Catching up

Where does time go??? I realized I have not posted quite a few of my most recent scrap layouts, so here are a few of them. I am hopeful my scrap mojo and the time to do more pages returns! I will reallllly try to make a December Calendar this weekend!
First up, a new kit from a new designer joining at Scrap Orchard, Julie Bullock. This kit is amazing and crammed full of goodies. Believe it or not the scalloped ground was made using the cloud shapes as a mask. My page from Lolli:

Next, I have made a couple layouts using kits from Monica (mglscraps) at SBG. I loooove bold and bright pages that stand out.
Kit: Strange Days and Alpha from Trap the Spark

Kit: Trap the Spark and Alpha from Snippets

This was from a recent kit from Matahati Designs, Summer Stroll:

...and another from Midnight Dreams

A new calendar!

Here it is October already! I am pleased to share this desktop calendar with you. I discovered the unique talents of SherrieJD when I started dabbling in altered art at Scrap Orchard. She has moved her store to ScrapArtist.com and I'm sure my forays into this unique style will continue. Her kits have a traditional side as this calendar shows. I used Justin's Promise, Altered States alpha and a paper from Sheeps in the Meadow. Click image to snag it! It comes in 2 sizes: 1024x768 and 1280x800. Enjoy...and keep an eye out for some future altered art inspiration. Since Sherrie has moved, she has a sweet sale going on here!

Grab Bag Fever at SO this week!

I can tell you this much...from what I see, the ladies at Scrap Orchard have pulled all stops in making some of the best Grab Bags ever! I got a couple today and here is my first layout so far. This will take you to the store for some amazing deals for about $3 to 4! Go grab em!

School is back in session

I hope to have some free weekend time very soon and to get back to the business of scrappin! I feel terrible that I had so few posts over the summer. Boy, did that fly by fast. At least the kiddo is glad to be back in a routine. It doesn't help that my scrap mojo went AWOL for so long. So my question is...who has my scrap mojo? I made this word art just for the occasion.

You ever feel like you are running out of photos to scrap? I am getting some really great photos from friends and loved ones that you will soon see in my layouts. This first one is from a friend who left the Keys, so I have missed her sweet little girl growing up, but here she is all princess-y! Isn't she a doll? (Hurry back!)
