Finally Finished

Here's the Market Bag I started in July for a One Skein Knit A-Long over at Ravelry. I finally had some free time to finish it.
Enjoy!

September's Sketch

I actually got some scrappin' time in this weekend. YAY for 3 day weekends :)

Enjoy :)

Had some free time this weekend......

YAY---I was able to play with paper this weekend. Here's a card I made with a kit from TSR.

Things are busy here. Soccer starts this week too! We've had several days of heavy rain prior to today...the sun came back out. Took the kids to see the Star Wars movie--we enjoyed it.

Good-bye Summer!

We had a fantastic week with Heidi and her kids and our mom visiting us here and then going back up to Heidi's for a week & attending the TSR Retreat too....a GREAT way to end summer!

I started my new job Monday at a middle school here. I'm the 6th grade SLD (specific learning disability) teacher. I will be taking courses while teaching and have my Special Ed. teaching license May '09. This is going to be a BUSY year.

I hope to keep up with posting layouts, sketches, cards, knitting projects, etc. I HOPE I have some free time to be creative! Probably not as much as this past year/summer---but I'm going to try (for sanity) to play with paper/stamps/yarn at least a few times a week.

Until my next update---
ENJOY life :)

PageMaps Blog Contest

Here's a layout I just did for the contest over at the new PageMaps blog--I LOVE Becky's sketches---I used the Prima Dude kit from TSR and Doodlebug alphas.

spring hail storm

we've had several hail storms since this one in may--actually we had hail this afternoon too!
I used a July '08 PageMaps sketch for this layout, Pink Paislee papers, Basic Grey alphas, prima flowers and brads from Oriental Trading.
enjoy!
