Studio J Wednesday -- Family Time in Utah

Today's layout features pictures from a trip to Utah several years ago.  The kids loved playing with their cousins and wrestling in the living room.  So nice to have these memories documented.
I hope you all enjoy your Wednesday.  Can you believe it's the last day of November already?  WOW!

Studio J Wednesday -- First Day of School 2011

This layout is a little more current and features pictures from the first day of school this year.  I love this Typeset paper from CTMH.
We are in Utah now, spending Thanksgiving with Devin's family and will then head up to Idaho for my brother's wedding on Saturday.  I hope you have a most wonderful Thanksgiving holiday, to my friends in the US.

Christmas Card Challenges #51

Welcome.  My card today is for this week's challenge at Christmas Card Challenges which is to use black and white.  Kind of fun, don't you think?  Remember, though, that the only real rule to play along is that you make a holiday or Christmas card.

Not a lot going on with my card, just a fun music background and a black felt tree.

Well, I hope you'll check out the challenge blog to see what the other designers have for you.  And then, come and play with us.

Studio J Wednesday -- A trip to Elitches

My Studio J layout today is from a trip we took to an amusement park clear back in 2005.  Both the kids look so little.  Hard to believe this was more than 6 years ago. 

That's all I have for you today.  Thanks for your visit.

Christmas Card Challenges #50

This week at Christmas Card Challenges, the optional challenge is to use wreaths or holly on your Christmas or holiday card. I've had this great embossing folder in my stash for awhile now and it was great to use it.

My card is definitely very CAS but I absolutely adore it. If I had procrastinated this year and hadn't been making unique Christmas cards every week, it would be one I would mass produce. Lucky for me, I don't have to mass produce as my Christmas cards are almost all done to start sending out in just a couple of weeks!

As always, I so appreciate you stopping by and for the love you leave.

This layout spread features pictures taken from a trip to Utah many years ago.  We were able to see both of my grandpas and my Aunt Carla.  It's nice to have these memories documented in pictures and a scrapbook.
I hope you are having a wonderful week.  Hugs to you all!

Studio J featuring Joe Mamma

Happy Wednesday to you all.  My Studio J layout for this week features pictures of our adorable cat, Joe Mamma.  These pictures are a few years old.  We got Joe Mamma just over 7 years ago when she was 2 months old.  She's been a good cat and love her.
As always, thanks for taking time out of your day to stop by and say hi.  Blessings!
