ONE LITTLE WORD BLOG CHALLENGES!

Use the word STOP
Take time to STOP and enjoy the little things!


I am so excited about this!!!
I have had these pictures for a year+ and didn't know how to scrap them!!! When I seen the challenge this title & these photos came to mind almost immediately!!!! AND I have had these little ANT brads for 5+ years I'm sure(got them in a brad swap).........sure is nice to put them to use!!!!! You might not be able to notice, but I have added a few ANT brads to the word STOP!!!! The challenge was just posted this morning....and I am DONE, WTG Donna(LOL)!!!!!






Use the word GO
Ready Set GO....After a long long wait the big day is finally here!

Not the greatest photo.....but I love it!!! Just before we were going to walk out the door to take Daylan to the school for the big departure, he remembered something and RAN to get it.......hence he is blurry in the photo!!!

Late getting this one done, but thought I'd post it ANYWAY!!! I'm thinking I'm not very happy with the balance of this layout....might have to re-do it....hmmmm????

HAPPY(surprise)30TH ANNIVERSARY RANDY & DEBBIE...great party!!!!!

Skinny people irritate me! Especially when they say things like, "You know, sometimes I just forget to eat."

Now I've forgotten my address, my mother's maiden name, and my keys, BUT I've never forgotten to eat. You have to be a special kind of stupid to forget to eat.

**note: I didn't write this, I received it as part of an e-mail with several other one liners.......this one made me chuckle!! **

On ANY GIVEN DAY during the month of MAY in good ole ALBERTA, on a one day road trip............chances are you will see ALL OF THIS!!!!

FATHER/DAD ALBUM PROJECT(class being held during the CAMROSE WEEKEND CROP)

I am happy to announce that Jayme from Scrapbooking Fanactics will be teaching the mini album class during the CAMORSE WEEKEND CROP!!
Jayme has been scrapbooking for 3.5 years... and passionately for 3.45 years! A life long crafter, it didn't take her long to figure out that scrapbooking was more than a hobby... it was a calling!
In between chasing her three year old daughter (and main muse) she teaches classes at the local scrapbook store in Spruce Grove, runs her own on-line store and writes the "Made in Canada" article for Canadian Scrapbooker magazine.
She is also preparing a class for the Crop for Kids event to be held this coming October.
Her style is usually a little messy, a little quirky and she loves to have fun playing with new techniques, but she has been known to try anything... She is excited to be on her way to Camrose and is looking forward to meeting everyone there.

CLASS INFO:
SATURDAY JUNE 9TH-$25
AFTERNOON(1-3 ish)class
FATHER/DAD ALBUM PROJECT
(just in time for Father's day)
