My Scrappy Space Now!!

So before I get started…I personally think that the best thing about being a Mom are the random things that my children (Sammy – 5 and Paige – 2) do for me to tell me or show me that they love me. My son says once or twice a day “Mom I sure do Love You!” and occasionally I get the random flower picked from the flowers in the yard…or the yellow ones growing in the grass…none the less it makes my heart smile just the same!!

So I didn’t clean up very well when I took these pictures! I have decided to go with a Black, White and Pink theme in there! It is so much fun!! I am wanting a black chandelier eventually in there and a black counter height table in the middle…but I think I can make due for now!! lol…

This first pictures is now the view from the far door. I just put up the Chandelier black and white curtains yesterday and I’m way excited about them!!!

Here’s the view from the main door…

This is the wall to the right of the main door…still pretty much the same as last time…my inspiration board is starting to fill up though!! I’m running out of wall space though so I don’t have room for another one :-(

Here’s a close-up of my inspiration board! Fun things I’ve received…I want to use…or ideas I printed out…or things I don’t want to loose.

This is my work area! I am in the middle of sorting my photos and starting a new layout…

My collection of H’s…so exciting!!!

Left side of the shelves…

The center of my shelves…

Well that’s just about it for tonight….I was going to post some of my new layouts. But I think I will just make you wait until tomorrow! Happy Scrapping!!! Heather

Back From Scrapfest and Some!!

 

I’m not sure how the heck Michelle traveled with me…I’m seriously the worlds worst traveler. Evidently I was such a wreck the guy sitting kitty corner from me on the plane couldn’t quit looking back at me…seriously!! Here we are getting to the Rapid City Airport to fly out! I don’t look it…but I was a hot mess of nerves! lol…

What a fun weekend! Scrapfest itself was slightly disappointing…however….spending the weekend with Michelle, her Mom and Niece was lots and lots of fun!! Lots of giggles, laughs and good times! It was also lots and lots of fun to meet Dan from Fancy Pants and Madison from Echo Park Paper. I’ve “met” these guys on the phone so it was great to put faces to voices!!

Here is Dan from Fancy Pants and I in front of Achievers…

Here is Madison from Echo Park Papers, Michelle and I…

So the Make and Take lines were CRAZY!! There were women who brought chairs so they could sit in line…before we left I was super super excited to stand in line for however long for every make and take. I made it through one line and then gave up :-( My stamina wasn’t quite what I hoped….Lol…

Michelle and I also happened to be in the right spot at the right time…and yes…we did get a photo with Tim Holtz!! How great is that??!!??

So we didn’t have the brilliant idea to get a photo of us in front of the Mall of America until the last day…and to think we call ourselves scrappers!!!

I want to share a couple of layouts that I have done…these are older ones…but I love them just the same!! My Grandfather passed away and I made an album to have at my Grandmas house while she received guests over the weeks after he passed. It’s so fun to go back and look at old photos…my Grandpa John was quite the handsome fellow!!

This layout is one of my favorites of my daughter…I think the paper is why I love this layout!! My daughter turned two in July and let me tell you what…I love her to death…but I’m pretty sure if she would have been our first…there probably wouldn’t have been a second!! lol….she truly is amazing and I love every moment I have with her!

It’s been a long weekend and I’m headed to bed…I will try to update with new pictures of my Scrappy Space!! I have done lots in there since my initial room post a few years ago! Happy Scrapping! :0) Heather

Scrapfest 2010!!!!

So my Best Friend and BigScrapDeal.com partner Michelle and I are getting ready to head to Scrapfest at the Mall of America…I am so excited despite my extreme nervousness and anxiety to be away from my family and home!

Can’t wait to share with all my fellow scrappy friends the fun times and great products!! :0) Heather

Seriously!!!

Wow!! I'm seriously the WORST blogger on the face of the planet. I have been scrapping and creating like crazy...however I have become LAZY with sharing it!!

My friend Michelle and I started a website about a year ago called BigScrapDeal.com. We are having so much fun with that. We keep adding to our lists of vendors and bringing more and more deals out there to our fellow crafters!

So…I am going to TRY to post more often than once a year…and loose the worse blogger ever on the face of the planet title that I have earned!!

Happy Scrapping!!!
