Blog Changes and Layouts!

So, as you probably all now know, I'm taking this Beyond Blogging for Scrapbookers by Shimelle and have been thinking a lot about the look of my blog.  I've also been trying to decide what's useful and not, so I have another survey for you...

I'm also going to show you some creative stuff that's going on for classes this coming month at Precious Memories.  The new 3Bugs Dawson is so cute that we ordered the kits for a layout class.  You get 4 pages of layouts and then a ton of extra product to take home!

Perfect for your boys!

It's been a crazy week around here with a PAC meeting, a local council meeting for George, a preschool meeting, a class to teach tonight and being sick with a cold as well.  Looking forward to tomorrow and not having to work in the evening as usual since the store is closed early for Good Friday.

Looking to get a couple more things crossed off my to-do list today too! 

Have a good one!

Cheers,

Times Gone By...

So as some of you know from reading things around here the last couple of days, I'm doing Shimelle's new class.  One of the things we're doing is having a look back at some of our posts and finding ones we liked and thinking about the reasons why.  I have linked to some previous posts and have grouped them...

These are a combination of family stuff celebrating the everyday along with some creative stuff on many of them
Around Here... - idea based on one of Ali Edwards posts
Fun Monday - field trip recap, a card and a little about the day
Snow Day #2 - some snow pics, a layout and a conversation with my son
Mindful Gratitude - a personal reminder of how blessed I really am
Happy New Year - year in review
Photo Booth Fun - exactly that!
Happy Mother's Day - some cards and a recap of our Mother's Day!

These really are scrapping related and I wish I can done more of the scrappy year in review type posts to be honest!

I'd love any feedback you have on the ones you liked and what you prefer to read/see when you're blog hopping!!  Looking back at my blog and a lot of the posts made me very thankful for having posted what I have even if it's not everyday as it's a glimpse into our crazy lives and my creative life as well!

Thanks for popping by!
Cheers,

More class sneaks and a survey!

Yes, it's another crazy weather day around here, so I thought I'd try and pop in again!  Today, I've got another question for you and a first on my blog - a survey!

These are two of the 8 cards that we'll be doing in the new Gabrielle class at Precious Memories if you're local as well.  If you can't make the class on the evening of the 12th, there are kits available too!

Well the pouring rain just started again and now that the kids have had lunch, I'd better go get some chores done.  Got some errands done this morning and ordered my sister's birthday present, so it's already been a productive day.  Kyle has karate after school, I have a PAC meeting tonight and George is going to a council meeting about a property in out neighbourhood that wants to subdivide!  Things never seem to slow down!

Have a great evening and enjoy the hockey game if you're in BC!

A Class for Me and Some Cards!

Well, hello again!  Hard to believe it's Monday again already.  I'm embarking on a new little project for the next few weeks and having fun with the new class from Shimelle about Blogging for Scrapbookers. 

One of the things I'm wondering about after seeing all of you out there that pop by once in a while is how you actually found my blog?  Would you mind leaving me a quick note and letting me know!?  I need to satisfy my curiosity if you don't mind and it'll help me a little in terms of knowing who you are and what you're looking at when you pop in!  Thanks so much to those of you that do!

OK, for those of you that are local, I wanted to let you know that the May class schedule is up and you can sign up for classes anytime either in the store or by phone.  The cards above are from the Black, White and Pink All Over - Second Edition since the first one was so popular!  I'll be showing you a few more samples over the next few days too!

It was a busy morning at preschool since I was on duty and I didn't get anything done around here, so I'd better run!  Need to get Kyle from school shortly too and I'm  looking forward to the little walk in the sunshine.  Maybe we'll play outside there for a bit even since it's so nice.

Have a great evening and I look forward to hearing from some of you!
Cheers,
