Sad news for a Scrappy friend

I am terribly saddened to find out that Staci Compher, a guest DT member of TallyScrapper, has lost her husband.

I cannot imagine what she and her family are going through right now. I am sincerely at a loss for words. Please join me in expressing our support for her and her family through this sad time.
Please take a moment to visit Staci's Blog, and if your able please make a donation.

Thank you all!

this week

for Scrapping the Music the song is You'll be in my Heart by Phil Collins. I knew right away who I was going to scrap, you see last year on Nov. 5th my brother Michael passed away. I have been dreading the one yr. anniversary of his death, but I knew that I had to honor his memory. So I created this layout in honor of him, because he will always be in my heart. It was such a healing experience, yes I cried as I held his photo in my hand, as I created the layout, and when it was done I cried, but I know he's in a better place.

Hey everyone

here I am playing catch up. Just wanted to let you all know not forget to post your layouts to Scrapping the Music Blog, this week the song is My Wish by Rascal Flatts. I had never heard the song prior to creating my layout for the DT, but when I read the words I got chills. Love the song. I can't wait to see your layouts posted, this weeks sponsor is Fresh Pages Co. .

Also Savvynsassy Ribbon kit is having their GDT contest for the month of November, so come on over for details here.

Some of my layouts this month created for Scrapping the Music, Savvynsassy, and Scrapncircle.

October already!!

I just cant believe it, how fast does the time goes. This is my favorite time of year, because it all starts with change. I love how the colors of the leaves on trees change, it's like a new beginning. It's like having a second chance to blossom all over, but in a different light.
This time of year is when I stop and think what to I want to change about me, well of course it would be my weight, before Thanksgiving I would love to lose at least 10 pounds, is it possible yes, but I have to CHANGE my eating habits. I don't think eating 2 mini MR. Goodbar's is good at 9pm. Or my favorite coolatta coffee from Dunkin Dounuts (vanilla bean) will help either. UHM so what am I going to change, I think it will be my perspective on my life. I just need to be happy in the skin that I am in and change not because of the weight, but because of my health. You know I am not going to stay healthy eating junk food, so today I will try to just eat healthy. Can I live without my Coolatta yes, can I live with out my French Vanilla coffee (maybe), but I will try.
I challenge you all to create a layout using the word Change in it!! Have fun, email me with your layout and I will enter you in a drawing for a RAK!!!
