Just a slice, please

The CK Triple Toot!

So, my big news for the week is I had THREE layouts requested for the Nov/Dec issue of Creating Keepsakes!!  I am pretty darn proud of myself that all three layouts I submitted to them got selected...pretty darn proud!  This isn't my first go-around with CK but it is a HUGE milestone none the less!!  I've never had more than one layout get picked up for the same issue so this is very exciting to little old me!

I've been enjoying my work with Scrappin Sports n More...I love what a clean look I get when I use their papers.  It is old school scrapping at it's best for me, and I love the layouts I create for them.  Here's a couple I've shared on their blog but not here:

I've also been very busy with my new responsibilities as DT Coordinator at Little Red Scrapbook.  LOVE the girls on the new DT...everyone is settling in nicely and the board is hopping along once again.  Come check it out if you haven't yet...not only are our kits the BEST in the industry, we have some fun challenges and friendly faces, too. :)

on a personal note, the kids and I are all suffering from "senioritis" despite none of them being seniors in High School.  Everyone is pretty much "done" with the hustle and bustle and stress of the school year..sadly, it's only going to get worse before it gets better.  The bigs have finals coming up the week after next, then more the following week, just to be compounded with recital rehearsals, ending with the bang of the recital!  Then...ahh...a few weeks off for them while Cammy finishes up (yes their schools aren't on the same schedule this year).  I can not WAIT to get to that point.  Lots of fun to be had until then though...

This weekend is full of birthday parties and Mother's Day, the following weekend I am going to Inspired Journey, a smallish event hosted by my friend Ginger and Teresa Collins...two full days of creating and no kids (hopefully!) and a cheer banquet for Jillian. Throw in dress rehearsals for the recital and the actual recital followed by a family baby shower for which I am in charge of decorations and I will come up for air June 10th..so if I am a bit scarce until then..you know why!  Hope your days aren't as crazy as mine and you are getting lots of crafty "me" time!

A little scrappy!

I have some shares for you today!  

I never did share my Little Red Scrapbook kit work..first up is my Monthly Challenge layout.  I challenge you to use the word "Tweet" in your title or subtitle.  I used Nikki's sketch for this challenge, so it's a 2fer, really. 

Next up is "Make a Wish"...

And lastly, Sunday smiles...Cammy wrote on one tag and Eric, the other, what they love about spending time together on Sundays (usually the only day DH is home during the week).

Next up, is a layout I did for Scrappin Sports n More this week..lots of fussy cutting on those softballs, lol.  

And lastly, one just for me. Basic Grey hosted a sketch challenge and I decided to play along with pictures I took yesterday...the rainbow was so pretty and I was feeling pretty lucky...so here it is..

So there you go...see, I have been scrapping besides Project Life! :)  

OH emm GEEEE!

If I've been a little quiet lately it's because I've been sitting on fun news and I am sort of bad at keeping secrets!  LOL   So rather than spill the beans I've kept quiet but now I can shout it out!  

 

 

First off, VERY excited to announce that I will be joining the Scrappin Sports Design Team for the next 6 months.   I may actually get caught up on all the girls soccer, softball, dance and cheer stuff!  Yay!  You can see the announcement on their blog here.

And JUST as exciting to me, I am the Guest Designer over at My Mind's Eye this month!!!!  OH my gosh...my absolutely postivitely favorite manufacturer and I am so blessed to be working with all the sweet ladies on the blog this month!  We will have sketch challenges and loads of inspiration so be sure to follow along over there, too!!  My Mind's Eye Blog

So, if I'm not as posty this month, it's because I'm being SCRAPPY!  LOL  Off to hit the scraproom...  hope you all have a scrappy day, too!
