First Page with Melanie Ann's Chocoberry Creme

Yeah I am finally done my first layout for Melanie Ann's Designs woohooo!
I was half way done and Photoshop got a lil stuck and I had to shut it down so I had to start ALL OVER again that sucked but I finally got it finished and I just love it. My pics are all on my old puter so I had to go on Facebook and swipe some pics from my sisters hehe...not like thats a first lol It turned out so pretty I just love the colors in this kit and that zipper hehe Had to use it twice I loved it soo much haha I put in "Mom would be so proud!" because I know she would be knowing her 2 girls are both goin to school. One in Travel and one in Early Childhood Education. I know I am so proud of them and miss them soooo much.

Well I thought I would come to post this and then go posting it on galleries. The nurse said the test results were in on my Biopsy and the doc would call me back around 1 so I am a lil bit nervous. But at least I know I will find out today and no more waiting so I am happy about that!
Anyways Happy Scrappin Everyone! I'm off for now!

Ok so I'm back again!

Well I was all set to get off here when I checked my other email and found this waiting for me! Thank you so much Maggie I love it and am so glad you liked workin with it. This is so exciting seeing these layouts with my kit hehe

Still awake!!

Ok so I'm still awake and Hailey is fast asleep in her bassinet!! So why am i still awake you ask??? HAHA Well I got picked to be on Melanie Chynoweth's CT. I am so excited. So I am raring to go trying to figure out how to add my blinkie hehe Well I was successful at gettin it on my blog now if I could just get it in my signature hehe that would be great but I guess I did good for it being 5:40 in the morn!! Let's see if I can post it here now to share...



On a new note this new puter is awesome I am soo happy to have windows xp again and Photoshop is fun to learn it will deffinately be a challenge i will gladby be up for. But I have noticed something very disturbing...LMAO...All my pics look different on this monitor HAHA
Long story short Aly was messin with the buttons on the monitor a while back and when I caught her well needless to say the screen was all messed up and we just couldn't figure out for the life of us what she pressed. Wellll so all this time we been workin with a messed up screen and the windows would go off the side and was all warped haha. Well now I look at my pages and they all look kinda squished so I am kinda a lil dissapointed and wondering if they look alright to everyone out there lol or is it just me not used to this screen yet haha. I usually scrap in 8x10 so I can eventually print some and get them framed, but now they look all squished lol so I'm hopin to GAWWD that it is just my eyes not used to the "normal" monitor haha
Oh well what can ya do!!
A funny story well not so funny when Joel brought the computer home I was all excited tryin to hook it up so we could check it out...wellll it wouldnt turn on. We couldn't find the button other then the one at the back to turn it on so we searched and searched. haha Turns out it was on the side. Soooo after all that we pressed the button and NOTHING! By that time I was getttin so frustrated and worried that it wasn't goin to work we tried it in 4 different outlets to see haha. Then I remembered that I had to unwrap the cord and it was brand new so his friend must have used another one when he built the computer so we tried to use our plug from our old computer and sure enough lol it worked. We were sooo happy and relieved buttt now we can't use our old puter. So thats not so funny cuz ALL my scrapbooking stuff is on there...CRIESS!!! Hopefully we can get a new one soon and a new keyboard and mouse lol

Ok I think I am done babbling now and Austin is up and hungry LOl a typical lil boy for ya
I posted some of Melanie's kits that I just can't wait to get my hands on hehe

I love the zipper on this one and that heart with the beads on it its soo cute I love the colors pink and brown together!

This one it's the frames that I absolutely can't wait to use and those big stitches so fun and the colors are great too!The DOODLE flower in this is my fav woohoo I just love doodles hehe


Again the frames are awesome and that metal swirly woohoo I have ideas to use this one for my lil precious Hailey heheAgain DOODLES hehe this ones awesome more my lil Alys speed here It's gonna be so cool to work with these kits and I just can't wait you should check out her design's here

Ok I am off for the rest of the day...I think lol Happy Scrappin everyone and have a GREAT weekend!!

What in the world was I thinkin when I made that I dunno haha Aly decided to get up last night at 1 and then Haiely was still up until 2:30 it was a crazy crazy night so can ya say NAPPPPP TIME when I get back home LOL
Anyways I just wanted to share a challenge that I am deffinately goin to fit in some time for this week even if I don't make the deadline I still want to do it. It's about Cancer awareness month so it's one that will be special to me and I am sure there will be some crying to go along with it
You can find it here on the FPD blog. They have a few pink freebies as well but I don't have time to wait for this slow puter to load them lol So be sure to check them out.
Anyways gotta run hope you all have a great day and Happy Scrappin!!

Waiting is hard!

I decided to post a preview of the colors to my Halloween kit for Nov. I am goin to have it ready and up for Nov 1st just in time to scrap all those Halloween pics. In between that I am workin on the website and some other kits I will have coming soon yeahh! This is fun I wish I would have found this wonderful hobby sooner LOL

Here are the colors...it is turning out to be a very fun kit and can't wait to have it finished.

As for my 1st kit I am surprised at all the downloads. I am glad ppl like it and hope to see some layouts using it. It would be fun to see what ya can come up with using it.
I am goin to be offline all day today and tomorrow as I am waiting to hear back from my Doctor about a biopsy that was done last week so i am a little bit afraid and tryin to keep my mind off of that part of my day! It's kinda scary seeing as how my mom died from Cancer. Watchin her go through what she did was the hardest thing I will ever have to go through in my life I think.
On to a better topic I might be gettin my new puter as soon as tomorrow. I sooooo can't wait! This old puter is soooooo slow it's not even funny. Anyways gonna check my email and sign off for the day and happy Scrappin Everyone!!

Oh Canada!!! I miss HOME!

Wow Andrea has done it yet AGAIN! This one is makin me just a lil' home sick tho. I miss Canada and my family so much. Great job again. I think this is a favorite yet, until next kit she does then that one will be my fav EH? haha



As for my next kit I have started it already and I am so happy with it and can't wait to post it. I am workin on it and my website tho so I am not goin to rush it. It is a Halloween kit and I promise it will be ready just in time to scrap those fun spooky pictures!
On an exciting note. I AM GETTING A NEW PUTER. YEAHHHHHHHHH!
I am so excited I acn't wait. The week is going by as slow as possible tho it seems. I should have it by beginning of next week. I will have windows XP again, OH how I have missed that LOL
Windows 98 just isn't cuttin it! I am so glad cuz it's wayyy faster than this one and will make designing so much more fun hehe. Anyways I guess I better to get supper ready and get off this computer.

Happy Scrappin Everyone!

It's here!! I'm finally done!!

Ok I finally got my freebie done and I am soo happy. It turned out pretty good I think anyways LOL I hope everyone else is as happy as I am too!

I will even put it on my blog for everyone to see.

Some of my Fav Pages!

I found another designer that is looking for a CT Member and decided to give it another try and apply and here are some of my fav pages i have posted.
The first 2 pages are 2 of my favs.

This one because of a friend who
called me a scrapbooking machine.
I thought it was funny at first but
then got the idea for this page. It
was fun to make a page containing
some of my pages inside of a page.
It's nice to know that ppl like to
look at my work. And I always
enjoy hearing ppl's comments
of course.

This one is one of my most favorites
of all I have done just because I
challenged myself to try something
different and it turned out even
better then I imagined and on the
first try. I enjoy working with layers
and blending the pictures together
to make a great page to look back at
and remember and this one is going
to be framed for my wall...hehe






I tried to just pic a few and this is what I ended up with...LOL I just absolutely love scrappin and the memories it creates other than just plain pictures. It's great and I am so glad I stumbled on this LIL' Hobby. I'm sure my kids will thank me later on to have all these great pages to look back on...

Anyways thats all for me today my hubby is sick today and I have a doctors apt tomorrow so I won't be on much in the next few days. Happy scrappin everyone and I am soo happy at the turnout of my freebie templates. To all of you who downloaded them I would love to see what ya can do with them. Maybe I will make a special freebie just for those who send me a link or an email with their page.
My email is: jessie_lee55@hotmail.com
How about this if I get 10 ppl that send me a page, I will make a special surprise freebie and give it to the first 10 and I will post your pages on my blog. Happy scrappinand look forward to hearing from you!

SMILES!!!!!!!!! And a freebie I want!!

Ok I have been tryin to catch this beatiful face on camera for a couple of days...

My HAILEY is smiling!! Wohoooo She's such a cutie pie. Now if this isn't a reason to get out the scrapbook kits...I don't know what would be!!


Here is a kit I want but have to wait to dl till we get high speed...which is ordered YEAH!! It's not really high speed but it's higher then I have now and it's through cable so I won't be hoggin the phone line hehe which I tend to do a LOT!! Ok be sure to check it out. You have to register but it's the free kit for October and I just love all the pinks.


Happy Scrappin Everyone I know I will be happy scrappin my babygirls first smile on camera hehe.

Page and Preview!!!

So I got distracted AGAIN! That seems to happen alot with me...hehe.
I decided to use Andrea's new kit for a page. it turned out pretty good if I do say so myself.
As I said before I just love the colors of this kit thanks again Andrea for sharing!
I had to recolor some swirls black just cuz it's an addiction with me I love black/white swirls and doodles in my pages LOL


Now onto some very exciting news for me!! I am starting my very first FREEBIE KIT.....YaHooooooo lol. Can ya tell I am just a lil excited? I was sittin down feeding Hailey and watchin Alyssa play and I just got a theme pop into my head by something she was wearing HAHA And then I got another idea by one of Haileys outfits. I am gona be busy for the next few days LOL Anyways I am off to clean up a lil before Austin gets home from school so we can make his page. I LOVE that I can share my love or more like ADDICTION with him LOL


Happy Scrappin Everyone!!

Buttermilk Buddy!

Woohoo! I love this page! I got a lil sidetracked on my search for a digi-dare to do LOL
I found this pic and got an idea and here it is. Alyssa just loves her buttermilk. Austin and I don't like it at all....EWWW. But Daddy is super happy that he now has a reason to buy it cuz it's..."for Alyssa" HAHA
I used retrodiva's Autumn kit for this page ...have I said I just love her stuff before?? LOL

Ok I'm off to make another page while Aly is sleepin Yeah! I'm on a roll.

Another great kit!

I have another great kit from Andrea. I just love the colors in this one!! I know I said that to her last one but I am such a girly girl and love scrappin with lots of colors for my girls and this one is my kind of kit! GREAT job Andrea!



I actually got a lil over 5 hours of sleep last night yeahhhh! Hailey finally went to sleep around 12:30 and then I had to get up at 6 of course to get the boys ready to leave for the day. I was so happy she was still asleep, if only that could happen every night hehe.
I had so much fun doin the digi-dare yesterday that I am now on a search for another dare to do from their dares in the past LOL. It was fun to go and see everyone elses entry for this dare. I just love to see what ppl come up with and get ideas for my own pages. I am in a scrappy mood this morn after some sleep so I am not gonna hunt for freebies instead work on a page of my own woohoo! I will come back later to post when I am done and when Austin gets home from school I promised him we would make a page together with the soccer kit I posted the other day LOL He's all excited I have created a lil scrappin monster. He loves to scrap but I am always hoggin the computer I have to learn to share...BAD Mommy HAHA
Sooo I will post it too later, he's actually a good lil srapper LOL
I will share the first page he did with ya. He did everything...well...He told me what he wanted where he wanted it and i did the work but it was all his idea and I thought it was a pretty good page for a 10 year old boy LOL


Ok so I'm off to scrap! Happy Scrappin everyone!

I did the digi-dare! Finally!

I had a blast doin this page even though it took all day to finish! I almost cried at one point...LITERALLY!!! PSP had an error and had to shut down! I almost lost it then I remembered I had just saved it and was soooo happy. I was soo lucky this time cuz after about 70 layers I don't know that I could have done it all over again the same!! Anyways!!
It's done for a dare. I found the site a while back but haven't had time to finish a page and today I finally sat down and made myself finish. Here is the dare...

I applied to be a CT for retrodiva cuz I just love her designs so much. Well I didn't get chosen which made me a lil sad, but she gave out the ppl who applied a $10 coupon to her store and I forgot all about my sadness hehe.
