Hello Summer

I was able to snap a few pictures on the last day of school.  Kids were so excited! This design was inspired by the Sketchy Thursdays (thanks again).

Brother and Sister

Sketchy Thursdays LO is keeping me motivated with my scraping.

I also added a second page to the layout for a full two page spread. 

Together

My husband took these pictures several years ago as the kids and I were enjoying the sunset at Cannon Beach. It is one of my favorites. I used the LO from Sketchy Thursdays . I used textured and patterned papers that would highlight the pictures rather than some busier patterns this time around.

Birthday Reflections - Last Year

Last year, today, I headed home after being away for a month in cancer treatment to surprise my kids. Best Birthday gift to myself -- ever.  A lot has improved since then and we are getting back to normal. We will always remember our journey and appreciate each day.  Have a great one today.

note: this is in the "sketchy Thursdays" layout

Excited to be one of the Craft Warehouse Design Team members! Announced this week on their website.

Be The One Run - support patients in need of a bone marrow transplant

Hi there! I had Leukemia and my brother was my donor. Many people must go through the registry. Please view the video and pass onto friends and family... who knows, they could be the one and save someone's life (like my brother did for me).
