December 2011

December. Wow I can not believe another year has come and gone. Its been awhile since I posted last and I really have no excuse but LIFE. Lots has happened this past year but I'll post that another time. Maybe closer to the New Year. I am starting December off with a bang and a New page. Last year I started a new tradition for myself. I started creating a "December" book. There is so much that happens everyday in December and many things get missed or not properly documented in our scrapbooks. Most people, myself included tend to just document Christmas day or Christmas celebrations, and not the things that happen everyday. Things like, baking, school functions, hot chocolate and snow days and there are so many more things we all do in December that are missed out. SO MANY SCRAPPING OPPORTUNITIES!!! So to rectify this I started a December book. Last year I did 8x8 pages and loathed it so this year I am going to my original scrap style and using 12x12 pages. So here it is page 1. My oldest is in Kindergarten and yesterday (Nov.30th) they decorated their class Christmas tree. He was insistent today that we go take a picture of it and his decoration that he contributed. I also couldn't pass up the opportunity to take a pic of the weather and our lovely snow covered house. Its starting to put me in the Christmas spirit. Products used: Close to My Heart Wonderland Paper, Close to My Heart Art Philosophy Cricut Cartridge, Dun Yan Cricut Cartridge, Dollarama ribbon, smooches pearl spritz.

5 Years I love you babe!


Our Song
Everthing by Lifehhouse

Find Me Here
Speak To Me
I want to feel you
I need to hear you
You are the light
That's leading me
To the place where I find peace again.
You are the strength, that keeps me walking.
You are the hope, that keeps me trusting.
You are the light to my soul.
You are my purpose...you're everything.
How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
You calm the storms, and you give me rest.
You hold me in your hands, you won't let me fall.
You steal my heart, and you take my breath away.
Would you take me in? Take me deeper now?
How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
And how can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
Cause you're all I want, You're all I need You're everything,everything
You're all I want your all I need You're everything, everything.
You're all I want you're all I need. You're everything, everything
You're all I want you're all I need, you're everything, everything.
And How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
How can I stand here with you and not be moved by you?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?
Would you tell me how could it be any better than this?

What I've been up to!!
















I read recently that when you scrap and you do a set of pages you should do cards with the scraps. I also read recently to do cards in batches which I am totally a fan of. These Cards are a result of both! The set of pages are of Carvers Second summer and his adventures that summer!
Pic#1 and pic#5 are a set of batch cards that I made after making one of my best friends Birthday card (hers was a bit different)
Pic #4 is my hubbys birthday/fathers day card the inside said "your 3 lil monkeys love you" it was made from scraps of a set of pages that I still need to post pics for.
Pic #3 is my brothers birthday card (ditto number 3 done with scraps)

Its been Awhile






Ive been MIA and in doing so I havent been able so share my creations! This in one I worked on in October. A few friends of mine and myself got together and did a Card exchange. We all picked a subject and had to make 50 cards. Being the keener I am I made 100! I ended up with 20 packs of 10 cards each (all different) so I put the packages together and sent them out as gifts. Everyone loves homemade cards so it was a hit. I will do this every year and start way earlier. Heres a peek at the ones I did. Baby Boy and Baby Girl
