Hello SCRAPLAND!

I am back from my visit with my Mom, Dad and a couple of my siblings. Well I have been back for a week but along the way I got some kind of flu/cold and was sick in bed for three days....uck, I hate being sick. Head all stuffed up in this HOT HOT HUMID weather. But I am feeling better now!

My Trip to GA was great to see my niece Graduate from High School...Well share some photos with you soon.

I have noticed that there are not as many BLOGGER as most have turned face....LOL. FACEBOOK is taking over the world and it is great for something things, but I still enjoy reading Gals I follow from their personal blogs without all the farmville ect cluttering  up the page. I try to make my rounds about once a week and I have been trying to make a point to leave them a comment so they know someone is reading it for enjoyment not just freebie hopping.

I have a busy weekend, but I will try to share some photos and goodies with you soon! I hope all are enjoying your Summer (USA) and what ever life is handing us!

Happy Scrapping!

Well, I am leaving shortly for Middleburg and a mini vacation to GA. Excited to get away and visit with my family....See you all back here in about a week....Happy Scrapping and I will be back to scrapland the middle of June!

Happy Scrapping!

Stopping in to Say HELLO!!!!

It has been over a month since I posted so I thought I would catch you up on what IS going on since my BFF did my last post…*wink* Thank you Linda so much for posting for me during my big computer issues.  I think they are fixed now but what a messy I made of the large hard drive…too stressful to think about working on right now.

First, I have decided to take a summer break from designing. Life has just handed me a full plate and with trying to deal with emptying that plate, I need to just step back and look at the value of my time spent in all parts of my life.  I could go on and on with a lot of drama stuff here, but I will spare you from my DRAMA. This is my FUN place and it is suppose to be relaxing, but I have to admit, the more I think about it the more it STRESSES me out. SO…a break is what I have decided to take for the summer and really think about what direction I want my digi scrap hobby to take me.

I do want to share what I have been doing to relax in the evenings as I have been sharing an old hobby with my daughter Dusty, crocheting. It is funny that she asked me about this craft, as it was during my pregnancy with her I started this craft. I will have to dig out the baby set I made her I made as I awaited her arrival May 17, 1985…. Yes tomorrow is her birthday……. Happy Birthday, Sweetheart. I so enjoy having one of my girls who like to craft together.

Here is a crochet project I made my mom for her birthday, which was May 4. She so loved it!….cotton crocheted dish cloths. Asked her to use them as a test to see what all the rage is. They are on all the yarn sites and pattern books. I sure sponges with scrubbys on them…I am going to make one just to see what they are like. The hanging towels something else I would like to make myself…we will see. I do better making for others as gifts than I do for myself.

I also Have been doing some sewing, which I made Dusty a Project bag for her crocheting…(I have also made Dusty a makeup bag and sunglass case for Mother’s Day which I still need to get a picture of). She had asked about a crochet needle case the last time I had gone to the craft store and they were just too much money for what You were getting and I also have the habit of saying to myself, “I can make that!”  It is away of talking myself of impulse buying…LOL. But I came up with this bag instead…it does both hold her needles and supplies along with her project. I am making me one too, I go to my sisters and older daughters to visit and I need something to carry my projects in as well…already have to fabric picked out. Thinking of making a weekend over night bag to match. (I know BIG ideas, so little time.) LOL

I made my own pattern from looking at a few on Esty. They have Tons of cute crafty for sale and a great place for crafters to get inspired.

I have also been working on a baby set to Linda’s new Baby Girl, which will be arriving this summer. She is so excited about having a granddaughter and so I wanted to make her a special gift for her. I really want to surprise Linda’s as well, but I want to show you the CUTIEST little girls booties (and I wanted to show YOU Linda, but this is the only part you can see!…. as I told you on the phone, I want to do them in pink).

I also have two lap size afghans I am working on…will share when they are done.

I haven’t done much scrapping, at least not as much as I usually do but have a couple of layouts I have done since my last post…..

Which by the way I don’t think I ever posted for my mom as I had forgot about it, Sorry Mom! I did surprise her with a spring flower delivery! But Linda did say I could share the scrapatit with you along with the word word I have made. I hope you all had a wonderful Mother’s day and that Your support means the world to me. Until next time, which I hope to post an update monthly during the summer….Enjoy!

Dawn’s “unplanned” Mini-Vacation from Scrapland …

Hi y’all!  It’s me, Linda (Bon Scrapatit Designs), Dawn’s BFF stopping in to let y’all know that Dawn will be away from the computer for the next 2-3 days due to computer issues.

Let’s all  keep our fingers and toes crossed that all goes smoothly for her, as she addresses the needs of her computer so that she can get back to Scrapland ASAP!

Girlfriend has been working SO hard and then with the time away to care for her daughter, Dusty, post-surgery, I’m thinking that aside from this being a bit of an inconvenience, it is also some much needed time for her to relax a little, which will allow her to come back to us refreshed!

Love you girlfriend!  XOXO

Stay-tuned for Dawn’s next post AND a goody!

Have a LOVELY weekend everyone and Happy Scrapping!

WOW, what a busy week! I hope you all had a great week and enjoying the warmer weather. It has finally been in the 70’s here all week.

Good evening, I have one more new release for the week for Denise of Digidesigns by Denise at Digiscrap Drive In. I had a good time working with this layout. I was totally going to use a different picture when I started putting the layout together. I was inspired by a layout I had save the preview of when out surfing the blogs I follow and can’t remember where I had got it but I usually rename them by who made them so I am hoping I have her name right, if not…thanks but please forgive me if I done have it totally credited properly: Lela Siregar. 

The picture was taken the weekend I baby sat for my sister girls at my daughter house. On Friday evening, Amber and Brandon went out, so Jessica and I hangout with the girls and Brittany decided to play dress up with the girls. It was so cute…more pictures to scrap of this one. Brittany even had Jess and I fix our hair and play in the fashion show.
Denise let me make a freebie quick page for you with her name kit, ECLECTIC PINK. Please stop by her blog and thank her for the awesome job she did with this kit and letting me share with you.
