A lifting I will go...

Ok Ok. I am a queen lifter. At Paper Popsicles this week, everyone is gearing up for National Scrapbooking Day on Saturday, May 3rd. Every day this week they have another challenge over there. I am inspired and my mojo is screaming..."KEEP UP YOU FOOL!". Anyway, here are a couple of my lifts (the layouts--thanx BECCA...you rock girl!) and a card using alcohol inks.

Disney Album

I went to Archiver's yesterday in Indianapolis. It was a day long (12 hour crop) but so worth the 3 hour trip EACH direction. Didn't get home until 2:30 a.m. I think I am too old for these types of trips. Woo eee I am T I R E D today!

One of the projects I was determined to work on was a lunch box tin album. I didn't do the pictures yet, but I think you will get the point!!!

More Challenges and Ideas Found

I just love a good challenge, don't you? They give me such mojo! Paper Popsicles has inspired me to try ATC (Artist Trading Cards). These little rolladex sized cards are such a hoot to work with. They are so small that they whip up in a jiffy! I just love that! Go visit them for lots of inspiration and mega amounts of challenges at http://www.paperpopsicles.com/. You definitely

will get your mojo kicking, and quick!

Then there is Ellie! I have seen some amazing projects and wonderful ideas come from her blog, http://www.scrapbookmamaof4kidz.blogspot.com/. She is having a little RAK giveaway. More small cards, this time 3x3 size. I am so fond of these little treasures. They come together so quickly.

Thanks Ellie for all of the inspiration!!!

Better late than NEVER!

Hey There! Things have been so hectic in my personal life that I have neglected my blog. So here I am updating it on Sunday afternoon with Easter Pictures. Ok ok, I know, that was like forever ago, but soon I will add a bunch of scrapbooking goodies for you all to look at too, I promise! I have a bunch that I have done, just haven't posted them either!!! We went to Bloomington, IN for Easter this year to spend time with friends of the family (also, they are the Godparents of our kiddos). It was so lovely!!!

I have accepted a full time position as the Director of Training and Community Resources at Real Services. This is a local area agency on aging that serves five counties in the area. It is a big change for me and the family but it is going well. I am managing my scrapbooking habit just fine with a bit of help during lunch going to the message boards I love.
