Favorites


Here is a perfect example of why we need to make an effort to scrap ourselves.

At the end of 2009, I gave each family member a survey asking their "favorites" of the year. All my boys replied. I didn't complete my answers and failed to scrap the layout. This year, I set my mind on completing the layout with 2009 and 2010 favorites of my men. Don't you know, I couldn't remember my list from 2009. . . Michelle and I listed our favorites from this past year.

A sampling of the answers for "Favorite Activity" of 2010:
Greg--Nature Photography
Chris--Partying
Michelle--Hiking, camping
Bob--Getaway overnight trips
Cindy--Taking pictures with Bob

All Dolled Up

Happy Sunday!

I hope you had a safe New Year's Eve last weekend and are enjoying 2011!

On New Year's Eve, I had wonderful time attending a gala with my best friend. I am lucky to have a best friend who is also a makeup artist, so we got ready for the evening together, and she did my makeup for me. I love to put on a fancy dress with pretty makeup, hair, nails, and jewelry... I love to get all dolled up!

I enjoyed using the Webster's Pages Hollywood Vogue line for this layout.


Thanks for stopping by and have a great week!

This image was of camping with some great friends this last summer in Capital Reef and Torrey, Southern Utah. What a beautiful place. I thought it was appropriate due to the fact that I am missing the SUN.

I found some vintage beads from a disassembled necklace and strung them on craft wire. This was a fun outing going to some second hand shops with some friends. Then I used basic watercolor techniques to create the backgrounds. It is a wonderful way to get the colors you want without having to search. I would like to suggest that you get a inexpensive set of watercolors and play around it is much easier than you think. Hey it is the new year... try something new.

Wishing you all the best to come in the New Year-!
Enjoy....

My resolution





Happy new year!!!
I'm sorry...
My contribution has been one day late.
The resolution of my this year is "valuing my surrounding persons"
I want to value those (a master, friend) who support me.
It is much more difficult to act
by regarding a surrounding persons than I.

However, I want to work hard this year that it can be achieved.

Add Glitter to the New Year!!

Happy New Year to everyone!! I hope you all had a wonderful 2010. I LOVE GLITTER! For our New Year's party I wanted to make these super cute cups called "Girlfriend Glitter Cups". I found the idea on Margie Romney's blog and thought they we so cute but I wanted to make them myself instead of buy them from her (they were just to expensive for me). I will post more about them on my blog in a couple of days, so check it out. I made one for each of the adult girlies that were there. They loved them, and we all drank our Dr. Pepper out of them all night. In this layout I wanted to incorporate some of the elements I used on the cups. I made rosettes with ribbon (you can check out my tutorial on rosettes; in my tutorial I used paper towels but same applies using fabric or ribbon) to match the cups I made and I also got embossing crazy! I used a fishnet patterned stamp from Heidi Swapp's collection and some super pretty embossing colors. It was so fun to make this lo!

I hope you all have a wonderfully joyful and prosperous 2011 full of love and happiness!

Things that make myself HAPPY

Happy new year to you all.
Hope you all have a year full of scrapped ideas and opportunities. One of my scrapping goals for this year 2011 is to continue to fill my album with layouts of my self, -My story.
Do you have any scrapping goals for this year?

Today I show you a layout with the title "Tings that make myself happy".


It was a bit difficult to summarize everything in my life who makes me happy, but first and most off course my family. The joy of having them near me. To wake up next to my dear husband everyday, and hear our daughters padding step. The joy of seeing our joy in our son's eyes, when he tells us about funny things that he has experience. And of course getting to spend my summer holidays with my family in our caravan. Happiness is also to have the luxury to spend my own time in my scrap room. Being with my dearest friends and share my hobby with them.





This was some of the things in my life,that make me happy.

What makes you HAPPY?
