All About the Stars

Hola!! :P

We just got finished watching The Bucket List.... have you seen it? Omg it's amazing!! I just loved it, sad at the end though :(

Finished up another challenge for the Summertime Crop that is being hosted by Cristal called "It's all about the stars" It's a card challenge and you have to use stars somewhere on your card... I went through all of my papers and can you believe I only had a whopping 2 pattern papers that had stars on them???? Well I really like how this turned out!! And by going through my mom's stash I was able to dig up some more stars!! Anyways, here it is!

What do you think?!

Hopefully tonight after we watch another movie I'll be able to get some more challenges done, but not promising anything!

Thanks for lookin'

Calling it a Night!

Well, calling it a night now!! Getting late and we're tired! I had fun doing some of the challenges and taking goofy pics!! I'm gonna be sooo behind tomorrow, out of 10 challenges I have a whooping 4 done, and new ones will come up tomorrow...or I should say today as it's 12:12 am! Time fly's when you're having fun, eh? :P

Anyways, here's the last layout I created "Please Don't Stop The Music" as I CANNOT live without music! The challenge was called Product Appreciation and is being hosted by Ashley! It def gets you thinking, you can't use any live things.... hince the name. So I chose to take a pic of my radio and almost oops'd when I was about to put a pic of my singing on the LO!

Photobucket

That's my 2nd attempt at Elsie's free-spirited style!!

I'll show the first one now I guess, this was also for a challenge a while back for a diff site I am no longer a part of. I did it on my man, Kenny Chesney! (I wish he was my man :P Ain't he HAWT?)

Photobucket

So what do you think of it? I know it's not Elsie, but it is still kinda funky and fun?!
Lemme' know!!

Good Night!!!

Thanks for lookin'!

Tea Baggin'

Yup, I said TEA BAGGIN' :P Funny story behind that, on Just Scrappin' we had a challenge to do Teabag Folding on a card for the Summertime Crop that is being hosted by our lovely Aymee! Anyways, my mom and I were walking through the store and we were talking about the challenges we have to work on.I blurted out, and not very quietly, that I still had some tea baggin' to do and just didn't know if I could figure out how to do it! My mom just bursted out laughing at me and she says the best part about it was the look on my face after I had realized what I said. ( yes, I'm slow at times!) Here's the card I tried to attempt to make... not the best and I can promise you I will prolly never make another one as it was a PITA!! :P

Photobucket

(Sorry, not the best pic)

Well, I'm off to hopefully get more accomplished tonight! Stop on by and come try some of the fab challenges and get to know these wonderful ladies!!

Thanks for lookin'

Saturday

Well... it's finally the weekend... woohoo!! Can't wait til Monday now though.... we're going to Slchitterbahn (so misspelled that) with one of my mom's friends and her family, we haven't seen her in FOREVER!!

I got one thing done last night for the Summertime Crop it was Cherrie's "In Good Company" Challenge, I had a few slogans to choose from and found one that totally fit me and I'm not the happiest with it, because I oops'd quite a few times.... anyways, here it is!

Photobucket

Isn't that just the best slogan ever!

Well, I need to get off of here so I can get some stuff scrapped so I won't be behind!!

I will share the rest of my creations later tonight!

Thanks for lookin'

TGIF!

TGIF, Right?!!! This week went by soo slow it's not even funny!! So today we got up and went to get some applications so I could start working (need money for scrappy stuff :P and clothes of course!!) and the 2 places we went to told us they had no applications... Oh c'mon now... yea right!! They just didn't like me, that's it :P (I could really care less to be honest :P). After that excitment my mom and I went to the mall and I found my new fave store Torrid, it's for bigger sized girls, but they have the cutest clothes, and guess what? I can wear some of the clothes they have!! I'm a size 0 if you take me to that store! Woohoo!! :P I found the cutest top there and afterwards we went into the Sketchers store so my mom could get her a new pair of flip flops, they are the cutest, then went into JCPenny's, and boy oh boy did I get into trouble there!! They had some great sells and some of the cutest clothes!! I'm sure you're wanting to see what I got right? And if not I wanna show ya anyways!!!
Well here they are! Hopefully they aren't showing up sideways.... I have some serious issues with rotating my pics!!

Anyways, today is the first day of the Summertime Crop on Just Scrappin'! It's not too late to come and check it out, we've got some great challenges and a poll to name our very own flamingo ( if you have no clue what I'm talking about then I guess you will just have to head over there and find out :P). So far we have a total of 8 challenges and it's only the first day... still have 3 more days left!!

No pictures of any recent creations yet, but I'll share one of my favorite cards!

Photobucket
(Ya know I still have that card stashed somewhere I think!)

So, what do ya think of it?
I've got a few layouts I did for Father's Day that I wanna show ya, but I'll save it for another post as I think I have enough pics in this one!!

Well, hopefully I'll get to share some of my creations tonight, gotta think think think on what I'm gonna do with these challenges!! 20 more minutes before I can start creating! C'mon 6:00!!

Thanks for lookin'

Hey There!!!

Well, it's been FOREVER since I started my blog, and I failed to post until now, so here's to hoping that I will be able to keep up with it! My plans are to come here every few days, or every day if i can, and start showin' some of my work. I just recently got involved with another set of scrappy forums and I've having a harder time getting used to it since the last one I was involved with had TOO much DRAMA!! The ladies that are on this forum are the sweetest so I wanted to share it with you!! Here it is: Just Scrappin'

As most of you know a few months ago I was chosen as one of the 5 winners for the Adornit TeenChix contest that received entries from all over the world! I was on their blog the other day and looked at another winners work that was made witht he free product we received. I just loved her work so I decided to check out her blog. After reading her blog I decided I had plenty of time on my hands to get my blog up and running so I could show some of my very own work! Anyways, Ruby's work is amazing and I just wanted to share her blog with you!

Well I promised to show some work so I'll start off with the projects I entered for the contest!
