You Stinker!

I didn't think I was going to get this done on time this week.  I am not sure I am entirely happy with it.  I think it is missing something but can't quite figure out what it is.  These pictures are of my 10 month old getting into all the things he isn't supposed to.  I really love how the pictures turned out!

2QT 4WRDZ

What? What does that mean?  I had fun this week doing the button challenge for SOUS!  I used a sketch from May 2010 pagemaps and had this robot paper that I was waiting to use!  I was thinking of names for robots like R2D2 and this was the best I could come up with.  SO...meet 2QT (too cute) and 4WRDZ (for words).

The gears at the bottom of the page was a clipart image that I converted into an SVG!

You're going places baby!




This fabulous award was passed on to me by Sandy over at http://detailsbysandy.blogspot.com/  Thank you so much!  I guess I am supposed to think about where I am going to be in 10 years and pass this on to 10 other fabulous people.  Hmmm...where am I going to be in 10 years...I think things will probably be status quo (not very exciting for some I know).  Both my boys will be in school and thriving I hope.  I will probably still be working in the NICU and hopefully teaching by then!  I would love the do more travelling and let my boys experience other parts of this world! Since I am relatively new to having a blog, I don't really know 10 other bloggers so, I am passing this along to 7 other fabulous scrapbookers who are very talented and whose blogs I like to check out!  I don't really know any of these ladies so hope they don't mind that they are getting this award from a stranger but they are all very talented! In no particular order here they are:

Thanks again Sandy for the wonderful award!

Love 2 Learn!

It was another great sketch this week over at SOUS! Instead of flowers though I decided to scrap my son's first day of Pre-school.  There are lots of school related things on the page because the program has a lot of learning involved in it.  He has so much fun!  Here is the sketch!

Here is my take on it! I hate writing on my layouts because I don't like my writing but attempted it anyways on the left hand side hoping to achieve the chalked look but wished I had just cut the letters like on the right side. Oh well, it is there now! (may have to change it later!).

Wild About You!

This is my take on April 30th's SOUS.  The sketch is from page maps!



I know it seems like I only scrapping my youngest...which is true but only because I am trying to keep up with his first year before I have to go back to work!  These are his 7 month pictures.  As soon as I saw the sketch I knew what I was going to do...use my new Create-A-Critter cartridge!  I love this new cart.  Thanks for looking!
