Winter Wonderland


When my granddaughter was 4, we visited old family friends in Flagstaff, Az.
It was her first time playing in the snow, since they lived in warm-weather
places like Florida, Texas, and Tucson, Az.

This layout was inspired by Adam Westwood's class, Scrapping Backwards,
during the ScrapSmarter Experience, January 21-23. The technique is to start with 
some embellishments, preferably old and/or half-used, and build a kit from there.
I started with the Winter Wonderland 3-D stickers from Paper House, and collected
the other elements from my stash. Most of them are from Bo Bunny's 
Sleigh Ride, a collection that's been in my stash for years.

Christmas Cards 2021 - Christmas Time G45

 



This year I made all of my cards with Graphic 45's 

Christmas Time collection. I love the rich colors, the 

use of black as a neutral, and the old-fashioned Father

 Christmas and other icons. I made a few duplicates,  

but for the most part they were all unique.

The Lost Year

 


While this page appears to be about the boys dressed up for their music program with a Hawaiian theme, it's really about how I lost almost all the photos from that year when my computer crashed - no backup! This is the only photo I have of Garritt (on the right) from 2013. Let that be a lesson to you!

Getting to Know Guam


 



















Two pages I did today for my grandchildren about living in Guam.

A wonderful experience for their family, and for me, too!

Perfect Season?

 


A "perfect"season of 6 losses and 0 wins for my grandson's football team.
But they seemed to have fun anyway and were just happy to be playing.
