February is Love Month at ScrapMuse

When you think of February you think of LOVE! At ScrapMuse we are going to dedicate the month of February to spreading the love. "Spread the Love" will be a month long contest held on the ScrapMuse message board. We are going to spend the first 5 days of February getting everything ready for you. You will have the rest of the month to earn points by spreading the love about Scrapmuse, participating in weekly challenges, joining our Blog Hop, and posting on the message board. Since the contest is all about love.....there will also be random "love" points handed out! You will find a complete list of rules and ways to earn points on February 5th in the "Spread the Love" section of the message board. The grand prize for the scrapper with the most "love" at the end of the month will be a Brand New March 2010 Mega Muse and a July 2009 Mega Muse. We will also select a second place winner from a random drawing who will win a March, 2010 Mini Muse.

A Scrappy Saturday

I had a scrappy day with the LB Scrapaholics last Saturday to celebrate Rita's birthday. We met up at 2 pm and called it a night by 10 pm. I'm so happy I finished 4 layouts! I planned on finishing 5 but eating and talking got in the way. LOL! Here are my finished projects...







This one is for the sketch challenge at Design Dollies!










It feels great to have these photos scrapped! Have a great week ahead!

Feeling Blue

I've been following the challenges at Design Dollies, a blog I discovered through my ScrapMuse co-DT Kristy. Here's one I made for their monochromatic blue challenge for this week. Having 2 daughters, I rarely use the color blue for layouts so this was really fun to do.
