Recipe Swap Revealed

Here is the recipe Swap from Secret Scrapper.. Next month is Soup.. can't wait...

Great job everyone...

Long time No blog.. My Guy not up for Grabs

Well I haven't had time to blog lately lots on the plate... I will have some recipes posted my scanner was not working properly last nite so i will load them as i can today and get them posted I know everyone waiting for them and pictures with these are harder especially when your out of batteries..LOL .. So a story about my husband.. There is a lady that lives in our complex and we have taken her under our wing somewhat but try not to do to much long story with her family history and such.. My hubby has a big heart and always nice to everyone. He trys to check on her once in a while etc.. I notice and told him hey she always call your phone I'd say I'm going to the store do you want me to pick something up or do you want to go.. Oh it's to hot not right now..Then he's late what's up oh do you need anything Patsy asked me to take her to the store.STEAM!!! so I told him what happened.. so he's hasn't had much time lately he's been working far away from home. Well she has this one friend that visits and always chats with us so she has befriended us as well. Yesterday she came to visit hubby just got home 7:00 pm and left at 4:00 a.m. okay long day... for him and says oh come and visit I'm only visiting till a.m. so hubby takes shower I feed him.. We leave he walks thru the door first.. These ladies all start with the Mr Handsome, hey gorgeous and all this stuff I'm standing at the front door still with this grin they have no idea I was behind him somewhat The one lady gets up telling him to give her some love.. I then come around the corner and they about dropped in their tracks start stuttering... say great to see you didn't think you were here (OBVIOUSLY).. I sit in a chair they were having conversation and all trying to get in a word edgewise with hubby etc.. I just sat there with a laughing inside.. He got up from table to play with dog(it's one like we use to have and we call her rent a dog cause she like to visit us she runs away and the owner always knows where to find her another story for another day) Finally after 45 mintues i say I still ahve a few things to do for work so I better get going.. Hubby jumps up and says he's tired and gotta go we are walking home and he starts laughing he says go ahead I says what he says I know that looked bad.. Your right I've been noticing the flirting etc..that's why I haven't been going over there unless your with me etc.. and he just laughed he says I wish you had your camera to scrap that priceless moment when they all seen you walk in the door. I told him it was gonna cost him this weekend he laughed and said it would have cost him anyways.. (*wink*)( I'm going to the Bazzill warehouse sale and Scrap Convention) LOL

LAST FOR THE MONTH FOR ME.. TILL SATURDAY

So I had to alter something for a desk and I bought this back in December ***Gasp*** I know and I had bought this paper and thought I would use it and it sat as well so finally I had a bit of time to take the challenge and completed it .. Feels good .. not sure if I want my chip board in it or what..

Sunday's Scrapping.

I have to get to work. now and a couple loads of luandry and some packing done for the short trip.. So I wish I could scrap more but alas no more.. I will have time tonite to finish my recipe trade and that's it till next Saturday waaaaaaaaaaa

Scrap Happy Saturday

I had a couple challenges for back to school to do DD is gonna be doing an All about me album and I was trying to find some photo's she requested but nope and instead found these so I kill two birds with one stone I got the challenges done and even a couple pages for a Xmas present book i'm doing..so was all and all a productive day.....

FIRST PURPLE LAYOUT

This I would have to say is my first purple layout for some reason it's a really hard color for me to use.. My niece loves it and for xmas I am making her a SecretScrapper 8 x 8 album So here is two pages I did last nite for it.. Xmas is gonna sneak up on me so I better start now cause work gets crazy busy in October / November as does life. We had a challenge to use two things that we haven't used, someone has given to us, die cuts, etc. So this is the first on the ink cracked it open the die cut chipboard had for ages, and I don't use purple this was hard. i also had the rhinestones that someone had given me so i used more than two elements in the layout. was tough.. for me.

Starting Xmas..

Well I have a lot of requests and items to make for gifts so i better get started on them..

I have to make six 8 x 8 books.. LOl. good luck huh.. I will try and keep themt o minimum pages and give xtra set of page protectors \then I can mail them later for birthday or something who knows.. Anyhoo.. Her is a start on one ... I'ts for my daughters bestest friend.. she always ask for something made not bought.. So I ordered her a custom album I will cover it in Hello kitty that's her favorite and begin the proecess.. i have several more to cover.. and get done.. but once I get in the groove.. I have one more challenge I need to get done this weekend then it's starting on the pages for the books... I have to or it will never get done...

ANOTHER CHALLENGE COMPLETE ANGELINA BUTTON CHALLENGE

Well I had a scrappy productive weekend.. I designed my recipe swap for August and cut up the pieces now to assemble.. I got a couple challenges done.. and a couple altered items.. and rolled up some of my ribbon and cleaned out only one cabinet..but it's a start.. This layout is for a challenge that Angelina has posted on her blog I used it as a dual challenge .. Angelina is such a talented scrapper.. Her and Shanna I just absoutely LOVE their work.. Seriously these girls can scrap.. Here is the layout I did for Angelina's button challenge.
