more smashing

I've been smashing a bit more with the 2011 photos that I haven't had time to scrap...I found this has been the easiest way so I can get all caught up before 2012!  I gave my little photo printer quite a workout last weekend ;)

 Some random vacation pics.

Avery playing with my mom's old dollhouse for the first time.

Pics of my sister and her husband pre-baby.

and pics of them post-baby :)

Just some random pics of my sweet little niece Maria Rose :)  Isn't she darling?

This Smashbook stuff is so addicting that I can't wait to start on my next one!

Happy Monday everyone!

more Smash pages

Just a quick post today...

Here's a couple more pages from my Smash album.  I now have to wait a little while for some more Hipstamatic prints to arrive in the mail before I can finish it :)

I think this is hilarious!

We haven't done much today, just a little block construction and destruction, it's even rainier and colder than it was yesterday so I'm taking it easy because the next few days are gonna be BUSY...

Here's to couch snuggling for the rest of the evening!

a rainy, fall day

OMG!  I just looked at my dashboard and I now have 2, count 'em TWO, followers...holla!!!  It doesn't take much to excite me, does it?  Haha!

Fall has seemed to have arrived in it's full glory of rain, cold wind, and cloudiness here in So. IL.  I even kicked the heat on last night!  I don't really mind this type of weather because I get to spend more time in my craft room, but those parked tractors and combines in the distance are a good sign that my hubby will be in a funk for the rest of the week since he won't be able to get out in the field :(

Here's a few more pages from my Smash album...

Obviously, this is a page in progress :)


I don't think the kitties know what to think about this weather :0)

I think I'm going to spend the rest of the day on the couch with a hot chai tea and a good book...ahhhh, this is why I love fall and days like this :)

Have a great day!

a Smashing good time

I actually got to Smash today!  I've had my Smash album by K and Company for a few weeks now and I've been dying to get my Smash on :)

I will be posting pics all week of my pages so get ready...

I got mine at scrapbook.com.  They come in several different colors and themes so it will be hard to pick just one ;)

I was overwhelmed when I first opened my album because of all the prompts and pre-designed pages, but once I got over myself I starting whipping them out.  The whole point of a Smash album is to just go with the flow, use what you've got, and Smash it down...do what you want to do.  There doesn't have to be any rhyme or reason.  This is like scrapbooking old school style...

It's super easy and relatively cheap (about $12.99 for the album) so get Smashing!
