Had a great time at the scrapbook retreat! Made a cool altered canvas that I will post soon! Also did several layouts but I need to photograph and edit them. So here is a layout from a while back that I did at my friend Shelly's house. She commented and you might notice too that I do a LOT of water/pool layouts. Well what can I say?, that's what we do all summer! In this one I actually got my husband to do to the pool with us! It's almost scary how much he and my youngest son look and act alike! Pretty simple layout but I was doing 3 of the same pool trip! One for each of the boys books and one for the family album! I used Cosmo Cricket Salt Air, Jillibean Soup corrugated alphas, Cricut Life's A Beach, and even did some sewing!

 Here is a close up of the life preserver embellishment I made using Life's a Beach. I decided to use DMC floss instead of the paper cut out to go through the little holes, I really like it!

 This shows another embellishment I made by punching out two layers and putting them together, also shows the sewing. Thanks for looking, check back soon!

Well if anything could get me blogging it's this!
Today is the World Record Unity Blog Hop!!!!
If you are just visiting me and want to start the hop from the beginning please go HERE to the Unity Stamp Co. Blog!

Either way thanks so much for stopping by!
Unfortunately my mojo is still missing so this isn't a new project but it's one I LOVE that I used a BUNCH of Unity on!

The papers are MME as well as most of the embellishments. I used 5 different Unity stamps! Such a great layout of my boys!!!
If you are familiar with Unity then you know there are some amazing HUGE quote stamps! Angela is always sharing GREAT quotes!

I had a REALLY hard time picking ONE quote for today! I decided to go with the topic of change since I am facing HUGE changes in my career at the moment!

This is the one I decided to go with today:


Thanks again for visiting me now you are off to Lisa's blog!

I have been working on lots of layouts I just haven't posted them!
So this week I am going to give you lots of layout eye candy!!!
Starting today!
With Valentine's Day just this weekend, I thought I could get away with posting one more lovey project. This is a layout of me and my hubby for my AAM book.
Pretty simple layout.
I used a Unity journaling spot stamp and sewed on the lace and ribbon.
The flowers are layered with a CS heart that I punched using a MS punch.

I have been scrap happy over Christmas Break! This is a VERY good thing! A group of us on SCS called the PPPHM challenged each other to do 12 layouts over break (several of us are on vaca, or teachers etc). I must say I am doing better than expected! I have 8 of them done! I also got to spend a day scrappin and playing with my friends Cricut Expression! So it has been a very scrappy break!

This layout is of my boys opening stockings LAST christmas at my Grammies (our last one there sadly, she no longer lives on her own on the farm :C)This is a sketch off of Got Sketch? Valerie has some GREAT sketches! I even did her mini class awhile back. This is my first layout that I used my new sewing machine on!!! Just a little stitching but I LOVE it! TFL!
