The kids are away...so mom gets to play!!

My kids and my niece are at their grandparents for a long weekend and my hubby is working days and nights....I know..so much free time! Well, I have been catching up on my sleep and scrapbooking! These are 2 new lo's I did last night.
This one is for treasuredscrapbooking for the second chance/challenge #1. Most of the lo was done using the ts kit #2 (that hubby bought me) and a heidi swapp ghost butterfly and bling circle. I painted the thicker letter stickers blue and then used a flourish stamp and stamped them in black. I ripped some nesting circles for the flowers and gathered and stitched some ribbon. The photo and the title are my treasured scrapbooking and blog photo and username. I journaled about how addicting the internet has become for me and how much I love treasuredscrapbooking and their challenges, crops and friendly people.



This lo is also for treasuredscrapbooking...Jenn's "double the fun" challenge. We had to use 2 of the same photos, pp in multiples of 2 and a 2 word title. I color enhanced my photos in photoshop to give them a funky boyish effect. I used 8 pp's including the paper for the title and my 2 word title is "SK8R BOY" I am pleased with how this came out...looks better in person. I did some stitching and used a kid stamp and dimensional clothes for the boy (from me&my big ideas) sooo cute...I think!
