Christmas Wreath

I saw this wreath on Two Peas in a Bucket and thought I would try to make it as a christmas decoration. It's not near as nice as Holly Hanks, but it was really fun to make! Amazing what you can doing with 5x5 paper squares. Check out Holly's wreath on her blog.

Something else i'm exciting about making this Christmas is an Evalicious Christmas Journal. Im hoping to start on this soon, as December is just around the corner.

Quincy

Just wanted to post this video for some of my family members to see. I found Quincy eating a sucker last night and thought it was pretty cute. She is way too human-like. I tried to send this video through my email, but the file was too big. I know my nieces will be thrilled to see Quincy eating this sucker, so I thought I would post it on my blog.

Thanks for watching.

More Calendar Layouts

Here are three more of my calendar layouts for the year 2009. Im really excited to do my September page. It will be photos of Keith Urban. A friend from school was also at his concert and got to touch him three times. I was so jealous. She has amazing photos that are really close up and she is burning me a cd of them. His concert was amazing and I am so glad I got to go. It was the most fun I have had at a concert thus far, and we didn't even have amazing seats!

Im really excited about the new project I am working on. It will officially be my first hybrid project and I am enjoying every second of it.

Marketing Project

A couple of weeks ago I had to do a marketing project for one of my Communications classes. I decided to do an invitation company. I had fun with the project. I got to turn it into a scrapbooking opportunity so it didn't really feel like work. Here are pictures of the sample invitations I made, along with the brochure for my company. I will post more scrapbooking related material soon. Im hoping to start a project soon and am possibly thinking of writing out the steps and creating a tutorial type post. Thanks for checking in.

So its been awhile. A few weeks ago, I went on my computer to load some photos and discovered that all of my photos were missing. They some how got deleted on their own and I spent two weeks trying to recover them. Im happy to say that I recovered most of them, but am still sad about the photos I lost. Remember to back up your computer. Its awful when you lose four years of photos.

Since school started in May, I have found very little time to scrapbook. I decided in the New Year that I would do a Heidi Swapp Calendar as my album for the year 2009. In the calendar portion I write in all of my appointments and record all of the things I did in that month. Then I do one page with photos that were taken from that month. This will be a great keepsake and takes very little time to complete. It is a lot easier to complete one page per month on my schedule. Here are months January, February and April.

Hello Everyone!

Im back. Since starting school in May I have hardly had any time to scrapbook. I recently cleaned up and organized my scrapbook room and have been able to sneak in there every once in awhile. Please check back, as I will be posting new layouts soon. Just need to photograph them this weekend! Thanks for checking in!

Fairy Canvases

As promised, here are the canvases I made of my nieces in their fairy costumes. I was in Edmonton this past weekend and my sister brought these with her so that I could take pictures of them to post on my blog. I didn't know who to give them to at Christmas so I told my mom and my sister that they could decide amongst themselves who got to keep them. Of course my mom said that Danielle could have them if they were of the kids, but when she actually saw them she was sad she gave them away so easily. I felt bad for my mom so I will be making her a set of canvases for her bedroom. 

I really loved making these canvases. I had no real 'plan' when I set out to make them, so I just did what I thought felt right. There is a lot of texture to them and I used many different elements when creating them. I love making canvases!! Can't wait to make more in the future.

Thanks for looking. Hope to post again soon.
