When on vacation...

Scrapbook like a maniac!!! Had a couple of kits I wanted to play with... so these are the results. Thought this was fun... its a kit created by one of my favorite scrapbookers... and totally emulates her style, with the libary cards and the rounded corners... fun stuff. Working on part 2 of the kit... another mini-book... then hope to do a little traveling around the state this week. Time off is like candy for the soul...

Its June!!

Oh, how I love this month! My birthday is in a week (with some fun vacation time)... it's the month Brad and I started dating... Martha is getting married...it's Father's day and Seth's birthday... time for great food from the garden (strawberries!!) and my flowers will start looking perky... and its just the most beautiful and glorious month in all of summer. Yikes... that's probably the most happy thoughts that have come from my head in a while. Thank god June is here... I never needed a happy month more. Brace yourself for more scrapbook posting soon... with some vacation time and fresh creativity following successfully finishing both wedding books... I have some catching up to do.

Vol. 2 Is complete!!!

Nearly 2 years later... both of my wedding albums are done. I was up until about 3am last night finishing it... but what can I say, when the creative juices are flowing... just go with it. Here's a small look-- you'll have to come see the whole thing!

This is super fun

Being a copy-blogger...

I loved this post from a scrapbooker I read today... I had to share it because I thought it was really inspiring.

1. Your home is more than the sum of its walls. Make it a sacred space.
2. Creativity is a lifestyle, not simply an activity. Let is expand you.
3. True forgiveness springs from love, not regret.
4. Learn something new. Emphasize the trying, not the succeeding.
5. Spend some time in the dirt. You'll be amazed at what nature can inspire.
6. You don't have to have a perfect body to feel great in it.
7. Define yourself by who you are, not the roles you play.
8. Find rejuvination in five minutes of silence.
9. Contribute to abundance. If you no longer need something, pass it on.
10. Find direction in your life by looking where you want to go, not where you don't.

"Kinky in the Kitchen"

What a fabulous day/night this was... Martha's getting married June 16th and wanted a blowout... So we rented a suite at the Doubletree for an afternoon shower... themed "Kinky in the Kitchen" (both traditional and fun shower gifts... you get the idea) and then took her to party like a rock star in Madtown. Hope you had a great time girl, because watching you was one of the best times ever!

Late night...

working on a series that will air later this week. Waiting for a producer to approve it at 12:10am right now. Last time I wrote a package this late, I was really proud of how it all turned out. Maybe it was the lack of outside distractions... or the exhaustion. Either way... I'm tired enough that this one better end up good.

Hoping to post some pics tomorrow of Martha's fab weekend... that is, once I get some sleep.
