Scraptacular Stuff...FINALLY!

All right, here's my pathetic amount of projects I worked on (minus the couple layouts I had already started that were super old and minus the home decor project I did because technically I haven't finished it yet. Must get pictures for it! So I'll post that when I'm done.)

This is the mini star chipboard album that was a challenge. The challenge was to cover each star with something, whether it be paper, embellishments etc, and this is what I did. I haven't included pictures of all the pages, but you get the gist of what I was getting at. Also, I may go back later and embellish some more, but I just wanted to get it done and not waste my whole Saturday on it when I had other projects to work on :)

Other pages include:

Trevor Linden (my hockey hero)

Jonathan Knight (my celebrity crush)

McDonalds (fave fast food)

Ferrero Rocher (yummy chocolates)

Rooster (I love chickens)

Louis Vuitton Speedy 25 handbag (I own one!!!)

(The little album bit worked out good because I had the pictures already printed out in wallet size because I needed them for a class I thought I'd signed up for at Scraptacular LAST year and it turns out I hadn't LOL)

Oh! I must mention that someone at the crop did their little album in black and red and it was dedicated to Twilight and I tell you, it was GORGEOUS!!!!! Like seriously, if I was a thief, she never would have seen her project again. LOL It was positively beeeee-ooooootiful! I kind of wish I'd been ball-sy enough to ask if I could snap some pics of it.

And now, onto layouts...

You had me at Hello

(he was so smitten with her)

'Nuff said...LOL

(yes I realize that the 'H' is crooked in the pic,

it wasn't that sticky and moved when I tried to take the pic)

(I just LOVE her blog and scrappy creations!)

So there you have it, some of my stuff. Hope those of you who were waiting anxiously and tapping fingers are happy! LOL

Not too much going on around here. I did convince Zane to take a trip to Edmonton yesterday and it was fun! I think we've found the RV we'll end up getting but I won't post about it until the deal actually happens LOL We also hit IKEA and Motherhood Maternity. I really wanted a few different tops for this time around. The Brick was our first stop this morning and we left there with a new couch for the basement (ours sucks haha) as well as a new bed and flatscreen tv. I'm pretty psyched!! Talk about spoiled!!! Now hopefully my hubby is true to his word in that he may paint downstairs during Easter weekend :) Then all we'll need to do is fix the 'carpet issue' which I won't go in to on here and our basement will finally be 'normal'. To sum things up, the people who lived here before us had some WEIRD decorating ideas.

Well, Flames are on again and I'm thinking of maybe working on some more projects while hubby is attached to the tube. I really want to make a mini album of my NKOTB concert pics and I finally found a chipboard album to use that might work...AND I finally have some papers where I have multiple papers that match (thank you Stampin' Up LOL) At least I'm hoping those papers will work. I think they'll be cute though because they have cherries on them, and some have skulls and they're in cool colors. Guess we'll see!!!

Thanks for checking in!

I'm alive!! No worries! LOL

I see that there's been some concern over my 'lack thereof' presence on here by a few people so I'm checking in quickly to say hello and say that I really have no excuse other than that I'm so freakin' tired all the time. This baby is wearing me out already and I'm only 14 weeks! But on a high note, I'm starting to feel movement already and that's just crazy! I was 18 weeks when I noticed with Trevin so this is definitely a nice change!

So it was girlie weekend last weekend and I went to Scraptacular in Cold Lake with my sister and friend Nicole. It was such a good time!! Tiring, but worth it!!! The theme this year was Movie Premiere/Hollywood, so were were asked to dress for the Red Carpet on Friday night. It was cool because as we loaded our stuff in, there was a red carpet laid down on the floor and a lady was there snapping pictures, kind of like the paparazzi. I just thought it was kind of sad that she took the pictures while we still had our coats on and were hauling in all our bags etc. But fun none the less!

We scrapped until 1am each night and were done in the afternoon on Sunday. I didn't get as much done as I wanted to, but was so happy for finishing a small chipboard album with pictures of things I like in it. The canvas class we took was awesome too, but I didn't finish my project yet because I don't have appropriate pictures yet. So I'm going to be playing shutterbug here to try to get something that will work in it. Andrea Beaumont is awesome though! She comes up with some beautiful items! She's the one who taught the canvas class I took last year too.

Unfortunately it snowed all weekend so it made for some questionable roads for Sunday's drive home, so we all decided to spend another night and just get some sleep because we were so tired! It was good to sleep in and then take our time driving home.

The view from my table when we first got there. There were 85 croppers in total!

Door prize table (WOWZERS!)

ANOTHER door prize table!

Me the first night with a layout I was working on

Nicole is a Happy Scrapper!

My sis is just a little bit excited about starting her canvas project!

Our friends Keri & Melissa who we met the first year. Because we stayed the extra night we were able to have dinner with them and it was great! I think they each did around 30 pages during the weekend...really puts me to shame! LOL

Well I'm off to unload my stuff and hopefully get some pictures taken of the layouts etc that I did manage to do while we were there. Unfortunately, the vendor show took up a LOT of time because all I wanted to do was shop (and I wasn't alone in this venture either haha). Off to put the third tier on my clip it up!
