More Bad Girls Layouts!

First day of winter break for my kiddos and I had to have a scrap break last night and this morning! LOL! I completed the following 4 LOs. The first one I used the Bad Girl kit for March 09, Oct 08, and one of the add on kits for Dec 08 and my stash! The pink circle flower in the bottom corner I made out of a pair of jeans my daughter thrashed (so happy about this because the pockets on them are really cute and will look adorable on a LO!.

Add on Dec 0 kit from Bad Girls is what I used to complete this. The bling brads are from my stash.

I went old school on this and love it! Dec 08 add on kit from Bad Girl. I cut out the picture of my boys (that is when I went old school -- I never cut out a photo. Oh, the brads are from my stash.

Oct 08 bad girl kit. One of the items in this kit was shipping tape with a design on it. I bunched it up and made a circles with it. I was kid of worried about it when I first started and tried to remove it, but it was not coming up, so I just had to finish what I started and crossed my fingers that it would work out and it did! :-)

TFL! :-)))

More Bad Girls Layouts!

This LO is done with the March 2009 bad girls kit.

This one is done with the March 2009 kit as well. Now, there is more to the title. It is totally sarcastic! I have this joke that when I got married they should have given me a stupid pill to take with my vitamins everyday because the family I married into really think that men are superior to woman and women are not capable of making good choices. It dawned on me that I had made my own choices and done a good job of it! Why should I turn "stupid" when I got married? Anyways, the rest of the title is suppose to be "who would have thought? Better take the Stupid Pill!"

This is my favorite LO that I did last night. I have had this picture of my daughter for a year and could not find the right thing to scrap it with. I love the picture and really did not want to do a Layout until I was happy with it. This is done with the March 2009 kit as well and it was the Thickers that sold me on it! I knew the thickers was just what the picture needed. The arrow and two journal spots are from my stash!

October 2008 kit. Finally able to scrap her birthday photos!

Still Beibg Bad.....

Another Layout using the March 08 Bad Girl Kit that I got on sale. Everything with the exception of the flower and brad in upper corner is from kit! I used Tim Holtz Distressing ink pad in weathered wood on tags and then Glimmer Misted them with a few different shades of pink that I have. TFL!

Bad Girls!

Wow! It has been a loooooooooong time since I have uploaded anything! The sad thing is with the exception of scrapping a few cards for my family, I have not scrapped since uploading the last images. Life is very busy and full! I really did not have time to scrap today, but so needed just a few hours off. I love the Bad Girls Kits, but can't afford them. On Black Friday www.badgirlskits.com had a 40% off sale -- including kits! This was the first time ever offered and I broke down and bought three. Here is one of the layouts I did with it. I can't show the other one because it is part of the December scraplift at OSU! TFL!

Woo-Hoo Christmas Album 08 DONE!

First, here is my album. I found two of these albums at Costco about a year ago. I was not planing on altering them, but I changed my mind....brown was not Christmas enough for me.....at least now it has the year on it! The first picture is what it was before I altered it and the second is the final product!


I did the following album with scraps -- no joke -- all scraps. I actually am pleased with them considering what I had to work with.


The following LO is one of my favorites because I was able to get the letters to Santa AND the pictures of the kids writing the letters, picture of them with their shoes, AND a description of the tradition on one 12 by 12 LO. I love the CTMH Flaps that allowed me to do this. Sorry for the glare on these, but in order to finish the LO I had to slip it in the page protector and add the flaps on that.




The last five pages of the book. I am really shocked that I got this album done! I have been working on it for about a month off and on. I really wanted to have this out complete on our coffee table and now it will be! Yay!

December Album LOTS of Pics!

This mini album I did I actually lifted the idea from my friend Kylie. Her album is amazing and you should go check it out. Mine is not nearly as purty as hers is and I think it is bigger just because with the family we do so much through out the holidays. When I first started this I was afraid I would not have much to talk about, but now I can see just how much we do!
The Cover
Day 1, I don't know what is going to go here yet.
This is day 2 and it is actually the flip flaps from CTMH. I can slip pictures into them and they are self adhesive. I really love them! I am going to get 6 pictures on this page. the following pictures show each flap and the title. My boys are having thier Birthday party at Pump It Up that day!
