Commit 2 Paper
Here are three LO I completed using the Commit 2 Paper kit for Jan. The kit is loaded with lots of paper, so for those of you that do a lot of two page LO it is perfect for you! For those of you like me, who do only 1 page LO, I *think* she (Amy) always chooses double sided pages!
Oops!!!!!
The following post is totally out of order. I don't know how it happened, but the descriptions don't go with the pictures that are under them. So sorry! Just read and match the right pic! Kind of like a game! You know in school how the teacher has the child draw a line to the two items that belong together? Just use that concept LOL!
Finally!
I know, I know I have been a very bad blogger. I have started graduate school and finding time to scrap is limited and when I do I run out of time to post. I will work on it!
This is a two page LO I did of my son's Birthday it is all CTMH -- even down the the sketch. The car took me F-O-R-E-V-E-R and I don't like it. It looks cheap, but since it took me so much time you have to look at it darn it! LOL!
This one I used a kit from the winter swap I was in. It is pictures of my four year old son who did not want to wear this costume! Can you blame him? He is all boy! I knew I had to scrap the pictures, but I feel kind of bad because I took so much enjoyment from his misery!
The next three pictures are from a mini album I am working on. I went to the Botanical Gardens and their was an artist work on display and I loved his art so much that I decided to make an album for my coffee table! There is a story behind the album itself. I bought it 75% off at a going out of business sale and on the front of it was a Rooster. I got the album like 2 years ago and have never had a need for a Rooster! So, I used alchole ink on the back of it and painted a heart over the rooster, added some bling, GB and title and this is what I got! Totally new album! The first three pages are not earth shaking I have done better work, but I really want to focus on the pictures. I used the new BG Mak????? line! TFL and please leave me some love. Sniffle. Sniffle. I need love.....

Inspirational Challenge
On OAU we are doing a LOAD challenge and I was assigned to do the inspiration for day 8, but since the forum is inaccessible right now I am going to post my challenge for you here! :-)
Here is your mission if you choose to accept it. This will not self destruct in 30 seconds! LOL
Create a WHITE Lay out! Yes, you read that correct -- WHITE! I have issues with white. Like I was told in my early scrapping days that white background is not as pleasing to the eye as a colored one and to not do them. Well, me -- the rebel that I am, have decided to try to create one (it only took me 10 years to do so -- not the LO, but to actually sit down and do one.)
Here are the rules:
1) You must use a piece of white CS as your base. No PP on this LO at all!
2) Select your pictures and decide on an ACCENT Color (I used pink and only used 1/12 of a piece of pink CS). This should be used very very little -- it needs to be clear that this is indeed a WHITE LO!
3) You may use (if you choose to) one metallic accent -- again keep it small (I used silver and it is only on my title) and one piece of bling (I used HS Clear oval) if you use bling then it needs to be either clear, your accent color, or metallic. For example one bling prima swirl, angel wings, or use bling in the center of WHITE flowers.
4) You may use as much clear embellishments as you would like because the WHITE can shine through.
So you think you can do it? Give it a try! I love the outcome of mine! Just do the best you can with the above rules. The important thing is that the LO is a WHITE LO.
Here is my example!

HaHa! Watch This!
I found this today and I just had to share it! Too funny! You may have to let it run once through and then hit the play button again. Not only is this by far the most fun I have had watching a video about crafting, the website is cool and if you are into metal stuff it is up your ally. If you are not into metal (like me) it is so worth your time to watch this. Trust me!

Two Layouts for Today!
This one is my LO I did for the LOAD challenge at OSU. It is of my nephew whom is graduating from HS this year! He has downs and this is a big accomplishment!
I did this LO on my three kiddos. I love this picture! I think it is Fancy Pants PP and Overlay. Thickers, MM, and Stickles. Oh, and these really awesome buttons I picked up in Yakima with Bobbie. I should have gotten a set in every color I love them!
TFL!
