busy, busy busy!

What a crazy couple weeks!  I'm not complaining, it just fells like yesterday that I last blogged and I found it strange that when I logged on to my blog I noticed that it's has been a couple weeks!  Where has the time gone?  I did spend an awesome weekend in the states with my very dear friend Nadine.  We went to see the So you think you can dance tour in Manchester NH.  It was AMAZING!!!  I'm a huge fan of the show but I left with a greater appreciation of the talent these artists have.  I laughed, I cried, I screamed, and some parts left me speachless.  We also went shopping at Kittery and North Conway.  My first experience in outlet shopping and I loved it.  All around a fantastic time with a great friend.  Hope to make it a yearly trip.

My daughter's  7th birthday is coming up and she wanted to make her invitations herself this year.  I told her to go through my scrap box (a box of paper scraps that I leave ender my scrap table that I let my girls play with) and pick out the papers that she liked best.  I then let her pick out the cardstock that she wanted for the background.  I was amazed at the final product.  I have to say that I guided her a bit, but she did all the glueing and she had the final say.  She also wanted all the cards to be different, saying that she loves all her friend for diferent reasons and she wanted the cards to be a unique as her friends are.  She put a lot of though and effort (even cutting out the butterflies from the Life's Delight paper) behind every single card.  I am so proud of her! 



Well that's if for now, hopefully another couple weeks won't slip by before I find a minute to blog again. 

A bientot!! I

Austria trip scrapbook

Well, a little over a year after coming back from Austria and I can say that my album is complete.  I still have a couple of journaling spots, and I might retouch a couple layouts adding a button or a brad here and there, but all in all my album is done!  I am so proud of the finished product, but I'm still kind of sad that it's complete.  I had so much fun making this album, reminiscing about every little aspect of the trip that I had dreamt of since I can remember.  Altough Austria would probably not have been my first choice in country for my Europe vacation, I left with a promise to return.  I simply loved the place. 

Last page of my Austria album using PassageWorshop on the go with picures of my favorite sites I visited during my vacation

Another layout I did with the Passage kit.

These 2 layouts were made at the CTMH convention in 2008. They were from a the Perfect Day Workshop on the Go, perfect for my Graz pictures

 

and here is my favorite picture off all from my trip.  I used the Twitterpatted Workshop on the Go kit for this one. 

I'll be taking pictures of my favorite layouts I did over the years while I'm organising my scrapbooks and posting them in the next couple days.  See you soon!
