I love Scrap4Life Cyber Crops! If you haven't done one, join us this weekend!!! This weekend's crop will be hosted by S4L DT Member, Karen Reichel! Can't wait to see what she has planned for us!!!

Now on to some scrappy news, again the card making bug has hit me! LOL! I go through phases! I still had some October Afternoon scraps leftover and was able to get three more cards out of them!! Talk about using every inch of paper, huh?!

And, I finally cut into my March Kit from Scrap4Life! I love these Sassafras papers!! I was kind of intimidated by them at first but ending up loving them! If you haven't picked up your kit yet, hurry on over to the S4L Shoppe, they are going fast!

Here's Jeremy when he was about 9 months old! I just love that look!! Melts my heart every time! Why do they have to grow up?! Waaaaaaah!!

CRAZY BUSY WEEK!!

It's been a crazy around!! Carlos had been working tons of hours and that has kept me very busy around here with the kiddos! But he took Friday off and I treated myself to a much needed massage, pedicure and manicure!!! It was heaven!!!

However, I did manage to sneak away into my scrap room after the kiddies fell asleep and get a bit of scrappin' done!! Woohoo!!

This first page I did for the Scrap4Life March "Sketch" Challenge hosted by Carla. This is Daniel during last year's spring baseball. He loves his baseball!! I think he can tell you every MBL player out there! hehe! For this layout, I used some October Afternoon papers I had left over from my Simply Obsessed's October Kit. I love these papers!!

Supplies Used: Bazzill Cardstock, October Afternoon Patterned Paper, Sassafrass Lass buttons, Other Misc. Buttons, Scenic Route Letter Stickers, Stampin' Up Ink (Classic Black), White Unibal Pen, Black Zig Writer

Because I loved these papers so much, I decided to make some cards with my scraps!!! This first one was a lift from a card I saw in the recent issue of Card Creations Magazine. I love this magazine. The ideas are very simple and easy!! Just what I need! LOL!

Unfortunately, I haven't gotten much scrappin' done at all!! My husband has been working lots of hours so it's been me and 4 kids all week and this weekend. I am in desperate need of some "ME" time!! However, I did sneak in this layout and card last night after all the kiddies went to bed.

This is Jeremy when he was first learning how to stand on his own. The title is in spanish..."Solito"

Toothless!

Look who lost her first tooth!!! And she is soooooo excited about it, too!!! Congratulations, Sweetie!

And now on to some scrappy stuff...yesterday I made 4 cards using some leftover Cosmo Cricket (Hello Sunshine) papers! I love these papers and wanted to use every single bit of it up!!!

"You Light Up My World"

"Enjoy"

"Hello Sunshine"

"Hey Beautiful"

In addition to my cards, I also worked on another page of "My Prayers for You" book that I am working on as part of Faith Sisters' My Prayers for You challenge! Go check it out! For Week 2, our prayer focused on "protecting" our children. Like Michelle says in her devotion...unfortunately, we can't be everywhere that our children are all the time. But God can!! We can't see everything that they see, or hear everything that they hear. But God Can!!! We can't possibly know all of the evil lurking to lure them in. But Got does!! He can and will protect them! This week's verse and prayer is as follows:

Scripture: No weapon formed against you shall prosper, and every tongue which rises against you in judgement, you shall condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is from Me, says the Lord. ~Isaiah 54:17

Prayer: Father, please hide my children from any kind of evil influences that would come against them. Keep them safe from any kind of hidden dangers and let no weapons formed against them be able to prosper. Thank you Lord, for Your many promises of protection. Help in the obedience of Your Will so that they never come out from Your umbrella of protection wherever they go. In Jesus name I pray, Amen.

The prayer is from Stormie Omartian's book "The Power of a Praying Parent", which I am also reading. It's an excellent book and highly recommended! And here is my page for Week 2:

God Bless each and every one of you!
