Another Wedding LO

I started this LO Friday morning since I didn't have to be to work until 1. I sat at the computer most of the morning and got bored so I thought I would scrap some! I had most of the journaling done and didn't remember all the names so I asked my mom this morning and she knew the names of the ones I didn't! This will be the first one in the scrapbook of the wedding LOs. I titled it "Family Fotos" for the Punny LO Challenge with Scrappin-n-Chattin, but it may not qualify as punny (play on words). If not, I'll look through my pics and try to make another punny LO before Aug 31. The journaling under each pic tells who is in each pic. The PP is Basic Grey Green At Heart Veggies. It's double sided and the other side is plain purple. I decided to use this side because most of the pics are taken outside and the pink flowers draw out the pink in the pics! The 3 stickers are more of the EK Success Sticko Wedding Stickers- Wedding Day, Our Guests, and Bride & Groom. I hate that I didn't get a pic of everybody together and the grandchildren pic. I will definitely have to get some the next time we're all together! My Great Uncle Zane Grey was the only sibling of my grandmother to attend with his daughter, Sarah, both are in the first pic on the middle row on the left. I decided to use Kunstler Script Font for my grandmother's name & her husband, Mr. Raffael Farrow and the date because they didn't have wedding invitations and it was a wedding! I decided to use one of my heart stencils for the bride & groom's pic.

I had a good day off! I almost don't want it to end! LOL! I slept in until 10, watched the last half of The Karate Kid, and then went shopping. I went to Walmart and bought some more double sided tape, 2 for the price of 1! I bought a new watch from JC Penney, my old one was turning (tarnished) and left a green ring on my arm. I also rented Soul Surfer from Red Box. If you haven't seen this movie yet, you ought to! It's a Christian Family movie. Anna Sophia Robb, Dennis Quaid, Helen Hunt, and Carrie Underwood are part of the cast. It is a true story and a tear jerker. I won't say anything else about it, because I don't want to spoil the movie! I have one more wedding LO to scrap so be looking for it some time this week! Have a good weekend! TFL!

Reception LO Of My Grandmama's Wedding

I've been wanting to scrap these pictures and I've finally gotten the chance! I know I'm making the LOs out of order, but this will probably be the easiest out of all of them. I just realized I didn't put the date on the LO. I'll put it on one of the other LOs. The paper is Deja Views Sweet Romance Grey Hugs & Kisses (the other side is Grey Damask). The 2 stickers are EK Success Sticko Wedding stickers. I didn't want to add a lot of embellishments because the pictures took up a lot of room and the paper is busy enough! I didn't put any journaling under the pic of the food table in the middle, because it's pretty much self-explanatory! The plates, napkins, and punch cups (you can't really see the cups) were bought from Party Suppliers! I used my Xyron Create A Sticker to adhere the journaling strips to the LO. I may do some scrappin this afternoon, I haven't decided yet. Have a great Thursday! TFL!

Papercut LO

I made this LO for Scrappin-n-Chattin's Papercut Challenge. We were to cut out pieces from a patterned paper (PP) and use them as the embellishments. I included a part of the PP as a border because I like the ribbon on the paper. I cut the stars, yellow music note, and the 2 pieces out of the PP. The PP was originally an  8.5x11 sheet. I still have a lot of it left for the rest of the pics from the band concert. Haylee is my stepsister. I believe this was her Spring Concert in 2010. I wish I could have gotten rid of the red eye look before I developed the picture, but I don't think I was given that option. I need to ask Haylee about the concert before I scrap the rest of the pics. She's not here this weekend. I hope you all have a good weekend! TFL!

Remember When

I made this LO for Scrappin-n-Chattin's Silly Picture LO. The journaling states under the top picture that "Emily & I made sugar cookies with green food coloring for Christmas 2010." Emily was about to wash her hands in the top pic and then in the second pic "Scott is about to roll Emily's sleeves down." I decided not to add a whole lot to the LO since the paper has enough going on already. The sticker to the left of the pics says "Sissy" since both pics are of my sister Emily. I titled it "remember When" since it is a memory we will always share. There's not anything else to say about the LO. Look for another LO later!

Washington, DC

I made this LO for Scrappin-n-Chattin's Torn Paper Challenge. I torn the edges of the red/gray background paper. I attended March For Life January 22, 2002 when I was a student at Mid-Atlantic Christian University (Roanoke Bible College). I took my camera along and took pics like a typical tourist! I have hidden the journaling under the diagonal paper on the right in the middle.  I'm not sure what the building in the middle is. If anyone knows and comments that would be great! I don't have a prize, but looked online and couldn't find it anywhere! I believe the top picture is the Paul Revere Memorial, but I may be wrong. The bottom picture is of the US Capitol in the background. I chose the "dare to be different" tag since I attended the walk to stand against abortion. The journaling states basically what I have already said about the walk and what I know about the pictures. I have one more pic that I took that day so I may do another LO of just that pic soon. TFL and have a good weekend!

Bear Town Bears & My New Glasses

 I made this LO for Scrappin-n-Chattin's Home Town Challenge. We had to include something our home town is known for on our LO. The journaling states that "these are 3 of the 50 bears that Bern Town Bears has placed around New Bern. The bear is New Bern's symbol. Paw prints like the ones on this paper is how they are spotted around town." The bears are from top to bottom: Diverse Flag Bearer, Bearon de Graffenried, and River Ben. Baron de Graffenried is the founder of Historic New Bern & that's who the middle bear is named after.
I finally got my glasses yesterday, July 12! I have posted this pic on Facebook, but am not sure if all my followers are on there. I had to go in there to get them. They couldn't find them at first. They were in a different spot and hadn't been processed yet. I'm just glad I have them and can see again!

Balloon LO

I made this LO (layout) for Scrappin-n-Chattin's Balloon Challenge. The challenge was to include either balloons in your pic or balloons as an embellishment. I did both! The pictures are pretty much self-explanatory. They are all pictures of Tyler's 1st birthday party. He's in the bottom right corner playing with some toys.
I've been going without my glasses for almost 2 weeks now and wanted to scrap. I lost a screw in my glasses June 26 and have gone without them since. I went to the eye doctor June 29. I hope they call me tomorrow to let me know my glasses are in! They told me that they would take 7-10 business days. I didn't realize how much I rely on my glasses until now! I'm nearsighted so even the screen is blurry to me unless I sit almost on top of it. TFL!
