My favorite Journal

I am so excited about this journal! I had made part of mine but had run out of the same papers that I had used for my sisters journals. This past week something hit me and I found some creative juices to finish MY New York Journal. I like all the tags and pull outs. I am a "list maker" and I always record my daily activities when I am on a trip (you know, I am afraid I will forget the order that I did things in). Anyway--I wanted to post this one because I think it is my best yet. Thanks for looking. I am hoping to scrap this weekend so maybe I will post more next week. I can only hope!

TM Nov & Dec Calendar LO"s

December Calendar Class LO. I love this one, I think its cause I really like the picture of Rhett and Erin goofing off together (we don't get many of these) and of Jillian being her usual perky self.

This is the Nov LO. I am a sucker for yellow and oranges and really like the colors! Both of these lo's are pictures of my family going on our annual Christmas tree hunting trip. This one is from 2006. Thanks Wendy for your creativity!

I'm Back!

Well, I am finally Back! Sorry its been so long, but since the last post life has been crazy! Not only was there Snow, Christmas, New Years and the start of my busy season at work (Everyone wants to work out now!) but I had a bout of bronchitis that kept me feeling bad for 4 weeks and my Mother in law's health has been dwindling. All that being said, I am still blessed beyond my greatest imaginations!!! My husband and I are both employed, my daughter Erin is doing well in Medical School, my son Rhett is working and making us proud, and Jillian is keeping me on my toes with 5th grade and Dance Competition. I have done some scrappin, and have included some of what I've been doing since November. The book was loaded backwards(sorry) but here it is. I made 5 of these before Christmas. My sisters and I are going to New York in March for the 1st time. I decided to make each of us a Travel Journal for Christmas!!! Talk about keep me busy!!!! This is one of the finished products. I used New York and Sister papers to do the album. These 2 pages are to record our trips to China Town, shopping and some of the places this sister (Melody) wants to go.

The pages have flaps that open to pockets that we can put receipts, tickets, etc from our trip.

This is the cover of the journal.

This is the only scrap layout I have completed since November. I love the silver paper and I used the cut black paper and prima flowers. I did go to Wendy's Christmas class inDecember. I will try to post that lo tomorrow. I hope you enjoy these projects. In March Treasured Memories is putting on a Mega Crop. Wendy Reaux and I will be teaching a class similar to the journals above.
