Capture the minutes...

Good morning!! How are you on this beautiful Saturday? I'm excited because my hubby goes on vacation starting tomorrow! We aren't going anywhere since my girls had Spring Break this week (bummer right?), so they'll be in school, but it will still be nice having him home. :)

So anyway, I have a new layout to share with you today. Earlier in the month, Sketches in Thyme posted about a DT Call on their blog and I got really excited! I've been having alot of fun with their sketches lately so I thought I'd throw my hat in the ring and try out. This is the layout I made that was inspired by the sketch they posted for the call...






Supplies: Basic Grey Olivia Paper - Amelia, Katelyn, Marabelle, Chloe; Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Walnut Stain; Ali Edwards Stamp Set - It's In The Details; Studio Calio Mister Huey - Dark Calico; Fiskars Scallop Sentiment Border Punch; Fiskars Circle Punches - Large & Medium; Martha Stewart 3-in-1 Classic Butterfly Punch; American Crafts Button; The Twinery Twine; CK Alis Hand Computer Font

This is my hubby and his mom holding Madison on the day she was born. His mom lives pretty far away so we were all very thankful that she was able to be here with us. :)

In case you're wondering why I've been working on so many baby pages lately, it's because I decided to do a scrapbook for each of my girls about their birth. It's been really awesome going back through baby pictures and working with them, and the memories have been flooding through, which I'm treasuring. It all seems SO long ago, sigh...

Anyway, if you will, please think lots of good thoughts for me to make the team!! And thanks for stopping by!

Back again!

As I promised in my earlier post today, I'm back to share my latest layout with you all! The sun wasn't really cooperating all that well with me when taking the pictures, so they're a little bit dark but still turned out pretty good I think...






Supplies: October Afternoon Farmhouse Paper - Guest Room, Clothesline, Church Social; October Afternoon Sidewalks Paper - Jump Rope; Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Pumice Stone; Fiskars Flit On By Punch; Martha Stewart Large Circle Cutter; American Crafts Thickers - Giggles; October Afternoon Mini Market Alpha Stickers - Gray & Cream; BoBunny Button; October Afternoon Button; Basic Grey Button

I'm adoring this page! The picture is of my younger sister and myself at Myrtle Beach, SC back in 1990. Crazy! She really loves the photo so I decided to scrap it for her. Once I frame it, I'll give it to her and I already know she'll love it! She's one of those people who gets super excited when I make her something, which makes me want to make more things for her. Hmmmm, maybe that's her plan? LOL! All you crafters know how good that feels, so I know you understand. ;)

So there you go! Thank you for stopping by...again...today! I hope to scrap tonight since the hubby is planning on gaming, so hopefully I'll be back soon with more to share.

I am SO happy with how these layouts turned out! Both of the pictures absolutely melt my heart and I wanted to use some really great papers for each of them. It worked out perfectly! I created both of the pages with the March kit from Artful Delight. I've really missed getting Leeanne's kits since I'm not on the DT anymore, and when I saw the one for this month, I fell in LOVE with it and just had to buy one! It's gorgeous and I can't wait to work with it some more...

So thanks for stopping by today! I promise it won't be as long before I share something new again. :)
