I know that I have been absent recently but there has been a lot that has been happening around here so scrapping has been set on the back burner along with having the time to blog. I will however be on the blog this week . I am participating in the Grillin blog hop this weekend!! I am working on that project this afternoon. So we have been having so much fun here at our house and that is what has had my attention lately!!! First of all we got a Pool!!!!! YEY YEY YEY YEY!!!! So here it is right after Kevin and I and my dad got it up. It wasn’t too hard but you definitely need 3 people. Kevin Making sure everything is level!! This is a pool from Sears that is a lot like the ones at Wal-mart. We could not find the size we wanted at wally world so we bought this at Sears. It is a 24x52. Here I am being silly, but as you can see there are a lot of wrinkles in these pools so you have to get in and as the water starts filling up you walk around and get all the wrinkles out. I...

Thanks for all of the comments about the layout. I am going to frame it as soon as I get a frame. I am also going to look at the shadow boxes as frames. Tomorrow I will be posting about a new blog hop that is starting Saturday and …. I am actually apart of it. I am so excited so come back and read about it tomorrow!!! Many of you requested the tutorial for the flower so I put one together and I must tell you that I sound slightly rough because I was under the weather and I had to ask my sweet little boy to help me film and then filmed some of it by myself. So here you go I hope you can understand it ok. I again am just adding the link here until I can get my high speed internet. Click here for the video!!
I just have to say Thank you to everyone for the wonderful comments and for voicing their opinions on this layout. The official decision is that I am going to frame it!!! I really liked the comment that talked about setting it up as like an easel Frame so that I can switch it up with new layouts!! Thanks for that one. I also wanted to let you know that I will be posting a short video tutorial tomorrow for the flower. This time it is blue and so pretty so don’t forget to come and check that out!!! By the way I added an email box on the upper left of the blog so that any time I post something you can be notified by email!!! Thanks again everyone and have a blessed day!!!
Yes, this is coming a bit late in the day but I unfortunately am suffering from a very yucky sinus cold :-( and it took me a long time to get it done and then finally up on the blog. I have shared with ya’ll that I am trying to get my Disney pictures scrapped from our vacation 2 years ago!!! ( I know that is pretty sad isn’t it) But hey praise the Lord for Photo Cd’s that last for-e-ver. ( have you ever seen the sandlot!! With the guy that says forever really slow, it’s a hoot) Anyway….I am trying to work diligently on this album so today I worked on one of the pages that have to do with having dinner with the Princesses at Epcot. I learned a new technique for paper flowers using my Plantin Schoolbook Cart for this page. And I must say….. that I so totally love it!!!!!!!!!! Sometimes I think that ya’ll must think I am a cross between a valley girl and a southern gal!! With all of my so’s you all’s and ya’lls. To tell you the truth I am originally from Upstate NY but Florida is of...
