hump day!

well, looks like this week is going by fast! why does it seem to do that as i get older? it just reminds me to quit procrastinating and get things i want to do done! like right now, i really should be making a couple of "thank you" cards instead of being on the computer......anyway just a quick post to show a couple of layouts that i got done this past weekend! both of these layouts were made using the february kit "bakers dozen" from studio calico. go check them out and subscribe, you wont regret it! well, maybe your wallet will 'cause you'll want to buy every kit and add-on they have,lol........enjoy :)


ps. just wanted to note that the layout above "in her eyes" is a total lift from lisa truesdell. she is a design team member over at studio calico (favorite place on the net) and this layout made me swoon! i dont usually "totally copy" people's stuff but in this case, i had no other choice! haha, thanks lisa!

my girlfriends and i went to the beach for a weekend of scrapbooking and good times! as usual we all acted waaaayyy too goofy and cut up like we'd lost our minds but it was just the thing we all needed! robin owns the condo right on the beachfront and she is awesome in making it available for us to enjoy several times throughout the year! and being that we all live within 30 mins. of driving there, it's perfect! however this weekend we got a rare treat here in charleston......it snowed! yes, although not much to speak of on the beach but inland we got about 4 or 5 inches! the dogs loved it but the poor cat didn't appreciate it much at all :( here are some pics of our weekend at wild dunes! enjoy

sunday sketch

today i thought i would post the sunday sketch from studio calico. every sunday now, they post a sketch on their blog and invite anyone to join in on the fun! just create a layout based on the sketch and link it back to this post on the blog! they randomly draw one or two winners per week and you receive a $5.00 gift certificate to use at the shop! pretty cool huh? come on and play along....it's a lot of fun and it has really motivated me to get scrappin' (plus you get to look at everyone else's take on the sketch) have a great day!

"yes"

Well, i wanted to share something that really made me smile. My only daughter is a senior in high school this year and she applied to several colleges. She got accepted to all of them but "the one she reaaallly wanted" was this one! USC in Columbia, South Carolina! Now I have to say she has really good taste in colleges. I have always loved the Gamecocks and always had dreams of going there myself back in the day. But there was also another side of me that never wanted to leave my mom and dad! ha, imagine that! Anyway I had a feeling she would get accepted there so I grabbed my camera and snapped away! Congratulations Brianna, mom's proud of you! Heres a layout I did using my January kit from Studio Calico! Thanks for reading this far and have a great day. Only 2 more days till the weekend you know :)
