Today I took on the challenge over at Gutter Girlz. This challenge was right up my alley! Anyone who knows me will definitely know what I mean LOL!!! The challenge was to use a prompt, song and technique of their choosing in your LO. The Prompt: Zip it; The Song: Shut Up by Kelly Ozbourn; the technique: Use a Zipper on your page.The journaling says...Screaming kids! Annoying people! I would...

This LO has got to be one of my favorites. I did it while at that crop a little over a week ago. The pic is of My older brother and me. I love how we match and poor Maris was dressed in pink LOL This was like 1982 but still LMAO!!!Aren't I a pudgy monkey??? :)The journaling says:"Maris and Kristy, Lots of Love, Cute siblings, Hugs from my Big Brother"The frame around the pic I sketched out and...

I was catching up on my blogs on Friday before I left for the crop and reading Momma Lizzie's blog she had a great LO from a new blog called Punk Rock Scrappers. The challenge was to say why you were UNlucky (kinda a reverse homage to St. Patty's). It didn't really take too much thought for me to come up with how I was unlucky. Though I don't think I'll be showing this to my extended family...

BUZZZZZZZ!I just slid in right under the buzzer with my LO for the "Imagine Challenge" on CM. Or that's what I'm calling it at least LOL!!! I think it had a nicer title. I started on it yesterday but didn't have time to finish with children who think bedtime is the worlds worst punishment! I ended up snugglin dd and reading my book which in and of itself is wonderful but that LO was calling!...

I ran across this blog called Scrap Mojo really randomly. It was in the description line of a LO on 2Peas. Most times I don't check these things but I liked the LO so much I was intrigued. The challenge on the blog caught my imagination as well. The challenge was to make a LO answering "If I ruled the world___" but I put it off in lieu of getting ready for our Challenge Blog If the Shoe Fits......

I had alot of fun Friday doing alot of the challenges on an online crop on CafeMom! It was the first time I had really participated in something like this. There were so many challenges and it was fun to see what everyone did for the same thing. I thought I'd post a few of the things I did. I think that this is the most I've done in one day (especially since I worked off and on)!!!DH came home...

Today I checked in at So Tell Me Your Story: All About Me Challenge Blog and this months challenge is to do a LO based on some thing(s) that came true for you in 2008. Thinking back, this has been kind of a gloomy year for us but one thing for me personally really shined through. Since moving here 5 years ago I have never really been able to find a friend. Its been kind of lonely and hard in...

I've been SOOOOOO busy (kids being sick, hubby being stubborn work getting busier and busier, hanging out with friends when I can etc etc etc) but I've managed to keep plugging away. I'm trying to try new things with my LO's. I 99% of the time start out with a plain cardstock BG but I tried pp with my latest BOM page. It made me nervous in the beinging (literally, I almost tore it back apart)BUT...

This LO was especially hard because I don't consider myself in anyway beautiful in the traditional sense and being nice to myself is hard. I think the LO turned out really well and the journaling, while taking forever to get going was therapeutic. I think I rambled more than a bit though. I'm going to have to get back into doing this more often.The green pp is basic grey sultry collection the...
