Just sharing...

Here are a couple of the layouts I designed for challenges at Colorful Creations.

This is one of my son's graduation:
Here is my grand daughter helping with laundry.  The wacky holiday challenge I chose was National Laundry Workers Week and this picture showed the spirit of the holiday.  I love how she is helping and the second picture shows the result of said help!


Here is one of my grandmother and great grandmother.  This is my example for the July 1-15th Girls R Us challenge:

Just some crafting going on

I have a couple of things that I've done and just wanted to share.  First is the birthday invite for my grand daughter's first birthday.
Then I did a page for a challenge in honor of Father's Day:

Finally I made a flower ball by starting with a 6 inch square of paper:

one of these squares makes one petal:

Five petals make one flower:
Twelve of these flowers and some ribbons make the entire flower ball.  Put together in 2 halves so the ribbons can be glued inside:

Happy Scrapping!

Busy Day

Well we have 3 of the 5 grandkids this weekend.  We were up at 7 am, I had blueberry and chocolate chip pancakes made for everyone, got everyone dressed and out the door by 9 am.  We went to a special "Dairy Days festival" where the kids had face painting, free ice cream, milk, gogurts, played games and went through a petting zoo!  We then went to the park and rode the train and merry go round, came back to town and went to Hobby Lobby.  The kids picked out papers to make mini paper bag albums.  What fun!!!  We came home, had lunch, rested for a bit, went to the water splash pad to play, came home had dinner, did our projects, gave the kids baths and snacks and now everyone is ready for bed!  What a fun (but busy) day!

Dylan even made a special project (for boys only) with grandpa that he is going to give daddy for Father's Day!
