Labor Day Love

Welcome September!
 My first finished project for Momenta!
 Creative Canvas

 I am not sure where the month went, I spent a week In Chicago visiting  my parents, attended Scrapbook Expo in St. Charles, took a few Copic classes!
 I had a blast did not know a soul buy it was FUN!
 So  if you ever are in doubt about attending a class JUST DO IT!
 I am sharing a canvas I used from Momenta, when I saw it I knew exactly what I would do with it, I snagged this photo off my brother's facebook a few months ago,(he knows so its ok- I love how we can save and print later)
 He was married in Hawaii about a year ago this is a great picture of them on the staircase!

           This kit from Momenta it is a Creative Canvas Kit, I love that it is Black so great for B&W,
                       You can find more info at
                         www.facebook.com/mymomenta
                                        the website   is www.momenta.com
Hopefully I am better from my little knee accident and will be climbing the stairs a few more times to finish up some layouts! I have been coloring and trying to get all my stamps and color combinations in order, sounds like a crafter always trying to get organized a little better!
Thanks for stopping by again.

My life is a ZOO

Here is my first attempt at scrapbooking in months...  I used the animal pattern assortment and the black alpha set from Momenta. This is my first layout for Momenta  in a while.


 I have been so busy with life feels good to play in the scraproom room!

  We bought a Zoo pass to the Birmingham Zoo , Emma has gone about four times this summer, sadly I only went once - it is just too HOT for this Grams, I will enjoy it this fall!

Thanks for Stopping in!
I have a crafty weekend planned, actually going to The Scrap Book Princess Flip -Flop Crop!

 I'm Back!
Hoping to start getting back to crafting and blogging again, and of course I am looking for a job these days-
 I have to find something to do at least part time.
 Gary is doing great after his surgery last week, he had a partial Kidney removal last Tuesday,  Kidney Cancer is why they did it - they found 2 spots a few months ago when he had his gallbladder removed  durning a CT scan -  it is the only way Kidney cancer is found early through a test  for another problem --so far everything is looking good!

I received some Crafty mail from a few people last week - was so excited to see some crafty mail!  

The Top one is from my friend Judy Hardwick!  It was adressed Pay it Forward.... I have a person on my list for mine .... hoping to do a good deed this week!

                               The second is from Donna Salzaar , I won it from her Tuesday evening classes online!
So I hope the summer is treating you great! It is HOT here , and raining every afternoon so my flowers are happy!
Watch for a Momenta Post this week!

Thanks for stopping by!

A clean desk?

Its been a long time since I posted! I have a clean desk (not for long) , started loading my scraprack!
  I think I am finally unpacked since closing Scrapin Kats!
I have sorted and labeled all my paper boxes, purged about 1/2 of my paper stash!
I am excited to start scrapping again!

Its been a crazy few months here-- but July is here already! And it is SO HOT!
the last week the fires in Colorado have been scary for our friends there-  the area our house is in was evacuated as a precaution but as of today all calm there,
 I am happy to say we are in Alabama during all this!

So hopefully we will get through the next few weeks and be able to move forward again!

Well Hello Everyone!
I am back - it has been a while since I posted, lots of things happening!
I went to help my parents move and ended up there 10 days instead of the 4 I planned! Dad was in hospital so I stayed and helped them get unpacked and settled in new place! I love being able to to drop whatever and go!
We are still seeing Doctors for Gary's upcoming surgery.. all plans for summer are on hold.
I have had Emma duty all week- her dad had arm surgery so they have been out of sorts,  her mom's weekend to work so I just promised a trip to Zoo on Saturday!
I have made progress in my scraproom - only to decide to move my Ikea shelf back and ordered a desk to attach to it.
Just recieved my big box of Momenta for the quarter layouts , lots of great embellishments- so I promise to get busy!

Another Momenta Layout

Its April and pretty soon we'll be seeing graduation plans, I found this picture of my son the other day sorting, I feel so bad he graduated FOUR years ago , and sadly I have not done any thing with his pictures.
 This is from the Graduation kit from Momenta --
I used a 12x12 piece of white cardstock,
I trimmed the star paper 11x11,
Cut a piece of the word paper 4x12
Cut a 1x12 piece of cardstock for his name , added a few of the chipboard embelliments that are in the kit! I think it came together so easy! Everything was in this kit except the cardstock.
I love kits everything you need- all matching! It just makes it easy to scrapbook! I hope to use the rest of this kit for a few more pages for his book. 
My picture looks so good - I have been practicing with my camera and reading about how to use it and editing photos lately.
Thanks for visiting!
