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!

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.

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.

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!

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.
