Stir Crazy

I can't believe it...I've never seen so much snow...plus I've never seen snow hang around this long. Obviously I'm a southern girl!! Well the snow has kept me inside and I've become a little stir crazy. I want to go and play..but there isn't much to do..once it hits.

Well right now the girls are in bed, Tony is at work and I've got itune playing. I'm working on some winter ATC cards. I'll try to remember to post pictures of them once everyone gets them.

Here's what I've done this week:

This LO was fun to do...I finally used so glitter and my glue pad. Btw...my daughters really love glitter. We all sparkle from the glitter they've played with. :)

I did this for Scrap Whispers and the AMR's scraplift Challenge. I love the "Live your Life" by TI. It was my inspiration for this LO.

I did this tonight of Gigi playing on the computer. She's my lil Gamer, she loves to play computer games. She's always wanting to play on Webkinz, Buildabearville, ShiningStars or any other similar site. I did this one for the Mix it up Challenge Blog.

I hope you all have a great day...tomorrow I'm going to root for the Steelers in the Superbowl. I realized tonight..if I was still living in VA I'd probably be rooting for the Cards...but living here has influenced me to pull for the local team. Go Steelers!!!

Love and Hugs!!

Monday Monday Monday!!!

It's a cold Monday here in O-hi-O!! I keep wondering, when will it warm up and melt all the snow. I'm so ready for spring and summer!!

Yesterday I got a chance to meet Chrispea at a fairly local store. We met up and shopped the afternoon away. She is so fun and adorable!! We've talked the whole time while we picked out such cute papers. I was in scrappy heaven. The store was huge with everything, you could possibly imagine. I can't wait to go shopping with her again, but hopefully it won't snow this time.


Here's a couple LOs I created this weekend. I made this one Saturday night for the AMR Royal Scraplift Challenge.

Here's another LO I did for the friday Challenge. Go LIONS!! LOL

I hope you all have a great week!!
Hugs and Love

It's Friday!!

I've been scrapping today, while Gigi and Lexi worked on her letters!! Oh, today was report card day for Gigi as well. My 2nd grader came home with 4 A's and 1 B. I'm such a proud Mom. She does work hard.

Here's some LOs that I've been working on!!
I got these fun papers at Michaels.. I love this new friendly forest line!! It's so much fun!! I did this LO for ScrapWhisper and the AMR Royal Challenge. I double dipped again. :)

This LO is for the BASB, you needed to use 1 piece of pattern paper. I used Crate Paper!! I think it turned out cute!!

This was for the 52 sketches blog!! I love these pictures of Lexi and Princess sleeping together. :)

Here's another AMR challenge LO!! I also did it for the Mother's and Daughters Challenge blog. They set it up through the 52 sketches blog. I thought, why not?? LOL I love challenges...they are helping me get all my LOs done!!

I got snowed in...

yep I got stuck at home this weekend. We got about a foot of snow. Check out my other blog for pics. It wasn't so bad though. The girls and I played wii, ate; and hung out. Saturday night we fell asleep on the couch watching a Zac and Cody marathon on Disney. I woke up Sunday morning surround by my girls and dog. Princess was happy she got to join our impromptu slumber party. These are the types of moments I hope the girls will take with them through life.

Friday night started the AMR crop, you still have time to join in and do one of 36 challenges. Check out Stacey's Blog. She's got tons of cool things going on this year!! I'm so excited for her. :)

This weekend, I managed to get a few projects done.



I just love this LO right now!! :)

This LO is for the BASB. I used part of the Wii box for this LO. Check out all the cool projects they made over there. They even used an old Green Bean Can. So crafty...these girls!!


It's Monday...I posted over on the NBKS Blog. Check out the "new" challenge that has been posted. :)

I hope everyone has a fabulous day!! :)

Today I also started a new blog: Through the Lens, it's blank right now but this is where I'm going to post all my Pictures, it might not be updated everyday but it will show all 365 pictures plus journaling.
