Scrapping and Weaving!

I recently joined the site http://letsscrap.ning.com/ which gives sketch ideas.  I want to focus on scrapbooking more this year so I thought this site was perfect.  A couple of weeks ago they had a weekly challenge that involved weaving.  I missed the deadline but still wanted to complete the page.  I am not sure I have enough patience for weaving again but we will see, LOL.  I knew I wanted to do this family shot from a beach weekend we had this summer and am excited to have a page done that I can hang in my scrapbook room somewhere until it goes into a book.  I added some buttons for accents and I always write in the sand so that came in handy for a "title" for the page.  I hope you get inspired by the page or by visiting the lets scrap site!  TFL. (sorry for the quality of the pics, the overcast and lighting in my room is horrible today so some are blurry and some have a flash).

Cropping with the girls!

I cannot remember the last time I did a scrapbook page, it has been a LONG time!  This past weekend I had my girlfriend and my sister in law over.  I vowed to get my oldest daughters 2nd birthday and my youngest daughters 1st birthday done...I did half :)  I got 6 pages done (I take WAY too many pictures) for my oldest daughters 2nd birthday.  I did the actual day of her birthday, we went to dinner, and then the day of her birthday party.  I honestly was in a crafting funk for some reason but am glad I got these pages done.  I still need to add a Diego sticker to the first picture, above the Ally banner, but otherwise I think I am done with these!  The only Cricuting I did for these was the banner, it was cute from Lyrical Letters, I cut off the little loop that was at the top with it and just taped it down onto the string versus stringing it.  I used border punches for the candle border and the cupcakes which I then decorated with stickels.  TFL!
