Spring Paper Bag Album

This is the latest Paper Bag Album that I have made for Spring (even though it is snowing outside right now). This album has 10 pages filled with colorful flowers and spring pastels. This and many more items similar will be available at the Northwest Arkansas Boutique Show on April 25th 10am-6pm at the NWA Holiday Inn Convention Center in Springdale.

Austin's Spring Soccer Season

I used the Cricut Cutter to with the Soccer Cartridge to do the Take a Shot and soccer ball. I added the medal that he received to the page as well. The decorative grass paper makes for a fun background.

They won the championship for his age group!

Drew's First Year of Baseball

Andrew was a natural as a Twin the first year of T-Ball.

Ever wonder what to do with the great Medal's they receive? I have mounted it right onto the page. That way you (or they) will know what event they earned it. I have yet to figure out what to do with the trophies, they don't seem to work on the page!

Trick or Treat (in January)

Yes, I am late getting this one posted. However, I just found time to get it scrapbooked. The spider (with googly eyes) I cut with my Cricut cutter (Doodlecharms cartridge) the rest is just stamps, ribbon and fun paper.

If you are looking to invest in a BIG Cricut, it is worth it. There are many more options than on the regular size cutter. Between several of my friends we have a Big Cricut that we call our "step child." We each take turns spending quality time with it, mostly weekends.

We finally gave in and got the boys a puppy just before Christmas. He is an 11 week old Miniature Schnauzer named Biscuit. It is quite an adjustment to add the 5th boy to the household.

Simple little embellishments can really make a page fun, think outside the box. Not to mention when the objects in the photos are cute!

Beginner's Scrapbooking Class

I know that all of you have at some time said to yourself, I wish I had a beautiful scrapbook album to show off my family photos or special occasions. After speaking to many of you the main concern that I heard was that you did not know where to start, what to do first, what supplies were needed and is there enough time in my day to add one more To Do.

It does not have to be a complicated process. Join me on Thursday January 8th & 22nd at 6-8pm to create the first page (or 2 or 3) of your families legacy. The cost will be $50 for both classes, all you need to bring is your photos, acid free cardstock, adhesive (you can use photo glue, I prefer double sided tape) and any special embellishments such as stickers or ribbons. I will provide everything else.
