What happened to October?!?!

Yikes! It is November already! Last time I checked it was October 15th! Unfortunately, I have been sick for most of the month...somehow I got viral meningitis. I have never felt sicker in my life and even ended up in the hospital for 4 days. I have a huge list of projects I wanted to get done for my etsy site and several other projects half done. I think I will save the halloween ones for next year. Hopefully soon I will be back to normal and scrappin.

Etsy shop now open!!!!!

I finally got my etsy shop open!!!! I am sooooo excited. I only have 6 items listed currently but hope to have lots more to add this week. Right now what I have up is 3 photo explosion boxes and 3 die cut sets. Make sure to check the etsy store often for new stuff! And tell a friend!

What I've been up too.

Oops I realized I haven't been keeping up with the blog and should include some of the other projects that I have complete. So here they are.

This is a door hanging that I made for my friend Laura who recently had a baby.

For my Mother-in-law I made a chipboard mini album.

I also made a 6x6 album for Steve's grandparents 60th wedding anniversary. I managed to get pictures of each person that came as well as a written message from each person. It was a fairly easy project considering the number of photos that I had to get. Unfortunately I forgot to take a picture of the album before giving it away. Oops!

Winner!!!! Silly layout

Yeah!!!! This is another winning layout for the MemoryWorks challenge! This time we were to follow a pagemap and include flowers. It is hard to use flowers on layouts with boys without looking too girly but I think I pulled it off. I love that the paper and flowers match Julian's shirt! And who couldn't love their silly faces! The flowers are all from Petaloo.

Winner!!!! WollyWorm Layout

WhoHoo!!!! This was one of my winning layouts for a MemoryWorks challenge. We were to use "critter" paper in our layout. I really enjoyed making this layout. One of my favorite parts is the wollyworm. It has flocking on it to make it "fuzzy". The patterned paper and journaling box is from American Crafts. Believe it or not I actually completed the journaling on this one:)

Summer Quote Layout

MemoryWorks Challenge Layout. We were to use a summer quote in the layout. In the circles it says "Lazy, Hazy, Crazy Days of Summer". I love the picture of Julian on the swing. It almost looks like he is flying. Again the papers are from My Mind's Eye. Unfortunately the picture makes the layout hard to see.

Mini golf layout

Another MemoryWorks challenge layout. This one was another color challenge. I love these papers from Fancy Pants! I think they are my favorite papers. Notice the journaling box yet to be completed...sigh. Again I love rub-ons!
