"they're the world my world revolves around"

Back with another of my favorites by Creations by Rachael. I just love the flowers included in this kit. It's Sunshine on My Soul.


This one is me, back when I was a itsy, bitsy thing. The swing was on a clothesline in my grandmother's backyard. We used to spend all of our summers there while our parents were working.

"i'm telling you to loosen my buttons baby"

First of all, I feel like I probably should apologize for the lyrics titling this post.

Now that we got that out of the way, look how I spent my afternoon (and most of the night too, let's just be honest). So I have two versions of this layout, cause I can't figure out which I like

"one is one too many, one more is never enough"

It's the last challenge of ADSR 6.  I think I'm going to miss doing this every week.  It was way more fun than I thought it would be, even though most of the challenges drove me absolutely up the wall.

"there's not a thing that I would change, cause you're amazing"

I love this kit, Just the Way You Are, from Creations by Rachael. The bright colors are so much fun and so very versatile:



I remember loving this museum, our parents would take us during the summer.  I loved the drive up to Boston and just walking around that city.  But the children's museum was really the best.  There were so many things to learn and so many things to play with.  I kind of can't wait until I have kids of my own so I can bring them back there.

"here you go, pulling me right back it"

So C has been playing this acid rock station all afternoon, and for the last 20 minutes I swear it's been playing classical. Apparently it's time to party like it's 1776.

That's ok, I guess it's pretty easy to scrap to classical music. Or at least it's slightly more relaxing than my current thing for scrapping while watching reruns of Criminal Minds. Who knew?



Fun and blocky, right? Ever since I saw one of the HGTV Design Stars do this with art on the walls during the finale, I've been all about this look.

"keep on dancing til the world ends"

Have you seen this new kit by Creations by Rachael, Just The Way You Are, yet?





It was so much fun to play with, lots of bright color and so very  versatile,

"bring on the sunshine, bring on the good times"

The month's Make-A-Kit pieces make me so happy; I swear it's the yellow. I mean what else would it be, lol. It's not really a color I scrap with a lot, but I guess I was feeling a bit flexible.  For once, go figure.

This one is perhaps my favorite. I love blocking. And the overlapping frame/curling ribbon thing came out so well, imo.




But wait, there's more...
