With the Long Weekend, comes a Long Winded Post :)....

  It was a busy long week at this house. While nothing really happend, I was busy scrapping ;) I entered my first challange over at http://papercraftweekendchallenge.blogspot.com/ about using glitter. I love glitter and bling, so that was right up my alley. I also won an awesome Joe Joe the werewolf stamp from

http://athousandsheetsofpaper.blogspot.com/. Can't wait to get that in the mail!!! Hmmm, I need to figure out how to put the links in without using the full "blogspot.com" thing. Can any one help with that?

  Anyways, on to my scrapping. I was able to finish 8 LO's this weekend. Thats huge for me! I love my scraproom, but the tv I had in there died awhile ago (it came with the house, and it was old), and it was always so quiet in there, that I would just get bored. So...heehee, this weekend I stole the TV that was in my DD's room. She's 8, she doesn't need a TV in her room. Plus, it was mine anyway :) So with the background noise of Crimnal Minds, I was able to get lots done. Strange I know, most people say they can't have the TV on when they craft, but me, I can't not have something on.

 So this was the last page I finished up last night. I LOVE how this turned out. I believe most of the paper is CTMH. I used scraps, so its kinda hard to remember. I cut the COFFEE out using the Mickey Mouse font, and weilded the letters together with my gypsy. And I stamped the WILL  STUNT MY GROWTH using chocolate brown from CTMH. The coffee cup it cut at  4" and its from Wall Decor and More.

  I had a picture I wanted to use of the first Timmes coffee that I had to buy my DD who was 3 at the time (I know I know, how bad is that, but honestly, it was more milk then coffee), it just didnt go with My layout, so I added a picture flap from CTMH with the picture of her stirring her coffee, and added the journaling to the back. and hid the picture underneath. Worked out like a charm :)

  This one is my 2 page LO of last Halloween. Yup, I'm that far behind. Using the gypsy I made the people at 4' execpt the ladybug I mad at 3'. I cut them using the Paper Doll Dress-up. They didnt have a ZOMBIE guy, so I just cut the head out in white and used black ink to ink around the eyes abit. I used purple cardstock from CTMH to print out the title using the GYPSY font and just inked around it using black.

  Below is just one i quickly through together so that I could say it was done :) I dont know if you noticed, but all LO's had some glittery goodness on it. I used my FAVORITE glitter of all time. GLITTER RITZ. Love that stuff. I did use red stickles on the red ladybug girl though, as well as some silver on for the spots on the wings :) The cupcake below was cut at 4' and its from the Gypsy WANDERINGS. (came preloaded on the machine)



Day 5 Someone I love

 And lastly, the last pic was from the Photo a day for 30 Days challange. It was someone you love. Since I forgot this on til 10 pm, I took it of my son. I had intended to take it of ALL my kids, but since I forgot, and the girls were in bed, it was just Daylon. whew, done!! Good thing I didn't post ALL the LO's I did. I'd be here forever!! So, now off I go. Making lunch for the kidlets, and hopefully get some scrapping during naptime. Happy scrapping :)
