Happy Halloween!

Here's a layout of Halloween 2005 when Austin was 5. He loved his dinosaur costume and enjoyed all of the activities that went along with Halloween at his preschool. They decorated pumpkins and after the parade at school he was able to take his home. He insisted I take it to work and put it on my desk so that explains why there is a picture of me on this layout! I completed this layout for a challenge I hosted on the TSI Forum during the month of October and thought with the holiday approaching it was a good time to share it on here! Karon

The HUNT is on!

The trick or treat hunt has started at the yuku forum. Time to get a bunch of free files!

All You Need is the Right Hat

We have always gotten a kick out of Austin and the silly "costumes" he came up with when he was younger. Here are some photos of him being silly at about 5 years old with various items he's put together to be someone important! I used another one of Joanne6523's N'Titled files to add a finishing touch to this layout. If you are interested in the file, you can get it and 20 other files in one download for only $10 at That's Scrap, Inc. It's a steal and you only have until October 31 to get it at this price! File formats include AI, KNK, GSD, SVG, bitmap, EPS and several are available as WPC.

Too Much Fun?

My two boys are so sick today, Throwing -up, UGH!
They all went to ValleyScare last night. Lots of rollercoasters, treats and scares, so hopefully it is all from that.
They all did stay up way too late the night before too, Nathaniel had a sleepover birthday party with 7 friends. Lots of treats then too...
Crossing my fingers...

Keep Checking the blog...You can get these soon!

A Visit from Uncle Larry

Last month we had a surprise visit from Craig's Uncle Larry. We haven't seen him in several years and it was a real treat! The kids just adored him and I think the feeling was mutual!Craig's Dad & Uncle Larry had so much fun chatting away with each other talking about everything under the sun. It was really nice to see him and for our kids to get to know him. Here are a some of the many pictures we took with him that day:

As you can see, Uncle Larry has the best personality!!!

My Little Superhero

Here's another layout using one of Joanne6523's files that I did at our scrapbooking camp earlier this month. I cut the really cute file (Superhero) out on my KNK and putting the layout together was lots of fun! I wanted to draw attention to the best of the 4 photos so I lifted it up with foam dots to catch your eye. I'd love to know what you think!

Happy Birthday Nathaniel!

I can't believe you are 11!!

Haunted House Fun

Ducky gave our forum the most adorable file to use for our monthly challenge.
Here is my rendition of it. I have the cutest charms to add yet and of course..lol, pictures
:O)

Today I'm Gonna Be....

Here is an interesting and simple KNK file that went perfectly with my son's "Cowboy Day" at preschool. It's part of the N'Titled Membership at That's Scrap, Inc. and was created by Joanne6523. Austin had so much fun that day dressing up like a cowboy. I was given the photo of the preschoolers taking a pretend nap after eating their cowboy-style meal and it really added some character to the layout : )

Artist @ Work

I decided to start working on some of the photos in my son's book that are strictly preschool-related.  I had a lot of fun making this page for a couple of reasons.  The title was FUN!!!  But I also dug thru his box of preschool papers...yeah that box where I have saved everything and this was from what 4 years ago?  Well it paid off.  I had this picture of him painting on an art easel in class and I figured out from all of his papers in the tub what exactly he was "creating."  I took a photo of his painting and put it on the easel that I also created to embellish the page.  This is something I plan to do for both of my kids' artwork.  I wish I could save it all but I am sure documenting a photo of it in a scrapbook will be so much more appreciated than in a box somewhere in the future.  OK credits... The fabulous title is by Joanne6523 and you can find it  for sale @ That's Scrap, Inc.  Do you want that easel?  Rita of Designs by Sky created that file and you can also find it @ That's Scrap, Inc. 

File Conversions

Wheew! The file conversion is quite a process! But I think I have most of it figured out! I do need some additional help with SVG, so if anyone wants to test some out for me, give a holler!
