Life Rules: My 10 Commandments

SOS has had some interesting challenges this week. I was particularly intrigued by the 10 commandments challenge. Here are the rules I live by, or at least try to live by. As you can tell, I am really a simple girl.

Christmas in April

OMG!!! I can't believe how wonderful my friends are. Today I received a surprise care package loaded with scrapbooking supplies. I have new punches, stamps, and embellishments. And the papers, the papers are magnificent. Not only did I get tons of papers from Island Paperie, but I also got handmade paper from Vietnam. How cool is that? I am so very blessed to have such wonderful friends.

Music Makes The World Go Round

A rainy evening filled with tornado warnings...perfect for responding to more scrap challenges.

More Inspiration from SOS

While it has been only a few weeks since I started regularly following online scrap sites, I think I have become addicted to the online challenges. I have found myself incredibly inspired to try several of the card sketches. What's up with that?

Inspired by Sketches

I don't know what I did for unwinding before I started this blog a few weeks ago. Here's my attempt at a Sketches design.

Spring Training

SOS Circle Layout

The Kid and his teammates had the opportunity to train with the Birmingham Barons on Saturday, April 11, 2009. The players worked so well with our little sluggers.

Sisterhood of Scrap Sketch

I was inspired by one of the Sisterhood of Scrap sketches to create this card.

Don't Toss the Bag

Don't know what to do with the cute bag from the souvenir shop? Well, turn it into the background paper for your scrapbook page.

The Kid in Hawaii

Seeing pictures of a friend's recent trip to Hawaii made me reminisce about my trip with the Kid last year.

His Favorite Artist

Let me just say that the Kid loves Taylor Hicks. On Saturday, April 4, 2009, we visited the Alabama Music Hall of Fame specifically for the Kid to see the Taylor Hicks exhibit.
