Scrap it with a song: Just the Two of Us

This week the song at Scrap it with a Song is Just the Two of Us by Will Smith. I love this song. I am so glad I was able to find some time to scrap this one. With all my boys I knew I could come up with something. I used the sketch from the scrappiest for some inspiration. All the paper is either stash, scrap or from my simply delightful pad by My Minds Eye.

Suds in the Bucket

This weeks song at Scrapping the Music is suds in the bucket by Sarah Evans. It is kind of a fun song to listen to. I decided to use the line "in the backyard" for my take and combined it with the sketch from Sketchabilities. I might go back and add some journaling to it some day but I kind of like it the way it is. These pics were taken one random day. We were all outside in the back yard playing t-ball. Everything on it is from my stash. The letters are from piggy tails and I don't recommend them EVER! They truly made me mad while trying to us them. All the cuts are paper dolls everyday.

Scrap it with a song: Lucky

This weeks song at Scrap it with a song is Lucky by Jason Mraz and Colbie Caillat. I have never heard this one but then again I dont get out much...lol. I knew these would be the perfect pics for this song. Tobin and Tanner are the best of friends and the worst of enemies. If you have more then one boy then you know what I mean. The only thing I can tell you about this layout is the paper is basic grey.


UPDATE: This layout won at scrap it with a song!

Scrapping the music

This weeks song at scrapping the music is need you tonight by Inxs. I made a layout of when Tanner first starting feeding himself. I wanted to use a puzzle/game theme (because Tanner thought this was a great game) to the page so I did the title with what looks like scrabble tiles. I don't really care for how this layout came out. I never got an aaahhhhaaaa moment from it where I could see the end result in my head. All I could do was build it. I don't know if that makes sense to anyone or not. Everything on it is from my stash. At the rate I am using my stash I should have it used up by 2015. I need to get a more on....lol.

A Beautiful Sight

This weeks song at Scrap it with a song is Winter Wonderland. I was inspired by one of their DT members named Liz to look beyond just the "snowy" lyrics to use it for something other then playing in the snow. In North Carolina we get snow dustings that last for about an afternoon. One day it will be 32 degrees and snow and we will get 2 inches on the ground. Then the next day it will we 70 out and everything is gone by lunch.

Details:

All the paper is from the Simply Delightful paper pack by My Minds Eye

I also work at Michaels and found the cricut cake carts for $9.99!!! I got the last one my store had (birthday cakes) but it is a small one so maybe you can find one at your store. I cant wait for thanksgiving day sales at Michaels!!!! They are FAB!!!!

Anyway....just wanted to give everyone a heads up!
