Mama's Boy

Hello!!

I have two layouts to share.

The first was for the Pet Challenge

at SB dot com. I did it DH read the title, Mama's Boy,

and said are you sure about that?? We had a laugh and 

the next time he had Gus on his lap I took a

photo so that I could do a *brother* page to it. Just for fun!! :)

Here's the Mama's Boy lo:

For the brother page, I used Creative Scrappers Sketch #223.

I will also the lo for the Boys, Boys, Boys Challenge.

The title for it is: She just thinks I'm a Mama's Boy!!

Thanks so much for stopping by!!

I hope that you have a wonderful,

love filled week!!

Until next time.......................tootles!!

P.S. He totally IS a Mama's Boy!! :)

Little Mermaid

Hello everyone!!
I have a couple new layouts to share today.

First up is for Creative Scrappers #220:

The darling rocking horse is from Faye at 

3tailscrafts. I inked it and added stickles too it!!

Next is for the 1 photo Challenge

at sb dot com. 

When I took this photo of my daughter I just thought

it was a nice nature type shot. After it was 

printed it reminded me so much of the

statue in Copenhagen, Denmark called 

"The Little Mermaid."

(You can see more about the statue by clicking on the link above)

Here's a photo of the statue:

The photo of my daughter:

Here is the lo I did with the picture:

This is my 4th attempt at scrapping this photo!!
I thought it should be real nature-y. When that didn't

look right, I thought....summery?? But that still wasn't

right so I tried flowery. NOTHING looked right.

So since I still had the little mermaid statue in my mind,

and even though the photo is NOT an ocean scene, 

I went with it!! 

I can hardly believe that I LIKE it!! DH and DD liked it too!!
Finally!! I had succeeded!! 

Thanks so much for stopping by and having a peek!!

Really do enjoy your visits and your comments!!

I hope that you have a wonderful, love filled day!!

Until next time...................................tootles!!

I LOVE Sketches!!

Hello!!

I love sketches!! I love that they provide

an idea that I can spin off of!! 

Sometimes I get way off the sketch, 

and sometimes I stick to the sketch!!

I love this layout!! 

I wasn't sure about the sketch when I started,

but the more I worked it, the better 

I liked it!! I always like the look

of clusters of embellies on the LO,

but am not that great at making it look right.

I like the way it worked on this lo!!

The sketch is from Creative Scrappers #219.

For whatever reason, the crown is off color. 

It's actually the same color as the word princess,

I know because I inked them both...with the same ink!! *L*

Thanks so much for stopping by!!

Until next time................tootles!!

WOW!! Post 300

WOW!! I can hardly believe that I have

posted to my blog 300 times!!

I have to admit I went back and looked

at a bunch of posts!! I'm surprised that

there are people who actually read this blog!!

THANK YOU!!

I know I haven't been posting very much,

but I just haven't been doing very many card

challenges as I was beginning to be overstocked with them!!

I have been doing layout challenges 

at sb dot com and having so much fun with it!!

However they get posted there in my gallery, 

so I haven't been posting them here.

Trying to decide if I should. 

At least for today, and in celebration of 

my 300th blog post, I think I'll share a few here!!

This first one was for 2 challenges:

My Creative Sketches 

Sb's monochromatic challenge-dust bowl 

These are a few other lo's I've done for challenges lately:

Thanks again for all the visits!!

Thanks for all the comments you've left!!

Thanks for being interested in my blog!!

I hope that each of you, have a 

wonderful, love filled week!!

Until next time..................tootles!!!
