I stamp this weekend productive!

Even though I didn't do a ton of scrapping, I did a lot of things in preparation to scrap. I cleaned my room, I edited photos, I organized files and resized LO's. I also gave into the whole Twitter thing, got my driver's license renewed, my car inspected and my laundry done. I even did a little bit of shopping. Hopefully, now I will be ready for the busy week ahead of me.


Colin let me take photos of him yesterday before he left. He was excited to pose with his book bag and I even almost got eye contact. I'm glad he's home, I sure missed the little guy.


Here's a card that I completed when I asked Colin what he would say to his teacher on the first day of school. This is what he said...he just cracks me up!
Thanks for stopping by today! Have a happy Monday!

Halloween Anyone?

I don't know how I feel about cards? It's nice to just make one for no reason and too stressful to create one when I actually need it. But if I make them with no intent to do anything with them...where do I put them? See, these are the things that I think about when I should be sleeping, lol.

Two posts in one day....

it's kind of weird, Colin is asleep really early today and I'm not quite sure what to do with the extra time. I'm actually a bit concerned. He is a MAJOR night owl. Needless to say I have been checking on him like every 15 minutes just to make sure he is still my kid. Maybe vacation and a full week of preschool has finally caught up to him? Anyway since I am awake and it's before midnight, I thought I would post a few new projects. I was telling you about the "me museum" at Colin's preschool. They gave us an 8 1/2 x 11 sheet of cardstock but I couldn't fit all of the photos that I wanted to include and I didn't feel like reprinting them smaller. Besides, I checked out the wall, (a nice perk to handing ours in late), and I was not the only one who expanded their canvas.


I also created a card and used up a few scraps. I may be on to something....


And here's another new LO. I hid my journaling on the back of the tag.


I have to say that I am a huge fan of the charcoal gray products that are available right now. For some reason I think the tone on tone looks the best with gray. Anyway, I have spent a lot of time on line the last few days so I'm planning to give my eyes a little rest and actually work on something.
Although to work on what I want to work on, I need to edit pictures...okay, maybe I will be online for a "few" more minutes, lol.
