APOS! December Reveal....We had to do a canvas...here's what I came up with...I painted the canvas and sanded it...the little flowers around the bottom are stamped. I love these colors!

 Here is the sketch of the week on the APOS! forum...It looked like fun to me!

Here's what I came up with!

Wow did Novemeber ever slip away!!!! Can you believe only 22 more sleeps untill Christmas!!!!

One of the highlights for November was we went to Johnny Reid!!! What a great concert!!!!!

Isn't my baby girl growing up!!! What a doll!

 We had our pictures taken by Miranda O'leary in Saint John....but I can't share all of them because they are christmas gifts!!!!

Brrrr what a frosty morning! Just wanted to post some of my recent LO's...here's 3 of 9 my computer isn't cooperating...I promise I will try and post the rest later today :)

Collin had left me this note on the school themed paper so I thought it would be fun to scrap it! I really like how it turned out!

I did this one for a challenge for A Pile of Scrap! As I was working away on it I wasn't sure if I was going to like it but I love how it turned out! 

My Journey....LOAD

What a relief! Finally finished and submitted my 12 page "My Journey" album....this was a LOAD for APOS! I am really happy that I participated but glad it's over! So much journalling!!!!
This page was all about me...who I am right now!

 This was about where we came from...

 childhood...

 A Story...

 Accomplishments or milestones

 A mess...

 Family and me...who i am in my family (2 pages)

 Job...

 Friends and Folk (I plan on adding other pages with all my other friends...I just had too much to say about Joey and I! lol)

 Interests and passions...

Meg's September Challenge..

...was to make a paper ruffle and use it on a layout...
so here it is.....

I really like the look of the paper ruffle...so...you'll probably see me using it again!!!

Can't wait...

to scrap this picture......
Larah loves purses...just like her mommy! She loves to carry them around and if the strap is long enough she puts it over her head  and carries it that way!!!!

I bought the perfect paper today at APOS!

So excited!!!

Cheryl  and Cori-Lyn... have been selected for the A PILE OF SCRAP! Inspiration team. I am really looking forward to all the great challenges they have for us and I can't wait to challenge all of you!!!!  Join us on the  forum APOS!

Isn't she adorable...I love that face!!!!! This was my first attempt at sewing on my layouts and LOVE it....my sewing machine isn't working so now everytime I scrapbook with my Mom I sew on my pages!

This is one of my favorite layouts...but I'm not sure why! maybe because I love this picture of him...he's being his silly self!!

Just thought I would post a few Layouts that I've done this summer...I haven't had a lot of time to scrap but did get a few done...enjoy!
