Paperclipping's National Scrapbook Day Event!





I have found myself to have some time to be creative, and I was getting ready to roll when I realized I might be able to participate in a fun challenge at the same time! Noell over at Paperclipping.com has issued some challenges, and these pictures represent my offering to join in on the second challenge she's posted so far. I am to choose a color scheme and embellishment that represents myself, so, here you have it!

I chose this lovely set of papers from K&Co., and I'm using flowers as my embellishment. I'm relating with the flowers currently since I feel my creativity is blooming in several areas of my life, scrapbooking being only one of them.

So without further ado, let me get at this project! Woo Hoo!

New Cricut Cartridge!





I still had money from my birthday- - -last year! Woo Hoo! I decided to get this amazing cartridge. I am so excited! I love all the shapes it will cut. I can't wait to play more with it. Since Emily will be turning 13 on Sunday (I know, I'm fainting too, HOW can she be that old?!), I first played with the cartridge to make these crowns for her birthday. So fun!
