finally...

here are the other two layouts that i did last week. or was it two weeks ago? i can't remember, life seems to go by in lightening speed! anyway, i had fun and really enjoyed getting into all of my old supplies.

 

blog revamp...

recently, i have been going through a sort of ... "identity crisis". i have been feeling lost in who i am, what i want to be doing with my life and trying to figure out what will make me happy. when i go a long stretch without doing anything creative, which is exactly what has been happening, i get sad. so i am going to make a point of doing at least one creative thing a week. of course, daily would be ideal, but because i know that is a too lofty of a goal, i will stick with once a week. with that, i will try to post my creations along with photos of my family, things that inspire me whether it be art, nature, furniture, food... whatever. this is a photo of Kara, my youngest. she is such a ham! last November, we spent a few days in Monterey, her souvenir was this funny little bird. i love how serious she looks. :)

a few more...

i have been so busy with work, driving my kids to various activities and just being a mom that i haven't had time to post these 2 layouts that i did on sunday. i am really loving using paint on my layouts and am excited to do more. 

punky scraps challenge #47

i decided to scrap yesterday! haven't done that in probably a year. in doing so,  i realized how much i really love scrapbooking. it feeds my creative side and i love to preserve the memories of my family in this way. with this layout i used challenge #47 at punky scraps. this type of composition is so much my style so this layout came together in just a few minutes. love that!
