Better Late than Never!

That seems to be my motto these days, LoL!! One of my New Year's resolutions was to keep my blog up to date and as you can see I have been slacking! So, as I said...better late than never! There is a new look and there have been so many changes at Brownie Scraps lately. I am so happy to see how much it has expanded in the past 5 months! The designers are amazing and the CT is so talented! If you haven't yet joined us over at Brownie Scraps you should check it out and come try out the challenges!
I hope to start making up some QP's in the near future so make sure you check back!
Here are some of my most recent pages:

The first 2 pages are for the Sugar Coated Alpha Challenge, which will in the end turn out to be a ABC book.

I tried to coordinate the next two pages so that they would work together. They were each done seperately for 2 different Brownie Scraps challenges. I used the very versitile, elegant kit, called Midnight Sky by Scrappin' Daisies for both of these layouts.

Fall is in the Air!

Can you believe that summer is 'officially' over? Fall is in the air! We live up north in Ontario, Canada and the weather here has definately changed! My favourite thing about fall is enjoying nice fall walks and looking at the beautiful autumn colours around me! I took this picture of my son last week on one of his first fall walks! I just love this picture. He is growing up so fast and is such a happy little guy! I find it so hard to believe that my son is almost 1!! We have had such a great year and I am so sad that I have to return to work in just a couple of weeks. It is going to be so hard leaving my baby boy for 12 hours at a time. The only thing that keeps me sane is the fact that my wonderful husband will be staying home with our son! Thank goodness for that!
Anyways, back to my scrapbooking....I used the kit September Mornings by Brownie Scraps for this layout. You can find it HERE at the Brownie Scraps Shop! If you haven't already come join us at Brownie Scraps and join in on all of the fun!!

Until next time....Ciao! Off to watch the new Survivor AND Grey's Anatomy...YAY!!!

Finally some layouts!!

I have been having so much fun creating layouts as a 'Brownie Supreme' that I wanted to show off some of the work that I have done recently. All of the challenges are up and running full tilt at Brownie Scraps.....so come over and join us...it's so much fun!
This is my most recent LO and I did this one for the 'Cherry on Top Challenge'. We are given a list of quotes to choose from and this is what I came up with. And....no, he's not eating chocolate!! I'm not that crazy to give a 6 month old chocolate.....but he sure does love his prunes!

I did this next layout for the 'Brownie Indulgence Challenge'. Each month Ramona (the owner of Brownie Scraps) puts up one of her awesome mini kits and the challenge is to create a layout using every single item in the kit. This is a photograph of one of my friends and I at our friend's wedding last weekend. I LOVE this kit...it's so pretty!
