Our trip to Sedona

Hello everyone!

I have created a new layout using a sketch from the wonderful sketch site Creative Scrappers, they have awesome sketches! I used sketch #157 to create this page of our trip to Sedona. I used the collection "100 days of Summer" from Simple Stories/Memory Works and this is actually my front page, I actually created our entire vacation album in one day! Using the refill pages from We R Memory Keepers and the Simple Stories system I was able to create about 20 pages in one night! I will be sharing those pages once I finish journaling and embellishing my pages, so easy, so simple but gorgeous!

Here is the sketch I used:

And here is my take on the sketch:

More to come...enjoy!

Playing this weekend

Working at the store all weekend allowed me to play! I have been getting tons of new product and I wanted to make some samples for the store. We have received so gorgeous lines! We got last week 3 collections from Memory Works including "100 days of Summer". The entire line lasted less than 10 days, I just reordered the entire collection, I figure it is not even summer yet and it is almost gone!

Here is some pictures of the new product and some samples I made:

April s Blog Hop!

Welcome to the next stop on the Scrapbook Daisies April's blog hop!

(If you happened to have arrived here first, please consider starting at the beginning of the hop at the Scrapbook Daisies blog so that you don't miss out on any of the fun.

We are playing a fun "scraplift" activity that the design team took part in this month... I was so thrilled to have the opportunity to "lift" one of my Design Team members and friend, Ly T Le.
When I found out that I got to lift her, I immediately knew I wanted to lift one of my favorite layouts of hers.

New Layouts

I am so happy that I finally have time to scrapbook! The last six months have been a wild ride, but we are so blessed with all the new people we have met,the success of the store...and I am loving it!

Here is some of my recent layouts:

This one I created with the left over paper of the January page of the month kit from Basic Grey, I found a picture of my mother when she was about my age and then I found a picture of me almost posing exactly the same way! I am like her in so many ways and at times a catch myself doing some of her manerisms, even talking like her...I miss her so much!
Photobucket
This next one is also using the left overs from the same kit, when I like a collection, I am very frugal and use it to the last tiny piece of scrap, this one is the Galvez Family at Christmas time! It is always such a joy to spend Christmas with them,I am blessed to have this great family!

This next one is the real page of the month layout, I picked pictures of me and my daughter.

I got to go to bed, I will post some more tomorrow or this weekend!
