Croppin' with the Cousin



I went to my cousin's house to scrap on Saturday. The first few hours it was apparent that nothing was going to come easy. I was mojo-less. I ended up doing five layouts. Since I so often complain that I don't like this or that, I am only going to comment on what I do like about the three layouts above. Number one...on the queen layout...I like the pink ribbon border. In fact...I like that a lot. Number two...So Delish...I love the photos. Nick rarely will allow photos to be taken, so getting ones like this sent my heart sailing. I also love the ribbon. LOVE LOVE LOVE. My cousin had that and it seems as if she is becoming my ribbon supplier. LOL! Thank you again, Cindy. Number three...Dave and Kelly...I love the whole dingety dang thing. This is a scraplift of Tina Aszmus' - His Love layout. I really liked how she mixed ribbon and paper strips. Plus the typed vintage journaling on her layout is awesome.
On a non-scrapping topic, please keep me in your thoughts from 11:00 a.m. until 1:30 p.m. central time as I will be wrestling with the big rat, Chuck E. Truly, Chuck E. Cheese was invented just to send willies up my spine. UGH...not only do you get to deal with a rodent, but thousands of screaming kids. Don't get me wrong I love kids. Just not in a space designed to hold half as many as they cram in there. OH MY LORD...I have turned into the crotchety old lady who screams at kids for playing too loud. When the heck did that happen?!

Denise, I like all of the LO's. I especially love the first one. Love the crown. I rarely get to do girly LO's. unless they are of me. Maybe I can do a LO of me wearing a crown. Hmmm...just a thought. My son is 8 and loves Chuck E Cheese. Definately not one of my favorite places, but it makes him happy. So, I guess I can handle it for a little while. :-)
