To remember scripture I like to see it so I created this for each of my friends in the Women's On Mission group I belong to using a kit Rina is about to retire called Carpetbag. I love the colors and old fashioned feel to it and the ladies loved their cards! If you would like a copy please let my know and I will send it to you via email. If anyone that does not scrap would like to have me do a scripture card please ask, I do so many pages with the kits from my designers and would not mind at all!

*******************

A quick rundown on yesterday before I go the a cakewalk at church (I made gooey Death by Chocolate cookies and put in a basket)
Lynn went to yard sales with me and we found some wonderful Premie boy clothes for her babies and after Gina cut my hair off so I can be cooler she and David, Les and ate grilled chicken, had fresh creamed corn, beans and slaw. Les put a tomato from his garden in the slaw and it was good! I really enjoy Lynn's company and hope we can do this more often!
Poor Lynn ended up giving many of the clotes and socks to her great-nephew who was born July 1, Payton who happens to be a distant cousin of mine. I hope she will get then back soon, LOL!

The Scripture Challenge for SBE is at post below.

I have been so busy today! I started out my favorite way and went to a yard sale at my Grandmother's church and got 3 wooden dining chairs for $9. Now when we have friends over we don't have to wheel over the computer chairs, LOL!
When I got home I started cleaning the garage and got a lot thrown away and more room. I still have to go through boxes I want to price for a yard sale.
I did do these two pages when I got up early this morning. They are from Charli's birth and I used In Memoriam by Rina Kroes and Kimmi Stewart @ SBE.
After Les got off work we finished up the garage, went to see my Grandmother, ate at China Garden and then we went over to play with Charli. She was in a silly mood, I took her some Leap Frog toys and a Magna Doodle and she had a blast! She has loves to play Hop on Pop. She will try her best to jump!
I took some pictures of my flowers and will post later when I get more time.

I made this using In Memoriam which is by Rina Kroes and Kimmi Stewart I made 6 pages with this kit. I was finding pictures from last year and this year. It is probably the best kit I own! So many beautiful pieces and colors!
Had a great day at work yesterday, had 4 kids! I am getting a new assistant who is wonderful! She spent some time with us, I am going to miss Amanda but am glad to have Cassadra!
I can't wait to see Charli today! It really makes my week!

I am really Blessed to be able to work with Rina and Kimmi's kits! These are from a Collab between the two called IN MEMORIAM it is Amazing! A huge rage of colors and elements.
I took these flower/insect photos at Park seed last year, the paper on the middle one is recolored a little to match the flower (the advantage of digital scrapping)
The other is Gina 5 years ago at her graduation the Word Art is also by Rina for this week's Scripture challenge at SBE

Be sure to store by my friend Zaroga's Blog! She had Chocolate on the Brain, LOL! You will learn a little bit, too!

A card for Kevin

I got up this morning and made a card to take to Kevin from our Sunday School Class, I know it will brighten his day. I also thought it would be a great example to the girls how beautiful scripture is and I have a mini lesson on this one, I had picked up a duck feather when Charli and I went last week, that will work out just right.
Rina creates the most wonderful word art, this is from last week's challenge at Scrapbook Elements, each week we get a new one, it is a PNG file so Zaroga if you ever want to try making a card you can go get it and it will layer on a photo or background and I can help you... or I can make some for you if you send me some photos. I print mine at Walgreens and sometimes I put them on a blank card and sometimes I don't I also can do bookmarks for you and get 2 on a page, I would love to do it for you anytime.
The kit I used is new and called Moroccan Nights by Rina but the feather came from Oh Night Divine and the red flowers, frame and angel charm came from Classic Elegance from Kimmi Stewart. I like the way it looks, Les said he liked it, too.
Well I hope everyone is feeling well! The sun is shining, the birds are chirping and hopefully it will be a gorgeous day! I know I sure feel great and can't wait to see Charli at church!

Sometimes Charli really shows out, LOL! I made this page for a challenge at SBE, they give you a title and you make a page, I used Flutter Free and a glitter overlay by Rina and Content and Somebody For me by Kimmi because I wanted to match her outfit.
I was going to keep her Saturday night but Gina asked if she could move it to Sunday because she has a wedding party Saturday and it will be after 4 when she gets off. I told her that was fine. I hope it will be pretty and maybe we can do something special like go to the park. I am sure we will go see Les's parents.
I need to get a picture of my 'new do' up. Gina cut my hair short and I have gotten so many compliments on it! Even one of the men from church last night said he liked it. Les has said several times he does which is really special because he likes long hair - and red. She did put some color on it, she says it's to make it 'glow' I let her do whatever she wants because I know she doesn't want her Mom to look bad, LOL!
I guess I will find out later if Les has to walk around several more weeks with that boot on or if his foot has healed. I am aggravated that the Reclast IV I got for my bones cost over $3600.00! After insurance paid I still owe $672! I am going to have to tell my Dr I can't afford that every year, that's CRAZY! Just to avoid a broken bone, I can't take the pills because they make my reflux worse.
Well off to play with my babies!

I have made several pages today, this one is done so I have a QP to give away for the Scripture Challenge at SBE, it is made using several of Rina's kits mixed together.
One of my favorite Digi friends Anders AKA Chickendude sent me the link to an article he wrote for a Scrapping magazine, I hope you will take a minute to look!

I really enjoyed it!
Les' foot is very swollen, poor thing, walking with the boot on one foot and winching every time he steps down, plus he has to work today! I told him he really needs to see a specialist! I guess I will have to get some of our friends to tell him the same thing so he will listen!

Happy Birthday Rina!

HAPPY BIRTHDAY RINA!

I really love working with Rina and Kimmi at Scrapbook Elements! They are wonderful designers and I am blessed to create with their beautiful kits! I got this one last night... it is Mellow on My Mind
I am catching up on some of Rina's older kits even though I love her new things so much. I just love these soft colors and tend to get her kits with pinks in them just because I love to make Brag Book pages for Charli. Working with Rina gave me the inspiration to do stacked papers, I really love this look! I don't want to be greedy and ask for too many kits, LOL, I want to be around a Long Time!
Each week Rina blesses us with gorgeous Scripture Word Art at SBE the thread is Here
It would be great if you stopped by and joined us for the weekly Scripture Challenge, it is great getting to know people that are not afraid to scrap their faith!

*****************

Les is a Grumpy Bear this morning! I feel sorry for those at work today! He got me to bring him Advil when I got up at 5:30 and then he got up and asked if I was OK, I said I was fine and he fussed because I didn't ask if HE was OK. I knew he wasn't because he had asked for the Advil but we had just talked about not complaining so much the other night! Then he was looking for his gout med and asked me where it was, I told him I did not touch his medicine except to get him the Advil and he blows up about how a simple No would do.
He had trouble putting on his shoe and I asked him if he had been keeping up with what he ate and he said he had had Nothing he wasn't supposed to! Now he is really aggravated I didn't give him a hug... I told him not to start my day badly and expect a HUG! I did tell him I loved him though. Please pray for him and his right broke foot and left foot with Gout!

Rina and Kimmi are having some Terrific $1 specials Friday at SBE and this is made from Rina's Oh Night Divine! It has got to be the most Gorgeous Kit I have Ever worked with! Everything is packaged in parts so you can buy what you need, The starry elements, the worn papers, etc. I couldn't help but putting those wings on Charli!

I got some pictures on her standing I will post later...
