My Scrap Bliss: Can You Believe It?
http://myscrapbliss.blogspot.com/2014/06/can-you-believe-it.html
Thursday, June 12, 2014. Can You Believe It? I didn't post on this blog for over a year and now I have posted two days in a row! What can I say? I got hooked on challenges this week. That might just be the ticket to getting me back into the papercrafting world. I started with the challenges over at Scrappin' Mojo. Those gals can always inspire me. Then I came across this sketch over at Freshly Made Sketches. I have bookmarked the Freshly Made website and you will also find a link in the sidebar. I wi...

My Scrap Bliss: I Wanna Scrap!
http://myscrapbliss.blogspot.com/2014/07/i-wanna-scrap.html
Tuesday, July 22, 2014. Welcome to Scrappin' Peeps summer camp hop. It you didn't arrive from Mandi's blog, be sure to go back and check it out. The Peeps have a week full of fun planned for all of us. We have all fallen behind in our scrapping and paper crafting and thought we would take advantage of this week of summer to get a bit caught up. Recently, however, I discovered a wonderful alternative! I purchased THESE pencils after a recommendation from a friend:. After stamping and coloring I heat embos...

My Scrap Bliss: April 2013
http://myscrapbliss.blogspot.com/2013_04_01_archive.html
Saturday, April 6, 2013. It is so often the "little things" that I remember. the smile on my son's face when he just can't help but show his feelings, the touch of my husband's hand on mine, the way my daughter wears different colors of nail polish on each finger. I think it is for this reason that I love scrapbooking. A single page can be my opportunity to document those little things and why they mean so much to me. Each page is a 12 by 12 freeze frame of my thoughts, my feelings, and my life. I don't ...

My Scrap Bliss: Smile!
http://myscrapbliss.blogspot.com/2014/09/smile.html
Sunday, September 7, 2014. It has been a long time since I was able to get in my scrap room and create anything. Life has been keeping me hopping. My mother has been very ill for the last month and spent time in both a hospital and a nursing home before finally getting home this week. With all of that and school starting, I have been so busy that I haven't had time to do anything just for fun. This afternoon I found myself with several minutes of actual free time. I almost didn't know what to do! Then I ...

My Scrap Bliss: January 2012
http://myscrapbliss.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Sunday, January 15, 2012. My creative spirit has renewed itself. I have been busy at work the past two weeks on a mini album that will be a gift for a dear friend. I'm actually making two of them, so I still have a bit of work to do. The hardest part is done however, since I plan to use the layout from the first album as the basis for the second one. Here is the result:. Not too bad, eh? Sunday, January 1, 2012. A New Year. A Renewed Me. Welcome to the first day of 2012. In the past I have, too often, al...

My Scrap Bliss: June 2012
http://myscrapbliss.blogspot.com/2012_06_01_archive.html
Friday, June 1, 2012. The Best Laid Plans. A lot has happened since my last post. The most significant thing is that I will NOT be retiring. The last two months have been filled with a lot of discussion back and forth between myself, the group who was going to be hiring me as a literacy coach, and the Kentucky Teacher Retirement Systems. It took three visits to Frankfort, but today it finally became apparent that I just wasn't going to be financially able to leave my job and take a different one.

My Scrap Bliss: March 2012
http://myscrapbliss.blogspot.com/2012_03_01_archive.html
Friday, March 9, 2012. Am I Getting Too OLD For This? Nope, I'm not talking about scrapbooking or crafting. I'm talking about some of the little things that we teachers do. This week was literacy week. As one of the middle school teachers I went out of my way to make sure that my students were actively engaged in reading, writing, speaking, and listening to literary things. To end the week today some of us thought that we would do a little something special. Here's a full length look:. Oh well, at least ...

My Scrap Bliss: Determination....
http://myscrapbliss.blogspot.com/2014/07/determination.html
Friday, July 4, 2014. My goal for this summer is to finish my son's senior album. I suppose that it is about time. after all, he will be a college junior in the fall. LOL! I am having a lot of trouble with the pages because he selected the 8 1/2 X 11 album size. He thought it would fit into bookshelves better. Anyway, I have been scrapping 12 X 12 pages for years now and I love that size because it allows for so much more embellishment and detail. I am amazed at what a little determination can do.
