hump day scrapping

I made these for the kids as an after school treat today! they are from Bakerella blog. i used a mix of 50-50 wheat and white flour.


here is my LEO #5, i used the 5/9/09 sketch for this one, from NutsAboutSketches

i picked up this stencil pack on the $1 section at Target this past weekend.


embossing for dummies...
I used the not very sharp pencil on the back of the cor'dinations cardstock.
then i flipped it over and sanded gently.


here is a sketch from paper popsicles. I got ink on the bears belly so i had to disguise it with stickles.
the happy stamp is 1/2 of a happy birthday stamp from cosmo cricket. i cut the stamp in half so that it would be more user friendly and maybe get used more often??? lol


tfl

scrapping 2 cuties!!!

i just love these pics!! i did this page for the leo on wt!

sunday fun-day leo #3

here is mt leo #3. we had to recycle something or use something nsbr on our page. i saved this bit of fabric from an old pair of dh's undies, lol i knew i would use it one day!!

i was inspired by Survivor Week 6 by Patti H from tally scrapper. this is my lift of her page for a new tally challenge!

keeping busy

first i finished the hand drawn sketch challenge from paperpopsicles. for some reason i kept forgetting to glue the journaling down lol


yesterday i made the cupcakes for alexas summer party! then last minute we decided we needed goody bags. of course i can't leave well enough alone, so i made tags for them this am! doesn't everyone do that at 6am???

i scrapped a couple pages yesterday, but can't share them just yet ;) just can't spill the beans yet

new spot

so my spot has been moved! little mr gavin is all over the place, and it was safer and easier just to move my scrappy stuff out of the living room for a while. it was a nice change to scrap somewhere else.

this was another nuts about sketches sketch.

Page #2 8/15

i love these pics of gavin. he just has to hear these keys and he gets a huge smile!

i used week 68 from nutsaboutsketches for this one!
