Change. And Happy NSD!


So if you have been involved with Scrapbook Challenges at all, then you know by now that I am handing it all over to Brynn. She will do a wonderful job with it...I am actually excited to see what she does. I couldn't put it all in more capable hands.

This weekend they are doing some fun and fabulous NSD challenges and games. But what has really touched my heart is that they are doing a "Thank You Pamela" blog hop! And I seriously feel humbled and loved. THANK YOU LADIES! Thank you Brynn and the fabulous design team! And thank you to everyone who has been a part of my Scrapbook Challenges dream over the past several years. You all have made my day. You can start the hop HERE. Please go leave them all some love!

And I do have a layout to share with you today. It is not new. I made it for the April article I wrote for ScrapStreet. The article was called "Something to Say" and is all about using word bubbles on your projects. I actually ended up cutting this specific layout to make room for more fabulous reader submissions. :) You can read the article here. And here is the layout:


It uses fun papers from Nikki Sivils Scrapbooker. Here are some close up's:




And if you haven't checked out the May issue of ScrapStreet, what are you waiting for?



Check it out here! My article on amazing trees can be found here. But I did have a lot of help with this particular article, so I don't feel like I can take credit for it. The editors basically took it over for me. But I was SO excited about all the AMAZING projects I was featuring in it, so I hope you go check it out!

ScrapStreet is going through their own change. But I don't think they have announced any of it yet..so stay tuned for that.

Ok....only one last thing to say...

And most people I know question my sanity when I say things like this....

but...

HAPPY NATIONAL SCRAPBOOKING DAY (weekend)!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I love this hobby! And I love that we have our own national holiday! :)

Take care!

Happy Valentine's Day!!!

Happy Valentine's Day everyone! Seems like such a silly day. :) Ours is off to a sad/bad start. My 7 year old son was getting ready this morning for school and he sat on the couch and started crying. He didn't look good. I asked him what was wrong and he told me that he had really bad nightmares last night and they gave him a headache. I felt his head and he was very hot. He did not want to miss the Valentine's Day party at school and was so bummed when I told him that he had to stay home today. It breaks your heart to tell your kid that he can't go to the party he's been looking forward to all weekend.

Now he is laying on the couch. We dropped off his Valentines and asked that his teacher collect his for him. But he is still bummed about it. I think for lunch I will make him some chicken noodle soup and serve it to him with a Valentine's card from me.

I may use this one:


The team over at My Little Shoebox is sharing Valentines cards with you on the blog today. This was the one I made. It uses some of their new stuff! Make sure you check out this post to see what others created.
