"U A-Z"


I'm submitting this one to Frosted Designs (http://frosteddesigns.blogspot.com/) for their National Scrapbooking Day challenge to use flowers on a layout. I layered a white flower on top of a red flower and topped it off with a self-adhesive heart gem.
I created this layout for my husband to use all of the letters of the alphabet to tell him some of the aspects that I love about him.

"Paris & Aunt Nora"


I created this layout to submit to Frosted Designs (http://frosteddesigns.blogspot.com/) National Scrapbooking Day Challenge to create a girly layout and use one item on the layout that can't be found in a scrapbook store or scrapbook dept. of a store. My non-scrapbook dept. item is notebook paper.
Journaling: Paris is my friend Lucy's daughter. She is 6 years old. They live in Texas so I only get to see them once a year, but somehow I have developed a strong bond with Paris.

"Home Chefs"


I'm entering this one into 3 challenges: Sketchy Thursdays (www.sketchythursdays.com), The Scrapping Chics Challenge Blog (http://scrappinchicschallenge.blogspot.com/), whose current challenge is kitchen-themed, and one of the National Scrapbooking Day challenges at Frosted Designs (www.frosteddesigns.blogspot.com), the challenge being to use circles on a layout.
Journaling: Bill brought home a catalog from work that had work related apparel. I asked him if we could get chefs coats to wear when we cook at home. He said yes and ordered them for us.

"My King"


I am submitting this layout to Club Ck's (www.clubck.com) weekly challenge for this week (May 1). The challenge this week is in honor of the royal wedding. The criteria are: (1) You have to use a royal title in the title of the layout (2) You have to use bling on it. I had recently created a layout about Bill and my nicknames for each other (I'm his angel and he's my king) but I didn't use bling in it so I had to create another one using bling. I got to thinking about how I would create another layout using my nickname for Bill, then when I was watching The Newlywed Game yesterday one of the questions the ladies were asked was "Which of these famous Davids does your husband remind you of?" When I'm watching the show, I try to answer the questions as if I was being asked. Well, when she asked the question, I was expecting King David of the Bible to be one of the choices, but he wasn't. Anyway, I got to thinking why Bill is like King David and I came up with the idea for this layout. Here is the journaling: "I was watching the Newlywed Game. The ladies were asked "Which of these famous Davids does your husband most remind you of?" I was expecting King David from the Bible to be among them, but he wasn't. The choices were: David Beckham, Dave Chappelle and David Hasselhoff. My husband isn't anything like any of them. He's more like King David, because although he has his weaknesses, he has a good heart, just like David, the man after God's own heart. Coincidentally, my nickname for Bill is my king.
