Wow... has it really been that long since I posted here...APRIL???? No idea where the time goes. I promise that I have not been lazy and just sitting around doing nothing ;-) It's been hot hot here again for the past couple of days. I'm tired of air conditioning and closed windows. Fall, where are you because these hot summer days are getting old?!?!
This little pumpkin has a small part in distracting me from blogland.
He is almost 6 months old already! I can hardly stand how much fun he is and he amazes me every time I see him.
One with his mama...
You can see more photos on my Facebook wall...check out my albums for more of my photography sessions (another reason I've been so busyand time has slipped away on me!)

There was the Summer CHA show too in July that kept me swamped with paper crafts. Here are a couple of Maya Road projects from that time.
^^ There's my little distraction again! :-)
You can see more photos of the above project on the Maya Road Blog HERE. Loved making this sparkly little project for their booth in Chicago.
I also made a couple of projects for sale as kits. You can go to The Scrappy Gourmet for this mini album information.
It's loaded with product... trims, patterned papers, buttons, giant patterned rhinestone accents, chipboard, epoxy and stickers all added to a wood Pink Paislee album. Lots of fun.
Then there is a 3 page layout set that they named "Color me Pretty" over at Frost it Pink. They are full of embellishments all layered up with product from Cosmo Cricket.
So summer is almost over... the days are seeming hot and long and I am ready for fall anytime with it's cooler days and nights. School starts in one week here in my hometown and we always seem to have one last hot spell. Always. My youngest, Cort is in 9th grade this year....another sign that time keeps slipping away. Here's a couple of late spring photos...
Thanks so much for stopping by! I know it's been too long to expect anyone to remember me and my blog so I want to have a GIVE AWAY to celebrate my first post in 3 months. Who wants to win the completed album above that is for sale at The Scrappy Gourmet? Yep, no photos, just the completed pages for you to fill up with your own memories. Post a comment here for a chance, then tell your friends on your own blog or on your Facebook page and let me know for a 2nd chance!
Love to all,
Linda
Ok Linda, I know you are one busy gal....but where are you? hahaha...I know you have a young man in school, you are creating, and making things...probably traveling a bit...but still...
Hope you are doing well.
OUr kids are out of our home...but every chance we have time off we go see them. It gets better and better. But I do miss them more....
Thinking of you!
Blessings,
debbie

Sometimes I really want to know you. Don't know why not pay attention to too much about it. I'm sure you'll understand my mood now. Don't know why. I think I like you.
