Happy Kiddos

This one is just a simple one but I love these pics of the kids. Sketch is from this month's sketch at Memorable Seasons by Liz Chidester.

Can U Fix it???

I used a sketch for this one that was on the Crate Paper blog. Haley is playing with Tyler's Bob the Builder toys. The title I took from the Bob the Builder song and I cut out the letters from the patterned paper. Most of the papers are from the Little Sprout line.

Smile

I have been saving some of the kids' projects and other papers from school but not many of them have actually ended up on many of my scrapbook pages. So I accepted the challenge over on the Cosmo Cricket blog to make a LO using some kids artwork or project that they did. This is Tyler's school picture this year along with some questions that he answered and filled out at the beginning of the school year. I can't wait to do more of these type of layouts with school work and projects. I love having his point of view on there and his handwriting too. I used some papers and accents from the Boyfriend and Lil' Man lines.

This LO was for this week's challenge on the American Crafts blog to show something you are grateful for. Of course I chose my family. I cut out some shapes from the letterbox patterned paper and some butterflies too and of course used some thickers too.

Boating

A little boating excursion. As you can see, Haley was pretty skeptical about the whole boating experience. Tyler, however, had a great time tubing. I used a sketch from the Bo Bunny blog for their LO challenge that was posted here. I used some of my older papers from the Pep Rally and Grease Monkey lines.

Love Bugs

My little "love bugs!" The kids made these hats as one of our preschool crafts. I used a sketch from Page Maps. Not my typical color combo but I saw the colors together on a My Mind's Eye accessory sheet so that's what I went with. Papers are My Mind's Eye and Jillibean Soup.

Play More

I played along at My Mind's Eye Blog challenge. You were to use this sketch and scrap something about a lesson learned, using at least 80% of MME product. These are pictures of Haley playing outside. The journaling reads: What I love about you: That you remind me to have fun, laugh, be silly, and to be myself. I have learned to "play more" because of my kids!!

I combined quite a few MME lines: Little Boy blue, So sophie, and Ooo La La.

Halloween Night

I used a sketch from Nuts About Sketches and a challenge at Memorable Seasons to use a grid your LO for this 2 pager of Tyler on Halloween night '06.

Bath babe

I love this picture of Miss Haley and her bathtime hairdo! I used sketch #89 from The Scrappiest and combined it with Kristen's color challenge over at Memorable Seasons.

Builders

I used a sketch from Sketchy Thursdays from this week. The kids are building their graham cracker houses at Christmas. Green paper is Jillibean Soup and the rest are from my scrap bin. I painted the chipboard letters red and inked the edges.

Clean Up

Little miss Haley lookin' out the window. Sketch is from Liz Chidester on the Memorable Seasons website.

Tyler's 8th birthday was this summer. Finally used some of my hoarded Scrap within Reach papers! Sketch was by Julie Bonner on the Let's Scrap website.

I was cleaning up my craft table today and noticed I hadn't posted this couple of layouts so here they are!!
