Hanging By A Moment at Scrapping The Music...

Hey there everyone - the new challenge at Scrapping The Music is "Hanging By A Moment" by Lifehouse. It's a song with lots of great lyrics that inspire me, I could have gone many different directions with this one, but here's what spoke to me...
With the tough year we've been having, Michael has been my rock; and I am so grateful for him! Love you darlin!!!

I used my March Scarlet Lime kit for this one, plus I busted out the sewing machine AND paint! I think it's the first time I've done both on one layout - it was fun!

Come on over and play along with us at STM! We'd love to see what you create!!! Click here to go to the challenge!

Today is April 1st - the day I've been waiting for for awhile now....

It's the starting day for 21 SECRETS!!! I can't wait to get my access to the workshop forum, so I can dive in! I will keep you posted!

Thanks so much for visiting and for your comments - I appreciate you so much!!!

What's Your Fave Scrappy Tool?

The new challenge is up at Fave Things, and it's all about scrapping your favorite creative tool! So, what's yours??? Mine is PAINT...
I had so much fun making this layout because I absolutely used just what I had on hand. The kraft paper in the background was the paper on my scrap desk, used to catch all my paint splatters. And the hearts were cut from a piece of watercolor scrap where I had tested my new watercolors to see how they would look painted over white crayon. As you can tell, I can't bear to throw any painted scraps away!

I also grabbed a tube of gouache that I just finished and pasted it right on the page...
That tube of gouache is at least 20 years old - no lie! I bought a bunch of tubes in college and they lasted this long! With that much history I just couldn't throw it away!

Come on over to the Fave Things blog and play along with us! Show us what your fave scrappy tool is! Click here to go to the challenge!

I've been sprucing up my art journaling tools in preparation for 21 Secrets, which starts tomorrow! I hope I see some of you over there - that would be totally fun!

One More List...

Tuesday's subject at 30 Days of Lists, was "Favorite Foods." That was an easy one!
The photo of the cute little bird was taken one time a few years back, when my mom and I were sitting at an outdoor cafe. I just thought he was so cute, and I've been waiting for a chance to use him - Fave Foods seemed like a good opportunity! Here are links to some of my fave foods:

Pizza Luce (best vegan pizza ever! My fave is the Little Gracie)
Hummus - (my fave brand is Sabra)
Edy's Frozen Fruit Bars (Love them all, but Pomegranite and Tangerine are the best!)
Clif Bars (Love them all!)

Only two more days til 21 Secrets! Yeayyy!

Thanks for visiting and I will see you again soon! Have an awesome Wednesday my friends!
