But now it seems to have started to level out.So now im finally getting to get back into my scrapping, YAY!! This past weekend between kiddos runnin in and out of the house and baby girl teething on everything she can, I mannaged to get 3 LOs finnished but I have so many more to do!!

So theres this blog....

 So I was on the net searching for random things, (spending all my time looking at random things when I should actually be doing something!), when I came across this blog that had all kinds of stuff on in from how to take great pics with an iphone, ways to improve your blog, twitter, facebook, and at the moment shes also pregnant and is blogging some about that as well. I really like her blog, Fat mum slim. She also posts a photo a day challenge.
  Ok so this photo a day challenge is something that really intrigues me. I use my phone for pictures, as most people do now, I have my digi camera and then I went and bought me a 35mm film camera too cause I still love the look of real film pictures. I use to take pictures in excess, but even though I have my phone with me all the time I've realized that I don't take pictures near as much as I use to. I'm a mother of 4,so I have plenty of inspiration and so many photo opportunities, but as my 2 oldest got older I kinda slacked off and I hate to admit that because there's still so much to capture but then the other 2 came along and I try to take more pics but it just seems like there's to much going on, but I want to make sure to capture all kinds moments with all 4 of them, So back to the Photo a day challenge, I've got it bookmarked on my phone so that I can attempt to keep track of it that way and take a picture each day. I think this is an awesome idea to keep track of things, documenting a memory a day. So......I'm going to try and do this every day, I know I'm a little late starting since its already the 7th but still going to attempt,lol.

But I love the pics that she post on her blog, the articles she writes, definitely a blog I would suggest taking a look at.....

Hello everyone!!  My blog is new as you see and I've also got a Facebook page that I'll be adding the link here soon, but I love scrapbooking, crafting of any kind, doing DIY things and any kind of crafts and fun with my kiddos! So there will be a bunch of mixed stuff here!

Well I don't know about you but I've been loving all the new scrappy goodness that's been coming out in the summer release! And I cant wait to get my hands on so much of it!! One thing I don't have to wait on is by Marion Smith, her online shop is AMAZING! You can go to her shop and she has printable kits shes designed and if you don't want a whole kit shes got individual items as well, so you can still buy a whole kit and then even add more character to it by adding some of her other items, there all so beautiful! She also has another collection that's coming out called Mad Tea Party, this is actually a real paper collection with tags and euphoria. You'd have to go to her blog and shop to check everything out, Mad Tea Party isn't available yet its still up for per-order but I'll be waiting for it!

I'm loving some of My Minds Eye Cut & Paste collection, I think I'll be getting a bunch of that collection, a little of this and a little of that. I love that they make there lines and collections where you don't have to buy all of the collections, but who doesn't want it all!, but you can get page by page and match them however you want and all there collections are like that! Love it! And then there Chalk Studio! Anything chalk is big right now as it is, the papers are awesome and I love what they say on them, you can always add so much to papers like these! The embellishments with the frames and mustaches :) There are so many more companies that I want papers and embellishments from, to may to list, but as I get them rolling in Ill post my lovely pics of the scrappy goodness! I cant wait to get my hands on it!!
