Sunday, October 24, 2010. Childhood Memorabilia: Keepers or Castoffs. Had the fortunate opportunity to spend three weeks in the United Kingdom with some members of my family – girls only. We even went on a Harry Potter movie tour. That’s right, Harry Potter and Twilight. In the same year! I thought about blogging during the trip, but there was really only so much time during the day. I did keep a journal (for the scrapbook! And will post some pictures to the blog soon. Find order in organization. You may...

Saturday, December 22, 2012. Walls Family Holiday Riddle 2012. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year! Enjoy this year's riddle! I am the shape of Captain Hook's arm. And a nostalgic Christmas charm. In duplicity, I make a heart. I'm a kitschy medium for art,. But to performers, I might cause alarm. I sometimes have a wooden spine. I resemble a barber's sign. Jimmy Smits was heir to me. I'm a cactus and a tree. And a servant for those who are blind. I can be read, played, shot and licked. A prop for tap,.

Sunday, May 23, 2010. French Broad River Bike Ride Biltmore Estate. Written August 9, 2009]. We spent one of the few torrid days this summer season outside in the back yard. Summer played with a bucket of water and her sandbox. Adam trimmed some low-hanging branches, and together we transplanted Summer's sunflower from a large pot on the deck to out in the yard. While Adam was digging the hole with the augur, Summer exclaimed, "That's cool! Today also happens to be Crop Club. On the Biltmore Estate.

Monday, February 22, 2010. Irish Soda Bread Paper Recipe Album. I posted these pics to Facebook, but never got around to posting them to the blog. There's quite a few, so I'll post my faves here. You can view the rest on Facebook. Late autumn means holiday shopping, right? I culled together various images and clippings I found online. I printed the pictures using my Kodak printer, cropped them, and, along with the paper and stickers that came with the kit plus a few other embellishments, created a on...

Saturday, October 24, 2009. How to cut a piece of paper. Wednesday, July 29, 2009]. Ever notice how each page presents different hurdles? I start with an X-shaped layout (three pix diagonally, then the other two on opposite corners). (image 1).

I leaf through idea books and magazines, visit the Creative Memories Project Center. I plan to use the jumbo circle pattern. To cut two oppos...

Mom is sorting and organizing some embellishments, and I get back to my Biltmore Estate scrapbook. For the layout of my next gold dust page. I start with the two photos that got pushed off my last page. I decide I’m going to mat the photos on this page with photo moun...
