In Honor of the VanderHoeven's

.
This does not show that most of the bench to the left is covered in junk, under the bench is 100% full, the shelves above it are 100% full. Also what you can't see garage floor. We're lucky that our garage is twice as tall as the avg garage that gives us more room to fill. SAD huh!

Weekly Challenge #2


This is the second week of the Weekly challenges!! I'm so excited about them this is more scarpping than Ive done all last year...slight exaggeration. I was so excited that I finished it up by Sunday. I love my new Sure Cuts A Lot program for Cricut. It cut out this adorable little Frankenstein for Ashten's page. Hope you like it!!
These are the other two kids pages. I don't see any reason to design three different pages for the same holiday so I just change the pics. On Ayden's the Give totalyl bugs me but I couldn't dig it off an move it. Darn. AJ's turned out so cute with the 2 cute 2 spook. Thanks to Mom for helkping me work through that issue:)

Needle Felted Snowman

I get a magazine called Home Arts and on the cover they had a bunch of these ornaments made in all different color combinations. i thought that they were so cute and maybe easy. And you all know my only goal in life is to try every craft known to man! HAHA So I went to Joann's with a gift card and picked up some of the needed items. It is an expensive craft but I did some substitutions and made it work for fairly cheap. Instead of using wool roving Which I did use for the snowman's face, I used sheets of felt that was only 8 for 96 cents instead of 3.99 per color of roving. It was kind of fun and I like how it turned out...although I don't really like this color combo, but I think once I get all of them done it will be very cute to have all diff color combos.

Weekly Challenge #1


Megan had an idea of doing a weekly scrapbook challenge. This weeks challenge was a two page layout dedicated to our High School Reunion. It didn't end up how I planned in my head but it felt good to do some scrapping and to complete it. Can't wait for our next challenge.
If you want to join in the fun, our next challenge's topic will be Halloween. Create a two page spread the due date to post is Friday the 23, 2008. If you are joining in, post a comment to this blog or Megan's craft blog at http://4evercre8ing.blogspot.com/ saying that you want to accept the challenge:)
Megs did I miss anything?
