Cool Mom Picks & Etsy - Valentine Card Contest

Etsy & Cool Mom Picks decided to do a contest to help fund the Children's Heart Foundation!
You can check out the details HERE!


Because I'm a spur of the moment kinda person, I decided to enter this last minute. Of course, I just had to do a frog because I love them so much.


So here's my entry, and even if I don't win and get to help the Children's Heart Foundation... I had lots of fun creating the cute little guy!

Dirty Scraps (new challenge blog)

So Pinky has started a new challenge blog - Dirty Scraps. Of course it's a scrappy challenge blog, but it's also about not just scrapping the good side of life.

We all have it - the crap that happens on a daily basis or has happened before in our lives.


Anyway, I decided to do the first challenge. Scrapping a peeve and what you learned from it. When I first started thinking I was like, well... if I learned anything they wouldn't really be a peeve anymore. However, I decided to scrap about myself. I am my own worst enemy in most cases, I have to remind myself that I am a good person and I deserve to be happy and content with life. I have to make myself be happy with me.

I decided to journal with a black pen along black because I want it to be difficult for me to go back and read later. Maybe, if I have to put extra effort into reading it when I look at it, I'll remember what it says!

Oh Scrappy Day...

Well, yesterday I had a blast scrapping! It was so much fun - I can't believe how much I missed it. Since we have a weekend at home, I decided to put my scrappy ideas to use and work on some challenges. Lucky me there is a crop at Treasured Scrapbooking and one at Scrap Attack Scrapbooking this weekend. Can't ask for much better than that!

So I thought I would share what I've done so far - because I am super excited about paper scrapping again!!

At {SAS}, I've only completed one challenge (a lift). It is such a cute page and I had a great person to lift from - thanks Nadine! Here's my page for that - a cute pic of Grayson at the park playing with a hot wheels car we snagged from a geocache box. I hope to get some more done tomorrow... I just need to actually sit down and do them!

At TS I've done 4 challenges... 3 pages and a bookmark. Here are my pages for that crop. Enjoy!!
