Game Boys







This weekend, I got to have a scrap retreat with some of my partners in crime. I stayed only Friday and part of Saturday, but I got some fun pages done. This one is one of my favorites because it shows our everyday life, not some big event. The boys were playing dominoes one day. They were getting along so well. I used CTMH's Seredipity Paper pack for this, along with Little Boys stamp set, Childhood Boy stamp set, Outdoor Denim striped ribbon, pewter accents, and little brads for the domino dots:) I think those are so fun!!

Oooh, I LOVE this paper!


I found this paper on a wild scrapbooking shopping trip that I took with Ms. Katie Lou. I had a friend who lost her mother-in-law last week, so this was what I came up with to send her. I love the black backdrop. It just makes it look so ...can't think of a word...not classy, but maybe classic. I don't know. Anyway, I used CTMH stamps with it and Coluzzle's template for the file folder.

New Family Blog

I have created a new family blog. I needed a place to have my scrapbook and card creations, so that is what this site will remain. The new site for my personal stuffs is http://briggsfamilydays.blogspot.com/

Aaaahh! Christmas pages!




I LOVE doing Christmas pages before the season gets here because it gets me all excited. These are actually from last Christmas...yes, I am getting "caught up" in my scrappin'. I did these pages with all CTMH. I used the new Evensong Creative Basics paper, cranberry and New England Ivy CS, Fair Blossoms stamp set, the Baroque stamp set, and few odds and ends.

Cute Lil Boxes




I made these for my business handouts, but these would also be super for anything little...like the truffles I am planning on making for Christmas this year:) NUMMY! These were very quick to make and required a very small amount of supplies. They only measure 2"x2"x2".

A (deep voice) MANLY page

Is there such thing as a manly scrap page?? Well, I do attempt to do these a few times a year so Tom will feel part of the album:) I usually don't like to visit his job sites because this is what goes on...too stressful for me. BUT, he loves his job and that makes me happy, too. I guess it's all the chainsaws, trucks, cranes, etc etc. I used my CTMH homestead alphabet and the Ponderosa Pine with Brown bag colors also from CTMH. I need to make something pink now.
