Adorable Boy LO

Awe, how I adore this ultrasound picture of my little boy!!  It is so amazing how clear you can see his little face!  I pretty much can't wait until he arrives so I can do a side by side comparison!  Only 3 weeks left until his due date!  It'll be here before I know it!

Laughter & Love LO

Gina Huff from Weeds & Wildflowers Design has created some awesome papers!!  I love having a variety of white and kraft papers!!  One of the great things about these papers is that with the variety of texture it's super fun to layer them up and create your own unique paper!  For this layout I used the white wood textured paper (which seems to be very "in" at the moment) with a kraft paper that had a neat inked design layered on top.  In between these two layers I have a polka dot paper that has been blended and faded in my attempt to look like the wood has been inked or painted.  Hopefully, you enjoy these papers as much as I did!  I think I'll end up using a few of these papers on my P365 as well!

Pure Joy LO

Crystal from Inspired Designs has created a couple more template packs!!  I know why she's titled them "I Love Templates"!!  I saw this template and for some reason it occurred to me that I just had to use The Happiness Collection from Weeds & Wildflowers Design!  This is definitely not my usual layout but I think it's fun and gets the happiness of this snow day across!!

P365 Week 5 and Week 6

So going back and checking the previous work I have done for this years P365, I came to the realization that I only got up to week 4 before I feel off the wagon!!!  Ugh!!!  Seriously, usually around this time of year I'm still going pretty strong!  Well, being a part of Weeds & Wildflowers Design's Creative Team has giving me back my motivation!!  So I've decided to go back to where I left off (week 5) and move on from there.  Hopefully, I'll finish this year - fingers crossed!!!

One of the things I really like about these templates is how versatile they are AND how easy it is to modify when needed!  One thing that holds me back each year is that some days I have a bunch of great photos and other days I have NO photos!!  I've decided to not be hard on myself.  I plan on doing whatever is going to work for that particular week!!  I also love having a journal card and just documenting the highlights for the week, rather than trying to jam in info from each day!  Some days we do lots of interesting things and other days I struggle to even remember what happened that day!

One of the great systems that Gina, the designer over at Weeds & Wildflowers Design, has created is the Simple Squares!  Not only does she make these elements in square format but in horizontal and vertical format too!  They're perfect for Project Life and her own templates too!  I was able to sample her newest Simple Square creation - Simple Squares #31 & Word Art Chalk Brush Set!!  This awesome bundle allows you to customize your word art and cards with different colors of chalk!  I actually customized mine a little bit more by changing the word art to white and putting it on a chalkboard background!

P365 Week 9 and Week 10

Here is another attempt at P365!!  I am SO terrible with this project!!  Seriously EVERY year I attempt this challenge with the high hopes of getting an entire year completed!!  This year I set up my own template and had the idea that I would just do the same 2 layouts throughout the whole year.  I was able to get several weeks finished but fell off the wagon!  Sadly, every other year I was able to make it at least to the fall!!  BUT now that I am on the CT of Weeds & Wildflowers Design, I have decided to make another attempt!  Maybe this will be the push that I've needed to get this huge project done for once!!

Here are my first p365 layouts using W&W amazing kits and templates!!  I am hoping to be able to go back and redo the weeks I've already completed and also to complete the several weeks that I've missed!

You Are My Happy LO

All these lovely kits I've had the chance to work with recently have me yearning for Spring to show her face here in Anchorage!  We still have snow everywhere - especially after it dumped several inches the last few days.  Nature did try to trick us by making us believe we were having an early melt down and giving us a super mild winter, but I knew it was too good to be true.  It will likely be well into April before our snow is gone.  So what's a girl to do with all these beautiful spring-timey kits??  Why dig out my summery pictures from years past!

For this layout, I started with an amazing template from Inspired Designs.  I knew I wanted to use this particular template and of course I was going to use JoyLynn's newest kit 'Be You'.  What I had no clue about was what photo I was going to use!  I'm the only girl in my household, so I often have to be careful of how girly I make my pages.  I love how the greens and oranges of this kit allowed me to use a picture of my son (one that I actually forgot I had AND have not scrapped with)!

Happiness LO

I'm so super excited that I made it onto the Creative Team for Weeds & Wildflowers Design!!! I can't believe it!  I have always loved the amazing kits full of beautiful paper designs and unique word art!  So here is my first layout done as a W&W CT member!!

The first kit I have had a chance to work with is The Happiness Collection - Bundle!  It's so beautiful!  I actually plan on using this kit to scrap my son's 3rd Birthday pictures (on the 26th)!!
