This is the layout I will be doing at my workshop in May. I got the idea from the Vacation layout I did at the 2009 CTMH Album Retreat. My camera is broken, so the photograph seems dull and unclear. Sorry!

"Don't Walk Away" - New Moon Soundtrack

My cousin, Kristin Coppee, wrote a song called Don't Walk Away, with her band The Mending Seed. They wrote the song for the movie New Moon. They are campaigning to get it into the movie. Go to this YouTube link and listed to it. If you like it, please feel free to share it with your family and friends.

Easter Egg Hunt Layout with Pictures

Here is my Easter Egg Hunt layout with pictures. The pictures were taken last year in March 2008. It was so cold that morning. My children ended up going on two egg hunts. I had them list their top 10 things the like about Easter egg hunts.

Flower Birthday Card

I used CTMH Originals Card Confidence Program to make this card. I love how it turned out.

Birthday Cards

I made these card for my workshop this past week.

LOVE Cube

This is another project I received at a scrapbook retreat back in February. It was fun making this box. I didn't close the box completely, so I could open it and put stuff inside. The box was created by Sherri R.

April Workshop

This is a layout I will be doing for my workshop in April. I used Oct 2007 PageMaps for the layout design. I got the title "EGG Hunt" from another CTMH consultant, Nicole and used the same colors she did for the letters.

Notepad, Pen and Photo Holder!

I love this cute project and plan on making more of the photo holder's. I received the project in a swap I did in February. The project was created by Autumn Gittins.

March Workshop

This layout, two cards and criss-cross box is for my March workshop.

Criss-Cross Box!

This criss-cross box was quick and easy to create. I received the project in a swap I did in February. I do not remember the name of the girl who did this, but she got the idea from Nichole Heady a designer for Papertrey Ink. I added brads to my cupcake and the ribbon around the box to make it stand out.

The FOUR Hour Project....Milk Cartons & Container!

These four little milk cartons and container took me about four hours to make. I'm not sure if I will ever make one of these again, even if it is cute. I received the project in a swap I did in February. I do not remember the name of the girl who did this, but she got the idea from Becky Roberts a Stampin Up demonstrator.

Round Tin and BLOG Candy Winner!

This cute round tin was something I received at a scrapbook retreat where we all swapped a project and/or layout. The tin was designed by Galene R.

The blog candy winner is Vicki from Bark River, MI. Send me an e-mail and let me know what your address is, so I can send you a Reach for the Stars layout. Thanks everyone for all your nice comments!

Notice my daughter's frown. I told her she had to take a bath and go to bed, after she draws a name. She is not happy with me! LOL!

Valentines FUN - Share the LOVE!

I saw this on Lea's blog and thought would be fun to play myself. She always makes the cutest things, so I can't wait to get something from her. Thanks Lea!

To show the LOVE this week and to celebrate Valentine's Day, here is what you do. The first 3 people to leave a comment on this post will receive, at some point during the year, a handmade gift from me. What it will be and when it will arrive is a total surprise! The catch is that you must participate as well. Before you leave your comment, write up a pay it forward post on your blog to keep the fun going. Then come back, let me know you're going to play and sit back and anticipate the arrival of your gift! Be sure to send me an e-mail and tell me your address.

Remember, you must post this on your blog (I will be checking) and leave a comment. The first 3 to do both will receive a gift from me, so be quick!

Reach for the STARS and BLOG CANDY!!!

This is the layout I did for a swap at an all day retreat at Sheri R's house. Only a few people were invited, so I was honored to be one of the few to attend. I received 14 projects to make, but only ended up completing a few. One project took me about 4 hours to make! I will post some of the fun projects later this week, and the others when I complete them.

I used a PageMaps layout, which I located on Jena's blog. I always find such great ideas from her blog. Thanks Jena! The pictures are of my son and daughter, which were taken in September 2007.

Okay, for the blog candy, leave a comment on this post and your name will be entered into a drawing for a Reach for the STARS layout kit. I will draw a winner on February 16. I also am giving two away now to Jena and Stacy, because I won blog candy from both of them and wanted to give something in return. I will get theirs in the mail later this week.

Sneak Peak

I was invited to an all day scrapbook retreat this coming Saturday. We are all supposed to bring a project to share with everyone. I am excited to see and make all the fun things. This is a sneak peak at the 1-page 12X12 layout I will be sharing with everyone. I will post the layout on Saturday, so come back to see it!

My Creations Cube and KTMH paper

I went to a workshop at my up-line's house (Brandy Jo). We made this cute cube. She got the idea (for the row of flowers) from the CTMH Spring 2009 Idea Book. The other sides of the cube was created by her. Thanks Brandy Jo for being a great up-line and creating such a fun project!

Project 365 (first page)

I finally finished the first page of my Project 365 for 2009. Hopefully, I will get the other pages/weeks done quickly so I don't get far behind!

NOTE: The Julian calender list January 1 to 3 of 2009 in week 53 of 2008. January 4 starts week 1 of 2009. That's why I didn't list week 1 on this post!

2009 CTMH Album Retreat Layouts

Here are all the layouts I made while at the CTMH Album Retreat, in Salt Lake City, UT. I will post them again (individually) with pictures. I had a great time and meet so many amazingly crafty and artisitc ladies. I plan to never miss a CTMH Album Retreat.
