sb.com friends Clara and Jennie that came to visit me this past summer!!! This was the lo that I completed in 1 1/2 hours - with even a few minutes to spare! I used Sketch #72 from Creative Scrappers blog! (they have amazing sketches and amazing designers!) Check them out!

It's a cold, windy fall day!

I love FALL!!! I love putting on comfy clothes and a large sweatshirt!!! Well, I think fall is here!! Cold, windy and yet love the fresh air!!!

Well, here are the card and lo that I got done this weekend!! Hoping to get more done here in a bit but thought I would upload here since I was updating on a challenge!!!




Happy Scrappy Day!!

2009 Goals! WOOHOO!!!

My goal for 2009 was to complete 180 layouts!! Sounds like a lot you say? That is because for me, that IS a lot! But I just realized the other day that I have completed 165 of the 180 lo's!!! And it is just now October! With all the challenges that I am in for October, I should come up just short (2 lo's) of my goal by the end of the month!

So what is a scrapper to do?? Change the goal of course!!! So, as soon as I hit my goal, I am changing my goal! My new goal is 200 lo's for 2009! Bring it on!!!!!!

I also had a challenge goal. I slammed right past that goal months ago. I had never done an online challenge until 2009 and now I am completing 6 or 7 a month!!! My goal for the year was 6 or 8 - don't even remember!!

I did not set a card goal but have completed lots of them!! Talk about a savings from not going to the Hallmark store!!!!

Hope you are having a scrappy weekend!
