Fun and Easy Scrapbook Pages











I have been working on the scrapbooks every year my sister in law comes over and we get our scrap on, we make 8 6x6 albums for aunts, grandma's and other family members....here is a sneak peak, because I have been studying this is about all I can add at the time. Halloween is in 1 day and that means Kev's b-day party is this Saturday!!!!! I still haven't gotten him anything for his birthday and it doesn't look real promising. He says he doesn't want anything but he is like a kid, he expects presents for his birthday....so I must come through...plus I still have to go to the store and get food for the party, o'yea and clean my house....plus squeeze in Easton time, carve pumpkins, bring in the rest of my flowers before the freeze and..........you get the drift. I'm not sure that anybody but Heather really even looks at my blog so I'll just say that if you want to know what I used, just ask, it is usually hobby lobby paper and stamps or stampin up paper and stamps....

Lauren's Saturday Sketch

Well we had a really fun weekend my friend Julie and I went to an Oncology review course and had tons of fun. We went out after working 10hours, and driving for 4 to 5 hours, we had a couple of drinks and boy do they fix them strong in Neb.!!!! Just when the night was about over, I saw some people setting in the hot tub that closed @ 10, seeing that it was after 1am, we decided to get our swimsuits and go for a little while, at 2am we went to bed and woke up @ 7am to get the meeting. The speaker was so AWESOME, I didn't even come close to going to sleep!!! After the 9 hour meeting we went shopping, at you guessed it, a scrapbook store and found some sweet stamps that I just used today. We shopped and ate a restaurant and left around 8pm, we should have arrived @ 1 am, but we got a little lost, because I was talking and Julie was listening, so we got home at 3 am....fun, then to the pumpkin patch at 9am the next day and that is always a blast. The rest of the weekend was a blur, eating, going to the store, and going to church, plus picking up and doing laundry. I woke up this am at 5 to do some "projects" however Easton woke up too...so I had to finish them this evening while we caught up on some shows that have been taped....here they are the first was for 2 of my bosses, and the second will become some thank yous and birthday cards using Lauren's Saturday sketch....I used some patterned paper from hobby lobby, I used stamps from stampin up besides the Saturday sketch and that was a set from the store in Neb., I usually use basic colors, pink,brown, silver, white, and pink again

I also made a thank you to Heather Schlattler for the B-Day gift she gave me and a sympathy card for a patient who's husband past away. All of the paper is stamping up, except the patterned paper on the bear card, it was clearance at Hobby Lobby and both stamp sets are from stamp in up, the bear card is Under the Stars a new set in the current catalog and the other is a set I have never used that is a retired stampin up hostess set from last year....thanks for looking

I need a break!!!





It's been a very long week!!! Where do I begin, It's been a the week of goodbyes, My dad's sister died and so I made some sympathy cards for his other sisters, then 2 of my co-workers are leaving us so I made some earrings and cards for them the pictures are below. I have some pics of my family at the boat club and of my brother giving driving lessons in to Easton in the driveway...good times. I took some 3 year olds to the zoo and story hour on my day off. We had 2 going away parties..Thurday and on Friday, plus I went to Hobby Lobby 3 times this week and got some AWESOME deals!!! On Sat., after CPR class, I went to the K-State game and that was a blow out, after planning weekend to myself to scrap..why is it that when we have plans to scrapbook it never happens? I had to clean on Sunday and then I went to the park and zoo with my family. I also went to my friend Heather's to her stamp club and made some sweet projects...now, I need to get to bed because work is just a few hours away!!!em

PS. does anyone have some clues on how to take better card pics? I tried them on my stove under a bright light...I guess I need to call Heather...
