CT call for Busyscrappin


Busyscrappin is looking for CT to work with their designers. I am on the team and the designers are great and very talented. So why dont you take a try at it!!!

Never Ending Energy Award


Leaonna from busycrappin gave me this award. I owe Leaonna a lot, she has spent endless hours and energy on me, teaching me and giving me suggestions on scrapping. She has been patient through my computer problems and with my dial up issue where as she could have just found someone else to work with. THANK YOU so much Leaonna!!

Now I have to give this award to 3 others......

1. Definitely my first choice is to Tracy of Latte` Dah designs she also has taken me under her wing to help expand my knowledge and techniques.

2. My 2nd choice is to Deb from 2MrsSumners designs She also has spent many nights chatting online helping me with computer issues and offering her help.

3. My 3rd choice goes to Stellarific Creations, I hadn't known her long but she was warm and open to me when I came to the team on busyscrappin. She is a great designer and also always ready to help me.

There are many more that I could give this award too but a lot of them have already received it.

AGAIN THANK YOU LADIES FOR EVERYTHING YOU HAVE DONE FOR ME AND TO LEAONNA FOR THIS AWARD!!

Computer problems

My scrapping folder is on an external hard drive so I wont be taking up so much room on our hard drive since the family shares the same computer. Well my external drive is not cooperating and hopefully is not dieing....... ouch. I am trying to slavage my folder from it but until then I cant post any of my QP's or LO's to share. I am hoping to solve this problem soon otherwise I have a lot of downloading to do again to start up duplicate files OUCH!!! I hope to be back posting soon........

September 11th/ Happy Birthday Jeff!


September 11th is not only memories of the 9/11 disaster but it is also our son Jeff's birthday. So every year it does have a damper due to the 9/11 attack but we do try to celebrate some for our Son. Usually for a birthday the person gets to pick where the family will go to dinner. Jeff is a big Pasta lover, so dinner was at Olive Garden this year. With our daughter and son at school the family was smaller but we did have our good friend "Aunt Julie to the kids" join us so we did have a good time.

Picnic in the Park QP's


I made these QP's using Tracy's kit "Picnic in the park" of Lattedah Designs. You can get these QP's by visiting her blog at http://lattedahdesigns.blogspot.com/

Blog Makeover

I know I have been bad with this blog and had neglected it. Tracy from Lattedah designs encouraged me to revamp it and get it going again so I did. I used the Denin Chic4 layout that I found at jt samples. Thank You Tracy for the encouragement. A lot has happened over the year since I last wrote. I am still on the CT for Michelle at shopcraftyscraps, I also joined the CT for Leaonna at Busyscrappin and the CT for Tracy at Lattedah designs. Recently I have been named QP Sue and I will be making QP's for all of the designers at shopbusyscrappin. I owe a BIG Thank You to Leaonna & Tracy first for having confidence in me and also for guiding me along the way. I hope you will take a few minutes to visit their sites. I have a lot of LO's to post that I have done over the year and also QP's that I have made and have been given as freebies. So please bear with me but I hope to get this blog up and running again!

My daughter had a GREAT first year at college so good that she decided to stay there for the summer. She had landed a internship job with the Quincy Gems baseball team and worked at the stadium during their season. She also worked in the PR office at her school. This year she has her younger brother Kevin with her at school so she is showing him the ropes of college life. So I am 1/2 a empty nester!! We still have 2 at home, Jeff our oldest is continuing his studies toward his associates degree in criminal justice at the community college and Tim our youngest started HS this year!!! So it is time for Mom to start getting her own life now and I am happy to be doing it with digi scrapping!! :)

Have a great day and I will be back to start posting some of my LO's and QP's
