Oh it has been so long since I have scrapbooked. I have had so little time to do any.  I feel like I am constantly cleaning! The little bit that has gotten completed, hasn't made its way onto my little spot on the web.  How did I not post a single thing last year!  Yikes!  I have been doing many other projects for my home, for girl scouts (I'm a leader for my daughter's troop) and I am teaching art at my kid's school and that has been quite the adventure.  Their district got rid of art teachers 40 years ago, so parents come in and teach to fill in the gap.  This year I am going in for my son's first grade class, my daughter's fourth grade class and another fourth grade class where no parent would come and do it.  I did this last year to and now I've got a good system going and I have a bit more time.  Plus my littlest guy can keep himself occupied now, so I have found a bit more time. I found a scrapbooking challenge , that spar...

This is my last layout for the Memory Nest .  I can't believe it!  It's been fun creating these layouts, but I'm ready for a bit of a scrapbooking break.  I've got lots going on and a few non scrapbooking projects that I would like to get around to doing.  Anyways, this layout was fun.  I actually was able to get a little scrap piece of fabric for my daughter's Halloween costume onto the layout.  I also made the little flair with my button maker.  I need to remember to make more buttons.  They are so much fun to make.

Happy Monday!  Wow was last week crazy.  I experienced more drama than I ever imagined and I am so glad for a brand new week.  They super short version is that some people got very emotional that a song wasn't going to be included in a winter sing-a-long.  The full version takes me about 20 minutes to say and I don't even know how long that would take to type, so lets just enjoy my layout for the memory nest .  I used a bunch of stamps and colored them in on this layout.  I was in a very stampy mood.  My favorite part is how the title turned out.  The little lamp post sticker was just a perfect fit. Normally I do a pumpkin patch layout, but we never made it to the pumpkin patch this year.  We had too many activities and the one day we could go, the weather was a disaster.  We had a solid downpour all day long and that's no fun when you have a baby. I did try to make up for it by going around my neighborhood and getting some pho...

Happy Monday!  I've got my latest Memory Nest layout here.  My littlest guy loves to wack on drums, and when we went to the play place at the zoo we found a couple of drums  He had such a blast.  He gives me some of the best smiles.  I didn't really have too many musical embellishments when making this layout, so I painted some notes and used some musical paper to make a little frame.  The sequence circle ended up reminding me of drums.  It's fun when something works out like that!

Happy Monday!  I just love this happy layout. I found some fun rainbow strips of paper I had laying around and I knew they were perfect for my   Memory Nest  layout.  I've been looking at a bunch of my past layouts and I realize that black and white combined with rainbows tends to make some of my most favorite layouts.  It sure is hard to get a lot of layouts done lately.  My little Benji bunny likes to keep me up lots, so I've been functioning on very little sleep.  It's hard to scrapbook when all you want to do is take a nap

So it might look like three layouts, but really it's only one Memory Nest layout that I have for you.  My layout features a pull tab that slides the photo to be three different ones of my littlest one falling asleep. I'm really glad this worked out so well.  It's been forever since I've done an interactive page.  I hope you enjoy my take!
