scrappy tuesday

***i have always wanted to have a day that i post on certain subjects.  i dont want to let you down.  i hope that i will remember on tuesdays to post something scrappy...  

on our first installment of scrappy tuesday, the first order of business is item 1:  i received my studio calico kit.  horray.  cheer...  clap...  standing ovation.  behold below.

 

the second order of business is cody and i and our trip to asheville for a long weekend.  it was scrapped.  and also blogged part 1. part 2.

i guess you could say i have now made it an official memory.  

and that concludes scrappy tuesday... see you again next week.

  

completed pages for 2010.

i am on my way toward completing a new years resolution goal.  does that ever even happen?  

ONE of my many goals was to complete a scrapbook with all of the hikes, adventures, events etc.  

A year in the Life.  if you will. 

anyways, here are a few of the pictures from January.  I have so far completed march and January.   February and April are very picture heavy and i have a hard time editing my own life.  

gotta run today. but be back tomorrow with butterick B4790.  except much shorter.

secret

I love to scrapbook.  and it is almost secretive since i realized the other day that i never ever put stuff up here on ye ole blog about my scrapbooking obsession.

i like to sew scraps onto paper.  and put a picture on it.  and embroider little tiny letters to spell things out.  

this is a letter that i embroidered on my machine.  I typically embroider a whole alphabet and then cut them out.  sometimes i sew them onto contrasting fabrics, sometimes i just jab an eyelet through the two and call it a day.

this is my favorite font.  and this is part of a page for my nephew.  that i am making for a book that i will give to him/ really his mom next year if all goes well.  lets hope for finished projects.

I am a sprinter.  not a long distancer.

help me rhonda i love this font.  

I will be posting some more pages throughout the week.  I am hoping to finish a least a few pages from january today.  

ps, i will be putting these little embroidered letters on etsy for all of you scrappers that want to buy a piece of fabric with the embroidered letters on it.  you will have to do the cutting yourself, but i figure thats whats best for most of you super picky do it myself type people.
