I'm Finally Back, and have some Sneak Peeks!

I know it's been a while, but we've had a rough couple of months. We lost our beloved and precious baby girl, our English Bulldog "Speckles" on Dec. 27, and then my Father-in-law passed away the following day. Thanks to everyone for all of the prayers, thoughts and support. It is very much appreciated. I never knew how much you could love or miss an animal, she was so much more, she was my best friend.

Anyway, for better news. I have sneak peeks for the Main and LE kits from MyCreativeScrapbook for February. And they are packed with beautiful goodies. Here are a few peeks. Be sure to check back here and on the MCS site for the entire reveal on the 5th.

How about some Cosmo Cricket for EMI?

Looks like it's Mitten Weather at EMI!!!! I did these 2 layouts and mini with the CC collection. The first layout is our dd with our niece last week-end.

TheColorRoom palette #35




This is #35 for TheColorRoom, and I haven't gotten to join in for quite a while and I miss it! There is so much inspiration there! This palette caught my attention and I had some leftover pieces from MCS kits and had to give this one a try! I've used this photo several times, but it just totally cracks me up. I have some new ones this year, so you will get to see some new Santa pics next time, lol!!! I used lots of Prima goodies on here and some G45 paper. I even used the sketch this week!!! You should go check them out at http://www.thecolorroom.ning.com/

Lots of Christmas goodness, MCS December reveal!!!

I'll start off with the LE kit. It features lots of Creative Imaginations IOD Night Divine and MME Holly Jolly goodies!

This first page is Jenna with Speckles. I only added a few stickles to the beautiful die cut background paper along with a floral spray and the birdnest sticker! Simple page!!!

This one is Speckles looking out the window, I just loved the look of this photo! I used a punched border strip as a mask and inked the lace border on this one.
This is me with dh and the dogs! Speckles was so little then! She made Max look huge!!!
This is ME! Back in the sixties! Look at those vintage toys!!! And my hair, oh my gosh!!!
This is another one of me! I was really bashful! this is one of my favorite old pics, it shows the little table and chairs that my Daddy built for me that year from Santa Clause!!!
This is our tree a few years ago, I had to cut the angel from the beautiful paper! And I love that gorgeous Prima bloom!
This is the first of the Main kit pages! Lots of hand cutting on this one, I used some of the BoBunny Noel paper on this one mixed with some Teresa Collins, Jenna and Speckles again!

another one of me with the Main kit! I always hated when the tree had to come down, it was so sad! I asked my Dad if they went to Christmas tree heaven! LOL!
This is Patrick when he was little! Such a little cutie he was (still is) Love the beautiful butterfly.
This one used mostly Teresa Collins paper! This is Jenna and Patrick opening a present!
This is all three when they were small! I miss those days, so much fun with Santa!!!
Jenna with Santa, love this sweet picture, one of my favorites. I made the butterfly here, it didn't turn out quite as I had hoped, lol!!!
These are the layouts with the Creative kit, featuring Echo Park Merry Christmas and LYB Christmas Delight. This is another vintage photo of me with my Dad!!!
This is Jenna and Sam, and this was taken on the actual day that Sam proposed to her!!!
Jenna being her usual self, she always gets into the Holiday Spirit early!!!!
More pics from the same day!!!
Me again!!!
Patrick opening a present! Love the look in this picture!!!

Yeah, it's time for the December reveal at MyCreativeScrapbook, and this month is no dissappointment at all! Pam has crammed so much Christmas goodness into these kits, but they're very versatile also, you can use them for all kinds of photos! Please check out the DT work at http://www.mycreativescrapbook.com/ and I encourage you to visit the member's blogs for more detail as well!!!

Well, I got to work on 3 kits this month. The Main, Creative and LE, and all of them were just packed with all kinds of pretty, shiny, sparkly things! I had so much fun and it really put me in the Christmas spirit!!!!
