New Puppy!

-
Remembering back to the end of 2017 the biggest standout for memories was when daddy said the kids could get a puppy! We had talked about it for a long time and had even gone and looked at the animal shelters. We had decided that for us we needed a hypoallergenic dog and that starting with a puppy that we could train would be best for us. My sister had a friend who's friend had Golden Doodle puppies that had just been born, on November 21st. We got in contact with her and she reserved us a puppy. We were so excited! We started getting ready for picking her up, which would be right after the first of the year. We decided that her name would be Ahsoka (from Clone Wars, big star wars fans in my house). The kids enjoyed all the prepping, including playing around in Ahsoka's crate. The breeder was so sweet! She sent us pictures of our puppy as she grew!

For this layout I used a sketch from the Sketch n Scrap challenge blog.

The Sketch:


My Take:



To Create this layout I used:

Colorbok: Wild Rose paper stack
Kaiser craft: Distressed - photo overlays
Kaiser craft: Pawfect - Dog - die cut shapes
A Child's Year Cricut Cartridge: Kitty tag and puppy (replaced kitty with puppy hide contour)
Rosalind original font container: for journaling on tag (using cricut pens)
Sweethearts cartridge: title
Prima and Distressing ink from stash


Thanks so much for stopping by,



Blessings,

War Binder

We are now into August and I have been thinking a lot about the fact that school is coming. I have been homeschooling my daughter for the past year and a half. She is now going to go to a Christian school in the fall for junior high. I can't believe that she is in 7th grade already! I am both sad for me and excited for her. One of my favorite things about homeschooling, besides having my daughter home with me everyday, was using my Happy Planner for lesson planning. I love my lists and seeing my week planned out on paper. So, I was thinking through how to make a good use of my Happy Planner this coming year. I a blog post on how to set up a  War Binder . I looked into this War binder thing a little more closely and decided that that is exactly what I wanted to do with my Planner. I spent a lot of time looking around on FB and Pinterest to get ideas and eventually just decided that I just needed to start it.  I have struggled with making time for Bible Study and prayer ...

Let's Scrap - Friends Forever

Since moving away from my home town I don't get to see my old high school/college friends very often. There was a core group of us that hung out beginning in high school and we are all friends still. The one friend that was responsible for all of us meeting and ultimately becoming friends was getting married. It was so fun to all be back together for an evening. What was also fun was seeing all of our children together. Definitely one of those sentimental moments that needs to be scrapbooked and kept for all time! Let's Scrap has a fantastic sketch up on the blog that was perfect for these pictures. This sketch included a fun element: booklet. At first I had some trouble figuring out how to do this but then it became clear. I hope you enjoy the layout and the booklet as pictured for you below. I decided to use the left side of the layout. And I hope you are inspired to try this fun element on your next layout! The Sketch: My Take (on the left side of the...
