All alone!

My DH is at the Rasmussen house, helping Paul lay tiles on the front porch & my Max is at a play date.....so I am all alone in this big house & LONELY!!!!!! Should I scrap??? Naaah! Hmmm...maybe I can blog hop....or surf the net???? Nope!

The silence is so deafening I can't make up my mind what to do. I dunno, maybe I'll bake! That's it I'll bake...cupcakes.
My week has been frenetic with kids & people in & out but I did manage to scrap. I actually finished the Becky Higgins September sketch & mailed it off by the skin of my teeth.....my usual, I know......'the last minute thing'. We'll have to see if they like it & even if they don't, I won't mind because these sketches force me to work on double L.O's :o) Which are not my best!


This is a L.O I did a little while ago (Oops! bad photo of it tho'). I absolutely LOVED these in & out of focus shots I took of the kids playing with their toy train but I was determined not to use anything but off cuts & scraps to put the L.O together. This was the result!! Sweet, colorful & I didn't cut a single piece of paper to do it, LOL! Don't say it...I know...cheapskate!!!!

Anyhow you lovely lot, I better go & collect my child. Have a super-duper day. I'll blog again tomorrow.

  6. I think it is very clever to be able to use only odd bits, not cheapskate at all!

  8. Sounds to me like you need more time alone in the house. I can SOOO relate to not knowing what to do when the family is gone. LOL.

    Sounds to me like you are scrapping "Green". Wonderful results.
