Shoe Layout

My family thought I was crazy taking pictures of my feet and shoes! I thought it was a great idea....what do you think??? This layout shows a part of me and what I like. It also shows the trends of the times. When I am old and gray, I will appreciate seeing my 41 yr old feet......LOL. All of our pictures don't have to include our face.

The background paper and the large S is Basic Grey, the flower paper is Scenic Route, the flower is Heidi Swapp and the feet are a stamp.

ReOrganizing Scrapbook Room

I finally got the energy to tackle my office/scrapbook room. I went through a ton of stuff and cleaned out piles of mail, filing and other junk. Hubby painted some sturdy shelves white and hung them for me...he is the BEST!!! When I get everything on them and re-organized, I will take a picture to post but for now -- I had to post and show what I found at Michael's today!!! The colored tins were 50c each and the clear jars were $1 each. The Bling Bling basket was $5. This was all on clearance!!! Love pretty stuff to keep and show my scrapping stuff in!!! Isn't this stuff adorable??? OH and I am also posting these cool wire shelving unit that we hung yesterday.......it is not only efficient but looks great!!!!
Being Organized makes for better Scrapping!!!! Not really sure why my sidebar went to the bottom of the page - probably cause these pictures are bigger than normal.....I am sure it will go back to normal in October.

BUNCO NIGHT

I have never played the game BUNCO before but last night Christine (the owner of my LSS) asked me to be a fill in. I really didn't know anyone that was going to be there except for Christine but I figured I would give it a try. I got to her house around 6pm and got a quick lesson on the game. Everyone soon starting arriving and we had dinner. Everyone was very friendly and made me feel very welcome. We starting playing BUNCO after dinner and it was so much FUN!!! I loved the game...easy and fun. All of us woman chatted and joked around during the game which made it a very friendly and fun atmosphere. During half-time we celebrated someone's birthday and had cake. This group gives out prizes at the end and I won one. Everyone traded prizes for the ones they really wanted so I did the same because I really wanted this tiny desk plaque that said "Life's A Journey". I love that quote - and say you need to find the J O Y in the Journey. I put the plaque in my scrap room/office right away. The person who traded me was surprised I wanted the least expensive prize but it is the one I really wanted...LOL. I traded her with my prize of an embellished glass candy dish.

Christine is now starting a new BUNCO group.....a SCRAPPER'S BUNCO group. The prizes would be scrapbooking supplies. I am definitely joining this group. Not only will that be fun and scrapbook related but it felt good to get out and hang out with a bunch of girls for a change. Sometimes us Mom's don't do that too often and I think we need girl nights. NOT the girl nights we had when we were single ....LOL...but nice, clean fun girl nights like last night. I am glad I was asked to go last night and glad that I took a chance and went.
