The Shoe Color Challenge - Aug. 27th

This week's challenge over at The Shoe is to use the following Copic colors on your LO. Now, you don't have to actually use Copic's, we just thought that there are a lot of Copic users out there and what better way to get them inspired too!


The colors this week are: Ocean Green, Nile Green and Nile Blue. I hope you enjoy my take on these beautiful colors!

These are pictures from last summer (09) on our vacation to San Diego.

Supplies used:

CS: DCWV; PP: K&Co; Alpha: American Crafts; Punch: Fiskers; Adhesive: ATG Gun; Pen: Gelly Roll; Paper Piercer: CTMH; Thread: Unknown.

Snow Much Fun!!!

No scrapping post today, but boy, I can't wait to scrap these photos (and I'm not posting all of them, that would be too much!!)

These were taken on January 31, 2010, the day after our "big" snowstorm in the Hampton Roads area of Virginia. We decided to get dressed up in our ski gear and go make snow angels in our backyard. Of course, there were some snowballs thrown too....LOL!!

Since we moved back to the area 4 1/2 years ago, it has never snowed. It was a lot of fun to watch it fall and then get to play around in it (for the next week...too!!), but let me tell you it was no fun to drive around in! Also, the schools were closed, so my girls did not have school for a total of 7 days....can anyone say "Cabin Fever"??? They were grateful to go back on that Thursday, and so was Mommy!!

Be sure to come back on Friday and see my latest creation for The Shoe blog. Until then....
