Fun Run

Today I'm sharing a LO from the One Mile Fun Run that DD completed a few weeks ago during the 5K where I was suppose to participate but I was needed as a volunteer! The "Get Fit" 5K was an event of the Richmond Kappa Endowment Foundation.   Everything used was from my stash, the sunglasses and ipod were used as embellishments since thats what she was carrying in her hands as she ran!

Its Wednesday, a nice Fall day!  I am getting excited about my upcoming weekend crop retreat even though I haven't started packing because I still have alot to do.  Friday, I am hosting the Friday Night Chat (FNC) over on Scraps of Color (SOC).  I've been busy preparing my challenge projects as I can't operate under time contraints!  My laptop is still down so I'm not functioning at 100 percent!

Grandad's Love

Its Thursday and I haven't been able to get the Sea World LO redone, so I decided to share a LO that I finished last night.  I have been trying to scrap this picture of my father and my daughter for quite sometime.  The picture was taken last spring at a wedding and the sketch inspiration is from this week's sketch over at Sketch Inspiration.  This is the first time in a while that I've completed and been able to post before the Saturday deadline, they post new sketches on Sunday.  I can't remember which cricut cartridge I used for granddad but the love is a blinged sticker and I finally used one of the EK Success border punches that I got from Marshalls!  I'm gearing up for a special event on Saturday which means I need to switch gears.  It doesn't help that I'm having issues with my laptop so I'm just not happy right now.  I still do plan to work on a Sea World LO to share., I just couldn't get a good picture of the other one.

Birthday Bash Cards

Its Monday and I'm excited to share that I finally got some LOs and cards done over the weekend.  Today I'm sharing two cards that I created using the Birthday Bash cricut cartridge, I've decided I need to use more of my cartridges so here goes another scrappin' goal.  The cow card is a birthday card for our nephew who is turning 10 on Wednesday, the other elephant card is being sent to a chld that is going through chemo for leukemia.  Have a blessed week and come back tomorrow for one of my Sea World posts!

Friday Frenzy

I'm doing a happy dance because the work week is coming to an end, not the work though!  I am excited that I'm going to be leaving work  a few minutes early so I can go home and get ready to hopefully do some scrappin'.  I tried pulling some kits together last night and this morning and that didn't work so I'm just going to have to wing it.  My goal is to complete at least two LOs tonight and I'll devote more time over the weekend getting ready for my weekend crop next month.  Today I'm sharing a picture that I took yesterday at a rally where First Lady Michelle Obama was the speaker.  I'm fired up and ready to vote, I hope you all are registered and ready to vote too!  Have a blessed weekend.

Hello Thursday


Its Thursday and I'm finally taking the time to share a blog post,  I'm at a point where life is really getting in the way of my scrappin' and I'm not so happy.  Last night I started tying to pull together a few things for a crop that I'm suppose to go to tomorrow night; I'm still undecided as to whether I'm going.  I'm feeling  better but still not 100 percent so it takes way too much effort to do anything.  So today I'm sharing a funny picture, its not a very good picture but I like it.  While we were in Orlando we participated in a group wedding vow renewal ceremony and when it was time for me to repeat my vows I got so tickled so we just laughed our way through it.   I hope to sort through and scrap our Orlando pictures soon!  I've gotta go because I'm headed out to try to see the first lady!

Thursday Thoughts


Its Thursday and I feel like I need a few more days in this week to try to get caught up.  Needless to say I've had no time for scrappin' but I have been taking and printing pictures so that when I do find the time the pictures will be readily available.  We came back Monday afternoon from our trip to Orlando and we haven't unpacked because it was back to school and work on Tuesday but its on our agenda to  unpack Friday night, good thing I did laundry before we left Orlando!  So today I'm sharing a first day of school picture of our daugther.  She started 6th grade (middle school), I cried so much last few months I didn't cry on Tuesday.  I'm just keeping her covered in prayer.

Hello Saturday

Today I'm posting from Orlando, FL since we are at the Allstate Tom Joyner Family Reunion.  I've been  extremely busy and we're all very tired,  meant to share this LO that I'm posting today before I left.  Today's LO is another LO from the Anytime, Anywhere, Sketch Challenge hosted by Tiare over at iClassygirl.  This sketch is from week 29 I used pictures from our visit this past spring to see the King Monument in Washington, DC.  I'm not sure whether its the lighting or the colors that I used but its not a very good picture of the LO, maybe I'll redo it later.  Another project completed using items from my stash, used some epoxy stickers as the only embellishment.  Have a great holiday weekend!
