Good Luck Green Wave!

My granddaughter will be cheering her team, the Newark Catholic Green Wave, to victory Friday morning as they play in the State Football Finals.   What an exciting thing!  My granddaughter, Eryn, is the middle one in the middle row.  I know she is very excited about this game.

 Good Luck Green Wave!

It's not always merry.......

Hope you're having a good week.  Wow, it's a busy one for me.  Lots of things going on.  I'm already looking forward to the weekend.  I'm sure all of you have weeks like that, too!

I must say, this is a classic Christmas photo.  What a great photo opportunity with Santa and 2 of my nephews, until one of them decided to pout, and the other is screaming!  Oh well, these are the best kind of photos.  I created this layout using the November sketch from Once Upon a Sketch and the December kit from C'est Magnifique.

A Sweet Girl

Just a quick post today, along with a recent layout.  My little niece, Callie, is such a cutie!  I love this big smile from her when she discovered that she could put her hands on her head.  I created this layout using the December kit from C'est Magnifique Kits.

Sweet Callie

Oh gosh, if you could only smell the pumpkin pies that are baking in the oven right now.  The fresh smell of cinnamon, ginger, and cloves is amazing!  While I'm waiting for these Thanksgiving pies to bake, I thought I would show you one of the layouts I completed using the December kit from C'est Magnifique kits.  This is my very sweet niece, Callie, and I'm so excited that I will get to see her tomorrow.   I love this paper from the Silent Night collection from Pion Designs.  Those angels in the corner looking over her are beautiful!

Wishing all of you a blessed Thanksgiving (and if you're from another country, think of all us Americans stuffing ourselves tomorrow!).

C'est Magnifique December Kit Preview

I have been SO busy lately and have had virtually no free time to scrap.  But I know all of you go though periods like that, too.  I have started working on my design team projects for C'est Magnifique Kits and I am in love with this kit!  Nothing like a new kit to get me motivated to scrap again.  The December kit will feature paper from Pion Designs and it's the entire line of "Silent Night".  Here's a look at the stunning paper:


Can't wait to show you my layouts -but it's not quite time for that yet!
