Wow, it's been a month!!

I seriously can't believe it's been OVER a month since I made a scrapbook layout! I knew I wouldn't have much scrappy time in August, but that's just CrAzY! ;) Anyway, it's time for another 24 Hour Challenge in my Scrappin-N-Chattin group, and since I'm the hostess, of course I wanted to play along. The ladies in the group chose the collection I would use as well as a sketch for me to follow. When I started working on the page this morning, my mojo was a little blocked, but I worked through it and LOVE the finished result!

Supplies: Pink Paislee Paper - Queen Bee; Tim Holtz Distress Ink - Walnut Stain; Prima Flowers; Maya Road Chipboard Letters - Olivia

*Inspired by The Scrap Farm Sketch #9 (It can also be seen at The Scrapville Blog where it's the challenge sketch for August)

Thanks for looking! Now that school's started, I'll have much more time to scrap, so I'll see you soon. :)

Just saying hi!

I haven't been around all that much lately and the reason behind it is that my BABY will be starting Kindergarten this year! We went to the beach for vacation at the end of July, and now that we're home, we're spending all the time together that we can. Once the girls are in school, I'll have plenty of time to create, so I'm sure you'll see me often. ;)

For now, here's a picture that I took of my sweet family headed to the water the first day we went to the beach...

Are they amazing or what? I am SO thankful for each of them and so glad God blessed me like He has. :)
