Getting "Scrappy" Today!

I've been "scrappy" today, yesterday and the day before! LOL! I got to finish up some more layouts - yeah me! One just "happened" after a trip to a local scrapbook store! I found the PERFECT paper for a picture of my youngest daughter on her first day of kindergarten! She just "had to" give the teacher an apple, her dress had apples on it so the theme had to have apples! Well take a look at the layout below and tell me - was it not the perfect paper?!!




The background paper, if you're interested, came with a sticker on the back saying it's from Provo and is called Grade School Foil, Learning Tree. The rest of the paper was scraps. The stamps are SU Tart & Tangy and Jumbo Outline letters.




Here's my son on his 9th birthday! He was so excited to have all those gifts and the big one, believe it or not was that hat! LOL! It was called a "Lost Kid Hat" when we got it and it was the "hot item" at the time! LOL! Doesn't he look happy! The layout was part of a challenge over on SCS! The bright yellow paper is SU as are the other solid color scraps again! The balloon paper (the patterned paper) is an old sheet from somewhere! LOL! The stamps are part of an SU set called "Birthday Whimsy" and "Big Birthday Candle" and the number came from my new toys, I mean set from JustRite stamps! You'll be seeing more of these! LOL! Of course, the punches are from SU too!

Well thanks for looking,

Until next time........

Hi Michelle ~~ thanks for the comment on my blog. Yes, I've heard of both Spooner & Hartford (which is only about an hour away from me). I lived in Slinger until 5th grade, then we moved here. I'm actually in Vernon, which is just south of Waukesha. Such a small world!
