Brotherly Love

I completed another scrapbook page yesterday. This one is going to go in my oldest son's book. This is the first time he held his little brother. My mom went and set his brother in his lap.

I'm in a couple stash busting scrapbook groups and in one of them they put up a sketch to use. I used 22 eyelets and 3 of my big brads on this layout.

Lucky

I haven't scrapped in over a month. It felt good to get back into my pictures. (I'm still quilting the car blanket-we took a little trip this weekend to visit my FIL in the hospital)

This picture is from 2 years ago. Hard to believe my youngest will be 3 this week!

There is a crop happening on the Paper Issues FB page and one of the challenges is to use the word Lucky or the color green on a project. I started flipping through a stack of pictures and this one jumped out at me, all 3 of my boys wearing green and the youngest ones shirt says Lucky on it!

I hope to scrap a few more pictures this week.

Christmas Paper Challenge

In one of my Facebook Groups, they are having a challenge to create a Christmas kit with 100 papers/embellishments. When I first started pulling from my stash I didn't think I would get anywhere near 100 items.

But before I knew it I had this

, this

this,

and this.

I have: 3- 12"x 12" papers, 5- 8.5"x11" papers, 7-8"x8" papers, 59-6"x6" papers, 2-4"x6" papers, 44-4"x6" PL cards, 62-3"x4" PL cards, 14-3"x4" papers, plus a bunch of embellishments. Total 196 papers plus a bunch of embellishments!!!!

Since my 15 year old decided he is going to make homemade apple pies for both Grandparents house for Thanksgiving, I put my machine away this morning and made this page with this Christmas stash.

Still along way to go to get through my Christmas stash, but it's a start.

Project Life Week 12 and 13!

I got two more weeks done!!

First up week 12, the week I hit a deer with while bringing my son to the hospital. My dad came and rescued us, brought us to the hospital for them to tell us it's just a virus. A couple days later brought him into clinic-double ear infection!

Week 13, this is the first time I used a Design E layout. (Week 14 is going to be on the flip side of this-just happened they both will fit this style!)

Project life

In one of the Facebook groups I belong to it's all about using up your scrapbook stash and not buying more. I will probably buy some here and there but I do want to use up what I have. The first challenge in the group was to make some goals. I decided to include this in my 2016 Week 1 PL layout.
