Goals
I am not one to make New Year's Resolution's. But I am setting a few goals.
1. Keep learning about photography. I am starting this by taking a workshop this month from Brooke Snow.
2. Have fun with Photography. I am joinng a 52 Wednesday's photography group. We will have weekly photography themes. I think this will be a lot of fun and give me a chance to think outside the box.
3. Scrap for fun again. After my tern with Core'dinations ended I just really hit a slump that I could not get myself out of. I plan on finding the joy of memory keeping again.
4. simplify. We have to much stuff and too little space. I need to make some changes.
5. Have a baby :) We are expecting a new wee one in August!!!
Do you have any goals set for 2012?

Happy 2012!!!
Wow. I can't believe another year has gone by. Do you know what that means? Time for One Little Word! I thought I had my word all picked out. It was a great word. Then I went over to Ali's blog to see the annual list of words people have chosen. I feel like a cheated a bit, but her word really caught me. Up.
It's says so much about what I want to accomplish this year.
First is that sometimes in my daily parenting struggles, just those little day to day things, I try and do it all by myself. Forgetting to call upon the Lord for his help and wisdom.
Psa 121:1 A Song of Ascents. I will lift up my eyes to the mountains ; From where shall my help come.
second, to pick myself up when I fail and just keep pressing on. Failing at something just gives me an opportunity to try harder or move on.
Third to keep my creativity up. In my photography business and in my crafting.
So now I am off to buy a Necklace from Lisa.
I hope this year you are blessed!

Wow
It has been so long since I have submitted a layout for magazine publication. Imagine my surprise and pleasure to receive an email from my favorite craft magazine "Mollie Makes". Saying that they were publishing a layout of mine that had previously appeared in another publication. I can't wait to see it!

Picture share
I had a family shoot one day and took one of my daughters with me to help out. Before the family arrived I took a few quick pictures of my daughter. I can't believe how grown up she has become. Crazy scary how fast they grow up.

time flies
Ugh, again I have let so much ime pass since updating my blog. I have just been enjoying the beautiful weather here in the south. One of our parks here was remodeled and we have been trying to hit it once a week. In fact I think we may go again today. After 2 days of rain, my kids are so full of energy from being cooped up!. I have been doing a little scrapping too. Not as much as I would like. but some. Here are a few recents.
These all used the add on kit from 3 Scrappy Boys.
I will try to be better about keeping this thing updated!

It's DT call again!
Here's the details:
3 Scrappy Boys is taking applications for several positions (international applicants welcome) on our Design Team.
Design Team Requirements:
• 3SBDT members will receive one free kit every other month and will use the kit for designing layouts, cards, projects etc. On the month the 3SB DT member receives their kit, a minimum of 3 layouts must be submitted and 1 card, or comparable projects must be uploaded to the appropriate place in the gallery. The kit should be used to its fullest extent.
• 3SBDT members will contribute to a monthly newsletter. Members will rotate assignments which will include but not be limited to technique articles, product spotlights, seasonal and holiday ideas, altered project ideas, etc. Those members that are not on “kit cycle” may also contribute to the newsletter as they are able.
• 3SBDT members will maintain a daily presence on the message board(at least 5 posts a day, 3 new posts) and gallery. This includes initiating discussions, responding in discussions, leaving gallery feedback and uploading non-DT work to the member’s own gallery.
• 3SBDT members will be required to participate in a maximum of 2 large online crop (1 per quarter) during their term. Depending on the work required for the crop, extra compensation may be given.
• 3SBDT members will be required to post 1 kit challenge on their assigned month.
• 3SBDT members will be required to lead various other small challenges and contests (i.e. layouts of the day, mini stash challenges, etc)
• 3SBDT members will promote 3SB on Willow Traders, Kit Peas and other message boards that are not in direct competition with 3 SB. 3SBDT will also be required to post to both the 3SB blog and facebook page.
• 3SBDT members may be on other DTs but may not promote the companies they work for on the 3 SB forums unless the other company is a manufacturer or other business not in direct competition with 3 SB.
• 3SBDT members are asked to post kit reveals and peaks of their DT work with 3SB kits on their blogs.
• 3SBDT members will be asked to create a step by step/class once per term.
• 3SB is looking to start teaching online classes and DT members will be asked to contribute to these classes.
Design Team members will be on a probationary period for 3 months. At the end of the 3 months, assuming there are no issues with team participation (this means maintaining a presence on the boards, facebook, and blog as well as completing assignments on time), they will continue to complete the 6 month term. If significant problems occur during the probationary time, they will be asked to step down.
Design team members receive a 25% discount on store and kit orders.
To apply, please send the following to heather@3scrappyboys.com :
o 5-7 examples of your work including layouts, cards and altered projects
o a list of other design teams you are currently on and have been on in the past. Include the dates you have been involved with other design teams. An email address for a contact person (i.e team leader, business owner, etc) is strongly encouraged.
o links to any of your online galleries
Application deadline is October 6th. New members will be notified privately approximately October 9th and will be announced publicly shortly thereafter. New team members will begin their assignment with the November 2011 kits.
It is not a requirement that you use a 3 Scrappy Boys kit, however, it is easier to judge talent and ability to use a kit to its full extent, if a kit is used. For that reason, all 3 Scrappy Boys kits are currently on sale to enable applicants to purchase a kit for use. Shipping is within 24 hours except on weekends and postal holidays.
We would love to have you on the team, so apply :)

.Wow
It has been so long since I have posted. I guess I haven't had anything to say. I would love to say that it is because we have been so busy doing wonderful things but we really haven't done much this summer. Just feeling sort of blah. But I have done a little scrapping this week. I can share one for now.
Used the 3 Scrappyboy September trio:

Layout share
I forgot to share this layout I did using the March Trio form 3 Scrappy Boys. It uses the beautiful Twig line from LYB. I added in Core'dinations Cardstock from my stash.
This was last summer and I can't believe how much my little girl has changed!
