Designing for Triple the Sketch!!!!

I love Patter Cross's site Triple the Sketch!! Not just because she has the same blog header as me!!! But because she has a great group of talented ladies designing all kinds of projects from her sketches each week. And alot of the projects are faith based....great inspiration here!!!!
So any ways.... I am going to be joining her team of talented ladies....I am so excited and can't wait to get started!! I will be starting with the March sketches! So check out her site and go get inspired!!
I'm off to scrap today and spend more time getting my photos organized....the LOM class has started and I am on a roll organizing the last 5 years worth of photos!!!
Happy Scrapping!!!

Project 365

Here are my layouts for the past 3 weeks....all caught up!!!

Project 365

Sorry it's been so long without a post.....life has been busy!! I finally figured out how I wanted to do my project 365 pictures....I have been keeping up with taking a pic a day but now I need to catch up with the weekly layouts. I really wanted the pictures and the journaling to stand out...not alot of other elements to distract from that soooo I ended up making my own template and I am going to keep that for each layout...just changing some background swirls and maybe the colors. I also decided to put our memory verse for that week on the layout....So here are the first 2 weeks of January....




Week one is a one pager because it only had 4 days...so each week after will be 2 pages. I am hoping to scrap today. I spent the last few days cleaning out my scrap room so maybe I'll take some pics before I mess it up again and post those....

LOM starts this week and I can't wait to get started!! I am hoping that by taking this class I will be soooo organized that I will have more time to scrap!! I also just purchased some great actions from Mindys Actions I have been playing with them and really having fun!!

Digital Project 365

I have been taking my picture a day faithfully but had not decided how I was going to do my album for project 365. I know that I needed to make it easy and doable so I can keep up and get it done. I started thinking about doing it all digi and came across this great blog....Yeah! This is my solution. I am going to get these templates..designed just for project 365 and do a digi album in 12x12. I figure once a week I can make time to do that weeks pics and journaling. I was going to put together my own template but this is much easier!! I'm hoping to work on the last 2 weeks in the next few days and then I will post them!!

The Daily digi....

So I was browsing around this morning and found this neat new site....looks like a great one that I will be keeping an eye on.....and check out the digi files.. for just $5 you can sample a bunch of designers work and if you buy before Jan. 22 you will be eligible to win loads of extra prizes!!!
I have not been doing many digi pages lately with my hard drive crashing and having to re organize all my kits in acdsee.....note to self....I really need to do that!!! Maybe today since it is only -14 degrees out and a good day to sit by the woodstove and stay warm!!
I alos heard about this great site that has amazing daily offers of one item....check them out!
peachycheap.com......
Well I'm off to get a cup of tea...I think my pic for project 365 today will be the thermometer that says -14 on it!!! Stay Warm!!!

Project 365 and LOM

Well I might be asking for trouble but I decided to dive in to PROJECT 365.....a picture a day. I thought it would be easy because I take loads of pics every day.....but now I have to take a pic to represent that day and journal about it......I can do this!!! It will be so cool to have an album of our whole year...so I am making it a priority!!




Another priority this year is organization!!! I am tired of feeling behind....of not getting to scrap from my heart because I need to scrap this event or that first....well, no more! I am taking the Library of Memories class with Stacy Julian over at Big Picture Scrapbooks. It starts in February and I can't wait to get going!! Woo Hoo!! Organized and never behind....I can't wait!!
I was just over at Faith Sisters and if you are looking for some awesome challenges you must jump over there and check them out!!! There are so many I don't know what ones I want to do. I would do them all but just don't have the time.... So check them out!! Faith Sisters

A really fun weekend!!

Well, I have not had time to post this week....but last weekend I was able to get down to my good friends house for a crop!!! I had such fun...it's been ages since I went to a crop (so much easier to crop at home since all my stuff is here!!) But Ella has just as much wonderful "stuff" as I do and she loves to share so....off I went and here are the layouts I got done.







It was so good to chat and crop and just catch up......I stayed over night and Ella even made me breakfast the next morning.....Yum!! I was spoiled!!
