Miss Mollie....


Ok so last week... Robby was at the mountains with Grandma and Grandpa...so Mollie was posing for the camera... Isn't she a beauty...... I've really been blessed with some adorable kids :) Thanks for letting me share :)

Congratulations Robby!!!



O my gosh I tear up whenever I see this photo of my sweet boy Robby....you see Robby is autistic and he graduated from his Autistic Pre-School on August 15. Until last year, you couldn't have a conversation with Robby and he couldn't understand you, he couldn't eat with a fork, or sit still, he couldn't do SO MANY things...... the last 3-6 months he's blossomed into this wordster... he doesn't quite know what all the words mean or how to use them properly but he TRIES SO HARD! He memorizes everything and repeats things until he memories them and processes it.... So for me this photo is so much more than a typical pre-school photo... this is a HUGE accomplishment...these times are the stepping stones to the rest of his life and he's come leaps and bounds to get where he is today and I'm SOOOOO PROUD of him... Mommy loves you boy!

I'm alive...

Ok so I have been busy recovering from surgery... and I will continue to recover for the next few weeks...I haven't been able to scrap a whole lot because it's been very uncomfortable to try to scrap... so I'm goin to be working on a 1 pager for my contest.....although I will be postponing the contest until September now just because I want to make sure I have photos of the layout and everything done :) so I can ship it to the winner ASAP!

Look for some EXCITING things from me in September on Ebay! There are LOTS of ideas in the works and I'm VERY EXCITED about them all! :)

My scrap world is being re-vamped...my hubby decided to make me a new scrap area... with a new desk and everything all organized... I will post pix when it's all done as construction started today. WOOHOO!!!

Lazy Scrapper Tip #3

Ok so Ya know when you're chugging along and OMG I made a mistake or OMG I spilled glue someoce I shouldn't have or your messed up on stitching or maybe your outlined and someone scred ya to death and ya scribbled, hey it's OK NO WORRIES..... This is scrapbooking... and there are NO MISTAKES in scrapbooking! There's nothing we can't fix or enhance.

Ok so you made a boo-boo and at first you cuss and scream then you wanna pout and cry, who can blame ya it cost ya a fortune and took lots of time.... no worries.... just cover those spots up, with some beautiful prima flowers, or maybe some beautiful ribbons, maybe you could cover it with a tag, add a little critter of some kind if it's in a spot that allows, or maybe use a die cut or make your own with your cricut and cover up that boo-boo. Your happy little mistake has just made you think outside of the box and shows your different ways in which you can enhance your beauitful pages.

The possibilities are endless, so next time you make a boo-boo... no worries... just be creative :)

Wishing you a DINO-MITE SUMMER!!!

Lazy Scrapper Tip #2
Ya know the xyron X....well, did ya know when you create your own sticker and after you pull it through BEFORE you take off that top plastic piece save yourself some trouble....take a pen and trace each letter/piece with a pen then pull off the clear plastic strip on top..... you're saying to yourself WHY... well when you trace it you fuse the adhesive around the pieces and you won't get those horrible (what I refer to as lil boogers LOL) gummy globs of adhesive, instead your pieces will have clean edges and they will peel off nicely.
There ya have it...tracing those letters is much easier than getting all those lile glops of adhesive all over the pieces you worked so hard to create :)
Look for more lazy scrapper tips from me :)
