Kits for Heartfelt

These are the last batch of kits I did for my favorite LSS Heartfelt Creations. These kits are geared to any level of scrapper and the costs are kept low. We usually try and use discontinued papers for these.







These first two are papers from BoBunny.















Original and the green & purple use We R Memory Keepers papers.





















Halloween kit is Reminisce.










Bug Hunt is Carol Wilson & Imaginesce.

This is a picture of me with my Grandma May taken on my first birthday. Family members have always told me that I am a lot like her. She was very creative and loved doing crafty things including handwork like crochet & embroidery. She died when I was eight and the few memories I have of her are very precious to me.

When I was younger everytime my Dad saw me crafting he would comment that I got that creativity from his mother. As I have gotten older I find myself thinking of her more often, and longing for a relationship that breast cancer stole from me.

This is the only picture of her with me that exists. This is why I scrapbook. I scrapbook in memory of a woman I barely remember to make sure that my grandchildren and their grandchildren can know me with all my quirks and faults. I want to make sure that they don't have this space in their heart. I want them to have books full of preserved memories.

I miss you!

Sleep Test ???


My hubby is such a cutie! He had the nurse at the sleep study place take his picture cause he knew I would want to scrap this crazy event. Can you imagine sleeping with all this crap stuck to and strapped on you?

It is always the little things that trigger memories. I had a wonderful childhood. In an era when most men didn't really have much to do with raising kids my Dad took an active roll in our lives. My Mom worked full time and still managed to make all of my clothes until I started junior high school. We were by no means wealthy, but I always knew that my parents loved me no matter what. I was raised to be self sufficient and to know how to take care of myself in a time when most girls were still raised to get married.
This fork came to me in a round about way, but every time I look at it I remember my childhood. This fork is the only piece left of the flatware that we used for every meal as far back as I can remember. I don't know how my mother managed to hold on to the same set for so many years, or why it makes such an impression on me - but here it is, the one thing that never fails to make me smile. I cherish these beloved memories.

The tags inside the pocket have different memories on them.

Got Milk?

Free Spirit

The minute I saw this line of paper and embellishments from Bo Bunny I knew it was the perfect match for these photos of Kiahana.
the only thing on this layout that is not BoBunny is the yellow button, fiber and the brads that came from my stash. I don't usually scrap this way, but the title labels were so perfect for the pictures!

Cole is toad-ally cool
