Scrapbook Place Fall Blog Hop!

I haven't blogged in a long while. Not sure why other than normal life stuff going on. :)Fall is my favorite season though, the colors are amazing and I felt it was time to show up here and show off some of my fall layouts! When you are a scrapbooker how can you not enjoy scrapbooking fall colors and fun pics in the leaves?
So I signed up for this Scrapbook Place Blog Hop. If you just happened on my blog by chance and you'd like to get to the beginning of the list please start off at Linda's Blog , she is one of the owners of our group and a great artist! From my blog you will happily hop onto another creative member of the scrapbook place group, Donna, remember to leave me a little love before you click on Donna's name! Don't forget to leave some comments all along the way too, because I hear there might be some goodies to be gotten by some lucky person!









My layouts are all from the last two years. I worked on these this Septemeber and felt it was time to display them. The first two pics were of me and my hubby just a few days before our son Tyler was born. The next set of pictures is of Tyler and us at a pumpkin festival in Pennsylvania. We had such a great time! Definitely have to go back again. Enjoy, and thanks for hopping along!

Friends That Scrap "Destination Summer" Blog Hop

Welcome to our Friends that Scrap first Annual Blog Hop!

We are a yahoo based group that loves to scrapbook,

learn new techniques and syles from other crafty gals

like ourselves, share our talents and like to form on-line friendships

with those that have the same interests.
This blog hop is designed to share our "Destination Summer" projects with

you and, if you are located in the United States or Canada, invite you to come and join

our yahoo group!

If this is your first stop on the blog hop, you will want to start at the beginning

at Debbie's blog (she is one of the co-owners of the group).

You will visit eleven member's blogs along the way, each linking you on to the next stop.

You'll find some great summer related projects and most blogs have

a giveaway for you to enter. Giveaways close on Sunday, July 24th at midnight.

So be sure to visit all blogs and leave a comment on the way!












Here is a couple of layouts from a not so long ago vacation with my husband. We went to Niagra Falls for a long weekend and ventured to quite a few fun and beautiful sites. This is just the start of our trip so I hope to complete more throughout this weekend and the hop!


If you're interested in an active group with friendly people take a moment to join by visiting http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Friends_That_Scrap/ and click on the JOIN button.

Baby Blues

This layout was done for a sketch challenge on the yahoo group Friends that Scrap. I had to use these photo's my babysitter took because they were just perfect for the sketch. She made them B&W photo's but in the larger picture she left his eyes blue .. they are the prettiest shade of blue too!
