Well I am still working on the ADSR challenges!! I finished number 3 today. Here’s the layout I did:

I am so happy with this. We had to go to one of our galleries and use the FIRST layout posted and redo it. I chose my Scrappin Freestyle gallery and this layout. I’ve evolved so much as a scrapper in such a short time. I can’t believe it!! You can see the new layout here at DST with all the credits. I love it!!
Tomorrow is hubby’s birthday. No big plans. He works all day, actually until 6pm. I’ll likely make a nice dinner and that will be that. Tonight we are headed off to the gym for the Monday routine and then home to watch some TV and an early night in bed. I’m exhausted and it’s Monday… my least favorite day of the week. The kids both had school today. It’s cold here… they are predicting more snow. Please tell me that isn’t so!! I don’t want anymore snow. I am praying for an early spring. I just want some warm weather already!! Okay bloggers… I’ll see you soon!!!

So we are cruisin’ right along in this little race. Today Blythe and I finished up Challenge 2. It was over at Elemental Scraps. It was a collab challenge. It was pretty east for us since our scrapping styles are pretty similar. I started the layout with the papers, pictures and of course the journaling… and Blythe finished it off…. I think it looks AMAZING!! I say we make 1 heck of a team!!! Here’s a look at the masterpiece:

We used supplies from the Oscraps Collab Parisan Holiday, Vacation Paradise by Micheline Martin, All Things Natural by Micheline Martin, New Beginnings Kit by Blythe Evans, Stitchwork2 by Micheline Martin, Mark That Date by Micheline Martin, Strings N Things by Micheline Martin and Graphtastic Alpha by Blythe Evans – all available at Oscraps!! Fonts are CK Handwriting & Pea Sarah Cute. The subjects are of course my beautiful babies!! In the hot hot JULY weather here!!
I headed off to the gym this morning right at 8:30am with hubby. It seems to work better to go in the morning and get it done with. I however didn’t want to come home and deal with all the phone calls. I had to call the home insurance, Sprint, and a few other places. That stuff is never fun. At least now I can spend my afternoon relaxing!!

It’s officially started!! Today the ADSR 4 started. I am so happy to be playing in this race. I feel like I am on top of my scrapbooking game with this. I just hope that I don’t lose site or creativity along the way. Hopefully I will be okay and I have my partner to keep my going and give me a kick in the butt. So far it’s going well. I did my first layout today for the challenge. It was to use a picture that was torn at least 3 times and include journaling. This is the layout I managed to scrap:

You can see the layout here at DST with full credits. I also have it up at our ADSR blog. Don’t forget to stop by there and see Blythe’s version of this challenge!! It’s great to see the other team mate’s version of the challenge as well!! I know this is a short post but it’s all I have for today. I am off to get some much needed relaxation!! Have a good night bloggers!!

I just decided to relax and get some of my supplies unzip and organized. Blythe and I are getting ready for the ADSR 4 that starts tomorrow. I made the blinkie and finally got it done tonight. *blush* I ran a little behind on that. I am going to add it to the side bar and link it to our ADSR blog, but don’t worry I will be posting all the ADSR stuff here too so you can see it. You won’t miss out. Alot has been happening and I know that I’ve sorta been MIA and my blog has been neglected but I promise I will be back! I just had so much happen in real life I had to take some time off-line to deal with all of that. It’s hard, but we all get through it. We are NEVER given more then we can handle… and I know that… So I know I can get through all of this… Anyhow… here’s our team blinkie:

Isn’t that adorable? I love it. I used all Blythe’s goodies. You can see her Oscraps store here. Just in case you haven’t been by Jodie’s Oscraps store check her’s out too.
