I've been scrapbooking for over 10yrs. now. I really enjoy creating layouts, mini albums and altered items for my family and friends. I love to introduce and teach other to our wonderful creative world.

New Year's Blog Hop

Come join Scrapbook Challenge's New Year's Blog Hop! To welcome the New Year and meet the new Scrapbook Challenges Design Team & reconnect with some of the returning DT Members. As well as, our new home over on ning.

Where have I been.....

I know that I haven't posted in a while.

Life has gotten really crazy for me lately. Let's see -- we moved to a new place in October. All the kids got real sick, they are all well now. DH got really sick - we had a real scare with him. Thank God! he is all better now. I have been well real sick myself. No telling when I'll be better.

Then the holidays came and we got right into celebrating that I just didn't stop by to post. Now a new year will be here and I am hoping for all good things.
