Happy New Year...

The new year is upon us, I am taking vacation until January 2 then I will be back with more scrapbook pages. I wish you all a safe, happy and prosperous new year!

'Twas The Night Before Christmas

Our family Christmas Eve get together, 2008!

Just Try To Pick The Lemons...

The lemons are ripe on our tree, I went out to take some pictures of them to post online only to be chased around by my dog, Bear. He has his squeaky hot dog all ready for me to play with!

Merry Christmas...

Christmas Day is here, I want to wish everyone a wonderful day.

Final last Page...

At the very last minute I decided to add a dog page to my son's scrapbook!

Photos...

Final page done for "Peter's" Scrap book, I finished it just in time to put it together for Christmas!

Feliz Navidad...

I received this Christmas card in the mail on Saturday! It is of my (ex) father in law and his partner and their dog. It made me smile, they look like they are having a great time. What a great creative Christmas card! Feliz Navidad to all!

All Grown Up...

I made this "All Grown Up" page for my son's scrap book. I am not sure if this will be the first page or the last page.

Presents for my Sisters...

I finished two scrapbooks, I for each sister.
They turned out very nice, I put them in the mail today.

Christmas Gifts...

I have everything I need to start assembling my Scrap Books. I will post the outcome as I finish.

Baby, Revisited...

After looking through my "Grandson" scrap book, I realized that the "Baby" black and white page was just a little too plain. I changed the background only and really like the results.

Love My Mom...

This page is "I Love My Mom". Pictures of Ethan and his Mom.

Baby Scrap Book Page...

Here is the latest addition to my Grandson's Scrap Book. The original photo I was given was black and white so I made the other photo black and white to match. I went for simplicity on this page.

Old Black and White Photos

I adore old black and white photos. To me, they seem to reveal something deeper.
Here is one of my Grandpa from the early '60's. I love this picture.
I am going to make a scrapbook after all the holidays are over with all the old black and white photos I have.

Sisters...Christmas Past

I added a page to my "Sisters" Scrapbook. "Christmas Past"
Wow! Do these pictures bring back memories!

Grandson Compilation...

A compilation of my favorite photos of my Grandson. The Star and yellow sticky notes are Ethan's own creations. Red is his favorite color!

Christmas Cards Mailed, Mission Accomplished!

Mailed all the Christmas cards today! Yea! Here is the picture that went out with the card.

North Pole, Alaska

Once again, I didn't get to make a scrapbook page, seems like the holidays are keeping me busy with other things. I found this old picture that my Dad took probably in 1958 or so of North Pole, Alaska. The quality isn't very good, but it does fit the Holiday Spirit. Happy Holidays!

Christmas Tree

I was busy putting up the tree and all the trimmings yesterday so I don't have new scrap book pages to post, instead, here are pictures of my tree, it is a beautiful silver tree that I fell in love with last year and had to have. I still love it this year! One picture is of it not lit up and the picture is when it is lit up. I'll be back with a scrap book page tomorrow!

First Day of School

My grandson had his first day of school in August. He is a kindergartener!

Sisters Forever...

I was trying to think of something creative and "on the cheap" to mail to my sisters for Christmas this year and came up with this scrap book. I hope they like it, we grew up in the 60's and 70's and we had some wild clothing styles! I will probably be adding more pages to this scrapbook over the next few days. This book was so much fun to make!

My Christmas Card Photo

I worked on my Christmas card photo this weekend and finally came up with the one I am going to send out.
The first one is pretty, but I like the simplicity and serene feel of the "Blue Snowflake" the best.

More 70's Stuff...

I found these funky pictures of me, we sure dressed sharp in the 70's! This page will be added to my "Retro 70's Scrapbook! How fun!

Baby's First Christmas...

First Christmas for Grandson, Ethan, 2003!

Girl Scout Forever...

I found this "groovy" picture of me as a "Cadet Girl Scout" from way back in 1974.
How great is this? I am adding this to my "Retro '70's" Scrap book.

I love the 70's

I found these old pictures of me and made a retro style scrap book from them. I will be adding more pages, I have a lot of old pictures.
Check out my 1971 Ford Maverik and my Gunne Sax dress!

Possible Christmas Card...

I am thinking of using this compilation for my annual Christmas Card, haven't decided yet if I like it, I will probably try a few other possibilities.

Seattle Vacation...

Here is one of the pages in my Seattle scrapbook, I have a lot more photos and still working
on the rest of the book.

Arizona Sunset...

I am still working on my latest Scrap Book creation, so in the meantime I will share this gorgeous sunset I photographed from my front yard.

Christmas Card for my Online Store...

This is the Christmas Card I made for my online store Cookie Cutter Corner.
I am also using a version of this for my logo until the holidays are over.

I don't have a scrapbook page to post today. Yesterday was Thanksgiving and I made dinner for my family. It was a great time! After everyone left and I cleaned up all the dishes I fell into bed and didn't do a scrap book page. I will have a new one tomorrow, everyone have a great Friday, if you go shopping I hope you get great deals! Here is one of my favorite pictures, it was taken last Christmas of my kids, my grandson and me.

Happy Thanksgiving to all...

I will be busy making Thanksgiving dinner today.
My whole family is coming and I am so excited.
Everyone have a blessed and safe Holiday.

Heavenly Father, kind and good, Thanks we offer for this food; For Thy love and tender care, For all the blessings that we share. Amen.

Just for fun...

Just for fun I made a tribute to my all time favorite cookies "Toll House".
My dog is watching over my stash!

Buddies...

My Son and Grandson, Peter and Ethan coloring and just having fun!

Cover to My Dog Scrapbook

I found this great poem/prayer and thought that it would make th perfect cover for my "Dog scrapbook".

50th Anniversary Celebration

Halloween Pictures

I was browsing through some old pictures to make more scrap book pages and found these of me dressed up as Marge Simpson. I won 1st place in the office contest! Marge really is my alter ego!

Wedding Pictures

These pages were made from candid photos taken by wedding guests.
