I've been scrappin'

So I thought I should share some stuff with you.
I received my first box of My Little Shoebox goodies this week & I couldn't wait to dig in!
I am not exaggerating when I say that my husband has been a yard-working fool this summer.
I don't know where his fascination with the yard came from but I am lovin' it!
This flower box was a little weekend project for him & it looks really great in our backyard!
I made this little pocket of tags (there are Bible verses on the tags) for a sweet friend.
This next one is just a little one about myself.
If you look closely, you can see a line of journaling that reads, "I am not a good cook."
I am not lying about that.
I have even done an entire layout about my lack of cooking skills that lists a bunch of kitchen mishaps I have had.
I have a new one to add.
I made some muffins this afternoon when I got home from work.
Now you ask, "What kind of muffins did you make?"
Well, just muffins.
You ask again, "No, like what flavor of muffins?"
Laughing, I have to tell you that they are just "muffins" because I forgot to add the blueberries.
And what is probably even worse is that I didn't even realize what I had done until after I had eaten about 1/2 a muffin!
Wow!
**LAYOUT REMOVED FOR PUBLICATION...BE BACK SOON**
Have a great weekend friends!

LOVE the layouts - the little tags are really cute! There's a trick to making muffins - you just buy the mix where you add some water - and there's no way you can leave anything out. :)
