All of my change I spent on you

I have been a scrappin fool lately! Would you agree. I am afraid to stop creating. If I stop then I may go on hiatus again and I don't want that. When I get lazy, I really get lazy. I am gonna go with it as long as I can. I don't really care if they turn out fabulous as long as I am happy doing it! So enjoy the show...




I really liked doing so many layers on this page. I don't like to create the same kind of layouts all the time. I try to change it up. I mean yes I always do layers. It feels foreign if I don't. As you will see these two pages are different. I like to change up the over all size too. I hope it keeps my work from getting stale. This was my birthday dessert. Strawberry shortcake has always been a fav of mine.


When I seen those Heidi swapp bows on instagram I knew I had to have them. Little did I know how difficult they would be to use on a page. I mean I love dimension but man those things really pop. I came back to this page a few times and it took me a good 4 hours to complete. I actually had to turn the pic and reverse the cluster. I like it better now.

That little car my son gave me. I think because it was pink he wanted me to have it. I loved it and now carry it in my purse where ever I go. I say it is my good luck charm.

Just a few pics of the past week I would like to share.

Yummy bbq.

My daughter Raven made me a unicorn bust.

Chocolate chip cookies. Yum.

And the kids tried escargot. Yes. Gross. 2 liked and 2 did not. I filmed it. It's on my facebook if you're interested.

The winner to the hambly blog hop is....

Congrats Jessica! Email your address to scrapmojo@sbcglobal.net and I will get those cards to you soon!


If you didn't win that prize but are in a prize winning mood, I have another blog hop going on till midnight tonight. The hambly post below this one. If you leave me a comment there and become a follower then I will send you a little something.

Even after all that hoppin I managed to pump out a few layouts. Here is one I did for the Studio Calico Sunday Sketch.




A picture of the giant dipper in Santa Cruz. This ride is one of my favs but it kills my back every time. I mean even when I was a kid! I have to say my 84 year old grandmother went on it! She was hurting for a while after tho! I hope I am that way when I get to be her age.

And a few more just because I love to create with my hands!



I did this photo for the photo a day challenge in feb. I try to find a different way of photographing things on that list. This one was a heart.




Another a photo a day pic. Again me being silly. I love silly.




Instagram photo. I really do adore spring. It is not to hot, not to cold. The flowers are blooming and birds are singing. Ahhh! I must say I do also love fall tho. Hehe!

One last thing...Another blog hop is coming this weekend...32 blogs are on the list! That is 32 chances to win some fab prizes. Will you be there?

Heavy heart



Welcome to the Fond Farwell hambly blog hop. I have been honored and so happy to have been on this dt. The ladies are so very talented and it was a pleasure working with them!

It is with a heavy heart and a tear in my eye that I type this right now. I have been scrapbooking for 9 years now and I have to say Hambly has been a constant in my journey. I have loved their products from the get go. The designs have always been on the cutting edge and brought inspiration to me. I will miss them deeply.

I guess all good things come to an end. To celebrate my love for hambly I did one last project to share with you all. Of course this doesnt mean the end of me using hambly. I have a stock pile to last me a while.


Before I show you the new let me show you the old. I made this a while back and it was published in scrapbook trends mini album book. I wasnt able to share till now. Used lots of hambly on this one


Now with the new. I made this one to showcase all my little instagram photos I have been taking daily. Something simple, yet beautiful. I love how it turned out. I hope you do too.








































































What is a blog hop without a prize...Well I will be giving away a little hambly lovely-ness something made by me. Just become a follower and leave me a comment telling me you did so. If you are already a follower leave me a comment about what you will miss most about hambly.

Thank you all for joining me on this journey.

Your next stop is.... Mou Saha
