Challenge

I made this LO awhile ago. My girlfriend has challenged me to use a piece of paper (Winnie the Pooh) that I had in my stash, and hadn't used. The picture came out of the archives, as my darling little girl is now 12, and is very embarrased that her mother would create such a LO! I had such fun making this and going down memory lane a little bit too!

Auntie!

I made this LO, as it's one of the last pictures I have with my sister and my daughter. My daughter loves this LO as Auntie was so special to her.

Monday

Yesterday I was able to take in a Stampin' Up Class on Christmas cards. I haven't taken any pictures yet, but did have a lot of fun.

Tonight I'm hosting a Salt City Candle party, I'm very excited to have the girls over for a visit and chat!

Where does the time go??

It's hard to believe that I haven't written anything for almost 10 days. Where does the time go...kids activities, taking care of the family, chauffer, chief cook and bottle washer...the list is endless. The good news is I will finally get a chance to start my christmas creations, on Sunday I'm going to take a class from my local Stampin' Up rep. making Xmas cards. Wish me luck.

My dad, the welder

My dad is a bit of a "Jack of all Trades", which is quite funny as his name is Jack. My brother took this picture of Dad imposing a picture of him welding over the portrait. I thought it looked really cool! I have 2 5x7's that I wanted to scrap, one for each kid. Here's the result of the first one, funny enough I landed up using paper I had bought to do wedding pages! Whatever works!

Another page of Cory

This is my sister and her husband at a wedding, having fun! I wanted to scrap this page because it was a very happy day, and they look so happy in the picture. They had only been married for a few weeks and it clearly showed in their eyes and smiles.

Cory pages

Here are some of the LO's I have done in memory of my sister, Cory. The pages are hard to do, but good for my heart!
This is my mom and my sister, having a ball at a cousin's wedding!

What a busy day at work, and painful! I did something to my ribs/muscles, something, and it's quite painful. After spending the day marking at my desk, it was really difficult to make the drive home. I'm now sitting, being pampered by the family, playing on my laptop!

The whole reason for the name of my blog, I love Stargazer Lilies. It is also the flower that my sister loved. Everytime I see them I think of her!

I am a working mom, who loves to scrapbook, read, be with my kids (most days), and hang out with my husband.

I am thrilled to be finally making a blog, although it may take me awhile to figure it all out!

Day 1

Well, just trying this out and with hopes that this will work....
