Scrap Queen

There are so many adorable photos to scrap of Ahoska! In fact the majority of our layouts for 2018 are about her so far! Well I suppose that is to be expected when you get a new pup! I took some photos of Grace walking Ahsoka, and I had to scrap them.  I used a challenge from Lasting Memories  challenge blog for the photos. I will also enter this in a challenge on A Cherry On Top challenge forum for the Scraplift the GD challenge.   Lasting Memories  challenge: Pick 3 - You will be given a list of items and you need to pick 3 items from the list to use on your layout. You can use more than 3 items and you can use things that are not on the list. Just let us know what 3 items you used.

Much of our life, when Ahsoka was a puppy, was dedicated to puppy training. We had treats in our pockets at all times and tried to remember to use the treats to train Ahsoka to be the dog we wanted her to be. She loved the treats and would pretty much do anything asked of her when you had a treat to offer. She was a quick study and Grace enjoyed working with her. In case you think puppy training was easy - nope nope nope!! But, that is another story for another post.  For these photos I used a challenge from The ScrapRoom Blog ! The Challenge: My Layout:    To Create this layout I used: Pink Paislee: Switchboard paper stack Kaisercraft: Pawfect - Dog diecuts Kaisercraft: Party Time - photo overlay Project Life: High Five - photo frame Simple Stories: Hello Fall - paper clip bling from stash Cricut Design Space: Heartbeats: Paw Print Heartbeat Sweethearts: "Puppy" Family Album: "in Training" Close to My...

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 t...
