Fun at the Farm!

Schreiber's Farm in CT that is! I saw the opportunity to scrapbook these photos when I saw Kristy's sketch over at Design Dollies! Loved it..had to do it...and this is what I came up with!

I pulled the colors for this LO from Emma's sweater. I wanted to try a different color combo than just "fall" colors because we were on a hayride in October! I loved the outcome!


I am so behind on challenges it isn't funny...hoping I can play catch up this week! Big hugs everyone!!

Dollie's Trifecta Quickie!!

It is very late, and I have had one heck of a weekend!! So I need to post this fast to make it into the Trifecta over at Design Dollie's! Let me tell you...THIS WAS HARD! It took me 3 days to get it right and I still HATE it. But I feel it was a good start to doing trifecta's and I will get used to combining so many challenges into one. I have to say, I was NOT fond of this color challenge at all and that was what was the hardest to work with!! (No offence Doll's, I love your challenges, this one was just rough for me lol!) Well, I guess it worked out in the end. Certainly one of my least fave LO's, I may end up tearing it apart and making a re-do! Ugh...but anywho! Here it is for your un-enjoyment...



On a happy note, I got my Chamilia/Pandora bracelet back which I was missing terribly! (the clasp broke and I had to have it replaced) I was happy to have it back on my wrist "wear" it belongs! Alright, I need to get my buns to bed..I will post much more interesting things tomorrow! Giant hugs, Happy Scrapping!
