True Meaning of Christmas

Here's the completed album I did for Faith Sister True Meaning of Christmas challenge.  I really like how it turned out and I may add more pages in the future.

True Meaning of Christmas Album - Trees

Here's a two page LO for the "True Meaning of Christmas" album I'm doing for the challenge at Faith Sisters.  It was fun to use old pix of our trees through the years.

The True Meaning of Christmas Album

So here's the album that I am making for the challenge at Faith Sisters.  It's going to be a great one to have over the years.  I used Basic Grey's paper to cover a Making Memories Noteworthy album and then embellished it up...didn't take long, & I love how it turned out. 

Sneak Peek

Whew, today's been super busy, but I just wanted to pop in & show you a sneak peek of what I've been working on for a upcoming 9 week challenge at Faith Sisters....it's going to be so fun!   Make sure you stop in & see what the challenge is tomorrow & how others are stepping up to the challenge to create something really special for the Christmas season.

Free class & new LO

Did you see this class Jessica is offering for free????  Looks like it will be a good one!  As I've mentioned before, I want to concentrate on scrapbooking meaningful pages, not just cute ones....so I think this class will help with that.

  Here's a LO I did for a challenge at Faith Sisters.  The journaling says: At such a pivotal time in history, I feel privileged to be able to vote in the upcoming election.

....or catch-up? I hate them both. Yep, I'm behind on my blog yet again. But the good news is that I switched out my cell phone that has been driving me crazy for a new one (and it's pink!) that actually works! I'm SO happy with it.! So hopefully I'll be better at blogging now, 'cuz I can blog from it. :D

Oh, also, today is the last day of the Birthday Bash over at Faith Sisters...so go check it out....there's lots of prizes to win!!

No picture layout - Stories Passed Down

I'm not a great journaler (is that even a word????)...it just is not my SBing strength, but I've been trying to do LOs this year that are not just fluff.  I want them to truly tell the story of my life & my family.  Well, with Faith Sisters newest challenge of SBing your "favorite Bible story" I didn't know what photo to use....and then when I jotted down what story I wanted to tell I was surprised to see how long it was....so it dawned on me that I don't NEED a picture this time.  AND on top of that, I didn't even use my sewing machine on this one (it seems like I use it on just about every LO I do LOL)...I did faux stitching (AKA, I used a pen to make mock stitch lines around some of the squares & across part of the title). ---->To see what supplies I used or to read the journaling click here.

Another LO with older pix

First off....let me just say it...I HATE computer problems....and doesn't it always seem to happen at the WORST times!!  Thankfully my router problem is resolved for now & I'm online.  :D

I've been busy working on a lot of different creative team projects and I'm happy that I can share this one with you.  Now, before I do, you have to PROMISE me you won't laugh at the picture I used....it's another oldie.  (Like you couldn't tell by the hair LOL!)  I've had this pic floating through my photo piles for just about forever....I knew I wanted to use it, but I didn't know how until I got saw the challenge at Faith Sisters on restoring your soul.  The first thing that popped into my head was this picture & how God's word restores my soul.....so there you have it, my LO.

Ok, now remember, you promised you wouldn't laugh.

Bible Study Fellowship LO

Here's my LO for the new article at Faithfully Yours.  I did it on BSF which will be starting up again next week.  -Can't wait!!  It's is so nice to be able to study Scripture for yourself & alongside with others who want to do the same.  I've met so many great women there and I'm excited to see what's happening in their lives these days.

2008 Scripture Challenge Catch Up

As you all know, I'm behind in this challenge....but thankfully I got up on time today & neglected some housework in order to play a little catch up.  Here's my ATCs:

Maybe I'll have more time later today to make more...but for now I must clean up this place!!!

Tootles!
