SUMMER TIME IS HERE

2011-05-27T09:44:00.001-07:00

haha My kids are out of school already for summer.. We have had a very unusually cool spring and our weather does not feel any where near summer yet. Usually we are in the 80’s to low 90’s right now. Today our high is forecasted to be only 73* I'm not complaining I love the cooler weather. Our summers are usually so long and HOT that this is really quite nice. My husband whom loves the heat is complaining about it.

Our garden is coming along nicely. This is the first summer at this house and we weren't sure where to plant a garden. Most of the yard that gets full sun is the front lawn. I wanted to take out the front lawn but being renters we just cant do that.

So we put a small one in on the side of the drive way. I was thrilled when I noticed the neighbors across the street had put one in the alley. Talk about using what you have.

This pic was taken on 5/18

It don’t look like much now but it is growing… Because I took this picture on 5/25 with the cell and you can see a difference esp. in that zucchini.. that stuff grew an amazing amount in a couple of days.

So I've been busy outdoors with planting stuff. I have 15 pumpkin plants that came up.. I hope they all live. Three are in this area and the rest on the side of the house..

I have made two pages..

this one came to be, because my sister said oh look at my little family of 2 how sad.. we were all taking group photos on Easter. I personally feel a family is a family no matter how many or how few. No matter if it’s a Single mom or dad, a Blended family, or if its two moms or two dads. Whatever you choose to live in, raise your kids in and be HAPPY in. That to me is a Family. So I did this page for her. I loved the pic from the moment I took it.

Then My cousin Marie.. AKA Bettie scrapbook Gave me a pile of Teresa Collins papers in the welcome home collection. I loved the page that had all the frames on it and was thinking how fun it would be to put pictures in the frames and place them as if they were on a wall. I don’t know why but that Idea popped in to my head and I couldn’t get it out. So this is what I came up with.

I dug out the most wall paper-ish looking Patterned Papers I could find. It came out sort of how I envisioned it. I really was wanting to use more color but everything I tried I didn't like. I guess I cant be brave and use color very often. Oh but I did do a colorful page a bit back I Haven't shared..

I wish I could do every page like that. BRIGHT Grab you and whack you in the head colors. But sometimes it just doesn’t feel right when you try. I want to TRY this more often.. More color and with summer on its way I hope I can get more bright colors on to pages.

Right now I prefer the antique and distressed look along with the colors that are the same. Those more brownish colors are safe to me lol..

So lets try to think out side of our little box..I'm going to TRY more color not just color but BRIGHT colors..

Oh and the above was not for any challenges at SB.com as you know challenges keep me working on pages and this month the cosmo cricket challenge was to fussy cut. http://www.scrapbook.com/forums/showtopic.php?tid/1557523/ Here is the link if you want to check it out. There are a couple more days to get things in. I hand cut the flowers and strawberry. SIGH cosmo is my very favorite paper line.. perhaps that’s why I don’t use the bright colors much seeing how they have nice vintage feeling colors.

anyways for those that read Hang in there Summer is Near and we all might be able to pull off some super bright pages. We will be up to our ears in Zucchini in a month or so..and I will prob. blog how I like to cook them lol

So look now, I'm not slacking!

2011-04-28T18:30:00.001-07:00

I remembered to post yet another post on this poor little blog. I had a wonderful Easter. We went to my cousins house and almost the whole family was there. It was so fun we had a Easter bonnet contest. This was my entry.

I made this up on Earth day. I used a old Pepsi box, A old dress that I had gotten bleach on at some point, a paper doily, rolled paper flowers, some pipe cleaners, and crape paper streamer. The pearls were treasure that was found in my vintage jar of buttons! The little bird was from dollar tree, as well as the chop sticks holding it on my head. Beacons 3 in 1 advanced craft glue held it all together and I was really happy with how easy the glue was to use on this sort of project.

Here is a better view you can see the fun paper flowers. I used Glimmer mist in Popsicle , pink bubble gum, and sunshine. I then misted the entire thing with a clear coat from Tattered Angels that was called bubbles.

This was really fun to make and I have a second one in my head that I want to make in the Steampunk style. GOSH do I have a million ideas for other hats.

There were loads of great hats to chose from. Here we all are in the line up I really loved the little girl who wanted a unicorn hat it was so cute. I loved the bunny ears and all the fun designs of the hats.

I ended up winning with my hat. Which was really fun and exciting.

The family get together was so fun. I got a decent family picture.

Though, my there were two cameras taking photos and we all looked at different ones lol

This next picture I can not wait to scrap! My sweet Niece with her ‘stache necklace and my little hat is just too cute!

Speaking of Scrapbooking… I have a few pages to share.

I did a page for the Cosmo cricket challenge over at scrapbook.com.. I'm planty there if you want to say HI I used loads of glimmer mist and have been really into crape paper streamers.. as you who follow know.. The twist was to use two different alphas in your title.

I've really been rocking the challenges to get some pages done. I hate when I don’t make pages so I love throwing myself into challenges over at Scrapbook.com

this one was for the Technique Challenge – April Use stamping masking and stitching on your page..

For a while my son loved to make this face in every photo… his MySpace face. I think we all ended up doing it at least once for a photo.

Ok and the last page I have to share today.. I have had this bo bunny paper laying around for a while. It was very intimidating and I tried many times to use it. I finally used it with a photo of my youngest holding a worm from the garden.

scrap on good friends….

I believe in myself… I WILL update again. Hopefully I can keep rocking out the layouts as well..

Determined to fix this…

2011-04-18T12:56:00.001-07:00

Ahh as we all know I slack..so forget about why… we all know why. But I want to keep my blog I truly do..

I've been trying really hard to keep working on pages. When I'm not making pages I feel sad inside.

The thought to quit making pages came to mind not long ago. I just don’t have money for supplies. I have run through many of my hoarded papers. In fact the luxury of buying anything is quite far fetched at this point. I mean really if I have 20 bucks I need to buy groceries.

I have gotten quite creative in my pages lately. Using less than desirable papers. The backs of Christmas papers that can pass for non Christmas papers. I went to the Thrift store and bought a lovely hymn book.. Now I may be going to hell for this but I have been using the pages from it on many of my layouts. I love music note paper and it was .25 for the book. Here is one on my tattoo page. I try to find the song title that sort of goes with the feeling of the page which is kind of fun.

I made this cute little Easter plaque for my sister. I had bought a cheesy romance novel (.25) with lovely yellowing of the pages. I know its not the best thing to tear up books but really it was a no great loss…. some no name author and a really bad romance novel. But look at that great flower. Thankfully my LSS has a die cut room and I was able to cut out a bunch of shapes with the die cuts.

A second Easter plaque I made for my mother. See the music paper… I also cut out the birdcage and eggs form vintage book page I found online. Luckily I bought a very large ink refill kit on eBay a while back. I can print all sorts of fun stuff to use on my pages. Like the vintage post cards.

Here is a Easter page the BG paper is actually a Christmas paper. this was for a button challenge over at Scrapbook.com you had to use at least 35 buttons or go crazy for 75 I made that little button tree which held 45 but decided to keep adding and go for the 75.

This was the last time my kids were dressed nice for Easter. Since then my husband lost his “good” job and my life has gone down hill ever since. But we try to keep the good.

My kids really didn’t like the new stuff anyway. The much more preferred to have candy and hunt eggs anyways. So the past couple years that is all we have focused on. Making the fun family memories… that once they are adults they wont really care or remember if we were poor. They got candy and colored eggs to hunt anyway.

So I will close this entry with the great HOPE of updating yet again ..and it not being MONTHS away . I know that this week we will be coloring eggs… I would like to share that process with you as well. Think of all fun pages the photos of egg coloring will make.

Keep creating it’s good for the heart and soul XOXO

NO apologies…

2011-01-11T12:36:00.001-08:00

It has already been established.. I'm a total slacker with this blog.. I love the idea of a blog but really Facebook sort of does it all for me.

Really the holidays stress me out. I get over whelmed and drawn out too thin.

So many things have changed. I moved across town.. I am now in a older home.. No longer in a small 2 bd apt. which is really exciting. I have a HUGE yard.. My Teen has his OWN room.. But moving was stressful.. so much work involved with it. I had been in my apt for 8 years. That’s a long time and we had a lot of crap. I moved in here just before Thanksgiving. It was so hard to go to my moms house everyday and cook knowing I had so much to do at home. We are still living in boxes. We had Christmas in our own home for the first time. That apt was far too small for a tree and what not so this year the kids woke up to their own tree that Santa brought gifts to.

I have this little breakfast nook in my home that I have a vision for. I want to make it my scrap area!! My vision though can’t seem to come together.

I need a table and some sort of shelves.

ALSO something I did not know about old homes.. We have a seriously difficult moisture problem. The walls are Cinderblock and while its nice and toasty inside the cold of the outside causes condensation on the walls that are outside walls. We have learned quickly to keep airflow which is kind of hard when I’m cold and do not want a fan blowing. I learned the hard way about the mold.. Nothing can be up against the walls.. I had a box of scrap stuff and my huge rolling tote up against the wall. BAD idea. The smaller totes were able o go in to the washer.. The large roller Not so much.

Not a pretty sight there was some paper that had to be thrown out, I have put the tote outside I don’t know if I can even clean it seeing how its black and bleach would ruin it anyways.

So I haven't had much time to create lately I've been battling mold, stress, and depression. Those are my reasons for neglecting this poor blog. Perhaps I will once again find the time. I have to keep busy; and keep the depression I fight with daily at bay.

I feel better when I create, I feel better when I shop, I feel better when I have some awesome finds.. Like buttons!

TWO awesome jars of vintage buttons. I also have this really cool pink tray thingy to put them in.

Yes I love me some vintage buttons <3

and I will close with the only page I've made since my last post

This is for the Cosmo Cricket Challenge over at Scrapbook.com

Halloween is always so fun to scrap.

2010-10-28T15:35:00.001-07:00

I wanted to post his page up for http://www.paperissues.blogspot.com/ I looked at all the other lovely projects and would like to post mine as well. I swear I am always blown away by the talent some people have.

Michaels craft store had this awesome line of paper this year called

Recollections RAVENHEAD MANOR it is just awesome and actually goes well with the My minds eye Haunted line. I was all over these two lines this year. I also saw a sweet layout at scrapbook.com by Penny lane..it is here

http://www.scrapbook.com/galleries/527639/view/2945105/-1/1.html I really loved how she used the little banner and totally knew I had to do it with crape paper. Thank you so much PennyLane for an awesome Idea…

This photo was a bit blurry as it was my old camera nearing the end of its life. But I was so in love with it, and it was a moment that really could not have been recreated.

So any way Thank you for looking

I am such a slacker!

2010-10-28T14:37:00.000-07:00

I swear I am the biggest blog slacker in the world! So I will try yet again to update this poor thing like normal humans do.

so here it is 2 days before Halloween. I have made many projects and pages but have not posted them and I feel it should be done right now.

I always scrap last years photos this year.. if that makes since..

so here we have Scott with his booty from Halloween night..

Melanie and Tiff carving pumpkins.. I love the haunted line from My minds eye. It has a awesome paper bag feel and color to it.

This is Bud Bud last year. He is so funny he loves to go door to door and look inside peoples homes.

Markies big bar from Halloween night

I have this odd way of making many little hanger things.. Luckily my sister is more than happy to snap them up for her apt.

as you can see I love crape paper. It gives such a fun touch and if you are careful you can use glimmer mist on it to add sparkle.

Up next is a fun sugar skull I made. Looking back I know I could have done better but at the time I was not home so I had to make due with what I had in my scrap bag.

so yet again I promise to keep up my blog.. Perhaps it will be easier now that my hubby has a new job. I also hope to be moving from this apt soon. Keep your fingers crossed we need more room.

Back into the swing of things!

My computer hard drive crashed. It was a dark day in the Baccus House hold. It took a week to get the computer fixed and I lost all of my links and favorites.. :( I'm slowly getting back to my normal on-line routine.

Today is Mothers day and I would LOVE to wish all the Moms that visit a very warm holiday. I know today will be the best for all of you.

The past few weeks I made quite a few pages that I will share with you..

This past weekend was full of fun. We had a BBQ at the park with my SIL it was just a perfect day. Nothing beats being outside and cooking over an open flame. :)

So that's about it for today I'm going to enjoy the rest of my Mothers day and DO NOTHING :)

Duct tape flowers and hardware store masking.

2010-03-05T08:56:00.001-08:00

Ok so when I made the blue moon page in the last post I took some pics along the way.

I first went and rifled through my husbands tool box. I found all sorts of fun stuff to use.

One of them was a Ceiling light mount plate..it was a neat circle with some lines and screw holes in them.

I got some washers in various sizes

a Rubber ‘O’ ring

Duct tape

Electrical tape which just happened to be a violet color.

I had a old Priority mailer from the post office and tore that sucker up as my base.

I laid out my washers and what not in a nice pattern. and misted them up with Graphite, and riptide glimmer mists.

then waited for it to dry up….

awesome yeah? who needs to buy masks anyway when you can make them from junk in your hubbys tool box…

So duct tape? I had to decide how to use it. Well I've been on this major flower kick lately. Cousin showed me how to make these cute little paper or felt flowers and I thought YES so doing this with duct tape..

So first we need to make a sheet of tape.. its the basic idea for making nearly anything out of duct tape. you have to lay out your tape sticky sides together.

See that glass mat I use its pretty vital.. If you have like a plastic table or something that would be fine too but the duct tape can really hurt your “wood” it is pretty sticky and I do not want to risk pulling up the veneer on this desk.

so you start with a strip of tape and lay it sticky side up:

Next you take another strip of tape (sticky side down) and lay it over half of the sticky side up tape.. you will have something like this:

Ok now do that again on the other sticky side…sorta out of focus..

Ok then peel off your tape and flip it over. Fold up the sticky sides to cover the middle of the tape..

so you end up with something like this.

Ok so now you have a strip of duct tape:

Next cut off a end to cut out a circle Cousin showed me this. you cut a square and then just round it out to a circle. It works pretty good and really it doesn't have to be exact.

Ok now cut a spiral out of that circle..leave a good sized tag in the center you will need that for glue later..

Ok now we have to roll the flowers. Best to use like tweezerbees you do not have to hold pressure on them to keep them closed. start at the corner on the outside of the circle and twist twist it around till you get to your tag..

I hold mine like this then slather some 3in1 glue on the spiral of the flower. pop down my tab to cover and hold it there

I then yank out my tweezers cuz the sticky part of the tape kind of holds it a bit. I bet you could stick glitter on there and have it hold pretty good..

So there you go a Duct tape flower. I only had plain duct tape but I have seen it in all sorts of awesome colors. Can you guess what's on my shopping list? So I did the excact same thing for the electrical tape flowers..

I covered my washers in a single crochet. If you can crochet its really quick. Just use the center of the washer.. I really like how they look covered.

SO yeah that's pretty much it. OH yea I did have to tear my cardboard down a bit mroe as it would not fit into the page protector I wish I'd had done that at the very start.. But I had to add some purplish pink glimmer mist because I found the electrical tape later and really wanted that color pop. all in all Im pretty happy with this layout and you can bet there will be more duct tape roses in my layouts to come :)

Ok so in a recap I just want you all to know that scrapbook supplies are not limited to he Scrapbook store. I really want to try some flowers made out of screen material, fabric and anything else I can cut in a spiral.

All day at the scrap store what could be better?

2010-03-03T11:16:00.001-08:00

SO this week Im helping out at my LSS. Its nothing special but I do get to spend time in the shop and be out of the house. In fact I write from the shop right now. WHEEEE!

I had planed on doing a blog post with some tutorals but alas.. my pictures are not on this computer lol. anyway I will post some news and stuff.

The new mojo is up the prompt is to use a line from The Wizard of Oz. I used "How do you like them apples" Which I'm sure the scarecrow said when the trees threw the apples tho I didn't go and re-watch themove to make sure so who knows maybe I made it up in my head.

Easy as apple pie

Scrapbook.com

Thats my page.

I also made a page using no Patterend paper and got sort of wild and made duct tape and electrition tape flowers ha! imagine that..

6 year Val-a-versary
by Planty
Scrapbook.com

The prompt over at Bluemoon scrapbooing was to use stuff from a hardware store. I kind of got carried away.. BUT I really like the tape flowers.. I think Im going to make more with the awesome colors fo duct tape they have. I used washers and all sorts of hard ware stuff as masks it was kind of fun. Then for giggles I crocheted around a couple of washers. I love doing that something so simple looks so nice. In fact last year I made necklace out of covered washers.

I Did not bring my camera today but I think I want to take a few pics of my week here in the Scrap store. It would make a fun mini-book.. I mean really its not like I get out to do much anyway so I may as well document this. Ok Folks maybe I should stop playing on the computer and go straighten racks or paper..

Gosh I’m such a slacker!

2010-02-28T10:27:00.001-08:00

has it really been this long since I made a Blog post? I’ve got to stop doing that.

OK so Over at my LSS I entered a layout contest. You only had to use paper they sell in the store. I'm telling you they have a TON of papers.

Well guess what? I totally won!!!

Cosmo cricket helped me to win! I won a 50 dollar gift cert. Which I spent yesterday and got the new Cosmo Cricket Material girl and Garden Variety along with tiny type alphas.. I have yet to break into them, but I sooo cannot wait!

Ok so for my Valentine/Anniversary (or Val-a-versary as I call it…)gift I got a new camera. A Canon XS20! Its no Rebel but after many hours of research I feel its the right camera for me. I hardly could ever afford to buy the fab lenses I would so desperately want with the rebel. At least with my lower end cam I can use the awesome zoom it comes with and be happy. It by no means will compete with the higher end cams with those type of lenses, but I will be happy to have a bit of both worlds in the zoom and the macro..

here are a few shots I've gotten that I like as I learn the camera

a birdie in my tree

At the A&W in Modesto..

The moon

Ok so now here is a page I made at the Midnight crop last week.

I adore those pictures of Markie. We went to Columbia Ca and had a super nice day It was the first super sunny day in a few weeks so we took advantage.. That and I got my camera the night before so woohoo for pictures.

ok so that was a lovely day. Anyway this poor blog post is getting long if I would just update more than once per month it would not be so bad.

I also got some new glimmer mist but I’ll save that I guess…

Can I get a little LOVE

2010-01-27T10:03:00.001-08:00

OH how I adore Valentines day. One reason is because I can finally use some pink in a layout. I adore pink and flowers but having 3 boys means I can not use it that often.

OH but when I can I DO it up right.

This one is for Valentines this year and scrap mojo.. for the month of Feb.. shh don't tell cousin I'm posting early.

Anyway this is The Little Yellow bicycle line. Very cute papers and of course THICKERS how can you not love those?

I really liked that line a lot this year so I decided to do a LOVE banner with it. I was super shocked I did it at the last Midnight crop at my LSS.

I got those big chipboard letters at my LSS; I just love them.

Then I was thinking of those heart candies that I always buy.. and thought I would make this.

Hopefully I will make more lovely Valentine stuff and when the mojo is posted Ill put that up with the details.

Christmas Is over and now things can get back to normal!

2009-12-27T10:34:00.001-08:00

I really do not know where I got this crazy idea that Christmas has to be perfect. I try so very hard to make things perfect. In my head I’m recreating what I remember the holidays were like. BUT am I recreating MY holidays of past? I really don't think so anymore. I think I really am trying to recreate the crap I saw on T.V. all those lovely holiday specials with perfect cookies, trees, and carolers sipping hot coco.

My quest to make a perfect Christmas started getting really out of hand the week before Christmas.

I used to bust my ass making cut out gingerbread and sugar cookies that we would decorate just so.. this year there was NOT a single cut out cookie to be had. I was beating myself up over this. This is what my gingerbread cookies looked like this year.

My fatal flaw for the cookies this year was the fact that I simply had to over do it. In an attempt to make up for the lack of shape and frosting I made far too many cookies.

yeah that was just ONE freaking platter ! Towards the end I sort of went nuts and started to see things. creepy things..

7 hours of cookie making and I lost it! the cookies were in shock I guess. lol

My sister bought a gingerbread sleigh set for the kids to decorate and they blew through that in about 10 minutes. Ate off all the candies and left the carcass to rot.

This picture tells the true story of the gingerbread sleighs..

I guess I should not complain having to round the kids up and pull them in to the house kicking and yelling, just to do the stupid things. The entire time was spent telling them to quit eating the candies, licking frosting and throwing things. BUT as it all fades into memory… I hope the memory of the frustration passes and all that's left is something good.

I also spent 5 hours wrapping presents on Christmas eve. 5 freaking hours! Its partly my fault. I really love the presents to be wrapped so pretty. In my head they all need to look like this at their worst. WHY do I do this to myself?

Christmas Moring the kids blew through the presents in 10 minutes. There were land speed records set! I couldn't snap pictures fast enough!

NOT one kid commented on how lovely they gifts were wrapped. SIGH

So anyways, as Christmas 2009 fades in to memory, I truly hope at some point my kids look back and are thankful for the fact I run myself ragged to make it perfect..With any luck they will be doing it to themselves when they have kids. Then I can sit back and laugh. As the cookies mock them!

Time to bust out he Holiday movies

2009-12-10T10:16:00.001-08:00

My family has a small group of movies we watch every year. A Christmas Story,

National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation

I so adore the above two. I have to watch them at a minimum of two times each!

We also love to watch

Jingle all the way , Elf, and The Polar Express,

I have the kids watch Rudolph and all that fun stuff on TV as well. There is nothing more fun than these movies on the tube and baking cookies in the kitchen. AHHH that's what Memories are made of,… are they not?

The TARP Christmas party was a blast as usual. This year Mark and Landon were best buddies. It was so cute.

ahh so fun all the kids sat on Santa's lap an there was not one tear.

Markie and Landon were getting down to the live music it was just the best! Those two were having such fun.

ahh such fun was had by all :D I'm so thankful we get to share this with my Dad and his AA group. It really is something I look forward to every year.

So this next week will be full of cookies and movies I can not wait.

Christmas, Christmas, Time is Here…

2009-12-01T09:19:00.001-08:00

Well, its quickly moving in on us. I feel really in the spirit this year. All the Holiday lights are up. I had that started before Thanksgiving. Here is a Cell phone picture from the corner. We live in a town home but have quite a bit to decorate.

Here is the newest addition to the lights Scotty picked it out. Big lots 25.00 woo hoo!

Sorry for the cell pictures but It was on me at the time.

This Sat the 5th is the TARP Christmas party! EEEK I can not wait. TARP is my Dads AA group and every year they throw a Huge Christmas party. It’s so fun .

I made a few little things for around the house but have not had a lot of time to scrap.

Cousin and I made these cute little jars. She found the idea here…

http://wendyrago.typepad.com/bad_girls/2009/11/a-home-for-the-holidays.html

But we decided to kick it up a notch and light it. I bought a drill bit for glass and we had at it. Its much more tough to drill thru glass than one would think but It was really worth it when you see it light up.

I showed my husband and he tells me “Hmm that's a waste of a really good pickle jar.” Which really made my blood boil. I told him he was quite rude!

But later when my Middle son, Scott came home he stopped in his tracks right through the door and Gasped “MOM that's the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen!” Needless to say that made my day.

OOh and my oldest son David, has wood shop. He made this and its just perfect for my Glimmer Mist EEK I was so happy when he gave it to me.

I did manage to make two door cones.. that’s what I call them anyway. I used the Cosmo Jolly by Golly line. I thought these would be fun to place on neighbors doors. HA in a perfect world.. my neighbors would prob. think it was poison or something.

I had a super fab. Thanksgiving. Loved being with family and having great food. It was really nice this year. I hope this month goes smoothly for everyone I know and love. It can get hectic this time of year.

Loads of LOVE for Cosmo cricket..

2009-11-05T13:49:00.001-08:00

I got a package in the mail. My new Cosmo Cricket Nutmeg and Jolly By Golly lines. OOOOOH once again Cosmo makes my heart go pitter patter!

I jumped right in with the Nutmeg line..Making these two projects.

and this goofy turkey card. The Idea jumped in to my head after looking on Martha's site. She had done a Christmas ornament using paper and glitter.. She coned the paper just like that. I thought “HMM could it be a turkey if I try hard enough ?”

Well i think it looks like a turkey.

I want to start making Holiday stuff so bad! I have that jolly by golly line sitting there.. BUT I also want to give Thanksgiving its day . I may just have to bust out last years holiday pics much sooner than I normally do..

Ok so that's it for now. Oh I did use the alcohol inks to color a Christmas tree ball. These are cheap-o Dollar tree balls I’ve had up in the cupboard since last year. Just thought I would give it a try. I'm happy with the results. THO just a word of caution: The Blending solution will eat the paint off the outside of the ball if you use too much LOL

Ok so I hope you like what I’ve posted. :D Keep on creating !

Moving on in to November..

2009-11-02T07:59:00.001-08:00

Man time flies! I can not believe it is November already. October was just a blink of an eye. We had fun with Halloween and all the decorations and pumpkin patches. But as all that fades away into memory and scrapbook pages we march on..

It is now time for Thanksgiving. So many people rush to get their Christmas stuff bought and up. BUT not me. I enjoy fall far too much to let it go at Halloween.. I want to enjoy some more easy going days before the mad rush of Christmas.

My family does Thanksgiving up right! We do the big Norman Rockwell type of dinner. Pumpkin, pecan, apple, and Cherry pies are made with love all from scratch. My mom makes a KILLER cheese cake as well. ITs all just too much fun to rush by on our way to Christmas. I also use this time to make hats.. I enjoy Crochet which I always seem to want to do in the fall time. I’ve been a hat making mama!

Jack was made for Cousin. It’s sad because she asked for him a year ago.. I made one up but it was fit for a Giant! So finally I got this one done for her and she LOVES it!

I have a few more hats in the work; that I promised people and I do not want to take a whole year to get them their hats LOL..

Now don't get me wrong .. I cant wait for the day after Thanksgiving.. while everyone else is out shopping I put up my decorations. We have thousands of small lights that we cover every inch of our trees and yard with. For living in a town home we do a pretty awesome display.

So any way on to scrappy stuff..

Mojo 39 Is up! click here to see Mojo “We all need therapy...I mean admit it! It may not be Dr.Phil therapy but we all have a little in our life. I prefer the shopping kind or the creating kind but we all have different views on what helps us let go of the bad and usher in the good. Now is your chance to share what it is YOU do to de-stress.”

also use paint in some way. I'm telling you the Mojo girls rocked this one big time!

Here is mine:

Come over and play with us this month .

I’m also stalking my letter carrier.. Today or tomorrow I should be getting my new Cosmo!! I ordered the Nutmeg line and Jolly by Golly..I so cant not wait to get these. I want to make some fall wall plaques with the Nutmeg line I made some fun Halloween ones but they are already put away with the fog machine and cauldron..SIGH

Ok so that's it for now .. I will post up some Nutmeg goodies as soon as I made them. :D

Fall fun!

2009-10-06T12:12:00.001-07:00

I just cant say it enough.. I LOVE this time of year! Took the kids to the regular pumpkin patch last Sunday. SUCH fun was had. I love to see the kids run and play. Its great to just enjoy the season.

I took lots of pictures for my scrapbook pages :D

First off I want to share this sweet picture. Moms Dog Daisy had puppies and this one was a runt.. Daisy kept pushing him away and burying him in the blankets. Which is not good news if you know dogs. I had found him away from the others and put him in my bra to keep him warm. Sadly Nature is not always fair and Doggy mommies know best this one did not make it. It is a sad fact of nature and sometimes our hearts get in the way.

This is one of the Sisters to that little guy up there. As you can see she is a much larger rolly polly puppy.

Ok enough with the sad news.. 6 females are doing just fine and I will have more pictures up soon..

I also went to my cousins oldest sons birthday party It was a lot of fun.. I always love to get the kids together.

I didn’t really get many good pictures but the kids had fun none the less.

I also pulled out my Halloween stuff for decorating :D Which I did not take photos of yet.

Well I got this one.. Markie does NOT like the decorations LOL

On to the pumpkin patch:

Tiff and I

Ok that is it for now NO scrappy goodness as of yet. I have two pages in the works.

HHHHHHHHHHHHH cool days

2009-10-02T10:27:00.001-07:00

Well it FINALLY happened! Our weather cooled down.. WOOHOOOOO!

I'm being a bit of a slacker here its Oct. 2nd and I have NOT gone to a pumpkin patch yet..*gasp* something must be wrong with me.

Well not to worry the past few weeks I've been lurking the pumpkin carving sites.. My very favorite is Zombie Pumpkins http://www.zombiepumpkins.com/

I can’t wait to get my hands on my first pumpkin of the season.. I will be doing that soon.. VERY soon.

Till then here are some layouts I've done:

My pages lately have favored my youngest son. But last year Halloween was new to him. the Pumpkins and all that stuff was fresh and new in his eyes. I find joy in that.

I also made this at the Midnight Crop in Oakdale. I didn't do much else but sit there and make these LOL

Doesn't the Cosmo Cricket make these little suckers awesome?

Ok that's it for now. I can’t wait for Sat. Its cousins oldest sons birthday and I love getting the kids together. Its going to be fun!

OH and those little coffins? well I need to make one a tad bigger for my camera :( My trusty Canon S2IS has kicked the bucket.. I'm heart broken.. Nothing worse could happen to me in the fall time. I take hundreds of pictures.. BUT luckily my sweet son has allowed me to use his camera.. Its still a canon a Power shot A470.. so my computer programs and stuff still work..It has bigger mega pixels than my old one but far less zoom :( Still its a pretty good camera and I cant bitch Its a camera after all I don't have to be with out during this fab. time of year

Halloween is on the Horizon

2009-09-23T15:27:00.001-07:00

Yes, yes, I know its not the 1st yet but I really can’t help myself.

I have had some fun the past few weeks. TRYING to get into fall. Even tho the first day of fall was almost 100* :(

I made a super cute BOO banner. Cousin did a class at her LSS in Stockton. I'm glad I went it was super fun.

Look at all that Yummy goodness! The new Basic Grey there is glimmer mist and cute little skull beads! It was so much fun. I think Cousin has a few kits in her Etsy so hit her up if you love it as much as I do.

I also saw a super cute template on Martha’s site. Its for a little coffin candy box.. I really like it I'm pretty happy at how it came out and I think I'm going to make up a few for a party.. I could put treats and stuff in them I guess.. I hate that I make cute stuff and don't have a use for it.. Its a bit lop sided but Eh, its for Halloween so who cares…

So there you have it some fun stuff.. I need to get my kids out to the pumpkin patch for some pictures. I cant wait for the weather to cool down!

Some info on the fall Glimmer mist colors

2009-09-17T18:00:00.001-07:00

Ok if you are like me then you were wondering what the difference was between the new fall glimmer mist colors of.. Pumpkin Pie, and Jack-o- Lantern, Raven, and Cinder and just what does Haunted shadows look like? I have the Blog post for you!

Ok I first bought some of the fall colors the day they were out. I got Carmel apple, Cinder, Pumpkin pie, and Indian corn. I like cinder and Pumpkin pie but then found that Tattered Angels made a Halloween stencil pack.. Those colors were Haunted shadows, Jack-o-lantern, and Raven..

I wrote to Tattered angels asking what the difference was.. and NEVER got a reply.. I wanted to know if it was just slight change or heck the same colors in but different names..

so here we go Ill tell you what I see.

Haunted shadows is a purplish color with gold or coppery glimmer.

Indian corn is a red plum color..with a coppery shimmer

Cinder is Black with a bluish purple shimmer

Raven is I would say is a Deep blue, navy even.. with a bright purple glimmer

Jack O Lantern is Warm orange with kind of a green copper shimmer

Pumpkin Pie is a bit more orange with a copper shimmer

Carmel apple is a tan color with a warm copper shimmer.

Carmel apple shimmer

Cinder shimmer

Indian corn shimmer

pumpkin pie shimmer

Raven Shimmer

haunted shadows shimmer

jack-o-lantern shimmer

so there you go, some of the new fall colors for you to compare. My biggest complaint with Tattered angels is of the sample colors of their products. I also do not like how they do not tell you the color of the shimmer. I know its hard to photograph this stuff. But that is all the more reason to post the colors of the shimmer..

But I'm kind of a nerd that way .

I hope I can help others anyway

have a scrappy day :)

OMG I’m Scared to death

2009-09-15T18:38:00.001-07:00

In the morning I'm going to go be on Good Day Sacramento. I entered a Pizza building contest .. I made it to the top 5!! I have to get up at 3am to drive to the station and I will make my pizza on air. Then the pizzas of the top 5 will be voted on. The winner will receive free pizza for a year! AND their pizza will be put on the menu at Papa Murphy's all over

SOO Ill let you all know how it goes once its done and over with I'm so so glad that cousin is going along for the ride. She is going to be there for me I'm so happy for that

On to scrappy news. I've been busy actually getting pages done I went to Stockton with Cousin for a midnight crop. I got two done there :

I also made these I cant remember when but I got them done

as you can see I'm really in a fall mood

I have on order the Glimmer mist Halloween kit that comes with the kitty screen and Halloween colors called raven, haunted shadows, and jack o lantern. I also ordered marshmallow. I cannot wait for these to get here! Ill post up the differences on here with picture as to the difference in shade and glimmer.

Ok Ill post back on Thursday what happened on LIVE TV eeeekkk ! My cousin is bringing her camera so I hope she can take a few pics.

Summer Drags on.. and ON and ON

2009-07-27T11:40:00.001-07:00

I'm So done with summer! I always get this way right after my birthday. I'm ready for fall! COMMON fall! I went to Michaels on the 3rd of July and saw Halloween stuff being put out! Nothing makes me happier than seeing that Halloween/fall stuff.

I don't mind summer, so much, but It does drag on around here. Heck, in October we go to the Pumpkin patches in Shorts.

So in my desire for cooler days and Fall color I bring you The Fall ‘09 Glimmer mist line up…..

I have Carmel apple, Indian corn, Pumpkin Pie, and cinder coming in a few days! Once I have it I will spray it and post pictures. If you are like me then you are bothered by the fact that Tattered Angels don't tell you the color of the glimmer in the bottle.. That's important to me!! I don't want to speculate because I’ll get my hopes up and be very upset if the glimmer don't live up to my hopes . So for now Ill wait but it should be here soon.

I also read on their site that they are putting out a WHITE for Winter. OH the joy of that!! I have my hopes set high for that one.

Summer has kept me busy

2009-06-30T16:59:00.001-07:00

I know I haven't done a damn thing when it comes to posting or scrapbooking..

I have been enjoying summer and as I type this I'm getting ready to to retrieve my hubby from San Diego. I'm Excited as all get out!.

So The past month has been full of river trips and BBQs what more can you ask for in a summer?

I simply adore the river. These were Taken at Mc. Henry ave Rec area.

We got a new member of our family. A kitty. Scott had been begging for a kitten so I caved when I saw this guy. Yet to be named but I like Timmy so far.

So I'm hoping to get my ass moving on some pages after my Trip.. wish me luck

I’ve been bad

2009-05-18T13:33:00.001-07:00

So being away from my hubby has finally gotten to me enough that I had to go visit him. I went on a 8 hour drive to see him, Hug him and kiss him.. I drove 8 hours for a BOOTY call LOL

It was worth it!

I feel bad that I left my three kids with my mom and dad. EVEN worse my sister rode with me… so mom and dad had to keep Melanie too.

I'm happy that I had her go with me that drive is really really long.

During the day Tiff and I were free to do what we wanted. My hubby couldn't get time off during the days. I was sad but knew that might be a problem.

We went to the aquarium

clowning around!

Went to the beach and walked around a bit. i have this strange issue with noticing the colors of sand. This one was black-ish which was cool Never seen one like that personally

That was the first day…

The second day we went to the Natural History museum..

They had the awesome exhibit called Body world.. OMG its amazing and you cant take pics but here is a link so you can see what it is..

http://www.bodyworlds.com/en.html

If you Ever get a chance to see San Diego.. GO!! It was amazing I was surprised at how pretty everything was. I never once saw graffiti which amazed me to no end in a City so large. The museums are all in a place called BALBOA PARK its amazing! There are tons of things to do there. More piccys here..

View Full Album

I really fell in love with that area. I didn't get to se as much as I wanted to but cant wait to go back in July and pick up my husband! We are going to take a few days to do fun stuff as a family then.

The trip home was bitter sweet.. I was happy to get home to my kids; but so, so heart broken that I didn't get to bring my husband home. These past few months have been very hard and I couldn't stand it any longer I had to see him. I broke down crying that I didn't take ONE picture of us together. I was Heart broke at the thought. I miss him even more now that I got to see him. Im really thinking of packing everything up and putting it in storage to go live with him till July. I know July is close but It hurts so badly!

Happy Cinco de Mayo

2009-05-05T08:34:00.001-07:00

WOOHOO its time to drink a beer! Well in my neighborhood anyway.. I decided for Mojo 34 “Cinco de mayo inspired..If you had a day to call your own and party like a rock star what would it be and what would u do?..2nd Use cinco de may decorations as inspiration”

Now I was drawing a total blank on something I would make up for my own.. there are already so many parties and holidays that I love to celebrate. So I just made stuff for this one.

The beer cap bracelet was sort of a idea that jumped into my head. It didn't come out exactly as I pictured it in my head but then again nothing ever does..

I think Ill try again with a different bracelet design.

the card I gave to a girl friend up the street. I knew she had a pretty good since of humor, so I wasn't worried she would get offended with the little hat there … actually it was quite a hit. I still feel like this card needed something but I really couldn't come up with what and ran out of time so it was was given as is..

I haven't done much of anything lately I've been in a total funk for some reason. I have been bad on my diet not following weight watchers points and stuff. I don't know why but I'm being silly about it all. I know I want to do the program but some times I get so childish over food. I really think food is the toughest addiction to kick.

SO that's about it for me today :) have a good day and drink a beer or two

Mojo number 33..

2009-04-20T21:46:00.001-07:00

I really love what the girls put out this month. I really think everyone did such a lovely job.

Come on over and play with us this time around http://www.scrapmojo.blogspot.com/

Mojo Number 32!!

2009-04-05T09:29:00.001-07:00

My first one eeekkkk It is to scrap you imaginary friend or make one up. And use a animal cracker box as inspiration. Now I never had an imaginary friend, but I do watch that cute cartoon with my kids called Fosters home for imaginary friends. I LOVE the cute friends on that show. So I thought hmmmm if I could add a friend what would it be?

NINJA squirrels! LOL I have this soft spot for squirrels. Lets face it they are CUTE, they are FUNNY and in a ninja costume they would kick butt!

Go here to play! Scrap Mojo The mojo girls did such a awesome job! I just feel like I'm not worthy to even be a part of them. Here is my take on it.

Well Good luck if you go over and try it out!

OOH excitement

I made a Yellow and Blue Button necklace… and I started this page that I finished today…

While I was finishing that page I made another page that I've had the idea for in my head a while now…I was cracking up when Scott gave his speech…

We went on Saturday to Arias 7th birthday I cant believe she is . We had such fun. It was so nice to be with the cousins and let the kids run wild.

this is David and I… I cant believe how freeking HUGE he is! I had to twist his arm to take this pic with me LOL

Here is the Birthday girl.

Markie LOVED the trampoline

Markie Helpin cousin out of the trampoline.. he's so funny

2009-03-23T21:43:00.001-07:00

I have been seeing button necklaces on line and wanted to crochet one for myself. This is my first attempt. Its not perfect but I like it and I love my foofala buttons.

Happieness comes in a box

2009-03-17T08:03:00.001-07:00

and its delivered by UPS... LOL

Yesterday I got my new Cosmo Cricket and Glimmer Mist!!!

Doesn't Cosmo Crickets Snorkel line make you want to Bust out the Flip Flops and take off for a day that lake or beach?

I wish Cosmo would have done more with this hot little number... I adore her and the lovely vintage feel to this chickey..

I have wanted to get my hands on these three colors ever since I saw the previews by tattered angels. Mimosa is a orange with a copper and gold tone shimmer to it looks darker in the bottle but sprays lighter than dreamcsicle..
Dreamcsicle is Yummy it does remind me of the color of those ice cream bars. its a bit more orange and the shimmer is also silvery and some copper glimmer in it too.

Here is a side by side on a white scrap.. the green dot is from a diff bottle of mist that I used and it leaked a bit while shaking it..its not form the Mimosa..You can see the silvery shimmer to dreamsicle

Ok I need some summer pictures to scrap this stuff is so fab!

With my hubby gone for work I had a lonely Valentines.

I made my boys a cake and gave them chocolate hearts. We then drove to Knights ferry for a walk in the sunshine. I was so mad I took my camrea but my SD card was in the computer at home... but thank goodness my cell phone takes decent pics. It was so pretty and green there. The sky was awesome looking and it was nice to be out of the house. It had rained the day before and everything was so fresh. Scotty told me he LOVED walking through nature.

2009-01-23T11:54:00.000-08:00

OMG I went into Michel's craft store yesterday and was not really looking for anything; seeing how I had just spent 30 bucks at my LSS The Pampered Scrapper in Oakdale...

So anyway... I start to head back to the yarn to fuel my other love.. and what do I notice from afar?? The most adorable little squirrel!

Whats worse is he has some friends with him... a lovely little owl, a hedge hog, turtle, frog and snail!!
a

How could you not LOVE this paper line??? Its called Friendly forest and its by Colorbok. OMG I am in love. I have a total squirrel fetish anyway. So Ive been in a total funk and this paper made me produce a layout woohoo!

That's my Sister and Cousin way back in the 80's My mom used to take us on little day trips around our area and we went to Knights Ferry alot. We loved to collect rocks. I can even remember being able to drive through that covered bridge at one point. They don't let you any more but I can remember doing it

Sorry for the bad pics its raining today and I couldnt get outside to some good light. We need the rain so thats ok.

My middle son is 6 today SIGH time goes so fast. Im going to take him to the zoo tomorrow its just a small one local but hes never been. Today he will get to go to lunch where ever he wants. Man my kids grow too fast.

A long drive throuh nothing

2009-01-18T10:17:00.001-08:00

I went Thursday to drop my hubby off for work in this far off place Called Thermal Ca. OMG that's so far form here. Nearly 500 miles away It was a LONG drive.

I'm very very Thankful my lovely Cousin Marie came along with me. I could have never drove home alone. There is not a whole lot to look at on that drive

I was in the back seat while my husband drove and Ill tell you even tho I have a large Dodge truck that back seat sucks for a ride that long. My back was killing me and so was my ass.

There wasn't much to see along the way

SO I left my darling hubby and made the long trip back with cousin. We did stop at one place. It was a fruit yard and I was not all there and didn't take a pic of the front of the place.
Here is cousin picking out some fruit isn't she lovely?

so yeah we had a little fun on that long trip. I have to tell you I'm thankful for family and that my cousin could come along. I really needed a co-pilot for that trip. I so owe her one!

I wish Id have had more money to play with then we could have stopped some place really fun. Or maybe headed into L.A. and saw the Hollywood sign. OR in a dream world go for a taping of The Price is Right... man that would have rocked! But I had to get home to my kids.

ALL the fine print...

2009-01-17T13:50:00.000-08:00

Im a total nerd when it comes to some things. I have this quirk that I have to read the fine print on stuff. Well I just got three sets of Cosmo cricket Black board shapes and alphas. On the back of the package it has pictures of what you get in the package, and tips on how to use them...

So Im reading them and thinking to myself HMM not a not to glimmer mist on these tips?? but then I check out the fine print and GUESS what Cosmo Cricket Blackboard shapes are GOOD FOR YOU!!! I can now stay on my diet and Indulge in this guilty pleasure....

I found it clever enough to blog about.. LOL so I nod my head to the Cosmo Cricket employee that thought that up. Very very clever indeed

Be Still My beating heart...

2009-01-08T11:20:00.000-08:00

OMG have you seen the new 2009 spring colors by glimmer mist??

TO die for.. they also have a few of their summer colors up and OMG is all I can say. Check out the new colors here....

http://mytatteredangels.com/shop.php?cPath=25_116

I really really want that Mimosa color OMG its awesome looking. And the summer line has a orange thats called dreamsicle.. Isnt that supper duper yummy?
I mean, with names like Lemon Meringue, Cherry Limeade, and Sherbert..It Makes me HUNGRY for some summer pictures to scrap.

So anyway I hope you all have a lovely day today and Ill get some more posts up in a while. :D

Ah yes I moved.

2009-01-06T22:01:00.000-08:00

Thats just easier than trying to decode how to get rid of my last header. HA
