Layout using my Bold Sophistication kit--Happy Mother's Day

Hello all.  Happy Mother's Day!  I hope all the moms and caretakers out there are getting pampered and receiving extra love and goodies on this day to celebrate Moms everywhere!  I woke up to my kids giving me huge hugs and cards to celebrate!  They are out right now getting me something so I have some free time to do some designing and scrapbooking--something I also love.


As many mothers and caretakers know, we have a tough but so rewarding job--we have to do it all--manage time, schedules, clean house (well it is a goal anyways), love our children unconditionally, and discipline too along with having other responsibilities like a professional job (or two or three :)) and we do this all while dealing with pets and dear husbands too along with the rest of the world.  Moms really wear different hats! 

The card my 8 year old son gave me was pretty short but still heartfelt.  He said Thanks for going to all his practices, games of all the sports he is in.  He also told me "You are the b--e--s--t mom ever in the world!"  So sweet right?  This card reminded me of a layout which one of my fans sent me the other day.  She used one of my kits "Bold Sophistication" in a unique way--to show off  baseball with her little leaguer.  Here is her adorable layout which I wanted to show off.  (Perfect for Mother's Day right?) 

You can purchase this kit for under $2.00 at these stores:

Photogenic moment A First for Our Son-- Layout using Awake Spring

I just completed my second layout using my kit "Awake Spring" using photos I just took a few days ago.  (I am glad to get some current scrapbooling done even though I am about 8 or so years behind in all my other years worth of photos and memories!) It is awesome to have some time to myself to scrap!!!!!!!

Some background behind this photo!  Of course I love to take photos (as my dh and the rest of my family will attest to), but usually I end up asking my daughter to pose because she is more accomodating and actually enjoys all the attention!  Our son, on the other hand, usually is the one with a scowl on his face in photos or he is the one who is conveniently looking away in every shot!  It just so happened that he and I were able to spend some one on one time together at a local park while his sister was on a hike with the girl scouts.  We stayed behind and just hung out.  I asked him to pose in front of the beautiful budding trees and as the afternoon progressed, he actually asked me to take his picture!  What a shocker!  I, without hesitation, grabbed my phone and took a quick shot and this was the result...his first smile for the camera.  What a proud moment for mom!

Spring Time - A Special Time to Enjoy Nature, Family

Happy National Scrapbooking Day everyone!  I decided to take some time away from designing to focus on my own scrapbooking for a change!

Spring has finally sprung here in Michigan!  We have had an entire few days of unseasonably warm weather in the 70's and even 80's!  There is nothing I enjoy more than to grab the kids and go outdoors to enjoy some fresh air. It is nice to take some time to just have fun and not worry about all those day to day tasks and hassles!  It is even better that I can have some time available to spend with my children! 

Just the other day, I dropped off our daughter at a girl scout outting at a local park and I had some rare time to spend with my son all to myself!  It was truly a special time!  It gave me some time to just watch him and give him some space to just enjoy being a boy having fun!  Here is a layout which I created to share with all of you...

Journaling:  Spring Time is the perfect time to  forget about everything on the “To Do” List and just spend some quality time enjoying the things that matter most....

Hope you too can enjoy some special moments with those close to you....
