Happy Valentine's Day

 Happy Valentine's Day.

I have been busy making a banner for each grandchild. I usually tape things to their doors to surprise them when they wake up. There is also a little gift bag of goodies. 

I have continued scrapping some of their adventures. I used this sketch from A Cherry on Top

the rest of us. 

Last year we all participated in the Phoenix zoo 5K. We decided to complete it again this year. My grandson and his mom ran quite a bit. I did a very fast walk. My granddaughter, her dad and grandpa did a more leisurely walk. They probably enjoyed the zoo and zoo lights the most.

I also painted each of them a valentine.

Wishing you all a day filled with love. Thank you for visiting and for your kind words.

New Year, New Layouts!

 I am making a promise to share more this year. Let's inspire each other and create together.

I am sharing two layouts that I created for challenges over at A Cherry on Top. 

The first is a sketch challenge 

Here is my layout

We are out west at our condo and I have limited supplies. I made this work by fussy cutting leaves and  using wood cactus shapes. 

The second layout is for the monthly music challenge. The grandkids are 6 and 8 and for the past month their favorite song has been Put Some Miles on It. I combined that with recent bike riding photos. 

Sometimes, I don't know where to start with a scrapbook layout. These challenges provide me with Thank you for stopping by. I appreciate your kind words. 

I hope you visit A Cherry on Top and check out the cahllenges.
