Life and New Pages

Hello Blog Friends,

I'm sad to report that Winter Woolies II is still in process.  Life, as we all know, has a way of sometimes getting in the way.  We seemed to have a busy week, but somehow did not get as much accomplished as we would have liked.  So, check in with me next week to see the finish of Winter Woolies II.

I did not sit idle the entire week, however.  Thursday night was scrapping group and we made some pretty cool pages.  As you know, my daughter Kristy is a Close to My Heart consultant, and she hold a group class once a month.  We make (3) 2-page layouts which are photo ready by evening's end.  This month we used the Hopscotch paper packet and coordinating accessories.  The sunburst elements were all cut with the Cricut machine in varying sizes.  These pages can be used for spring, or summer vacation pictures.  One of the members of our group is going to use them for photos from her winter vacation in Mexico.  Another is going to southern California this summer; these pages will be perfect for that!




Fun pages!  See you next week!

Scrapbooking Group Night Chantilly Papers

Hello friends!

It is monthly scrapbooking group night!  My daughter, Kristy, is a Close To My Heart Consultant.  Each month we gather, Kristy as our guide, to create 6 pages from one of the current kits in the catalog.  We cut our papers per her instructions, and assemble following her sample pages.  At the end of one year, we have 72 pages ready for photographs!  We worked with the Chantilly kit tonight and it features springtime papers with cute flowers and pastel patterns. 
Here are my finished pages:


For my quilting friends, the blank spaces are photo mats. 

Scrapbooking is a lot like quilting...you take a piece of paper, just like fabric, cut it into small pieces, then put it back together again!
