They have some awesome prices and their kits ROCK. Here is a little something that I came up with from the kit.<br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/?action=view¤t=Picture018-2.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/Picture018-2.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br />I used the Little Buds 12x12 Patterned Paper from www.bellablvd.com and the Swing into Spring Collection. Love this new company! And she is from Wisconsin so that makes it even more special.<br /><br />I cut out the trees and framed them with one of the squares from the Funky Squares die from Cuttlebug. Then cut out a strip from the Making Memories Tart & Tin paper. Again in the kit. <br /><br /><em>She's Like the</em> were all random letter stickers that I already had and <em>wind</em> was from Making Memories Varnish Alpha (in the kit)<br /><br />I really love how the whole thing turned out. I also love using kits now. I can't wait for next month. I may even purchase both of them!

I loaded some more pictures of projects.<br /><br />This one has taken me a couple of days to complete. I am making chore charts for the girls. I used my Cricut for just about everything on them. George, Indie Art, Makin the Grade and Home Accents. I love how they turned out! I used Magnetic Tape for the check marks (stars, flowers and circles) and then added a strip at the bottom for the girls to put them on. <br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Ashlynn wanted a Rocker type chart:<br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Cards/?action=view¤t=Picture010.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Cards/Picture010.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br />Brooklyn wanted flowers and butterflies:<br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Cards/?action=view¤t=Picture009.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Cards/Picture009.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br />And Kaylin wanted Spiderman so I added some spiders and will find a Spiderman sticker to put in the corner:<br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Cards/?action=view¤t=Picture008.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Cards/Picture008.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br />And here it is adhered to poster bored with the strip at the bottom ready to be hung on the wall!<br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Cards/?action=view¤t=Picture011.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Cards/Picture011.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><br />And then a fun little card for a crop at www.homesweethome.forumsland.com<br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Cards/?action=view¤t=Picture012.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Cards/Picture012.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><br />Thanks for looking!Sonjahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16034191011580596062noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2349845587374102190.post-83658677293472603552009-06-25T19:41:00.002-05:002009-06-25T19:46:31.773-05:00Crop At MommysaversOk so I admit. I really hate downloading pictures on here. It is so time consuming. Here are a few challengs I did over at www.Mommysavers.com <br /><br />THis one was to be inspired by a picture of some daisys. I got this image from a swap and I believe it is from www.stampingbella.com <br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/?action=view¤t=Picture006.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Picture006.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br />This one was to use the word fun on the card or layout<br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/?action=view¤t=Picture005.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Picture005.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><br />Christmas in June.

I have met her one other time at her Crop Out Diabetes Event she hosted. Now we got a chance to meet at the Milwaukee Zoo. I only had Kaylin for the day and she had her 3 girls with. We had a lot of fun. I don't have pics of the 2 of us. They were on her camera. You can view her post here.... www.finkerdoodles.blogspot.com<br /><br />Here are some pics of the girls that I got.<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Miscellaneous/?action=view¤t=Picture022-1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Miscellaneous/Picture022-1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Miscellaneous/?action=view¤t=Picture030.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Miscellaneous/Picture030.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Miscellaneous/?action=view¤t=Picture041.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Miscellaneous/Picture041.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><a href="http://www.finkerdoodles.blogspot.com"></a>Sonjahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16034191011580596062noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2349845587374102190.post-15165090429798896502009-06-08T09:13:00.003-05:002009-06-08T18:46:13.048-05:00Awesome Blog Candy!Check it out!<br /><br /><br />http://keepsakesbymelissa.blogspot.com/<br /><br />And another<br /><br />http://donaldas.blogspot.com/Sonjahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16034191011580596062noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2349845587374102190.post-67311657113688379082009-05-31T11:10:00.002-05:002009-05-31T11:15:33.735-05:00A Few ChallengesI got to participate even just the tiniest bit on a Mimi Crop being held at www.mommysavers.com<br /><br />The first challenge I accepted was to make a page with the entire immediate family in it. I chose to use some pictures from a trip to Lapham Peak in October. <br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/?action=view¤t=Picture036.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Picture036.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br />The next challenge was to use 3 of these items in a page or card:<br />scallops*<br />eyelets*<br />brads<br />paperclip<br />bling*<br />something recycled<br /><br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/?action=view¤t=Picture035.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Picture035.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><br />Then the last one that I was able to complete since it is such a nice day out is a Fathers day card<br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/?action=view¤t=Picture034.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Picture034.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>Sonjahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16034191011580596062noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2349845587374102190.post-89581717623956106132009-05-10T00:02:00.000-05:002009-05-10T00:20:55.859-05:00I Cleaned the DungeonCan you believe it? I went to the Dollar Tree and pick up a few little baskets and stackables and set off to get my scrap area cleaned up.<br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrap%20For%20Trade/?action=view¤t=Picture019.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrap%20For%20Trade/Picture019.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br />First is the shelf that houses my magazines, Cuttlebug stuff, Cricut stuff, Punches and other miscellaneous. I moved my glitter and embossing powder and tried to place stuff into the baskets and stackables so that it was not just loose on the shelf.<br /><br />Here is the shelf before:<br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrap%20For%20Trade/?action=view¤t=Picture017.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrap%20For%20Trade/Picture017.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br />And After:<br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrap%20For%20Trade/?action=view¤t=Picture024.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrap%20For%20Trade/Picture024.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br />My table is a disaster waiting to happen. It is a catchall for anything that comes it's way. I wanted to have more open space with less clutter. I moved all of my paper to one end and then left enough room for me to have for scrapping.<br /><br />Before: (OMG it is HORRIBLE!)<br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrap%20For%20Trade/?action=view¤t=Picture018.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrap%20For%20Trade/Picture018.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><br />After: (Ahhh much better!)<br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrap%20For%20Trade/?action=view¤t=Picture020.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrap%20For%20Trade/Picture020.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br /><br />This shelf had a lot of stuff moved off the top and I added all of my embellishment boxes, stamps, and sticker binders there.

Almost every one of my projects had it in it. <br /><br />This one is a challenge to alter a button.

This is a page about my sweet sister Melissa with Down's Syndrome<br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/?action=view¤t=Picture276.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/Picture276.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br />Close up of title on photo:<br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/?action=view¤t=Picture277.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/Picture277.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br />Challenge was to use a Tag:<br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/?action=view¤t=Picture278.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/Picture278.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br />Close up of Tag:<br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/?action=view¤t=Picture281.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/Picture281.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br />This next one is a voting challenge. Do a card and a page without pictures. The page came out very shiny in the picture and there are fingerprints all over the shiny paper. Oh well. The page is for the pictures of Ashlynn playing Guitar Hero on the Wii. It is one of her favorite games.<br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/?action=view¤t=Picture005-1.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/Picture005-1.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a><br /><br />I love how the card turned out.

So the challenge this week was to take paper flowers and emboss them. I took a pretty pink flower and embossed it with the Swiss Dots folder. The stamp set is from Inkadinkadoo, die cut squares from Funky Squares die cut made with the Cuttlebug, paper from Stampin Up and Cardstock from DCWV. I also used a few stickles on the owl. <br /><br />Outside: "A wise man once said..."<br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Cards/?action=view&current=ScrapbookPages001.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Cards/ScrapbookPages001.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br />Inside: "Follow your dreams.

It was my first for this many days. I have only done one other one that was a day crop. I had so much fun not only chatting and cropping but learning so much from the other ladies there! They were such inspirations to me. And you know what....I didn't take one single picture. I am such a DORK! So anyway, I finished 6 Christmas cards and 9 pages. Not too bad but I know that I could have done more!<br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/?action=view&current=Project365013.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/Project365013.jpg" border="0" alt="Cards" /></a><br /><br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/?action=view&current=Project365005.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/Project365005.jpg" border="0" alt="3rd Grade" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/?action=view&current=Project365010.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/Project365010.jpg" border="0" alt="Mom and Missy" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/?action=view&current=Project365009.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/Project365009.jpg" border="0" alt="B-1st Day" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/?action=view&current=Project365001.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/Project365001.jpg" border="0" alt="Jax" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/?action=view&current=Project365002.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/Project365002.jpg" border="0" alt="Boo at the Zoo" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/?action=view&current=Project365011.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/Project365011.jpg" border="0" alt="Frankenstein" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/?action=view&current=Project365006.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/Project365006.jpg" border="0" alt="Sweetness" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/?action=view&current=Project365008.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/Project365008.jpg" border="0" alt="Huh?" /></a><br /><br /><br />Hopefully going gave me some creative energy to focus off of!

Come check it out there are great challenges and prized too! The Theme is "Clue". So my first card was for a challenge to do a monochromatic color. I chose to do Mr. Green and use...you guessed it GREEN. Here is my take on the challenge.<br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Cards/?action=view&current=Project365055.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Cards/Project365055.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br />The next challenge I did was to make a card using tags or a tag. I chose to make a Halloween card.<br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Cards/?action=view&current=Project365058.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Cards/Project365058.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br />Hopefully I can get some more done by Saturday.

So I was told about this blog for the Cuttlebug that my friend Jean is a DT on. Check out some of her amazing work here: <a href="http://pinkcamo1981.blogspot.com/">http://pinkcamo1981.blogspot.com/</a><br /><br />So the challenge is Sanding Surprise and is found on <a href="http://thecuttlebugspot.blogspot.com/">http://thecuttlebugspot.blogspot.com/</a><br />It is to use a Cuttlebug folder and sand it. <br /><br />Since I am still a novice to this I tried my hand at it with the Swiss Dots folder. I used the Stretch Your Imagination Cartridge on the Cricut for the baby cut. I think I want to switch the title since the image came out a bit smudgy but I am a pleased with the outcome.<br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Cards/?action=view&current=DSCF0122.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Cards/DSCF0122.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a>Sonjahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16034191011580596062noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2349845587374102190.post-58134897939635309262008-09-29T10:40:00.000-05:002008-09-29T10:47:26.423-05:00New Scrap AreaI decided to switch my scrap room yet again. I was in the storage "closet" of the basement. It was hard to go in there and work on stuff when the kids where on the other side of the wall playing and getting into trouble. So now I moved it into a corner of the basement opposite of their pay area. This way I can scrap and make sure that my kids stay out of TROUBLE.<br /><br />Here is what it looked like before:<br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/?action=view&current=ScrapPages006-2.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/ScrapPages006-2.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br />Now this is what I have done to it. <br /><br />Table in which I craft:<br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/?action=view&current=DSCF0111.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/DSCF0111.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br />Shelf that my dad made a long time ago no holds my embellishments, magazines and misc.<br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/?action=view&current=DSCF0110.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/DSCF0110.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br />I am using an old book shelf and dresser to house albums, paper, stamps and other misc<br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/?action=view&current=DSCF0112.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/DSCF0112.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br />Of course I would always love to have it organized with matching storage items but that doe snot happen when you are on a tight budget and buy too much stuff! ((rolling eyes))<br /><br />So here is where I create! I hope you enjoy. I also hope that I can get some of my mojo back. I am getting there.......slowly. :)Sonjahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16034191011580596062noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2349845587374102190.post-61084117629310613512008-09-27T21:43:00.000-05:002008-09-28T09:23:31.890-05:00Weekend Crop at Sassy Cards N ScrapsI have started some of the challenges over at Sassy Cards N Scraps. <a href="http://www.sassycardsnscraps.com/">http://www.sassycardsnscraps.com/</a> But like some of you know I just am not fast making things. So they are moving along quite slowly. Here is my first one it is a sketch challenge.<br /><br />Here is the sketch:<br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/?action=view&current=3photos10stripstext.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/3photos10stripstext.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br />And here is my interpretation:<br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/?action=view&current=DSCF0105-1.jpg" target="_blank"><img alt="Photobucket" src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/DSCF0105-1.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br />I used the Cricut for the Title using Makin the Grade Cartridge, some fibers and Berry Bliss paper from Stampin Up!.<br /><br /><br />This one was a challenge to use the quote "Today you are you, that is truer than true. There is no one alive who is youer than you."--Dr. Seuss<br /><br />So I took the quote and typed it in Word and used Word Art to create it into a oval. Than I decorated a King Size Hershey Bar with paper and embellishments, put the quote on and when I give it to someone I will stamp their name in the oval. <br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/?action=view&current=DSCF0106.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/DSCF0106.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a><br /><br /><a href="http://s138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/?action=view&current=DSCF0109.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q257/sgoodchild/Scrapbook%20Pages/DSCF0109.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket" /></a>Sonjahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/16034191011580596062noreply@blogger.com0
