New layout...finally

Wow, it's been over three months since I posted. Being back to work with two kids left me little time for scrapping, designing, or blogging. This has been the first week I've been caught up enough to get back on track since summer break started.

Let's see...what's new in the time I've been away. I went back to work a month earlier than planned b/c hubbie got laid off. It wasn't as hard to go back to work as I imagined it would be and the three months really seemed to fly by. Marcus is now 7 months old and trying hard to crawl. My husband decided to take a class this summer and the boys went to daycare for the first time. I never dreamed I would spend so much time each day getting things ready for daycare. Marcus needed breast milk pumped, unfrozen, and packed along with his bottlesand bottles each day. Gianni, due to his food allergies, needed all his own food packed each day. Then there was getting their bags packed and unpacked each day. It took hours every day. It seemed like by the time I did that, made dinner, and bathed the kids it was time for bed. At least the kiddos really liked the sitter and we made it through without any food allergy reactions. G did have problems with the pets at the sitter, so we know that's still one of his top allergens besides his food allergens.

On to the layout...



My first layout in three months was done using a kit called All Boys by Digiscrapations. The elements in this kit are so sweet and the colors worked perfectly with this picture of Marcus playing with one of G's new toys. I guess boys truly are born loving cars.



All Boys can be found in all of Digiscrapations' stores including Twilight Scraps, Michelle's Angels, and GBL Creations.

I hope to be back later with a new freebie and previews of my latest designs!

More new baby layouts

Well, Marcus is just days away from being four months old. It's gone so fast. In a week, I have to go back to work and I'm dreading it. I'm so not ready! It doesn't help that he's so much fun right now. I hate the thought of missing anything new that he does.

I found another great kit perfect for baby layouts, especially sleeping baby layouts. It's a beautiful kit by Miranda Scrap Designs. I love how she picked a neutral baby color of yellow for the kit. You can find Sweet Dreams at E-scape and Scrap and Scrappin Digi Kreations. If you get this kit, make sure you pick up Miranda's coordinating wordart!



I used the kit to create two new layouts for Marcus.

Sleeping baby layouts

I love snapping pictures of my boys asleep. I just can't get enough of those kind of shots. They're like little angels. I'm still planning to make a good night book for Gianni with all his sleeping layouts. Just another project I've yet to complete!

The layouts I have to share with you today are created using a wonderful kit by Faba Scrap Design. I love the colors she picked for the kit. It's very versatile and will work for both boys and girls. Here's a preview of her kit.



You can find Faba's kit at Angels Scrap Shop. You don't want to miss this kit as it's on sale now for an incredible $2.59!

Here are my layouts. One is little Marcus and the other is my big guy Gianni. I love how Gianni still curls up into a little ball when he sleeps.

Easter layouts

Okay, I admit it. No matter how hard I try I'm never caught up on my layouts. I'm finally getting around to scrapping the rest of last Easter's pictures. I used an adorable kit by Albina Design called Spring Village. It has the sweetest doodled elements that are perfect for spring and Easter too. You can find the kit here.

March Madness $1 Sale + Free Mini Kit


I'm a March Madness junkie. I love the first two rounds of the NCAA tournament. It's hard to believe that I've been watching this March tradition for over 25 years. There's nothing like it. I love the thrilling upsets, the buzzer beaters, filling out the brackets. This year I get to see even more games than normal as I'm home for two and half more weeks before returning from maternity leave.

To celebrate the NCAA tournament, I'm having an impromptu $1 sale at my personal store. All my personal and cu items are marked down to $1 Thursday and Friday only. The only exclusion is my Buy the Store option which is marked down to $15.00 for the next two days.

I revamped a mini kit for you for the sale. This is a great little basketball mini kit. I hope you enjoy it.
