I Am May’s Guest For…

H&M stamps! Whoo hoo… You can check out the announcement on Heather’s blog. I guess I’m the only one without a photo {::SMILES}. If you’re interested in being a guest for H&M, just send Heather some of your creations via email or link her up to your gallery. This is my first stamps CT and I can’t wait for my first shipment. It’s also an honor to be her May guest CT since that month is her launch month for her new stamp company. It’ll be so fun to be amongst so many other awesome stampers whom many of you know already through SCS and their blogs.
Here are some info on my layouts. The two layouts were created using Cherie Shield’s new Beautiful Soul kit. I really like this kit. It was really fun to play with. The pictures are old… I’m a bit behind with my scrapbooking. Before this year, I think the most that I’ve done in a year is 12 pages. This year I’ve done more as you’ve seen. Being in a few design teams and also this blog has motivated me to keep creating.
The picture on the second layout was taken when hubby returned from a three+ months duty. M was almost 19th months when he came back. Due to dad’s job, M and dad lost almost 7 months of time together (hubby’s gone on a few more since then but they were short trips, 2-6 weeks). Because of his job, M’s a momma’s girl. Even though they’re closer now, if she’s hurt, sick, or just feeling down, mom is who she ask for 95% of the time. It breaks daddy’s heart a lot but it’s gotten a lot better. The pictures on this page is really special because hubby was really worried that she wouldn’t remember him and M wouldn’t want to come to him but he was wrong and she was attached to him from the first time she laid eyes on him. It was a great homecoming.
I had such a great time the last few days at the two crops that I went to. The first one was at a local church. They meet once a month and next month they’re hosting a 15 hour crop. I did one layout and an altered book there. The second one, Saturday, was hosted by the girls’ scout. I did three digi layouts and a paper one. I started doing another one but then ended up stuffing all in my bag since there weren’t a lot of time left by then.
At the Saturday crop, I met up with the ladies that are going to open a scrapbook store here in town. Whoo hoo!!! I gave them a few names that I love. Just like clothes I have a few favorite brand names. Unlike clothes, I can buy which ever brand when it comes to paper and digi since I don’t have to wonder whether that brand carries petite/short items. For paper or none reusable items they’d just stay in my paper bin since they look so pretty and I’m afraid to use them in case I mess up. So, even with a lot of things that I haven’t used, earlier today I orders some Bam Pop, Sassafrass Lass, Adrienne Looman, Hambly, Tinkering Ink, Love Elsie stamps, and alphabets from American Craft from SIStv. Most are paper but I did order a few embellishments like tags and other coordinating items. Ahhh…. I think I need to go to therapy!
