Scrapbook Room

  I have recently joined a group on fb called Scrapbook Rooms. I love seeing how others organize their rooms. I get a ton of inspiration. Right now I am moving my scrap area from downstairs to main level in a small walk through area. Even though it is alot smaller I'm gonna love it. I have a window and better yet I am hoping I will be able to get a lot more scrapping done. My basement is unfinished,cold,dirty, and buggy. Plus I could only scrap at night when my littlest one was sleeping. I didn't want to bring him downstairs to play. But now on the main level I can steal small moments through out the day as well as while he is napping I wont be all the way downstairs. I didn't take any before or old scrap area pics but I will post after. Right now I am working on organizing. I have soooo much stuff! The sad part is I love it all! I am quite the Paper Ho too lol! I saw a ribbon organizing technique that I want to try. You wrap the ribbon around clothes pins and store them in a jar. Looks pretty and functional too. But I am having trouble finding the old fashioned wood pins. I have only been able to look in 2 places but all they had was the plastic spring kind. Bummer! I have all my house work so I hope to be able to work on the area on Sat. Sunday I have a baby shower to go to of a very dear friend. But I next week I hope to be using my area! I will post pics when I am done.

Scrapbooking back in the day...

Just thought I would post some of my first ever pages from 2006. My daughter was old enough to go trick or treating to family and friends. Ive come a long way baby. Hope to add one of those scrolling picture things with my newer stuff :)

Hi there my fellow scrappers and bloggers. This is my first page im posting. I don't get much time to scrap with 4 kids around plus all the daily stuff around the house that needs to be taken care of. So when I do I love it. I get lost in all my papers,photos,ribbons,and other embellies.But I am definately a paper ho! It is all "ME" time. I am going to try and set a goal of one scrapbook page a week. I really want to stick to this....if I do more awsome! Maybe more once I get my scrap area organized working on that now :) I love looking at all the other works people post...you ladies are an inspiration to me. I did this page for a challange in another group. This is a photo of two of my boys. I just loved the out fit D. had on.

Katy Perry - Firework

Brighter than the Moon

Hello all...First I wanted to explain my title.The reason I choose this as the title of my blog because it is from my all time favorite Katy Perry song...Fireworks! Everytime I hear this song emotions well up inside me. I ussually get teary eyed. I want my kids to know they are my fireworks...they light up my life! One of my favorite lines...your even brighter than the moon moon moon...

Firework

Do you ever feel like a plastic bag
Drifting throught the wind
Wanting to start again

Do you ever feel, feel so paper thin
Like a house of cards
One blow from caving in

Do you ever feel already buried deep
Six feet under scream
But no one seems to hear a thing

Do you know that there's still a chance for you
Cause there's a spark in you

You just gotta ignite the light
And let it shine
Just own the night
Like the Fourth of July

Cause baby you're a firework
Come on show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y

Baby you're a firework
Come on let your colors burst
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
You're gunna leave 'em fallin' down-own-own

You don't have to feel like a waste of space
You're original, cannot be replaced
If you only knew what the future holds
After a hurricane comes a rainbow

Maybe you're reason why all the doors are closed
So you could open one that leads you to the perfect road
Like a lightning bolt, your heart will blow
And when it's time, you'll know

You just gotta ignite the light
And let it shine
Just own the night
Like the Fourth of July

Cause baby you're a firework
Come on show 'em what you're worth
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y

Baby you're a firework
Come on let your colors burst
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
You're gonna leave 'em all in awe-awe-awe"


Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
It's always been inside of you, you, you
And now it's time to let it through

Cause baby you're a firework
Come on show 'em what your worth
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
As you shoot across the sky-y-y

Baby you're a firework
Come on slet your colors burst
Make 'em go "Oh, oh, oh!"
You're gonna leave 'em all in awe-awe-awe

Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
Boom, boom, boom
Even brighter than the moon, moon, moon
