11 years to get him and it was so worth it!
I'm using a new drop shadow package... some of the shadows are bit weird. Do they look too off?
I'm might tweak with a couple of things but basically its done. Any thoughts or changes?
Thanks for looking!

One for the baby book.
Journaling:
I don’t know if there are words to express how I felt when I met you the first time. We had waited and prayed for a child for so many years and then finally, there you were...this perfect baby... this miracle...this most precious gift from Heavenly Father... how do you put those emotions into words? When they placed you in my arms for the first time I couldn’t believe you were really there... my child... my baby boy...this little person whose movements and habits I already knew so well. And while I say it was love at first sight... the love started long, long before then. Welcome little one.

This is the place where we brought you home from the hospital... where holidays and birthdays are celebrated, where our memories are made, where after praying for you for so long... you made us a family.

with our wee little one... one for the baby book.... I know that the pink is non-boyish but I'm ok with it
And the verdict is still out on the staple in the heart. Yes or No?

These recipe embellishments are sooo cute! They came at the perfect time... I'm in the process of redoing my recipe binder.
This will be printed 8.5x11 and will slide in the front clear cover of my binder.

I can finally share the news! I've been selected to be a member the Ettes & Company Digital creative team! Wahoo!
Ever since I left working for the magazines I've toyed with the idea of being on a design team... I've wanted to keep my toe in the scrapbooking industry and have the incentive to get projects done on a monthly basis...
Enter: The Ettes & Company.
I've loved loved loved their stuff for years... so when I saw their new digital store open last October I was thrilled!
I love their products. Its cute, clean and simple... and totally my style. I got up the nerve to enter their Creative Team call a couple of weeks ago and I found out earlier this week that I have been selected to fill one of their team spots. I'm SOOO excited! You can read about the announcement here.
Some of the fun stuff I'll be doing on my blog is announcing new product, showing pages made with their stuff and giving away freebies.
They have some really fun Dig-ETTE-al kits, Click-pages, Templ-ETTES and more! Check out their cute Valentine's freebies.
Stayed tuned... lots of fun things on the Horizon... so excited for this new adventure!

The first page for the baby book!
Just FYI... this is not in chronological order... I realize I have many pages that go before this one in the book... but I wanted to journal what I was feeling right now.

Journaling says:
Your name is picked out
Your room is finished
You have more clothes than you’ll
probably ever wear
You have family and friends who
are so excited to meet you
We’re patiently waiting...
can’t wait to meet you baby boy!

a simple page of my bff Jennie for my "People We Love" Album...
Journaling:
The first time I met Jennie (in the SLC airport on the way to the Nash-
ville show)it felt like I'd known her for a million years... she’s one
of those kindred spirit. We have the same (warped, but funny) sense of
humor, we enjoy the same hobbies (scrapbooking, cards, making jewelry).
We both married boys from Louisiana... we both love Utah... she's a
returned missionary, I wish I were one... we’re called Jennie Ruth by
co-workers (it’s just easier that way). She has an infections laugh that
warms my heart... she is happy and peppy and kind and wonderful and I
love her more than words can express...

I copied this page straight from Ali Edwards... I like the pattern paper that Ali used better but I'm not paying $4.00 just so I can have a matching piece of paper... and that's the nice thing about digital... If I find something else I like better a little later I can always change it.
let me know what you think.
Thanks!

I know the kit is a bit cutesy for a survival campout... but I don't care.. I like it.
I like the simplicity of these two pages... the template came as a 12x24... before I print it I'll need to cut it down to two 12x12 pages.
Thoughts?? Any changes?
