Another Wrestling Season...

My wrestler is back on the mat :) It's Wrestling season time again. Jess is now a Junior, and is going 125's this year...... He could go 130's, but he works hard to keep his weight down..... The kid is just too darn tall, with a shoe size of 12.....He loves the sport and makes us proud. Hoping & looking forward to seeing him at CIF.... I found the printed paper at Scrappin Good Times, and thought to throw in some Green Galore cardstock to match up with the school colors and his Lettermans jacket. I used my Coluzzle cutting system by Stampin' Up to make the round photos. Added a few silver star brads and some wrestling word stickers also from Scrappin Good Times. Take a visit, they have everything there..... HAPPY SCRAPPIN.... BEC ~

Trick or Treat !!

OK, SORRY.... A LITTLE LATE, BUT BELIEVE IT OR NOT, I JUST CREATED THIS PAGE A FEW DAYS AGO.... EVERY WEDNESDAY I VISIT A SCRAPBOOK STORE BY MY WORK, TO DO A MAKE & TAKE TAG..... MOST OF THE TIME, THEY ARE PRETTY COOL... ONCE I'M DONE WITH MY TAG, I WILL FIND SOME MATCHING PRINTED PAPER AND SOLID CARDSTOCK SO I CAN CREATE A LAYOUT USING MY TAG. I THOUGHT THESE COLORS WERE PRETTY DIFFERENT TO USE..... IF YOU DOUBLE CLICK ON THE PICTURE BELOW, YOU CAN SEE THE GHOSTLY BRADS I HAVE ON THE PAGE...
A LITTLE SOMETHING TO SHARE: ( YOU KNOW WHEN YOU'RE A SCRAPBOOKER WHEN ) : (1) YOU USUALLY HAVE A CAMERA WITH YOU. (2) YOU WONDER IF YOU'LL EVER GET CAUGHT UP. (3) YOU HAVE TOOLS YOUR HUSBAND DOESN'T KNOW HOW TO USE. (4) THE CLERKS IN YOUR LOCAL SCRAPBOOK STORE KNOW YOU BY NAME. AND (5) YOU CHECK ONLINE GALLERIES AND BLOGS MORE OFTEN THAN YOU CHECK THE NEWS. SO, TELL ME..... ARE YOU A TRUE SCRAPBOOKER ??? LOL....... THANKS FOR STOPPING BY.... HAPPY SCRAPPIN..... BEC ~

Old Guys Rule......

Hi there you all..... Sorry about the bad reflection on this layout.... I need to find myself a nice place in my home to take pics of my creations... Lighting has allot to do with how your pictures of your layouts come out. Here's a page I did of my dad's retirement... Yes it was a few years ago, and I'm barely doing a layout. Bad me........I found this really neat Old Guys Rule printed paper, and I really liked how I was able to match it up with a purple plum color cardstock. One of the pics has a backing of the same print paper. Can you tell? Using my small bitty letters, I stamped "life is good".... I also used Stampin' Ups rub-ons in white. The pack also had a saying, "Life is Good". Added a few antique colored brads, and wala... HAPPY SCRAPPIN.... BEC~

Girlfriends.....

Hello there Scrappers.... Here's a layout I created....I decided to go with a blue for my back layout to kinda go with the dress I wore, since all the other girls were in blacks. These are my girlfriends from work, the girls I spend most of my day with. We are a pretty close bunch I could say, and have been for 12 years now. I couldn't ask for a better bunch :) Thanks for stopping by, and HAPPY FRIDAY TO YOU.... Bec

Getting Creative....

Sorry... I was totally MIA... I just have been so busy with the holidays & family life, that I haven't got around to getting creative to post some projects. But I finally got some scrapbooking done, so I will be posting layouts throughout the next week. This is a little gift I packaged up and gave to my aunt Sylvia. It's a CD that I made and made my own cover, along with some acrylic stamps. For the bag topper and the cd cover, I used the Holiday Treasures Designer Paper from Stampin Up... The "Have a honey of a day card" was created using the "Just Buzzin By" stamp set that will be featured in the New Catalog coming soon. It's such a cute set, and easy to work with, meaning stamping and coloring in. Perfect for cards and scrap pages. I used my pastel chalks, which collected a little dust..... so it was nice to get them out again. Thanks for stopping by, and keep visiting, I promise I will post more fun stuff.... HAPPY STAMPIN.... BEC ~
