10 Years of Football

Happy Monday everyone!! I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. I am so excited to share this post with you today. I had so much fun looking back at the past 10 years and remembering all the fun I have had watching Alex play football. It all started when he was 4 years old and got his first Dallas Cowboys outfit. I just love that photo of him all geared up on Christmas.

This is the first 2 page spread I have done in awhile and I am really excited about it. I just love how all the Scrappin' Sports & More papers work together. I used two lines of the football papers and combined it with some of the side B papers from other lines to add some color. A few buttons, chipboard letters, stickers and twine and the layout came together better than I envisioned. I hope you like it!

Here is the two page spread.

Here are some close ups :)

Maddy Soccer

Just wanted to add some pictures of Maddy playing soccer last weekend.  Today she actually got to play in the mid-field, not just defense, so I will have some new photos to add :)

Love this Game

For several years now Victoria has been in love with all things soccer. She plays pretty much year round and when she isn't playing it we are watching it on tv. Go Manchester United!!   I have to say that her passion for the game has rubbed off on me too. I absolutely love going to the games and watching her play. My hope is that she will continue to keep her foot on the ball long after high school is finished.

I love that I was able to get 5 photos on one page and you can still see all the action of the game. I love the combination of the red, blue & green from the SS&M papers. And while the zebra print is a neutral, I love how it pulls everything together.  Here is my latest layout for Scrappin' Sports & More.

Have a wonderful day!

Updating my blog..

Just updating my blog with some recent Scrappin' Sports & More layouts.

 

Kindergarten Readiness

This is my now 8th grader his first year at St. Michael's School. He looks so excited in the pictures it's hard not to smile and remember those simpler years of school. No homework, just fun times!! I love looking back and seeing just how far he has come. They grow up so fast; it's hard to believe that this was only a short time ago.

I used a fun star border punch that always works well with school themes and added a few star brads. I also braided 3 colors of twine together for the banner topper.

Thanks for stopping by!!

Waiting for Daddy

I am sure that these photos are not new to many of you. Our pets show such love for us. Delta will wait forever by the back door waiting for her Daddy to come inside. She will sit and whimper if he takes too long. And then...once that door opens....she is just a wiggly mess. LOL We are so fortunate to be able to be shown this unconditional love by our pets.

 

 

It may be hard to tell but I curled strips of the blue stripped paper to create some flowers in the left hand corner of the layout. I also roughed up the sides of my two background papers.

Thanks for stopping by! Have a wonderful day and hug those faithful pets!

Here is the school mini album I created to showcase the School is Cool line.  Love how easily you can mix and match the different grades.

It's been a LONG time....

I can't believe how long it's been since I posted on my Own blog.  Here are a few layouts that I created over the last several months.
