Another post ...

already?? lol - two in two days is great for me! :)

Don't you just love when you create a layout & you just LOVE it! Last weekend I scrapped seven layouts and most of them I just LOVED! YAY!!

Here is one I created "double digits" for my son who just turned 10 yrs old in February. You can check out a complete supply list and directions on how to create the layout at Scrappin' Sports Stuff's blog.

Fishing!

Yesterday, this fishing layout was on the Scrappin' Sports & More blog ... I love this layout!

Last summer my son went fishing with his pal & his pal's dad ... my son LOVED fishing and being outside in the reservoir at the base of Pikes Peak, however my son did not care to actually eat the fish they caught!

This photo was perfect for SSM's new The Sport is ... Fishing paper! I combined it with Sports Head On Fishing paper and On the Edge Sports - Fishing paper, these papers went together so easy!





Scrappin' Sports & More supplies used:
Sports Head On - Racing paper #1329
Sports Head On - Fishing paper #1323
On the Edge Sports - Fishing paper #1309
The Sport is - Fishing paper #1342

Happy Valentine's Day!

and Happy Birthday to my mom! :)

On a scrappy note ...here is a pocket page using Karen Foster Vintage Valentine line, scrappers spool & coil brads. I cut on the patterend paper and popped it up with glue dots to tuck in my son's Valentine cards from last year. (I make a pocket page each year to save his school Valentine's)

Football Mascot - New Scrappin' Sports & More!

When I arrived at my son's football game this past fall and saw one of his teammate's dogs wearing a team jersey I just had to get a shot of him!!

This photo worked so well with so many of Scrappin' Sports & More's lines!! I used the brand new line "The Sport is ..." with "Classic Football" added in some "Down on the farm - dogs" and topped it off with some custom 'good dog' paper! I love mixing and matching lines like this!
