Everyday Life

While watching The Masters with Don on Sunday I scrapbooked for the first time in quite a while. I got three layouts done which is rather remarkable since I've only created a grand total of five for all of this year. Honestly, the closing of Lifetime Moments was really depressing after being a part of the team for so long.  I really just needed to take a break.  Unfortunately, the break has taken longer than I intended.  It felt good to put photos to paper again even though none of the layouts are going to win any prizes! I I really don't want this to just be a cards blog although I really enjoy making them. 

Here are two of the layouts, both featuring my granddaughter Clara and primarily using the Little Yellow Bicycle Clothesline collection.  Beware, girly girl stuff ahead. 

First up is "On the Hunt".  Clara and I "practiced" hunting eggs at my house before Easter. She loved it so much that we wound up hunting for them three times that day. 

Products: Little Yellow Bicycle pp, My Mind's Eye diecut, Prima flower, American Crafts thickers and Doodlebug letter stickers, May Arts ribbons, Making Memories glass sticker, Pink Paislee brad, Cosmo Cricket chipboard

"10 Things I Love about Everyday Life" features a list of items that Clara loves right now.

Everyday life is quite busy right now. Our anniversary was last Friday plus we had family visiting this past weekend. A good friend of Don's is visiting this week so I did a lot of preparing beforehand. They left on a road trip to play golf with a couple of other guys today. They'll be staying at a casino and plan on gambling a bit too. For some reason I am having visions of "The Hangover." 

Happy tax day!
