Where have I been???

Wow!  It's been about 6 weeks since I've blogged.  Seems like forever!

Where have I been???  Busy, just busy.  No other excuses than that.  

Fear not!  I've been busy crafting, working, making memories with the family, going to convention, taking mini vacations with my family.  AND I'm back, back to blogging!  

So here's a little recap :)

School got out the first week of June.  Last year I made this super cool sign.  I used Artbooking, Art Philosophy and a black foam board.  I placed the "last" star on velcro, so that I could swap it out with a "1st" sign (for the first day of school). 





Then Father's Day happened!  My daughter and I painted baseball glove canvases for my hubs and my father in law.  

I created this fun Father's Day card using strips of Jackson paper and the Best Dad Ever stamp set.  So quick and easy!  


I created this mini album for my dad, filling it with photos of the family.  He LOVED it!  I used the My Crush For Him book.  


Then the 4th of July came around.  a few of us made these fun curly mesh wreaths.  




Last, but not least.... CTMH Convention at Disneyland.  Here's a gift I made for my team!  I created note cards for them to write down one or two things they wanted to do right away, and then save for later.  Things they learned from each day of convention.  I decorated the front cover with some stamping (Framework Alphabet & a retired convention set) and some Disney washi tape.  

Stay tuned for LOTS more from Convention :)

If you have just hopped onto my blog, you can start at the beginning at Amber's blog ~ Scrapper's Therapy  If you came from Shelly ~ Just One Piece then you're on the right track! E is for EASTER You may recall a few months ago, I posted a couple layouts from the baby album I am making for my niece.... well she's now 3 months old and I only finished through 4 months!  I have some work to do..... Today I created an Easter Layout using THIS layout as my inspiration.  The Chantilly paper pack is perfectly girly and springy!  I cut two strips of the green pattern, then sliced it up to make it look like grass.  Using Art Philosophy, I cut out a bunch of different eggs in 1 1/2", 1 3/4" and ...
