Happy Monday!


Wishing all a very happy Monday!  I finished another Ava layout today and want to share it before leaving on vacation early tomorrow morning.  
The photos were taken in July of 2012 at the annual Glow Run 5K to raise money for local organizations.  I decided to scrap this event with as much color as possible since color is the main theme for the fundraiser.  

I was in such a hurry to finish the layout that I didn't realize until after taking my photo that I need to add a title, journaling, and date.  I quickly added a title and date and will add journaling later....the one thing I dislike the most about scrapping.
My second layout is of Ava, Raegen, and Rachelle painting their nails before attending the Glow Run.  Ava loves having her nails painted, insisting that each nail is painted a different color.  

The first two layouts were scrapped using mostly Basic Grey paper and elements from kits that need to used....love the colors.
I am also sharing a layout that I scrapped in January and have not posted until now.  I am trying to get caught up before Raegen heads back to school.....yikes!

I still need to share what all has happened since the first of the year and will later....many changes in our lives.

Thank you for visiting my blog.  God Bless

Precious Memories

Today I am sharing two more layouts of Ava.  I have been busy this summer trying to get caught up to a certain point before Raegen goes back to school.  This year will be a big change for all of us since Ava will be in kindergarten...she is very excited to be going to "mommies school".  My days with Grayson will be very quiet without his big sister to keep us entertained.  

My first layout was scrapped using Sketch #109 by Audrey Yeager at My Scraps and More Sketches using the Best Friends kit from Carta Bella and miscellaneous Basic Grey paper.  I have no idea how long I have had the kit, but the colors were perfect.
I had a hard time getting the angles correct, adding more pieces than the original sketch...probably due to my overthinking the process.  

 My second layout was lifted from a previous layout of mine and using the same paper.  

Wishing all of blessed day.  I will be sharing more layouts soon....thanks for stopping by.

Good Morning!  

Today I am sharing two more layouts that I finished last week.  During my time of no blogging I was able to scrap, just didn't take the time to share my layouts.  This past year I took a monthly Basic Gray class at the LSS, loved it even though there were times that I was unable to attend....ultimately giving me a lot of Basic Gray kits to scrap.  I loved the classes, enjoyed meeting new scrap friends, but decided not to take the class for another year so I can get caught up on my unused kits.  
My newest layouts were scrapped using paper from my Basic Grey kits, BG stacks and other paper.  My goal this summer is to finish layouts of Ava for 2012 and 2013....getting closer to that goal.

I am enjoying my summer off, sure helps having time to scrap.  I will add more finished layouts in my next blog.  Wishing all a great weekend.
