Always Up To Snow Good - BoBunny

 Good Morning!! Today on the BoBunny Facebook Page I'm sharing a layout I did of my two little monkeys that are "Always Up to Snow Good". The Whiteout collection was so fun to use! All those sparkly embellishments, OH MY! And so many fun little pieces to tuck here and there. I could have played with this one all night, but had to stop, lol... Hope you can pop by our facebook page and say hi!! Have a good one... until next time!

Daisy Doodle I Love You

Morning Scrappy Friends!! I thought I would take a little break from design work and just have some fun with my cameo. I found this fun sketch at Creative Scrappers and just couldn't resist. I knew right away I wanted to play with the Happy Tails collection from BoBunny and scrap a photo of my sweet Daisy. I couldn't find the right cut file, so I decided to make my own. I thought I would also share them with you in case you have a furry friend you wanted to scrap! The link is below. I laugh because Daisy is such a sweet girl and this photo is of the ONE AND ONLY thing she has ever done that was bad. She took a flower from the studio and went high tailing it into the living room! But she looked so cute I couldn't resist taking a photo first and ten took the flower away from her, lol. Hope your all having a wonderful day!

Let It Snow! - ScrapStufzz

Morning!!! I have some exciting news to share! Over the Christmas holidays a dear friend of mine Stacia invited me to join her challenge blog Scrapstuffz "Inspired By Challenges" . Every month they have a new inspiration photo and a fabulous prize up for grabs. You have the whole month to play along. Fun right? When I saw the inspiration photo I saw pinks and greens. I was a little stumped. I asked Hubby what he saw and he said "blues and browns". Blue and Brown remind me of winter, so I thought I would take a spin on things and do a winter layout! It's so fun to see what everyone sees in a photo. Do you see colours? Patterns? I know I see colours first now, lol. So I hope you can stop by and play along with us!

Here is the inspiration photo!

Autumn Traditions

 Good Morning and Happy Monday! I have a new layout to share using this weeks sketch from Let's Get Sketchy. I love Ashley's sketches and this one was fun to play with. It left tons of room for some creative freedom. The first thing I noticed was the borders and that's when I decided the Farmhouse collection I had on my desk would be fun to use. I had this photo of Daisy and I from our fall photo shoot at the lake. I challenged myself to NOT use a plain or neutral background.. I was a little nervous, but was really happy with the way it turned out! Hope you can pop on over and play along with us this week!

Cherish These Moments - Quick Quotes

Good Morning Everyone!!! It's Lynn here today and I'm so excited to get to share my first layout with you that I did for Quick Quotes.  I chose the Cracklin' Rose collection to do my project. I love the warm rich colors and I thought it would be perfect for the photo of my daughter cuddling our new puppy Daisy.

I loved the background paper so much that I used the 6x6 Paper Pad to add some strips to the sides of the photo. I also loved using the Mocha Mama PowderPuff Chalking Ink to add a vintage look to my photo and the paper strips. I used the left over pieces from the strips to punch out some flowers for my layout. Thanks so much for letting me share my project. I hope you all have a wonderful day!

Just Me and My Girl Daisy

Today I have one more layout to share. Last week I was at Urban Scrapbook and my sweet friend Pat who also co-ordinates our design team says "Come with me..do I have a challenge for YOU", lol. Oh I love when she says that, lol. When I first saw this Prima line, I had no clue where to even start. One of the sheets had triangles, so I thought..hmmm maybe cut those out and layer them? The next sheet had the flowers on it..hmmm maybe fussy cut those and crackle them? I used some pop dots and layered them over the pattern that was on the third sheet which I used for my background. I'm still trying to figure out just how much crackle something needs, lol. In the end I thought it does look a little "busy" but I did complete the challenge!!! Now I'm tapping my fingers and trying to decide what to do next!!

Happy Monday my friends! I love Mondays! Most people love Friday, but Monday's mean a nice quiet house, time to scrap and a time to breathe after a hectic weekend.

I always seem to have a photo handy of those two cute doodles, and with the Prima Sun Kiss Collection, it all just came together.

Everyday Memories

Good Morning Everyone! I LOVE Mondays because it means a new sketch reveal at Let's Get Sketchy!! Our design team was hard at work yet again coming up with some unique and creative takes on the sketch. One day Noah came for a visit with his bubble blower. Oh my did the doodles have fun. They chased the bubbles around the yard. It was a surprise to see Noah, and it just made my day. There is nothing like hanging out in the sun with a two year old, his bubble blower and two puppies.

The "little things' are not so little after all - Frosted Designs

It's Tuesday..and that means another sketch reveal at Frosted Designs. I took the two page sketch and made it into a single page layout. That's what I love, it's how you interpret the sketch. I usually try to stick pretty close to the original, but this one I wanted to try something a little different. I'm excited to see what everyone does for this one. I just had to scrap the pics of the puppies on Mothers Day playing in the sprinkler. They thought it was the funnest thing ever. We just sat on the deck an laughed. We had two soaking wet Doodles! They would dry off, and just run right back in the water. It was the highlight of my day!

Life is Better with Friends

Today our theme at Practical Scrappers is "stitching on your layout". I'm a huge fan of sewing, so this was perfect for me. I'm really trying to use up my stash and with this Echo Park line, I have the whole collection, so it was an easy choice what to use. It's perfect for boy layouts. This is Noah playing with Daisy and Jax on Mothers Day. The puppies just follow him around everywhere. They are quite the little threesome. That's why...Life is Better with Friends, even if they are puppies! I used a sketch from a new site I found called ScrapFriends for some inspiration. Hope everyone is having an awesome scrappy day!

Time of My Life - Scrap It With A Song

This week at Scrap It With A Song the song is "Good Riddance/ Time of Your Life" by Greenday. Well..I'm having the time of my life with my new pups. I've never laughed and smiled so much. The "adventures" they get in to are priceless. This is a photo of myself and Daisy out at the lake on my birthday just hanging out and walking by the lake. I spend so much more time outside now too. We take walks or just sit out on the patio enjoying the sunshine. As the song says " It's something unpredictable, but in the end it's right"...that is my new motto for life! Hope you can stop by and join us this week! I should also mention that my design came from the beautiful sketch at Stuck On U Sketches! I was happy to get to play along with them this week.

Unique Crafters Challenge # 3 Mud = Bath

At Unique Crafters this month our challenge is Ribbon and Fibers. What better way to dress up a layout of a dirty puppy than to use ribbon right? Makes her look pretty, lol. Oh my Daisy!! She decided to dig a hole big enough for a swimming pool while the snow was melting and came in the house COVERED in mud!! Well...mud equals bath right? She thought the bath tub was the funnest experience EVER!  Gosh I'm having so much fun with her. I used some of the Stella Rose line of paper that Katie at Unique sent me too. Nice bright spring colors! So come on by Unique and join in the fun..I'm sure you all have some extra ribbon around your scrap rooms!! There is a main prize winner and two runners up...so lots of goodies to give away.

How Sweet It Is To Be Loved By You - Creative Scrappers

I was so honored to be a Guest Designer today at Creative Scrappers. I got to work with a sketch by the extremely talented Amarilys Doria . If you know me, you know I love doilies and layers, so I was so excited to get to play with this sketch. My little Daisy was at the lake with us for four days, and boy did we have fun. I just love this little girl, and I'm blessed she loves me back triple fold.

Spring Fever - Scrap it With A Song

This week at Scrap It With A Song our song was "Spring Fever" by Elvis Presley. Well....Daisy had spring fever when the snow melted and she found "MUD". Like I say... Mud = Bath. I guess we are lucky that Daisy loves baths so much. I used my new Momenta paper that I won and used the sketch #202  from Creative Scrappers to do this layout. It was fun to a bright colorful layout. It was one of the few I did where I used only paper, lol. I love cutting out flowers, maybe I'm becoming a "fussy cutter" after all, lol. Have a wonderful Spring day everyone...and if you catch the "fever", stop by and join in our challenge!

This is what life is all about - ScrapFIT workout #66

A few weeks ago we went to the cabin for my birthday. It was Daisy's first time there. It's one acre of fenced pure puppy playground. Millions of pinecones, billions of sticks, and no end of places to play. There wasn't a moment when Daisy didn't have a stick in her mouth. We must have gone for at least 30 walks in four days, lol. What I love about her and what dogs can teach us is to live in the moment. Enjoy each and every minute of every day. No stress, no worry. I call her my therapy dog because I'm learning so much about myself and she is teaching me so many things. This layout I did for our challenge this week at ScrapFIT. Our creative trainer Diana challenged us to use the following color palette to create a project. Join us this week for some fun and great prizes from My Divine Inspiration Etsy Shop.

Daisy's New Brother Jax

Here's the story of Jax!

On Tuesday night my breeder Sonia called and said a family had brought this little male puppy back to them because they just weren't ready for a puppy. They only had him one day!! She knew we eventually wanted to get Daisy a playmate so she asked if I wanted to come see him. We arranged for us to bring him home for the day to see how things went. Well...I saw this little guy, my heart went "thump" and that was it, lol. So now I say we have "Oodles of Doodles". So everyone meet Jax, a nine week old, 15 pound goldendoodle!! ( And a big thanks to my sister Char for the adorable photo of him).
