I am out of town right now and I will post more later along with some new LOs.

Layout of the Day!!

I just am posting really quickly to say I got LO of the day over at The Shaker Box for this LO!!



I just realized though that on the number 5 wordart it actually says four on one of the words! How funny is that!!

NSD withdrawl anyone?

I didn't even know what NSD was until the crops were announced at various sites. I'm so glad I participated at the crop over at The Shaker Box. Number 1 I love challenges. They get me going like I'm in a race and have to be the first one done with all layouts. Number 2 They let me see how much I've grown in my scrapping since the last crop. I'm only going to post a few of my favorites and then I want you to reply with YOUR favorite layout YOU did this weekend. Whether or not you participated in a crop. I want to know why it's your favorite as well. Was it your photo? The kit you used? Or was it because it challenged you? Or showed you how to do something new? Everyone who participates will get their name in a drawing and I will let that person choose the next challenge! Ok onto my favorites!

NSD -- Just for you Alli!

I was informed that I had not updated this blog in a while so as a punishment I'm issuing a little challenge of my own. No prizes...I can't do that so it's all in good fun! When I post LO's in galleries for challenges or just for fun. People always comment on how good my journaling is. I don't think my journaling is really good. I just write whatever comes to mind at that exact moment. I don't think about it as I'm making the page or anything. I want to see the LO or multiple LO's where YOU thought your journaling was best!

Recent Layouts

First off the girls over at The Shaker Box have a great Saturday challenge each week in which we are creating a "Deck Of Me". It's supposed to be like a deck of cards that describes each of us. Each week is a different theme. I am getting caught up with them right now.

This is week 1 - Something we're proud of

Some More Layouts

I am starting to make a deck of bible verses I can keep in my bag for inspiration. Sometimes when I'm out I like to pull out a bible verse and read it to help me through my day. God always seems to share just the right word at the right time. I usually have them all written down in a spiral but this way is so much prettier. Here is number 1 in my set.

Psalms 120:1 - "In my distress I cried unto the LORD, and he heard me."



I hope to do at least 1 a week or more so that I can memorize them as well.

Here are some of my older layouts. This one was for a challenge over at www.colorlinedesign.com . It was supposed to be a list, whether a grocery list, a list of wishes, or anything. I made a list of summer wishes. I used the Unda Da Sea kit by Kim B.



This was my second layout ever so excuse it if it's not very nice looking. LOL. It is eventually going to be put as the cover to a journal I keep in my bag.



I don't remember what kit I used so if you recognize it or if it's yours let me know and I will credit it!
