This will be a hard year for alot of people for Christmas. I know we are having a smaller one than usual but I just want everyone to know that you are in alot of peoples prayers. To all those families who’s loved ones are over seas and those who cannot get to your loved ones because of the lack of money and the economy, hang in there hopefully with enough prayer everyone will be safe and taken care of.  I guess alot of people out there will find the true meaning of Christmas this year as they scramble to give as little material things and as much love as they have in their hearts. To all of you out there Merry Christmas and Happy New Year. Hang in there god is listening. Stay Safe.  Read more... (145 words, 2 images, estimated 35 secs reading time)

Drama drama drama… Got to love those kids and family. LOL! Anyway. I cannot believe we are on our way to fall already. This year has just flown by. I have been crazy busy this week lots of stuff going on. Korine is going to cosmetology school there in Manhattan and Torrie is in headstart. WELL!! The flu is going around at Korine’s school and a virus thing is going around Torrie’s school. Needless to say we have all felt not quiet right this week. Torrie and Korine missed a day at school. BUT Korine had her first test last week and got a 100% on it YEA!!! And she had 2 this week and got a 82% and 85% on them so she is doing great and having fun. I can’t wait til she starts on the cutting hair cuz I will not have to go looking for one or paying for one LOL! So no scrapbooking last weekend we went to my sister for the weekend and really enjoyed the change. Hope everyone had a good Labor Day. Then the week as I said was full. BUT! I did get some pictures of my premade wedding albums posted in a few spots and an ad up for me and my girlfriend to start making them and selling them hope it works out. It’s called D&D’s Scrapbooks. Wish me well. I will have to keep you up on the news with that. Here is a picture of one of the pages from one of the scrapbooks we are selling.

Torrie’s first day of school. She was so excited she forgot to tell us bye. LOL! She loves going to school.  She was trying to hurry into the classroom we almost didn’t get a picture. She got the lunch box for her birthday even though she can’t take a lunch she wanted to take her lunch box the first day. It was empty but that didn’t matter to her. She said that if she didn’t finish all of her snack she would put it there and bring it home. TOO CUTE! Well I am looking forward to her programs and things for an opportunity to take more school pictures for my scrapbook.  Read more... (193 words, 2 images, estimated 46 secs reading time)

So these pages are really pretty and kindof plain. I made them with alot less on the page than usual with me I am usually a page filler. LOL! But these pictures turned out so good. She let me take some with the black and white setting on the camera and she even had fun posing for me. I love how the pages came and again. The Cricut was busy on these pages too. The flourishes are so pretty. The cartridge was called Home Accent. Love it and of course her name on the Cricut also. LOVE the Cricut.

Adding embellishments can make the difference in your scrapbook page. The embellishment can be the main item on your page or it can bring attention to the picture on the page.
