Up the Stairs

Here is a layout of Ike climbing the stairs for the first time. He did it last July 19 exactly a day after his 11th month birthday. He did it as if he was already practicing it for a long time. You will notice that when he reached the top he clapped his hands with joy. I am so proud of him.

July 19, exactly a day after your 11th month birthday
you started to crawl up the stairs. You did it one
step at a time carefully taking caution. When you
reached the top... you were so happy you even clapped your
hands. You did it my son ...you did like a PRO!

What Scrapbooking Item are you? Go here to take the quiz.



You are Fibers!
Fun and crazy at times. You are a warm fuzzy kind of person. You run around getting things done but still find time for fun! You have so many diverse interests that it is often hard to pin you down to any one thing. People love your friendly attitude and carefree ways. You often brighten other people's days. But Fibers Beware - Sometimes people don't take you seriously because of your happy-go-lucky ways. Sometimes you find yourself feeling left out from decision making that could directly affect you. Even though you like to be happy and cheerful, make sure others know that you can also be serious and in tune with reality.

Don't forget to add the site where you posted your quiz and the scrapbooking item that describes you.

Half Page layouts

Just recently I tried out creating 6 X 12 layouts. And boy I am enjoying this so much. I think I will shift to this format. Don't get me wrong, I will still do 12 x 12 layouts from time to time. 6x12 layouts are a lot faster to make and a lot cheaper. You get to cut your page expenses by half. Maybe that is why some people call it half pages. hehehehe. Here are some of the half page layouts that I created this month.

Altered Layout

What happens if a scrapper is on vacation? What else...it means more time to make new layouts and new projects. Since my last post I was able to make 2 12 by 12 layouts, 1 12 by 6 layout and an altered notebook. Boy am I enjoying this vacation so much. Here are photos of my projects:

This layout is my Lasting Impression Cosmo Cricket Challenge entry.

This half page layout was inspired by a sketch by Mara one of the DTs at Itty Bitty.

After finishing several layouts I wanted to do something different. So here it is...
