Hey Everyone! Hope you are having a great summer! For the wedding challenge at <a href="http://getpeachy.blogspot.com/">Chics Gettin Crafty</a>, I did a layout of my family during my sister's wedding in 2004. The day started out with a trip to the hair salon to get our hair done. The second picture is of my family after the wedding ceremony. The first picture on the bottom left is my sister and her husband at the gift opening the day after the wedding. The middle picture is of my parents dancing at the reception. Of course I had to include a picture of the cake, because my Mom made the beautiful cake!! It was a great day for a wedding!<br />

We either buy them their own 'doggie' ice cream or they eat the ice cream right off of our spoon. They also enjoy licking out the bowl! Thanks for looking!</div> <br />

</div> This layout is my anti-boredom layout. Now I know you are asking, how is this an anti boredom layout, but let me explain. My 2 dogs are always running around doing something entertaining or playing with each other. This is one of those moments when they were resting next to each other in the chair, looking so cute. So even when they are laying in the chair together, they always have a way of making your day brighter by the little looks that they give or the way that they lay next to each other, as they are doing in these pictures. I just have to look at them, and my day is lifted. Thanks for looking!<br />

This challenge was a lot of fun to do! I was able to use 7 of the recipe 'ingredients' on my layout. This is a picture taken in 2004, I believe, of my Mom, me, and my 2 sisters, Erin & Emily. We all bought identical purses with our initials on them. The 'ingredients' that I used are: ink, buttons, distressing (around the edges) a punch, flowers, ribbon, & fussy cutting (2 banners).<br />

It was one of the last day of the season! The berries were smaller this year because of all the rain we had this spring, but they still were good! I decided to make a strawberry pie, freezer jam, and strawberry shortcake! Everything tasted good!!!<br />

Riding season is right around the corner and boy I can't wait for warmer weather so Brad and I can ride again. So I've been scrapping a lot of riding pictures right now to get our Harley album caught up again. This is a picture of Brad walking down the lane at the campground in Tomahawk during the Fall Ride in September 2010. It was cool outside but a great day in Tomahawk riding and visiting with friends! <br />

<br />
<br />
For the smile challenge on <a href="http://getpeachy.blogspot.com/">Lets Get Peachy</a>, I scrapped a picture of my future mother in law, sister in law and I, getting ready for the first official ride of the 2010 riding season, which is the reason for the big smiles! The weather was perfect for a ride, hot, sunny, and a lot of Harleys! This is what the journaling said: "May, 29, 2010, was the first official ride of the season, which is why we are all smiling. It was a beautiful, hot, sunny day filled with a lot of Harleys! We were also riding to pay tribute to all Veterans who have served this country, so that we can be free!"Beckyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01647036552221233066noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6825796988967095840.post-44684766809145380022011-06-09T15:00:00.002-05:002011-06-09T18:28:05.840-05:00Lets Get Peachy SketchHere is my take on the <a href="http://i%20cant%20believe%20it,%20but%20tinker%20is%206%20years%20old%20today%20but%20she%20will%20always%20be%20my%20little%20puppy!%20%20%20it%20seem%20like%20we%20just%20got%20her%20yesterday.%20%20as%20always,%20we%20bought%20a%20little%20cupcake%20for%20the%20girls%20to%20eat.%20%20they%20enjoyed%20licking%20some%20of%20the%20frosting%20off%20the%20cupcake%20and%20then%20i%20cut%20up%20a%20little%20bit%20of%20the%20cupcake%20for%20them%20to%20eat.%20%20as%20you%20can%20see,%20they%20enjoyed%20it!/">Lets Get Peachy</a> June 9th Sketch <br />

She loved this toy so much and played with it a lot. This picture happens to be one of many where she was posing (by herself) with her 'Izzy.' The reason why the title is 'Tinker Toy' is because that's how we came up with her name. She was a small little pup when we first saw her, small like a toy, so she was named Tinker.<br />

It seem like we just got her yesterday. As always, we bought a little cupcake for the girls to eat. They enjoyed licking some of the frosting off the cupcake and then I cut up a little bit of the cupcake for them to eat. As you can see, they enjoyed it!<br />

Last year it was 94+ degrees for the ride, but this year, it was cold and rainy to start the day, but turned into a nice day. The ride started in Iron Mountain, MI and went to Powers, Carney, and ended in Florence WI, for a party at Northern Lites. Thought I would share a few pictures from the ride.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

This is a layout of my Grandpa Miller. It's one of my favorites because it shows my Grandpa sitting at his desk at work. This is one of the ways that I always remember him looking....in his dickie work clothes, hat, cigar and sitting at his desk in his office. The aqua adding machine was always fun to play with when we visited Grandpa at the 'shop' so I based my colored/pattern papers around that color. (the pattern paper is kind of hard to see. If you click on the picture, it should enlarge and you can see the patterned papers)<br />

<br />
We're celebrating National Scrapbooking Day at "<a href="http://getpeachy.blogspot.com/">Let's Get Peachy</a>"! To kick off our celebration of design team reveals, challenges and fun, our Peachy Kat's have created some special projects and posted them on our blogs. All of us are looking forward to your visit and hope that our projects both delight and inspire you!<br />
<br />
So for my National Scrapbooking Day project, I altered a candle. Stamping on candles is so easy to do and its such a nice touch to a gift! <br />
<br />
So lets get started! <br />

Wrap it around the candle and hold the wax paper on the back side. Make sure the waxy side is towards the candle!<br />

Moving quickly, wave it over the area where the stamped image is; be sure to keep the wax paper nice and tight. (Every candle has a different wax melting point, but you should see a change begin to take place within a few seconds) As the candle heats up, the pressure from the wax paper should push the image into the melting wax of the candle, embedding the image and leaving your image intact. If you need to do the backside, use a new piece of wax paper. Each piece can only be used once!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPOeJtF8K0IkrP5FH3KUYncQ_7kzgEZTS40cBvJXU-cKppvSLrkUlIE6CLj3-4IMiwfvnbgSEab_-kUB2BF38rioet8JgG1TLjaqAtx-8GuUtYzRDV0w3CM0uIMffVhbsZEMySDBLwmA/s1600/DSC04312.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="149" j8="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjPOeJtF8K0IkrP5FH3KUYncQ_7kzgEZTS40cBvJXU-cKppvSLrkUlIE6CLj3-4IMiwfvnbgSEab_-kUB2BF38rioet8JgG1TLjaqAtx-8GuUtYzRDV0w3CM0uIMffVhbsZEMySDBLwmA/s200/DSC04312.JPG" width="200" /></a></div><div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;">Slowly peel the wax paper away.

<br />
We celebrate this national holiday by scrapping today and into the weekend with projects that remind us of housework or getting away from it!!! Take the day off, put up your feet and let's hop!<br />
<br />
So in honor of this day, I made a 'No Housework' or 'Rainy Day' bank. I used a plastic container that I bought, which had nuts in it.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxdZMLb76bBgneTuOAU5Vk23z23Rjbt9DjwJJVveflvfsnsvWTOrjldzJoRSAGRqIK85tx71yWfYrgcpTT4uDEyGzqJkfdtt7xA9vEXrlRepbOY4-M8bTP8ACfF4ueOzDrC0fECiiPZQ/s1600/DSC04364.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="200" r6="true" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxdZMLb76bBgneTuOAU5Vk23z23Rjbt9DjwJJVveflvfsnsvWTOrjldzJoRSAGRqIK85tx71yWfYrgcpTT4uDEyGzqJkfdtt7xA9vEXrlRepbOY4-M8bTP8ACfF4ueOzDrC0fECiiPZQ/s200/DSC04364.JPG" width="179" /></a></div><blockquote></blockquote>I then decided what papers and embellishments I wanted to use to decorate the outside of the container.<br />

We woke up to 18+ inches of snow!! Here are just a few pictures from around the apartment. The first one is the view out the front door. As you can see, there was no way out that door for awhile. Look at all the snow!! Its almost as high as the mailboxes!! I like snow, but not this much!Beckyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01647036552221233066noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6825796988967095840.post-5843231660949559032011-01-02T19:54:00.004-06:002011-01-02T20:05:45.183-06:00Christmas giftsNow that Christmas is over, I can share some of the things that I made as gifts for my family. I made a knitting and crochet needle case for my Mom and 2 sisters, Erin & Emily. I think it turned out great. The fabric is from Debbie Mumm's cat collection and is so fitting for the needle case! The yarn balls are just the right colors (most of my favorites!). The case folds in half and rolls up to hold all the needles so they don't fall out. I also made myself one, which I think they all turned out great since I haven't sewn anything in years!! <br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheVAFPQyjMgEdHuuF6loM_NvDz-dpzBWmlsrbXOb2VPRBto9fzyiZeGfKr1Nh_KwLNbnmzvceqxxkTYemPWP2MThO79dV5N-a08GqS34V4Yxf9emez_BCqL8C3uoFlhymClatZoISTiA/s1600/DSC04133.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 274px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheVAFPQyjMgEdHuuF6loM_NvDz-dpzBWmlsrbXOb2VPRBto9fzyiZeGfKr1Nh_KwLNbnmzvceqxxkTYemPWP2MThO79dV5N-a08GqS34V4Yxf9emez_BCqL8C3uoFlhymClatZoISTiA/s320/DSC04133.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5557774869629607634" /></a><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXw0MpdL8EkZTRD7pLYinI8Jdx-aEmACjAYKAk_GjOCmOSpJuaPbFI5JWLfGOtaGQ0lJoP2vzrGE-_HprgEukydC63eswGnQUV2705uZNUF_28dldeIVbpG-I9igDFnq2RceBJ6rN3gQ/s1600/DSC04132.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 298px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgXw0MpdL8EkZTRD7pLYinI8Jdx-aEmACjAYKAk_GjOCmOSpJuaPbFI5JWLfGOtaGQ0lJoP2vzrGE-_HprgEukydC63eswGnQUV2705uZNUF_28dldeIVbpG-I9igDFnq2RceBJ6rN3gQ/s320/DSC04132.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5557774870271907250" /></a>Beckyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01647036552221233066noreply@blogger.com0
