There's been too much talking...

...on this blog lately and not enough scrapping!
Since we were actually in town for a weekend, I got to make some stuff.
{my hands had been itching to do something crafty!}
So little talking and more scrapping on this post!__________________________________________________
I submitted this one for the Make it Yours challenge for the July/August issue of BHG.
{the challenge doesn't close until the 21st so you can make one too}
I was inspired by the layout by Shannon Zickel.

Supplies: Patterned paper (My Minds Eye), Lace cardstock (KI Memories), Brads (KI Memories), Alphabet stickers (KI Memories), Chipboard border ( My Minds Eye), Pen (American Crafts)
And I probably just jinxed them!

Supplies: Patterned paper, chipboard letters, die cuts (My Little Shoebox "Little Lady" line)

This is brother David on his birthday at the fancy-schmancy restaurant we ate at in New Orleans.
Supplies: Patterned paper, alphabet stickers, die cut (My Little Shoebox "Little Lady" line), Cardstock (Prism)

And to prove that I am obsessed with this piece of brown polka-dotted paper, here is a card.

Supplies: Patterned paper, chipboard letters, die cut, word stickers (My Little Shoebox "Little Lady" line), Bling (Heidi Swapp for Advantus)

Now that I have gotten my crafty fix, my weekend is complete.
