Twilight Tuesday Inspiration Challenge #29..............

This week's challenge is brought to us by the talented Tonya. The theme she picked for this week is to touch on the BFF relationship of Bella and Jacob. So as I have said in many postings- I am all about Edward. That is who I would choose. However- I do LOVE Jacob as a friend for Bella. I love his sense of humor and the fact that he has always loved her makes him very protective of her. So I think this makes their friendship complicated- but still a good one.

I myself have many BFF's. A handful of my special friends. I think we all have several friends from different times of our lives and from our different settings. And they are all dear and we hold them special in our hearts. However- it is the BFF's that we have exposed our inner most secrets- and really do know us inside and out. So for this project I am sharing something that I recently made for one of my BFF's Holli. It is a little notebook that she can write notes or assignments in.



I used the Club Scrap Cypress kit for this mini notebook. I added the little tag on the side. "Causing trouble since 1989." 20 years is a lot of trouble huh Hol?
(Actually I think most of it was my fault- but it is always fun to blame someone else!)
Hope you enjoyed it!

I Know it is Not February Anymore.............

......and that it is April. However- this is how BAD I am. I have not posted the Valentine gifts I made for the teachers this year! So here we go........................
These little cute boxes came thru a SCS email newsletter. They hold four of the Ghirardelli small chocolate bars.
These are notebooks that I made using embossed felt, lined paper, my bind it all (LOVE that thing), and Basic Grey magnetic closers.


My friend Denise gave me the rest of her Green Tangerines page kit and I used it to make these cute cards!


I wish everyday was Valentine's Day!

Twilight Tuesday Inspiration Challenge #28..............




This week the marvelous Margie got to pick the theme. She chose Edward and Bella's wedding.
And this is my project for the week:

Everything about this card sparkles! From the ivory Bazzill Bling paper, to the shimmery patterned paper. I added a strip of iridescent beads to the one side. SU happiness stamp, tore leaves and more Bazzill Bling to make a flower. Wrapped the paper into a circular pattern and added a stitch with shimmery thread.
Like I said very Sparkly! Speaking of sparkle.......

TTSC3.................................

I wanted to play along with the TTSC3 sketch for April. Dani did a great job with this fun sketch. If you would like to play along here is the link. Here is what I came up with......................
I found this go green stamp in the dollar stamp bin at Michaels. I knew it would come in handy for lots of projects. I went crazy with the green on this one- and raided my green scrap paper.

Twilight Tuesday Inspiration Challenge #27...............









I am having a hard time with my posting this week..... It appears that my pictures are up (even though I can not see them!) So please if anything is missing- know that is why!
This week's challenge is brought to us by our lovely Julie. Her pick this week was Jasper Hale. I love the quote on this card for Jasper. Live the present- dream the future. His past is not something he really wants to think about. His present is really good- and the future as he gets stronger can only be better!
Club scrap for the quote and paper, and I used the Heidi Swapp mask with ink to make the flowers on velum.

Why do I blog?

I have never been one to keep a journal. I have never been able to write in a diary for more than a week! I have countless scrapbooks that still need to be journaled. I do this in hopes of becoming a better journalist. I do this to document everyday life. I do this so I don't have to scrapbook EVERY picture! I do this for me, our friends and family, & mostly the kids. One day they will have it all - because I took the time to document all the little things that REALLY do matter. Everyday life....all the little moments you & I can't remember because the memories are long gone.......
