I'm leaving on a jet plane......

Tomorrow my dear hubby, son and I are flying to Calgary for the weekend.  My brother's daughter is getting married!  Our daughter, Jerica, is already there, doing lots of hair for the wedding.  This will be the first wedding of the grandchildren for my Dad..  I'm hoping and praying the weather will be good, my health will hold out and the newly married couple will live happily ever after!  We are coming home on Monday, and then it is time for me to get scrapping!  Maybe with some sweet wedding photos?

I'm Baaaccck!!!

WOW! Its been awhile! I think its been about 6 wks since I was last able to do any scrapbooking.  Its been a long haul with my health, but I am almost back to "normal"!  Good enough to start scrapping again!  What a relief!  I was getting scared that I would lose my mojo totally.  I am happy to anounce that s not the case!


While I was sick, I received a whole bunch of scrapping goodies.  I could only unpack them and look at them.  Now I have put some of them to use!  I received my May Swirlydoo Kit "La vie en Rose", and did the sketch challenge created by talented Beggahuna!  Here is my layout!


A Living Doll




In the photo is my Great Niece, Nila.  Doesn't she look just like a real doll? Here are some close ups!


I used lots of Stickles on the chandelier that I cut out with my Cricut E and Home Decor cartridge.




I sprayed some Smooch spritz on the flower, and the crystal/pearl flourish and feathers came with the kit!


Thanks for looking! It sure feels great to have my Scrap back on! Hope to have more for you in the near future!
