All Things Grow Better With Love

Happy Friday!  It's been a warm here in Central Illinois weather-wise.  Definitely loving this sunshine!  Today, the kids had a half day of school. Although my poor girl woke up with a fever and sore throat.  Ended up keeping her home and took her into Prompt Care. She tested positive for strep...2nd time this year!  So, she's resting on the couch watching a movie.

Today I am sharing a two page layout I did using Echo Park's Victorian Gardens. I did this as an assigment for the design team at The Scrapbooking Studio.  Since it was around Valentine's Day, I decided to use pictures from Hailey's first grade Valentine's party.  She and Noah look so little!





Next, here is a card I made. I love using the rosette die from Tim Holtz!



Our spring break won't be spent anywhere exotic, although it will be exciting! We are moving into our new house on Tuesday! Right now, our house is full of boxes. I feel like I'm in an episode of Hoarders! LOL

Tonight, I am going out with some friends to see The Hunger Games! Cannot wait! Absolutely LOVED the books!!

Just My Type

Where does the time go?? I can't believe it's the middle of March.  Here in Central IL, we will have highs in the 70's this week! Loving it!  Praying that the weather holds as we sold our house!! We are moving the last week of the month. So, we really need some nice weather.  It happens to fall over my kids' spring break, too. My in-laws were nice enough to take the kids for a few days too.  Exciting!

I've been dragging my feet packing up my scrapbook room. I still need all of my stuff out. Ok, not all of it..but the essentials.  I've even contemplated making my own little nook at The Scrapbooking Studio in the crop room.  LOL

Today I am sharing a mini book I did using Jillibean Soup's Sweet and Sour Soup.  It's tiny but was fun to work with! I really like using the Maya Road chipboard books!








Love my husband and when he's silly with me. I'm usually the clown/dork. 

I'm going to go lock myself in my scraproom for the day and try to get a couple things done!  Tomorrow, I need to hit the packing hard since we are moving in two weeks!
