..:: Is Frustrated! ::..

I always loved to read the cricut boards...inspiration, enabling, etc etc. Now it's like watching paint dry trying to get into the boards. Ridiculous! I've sent in the questionnaire about their "maintenance" and still it's been like 2 months of wait 3 minutes for a page to load. Totally discouraged and lost :( Where to lurk now :(

OK back to your regularly scheduled program...

..:: Princess Layout::..

I made this layout for some pictures of my niece. I think it turned out OK. Boy was it difficult making a girl layout! OI!

Hope you all have a great weekend!!

..::What I'm Working On::..

I want to make something girly. I have no girls but I had to have these faces from myscrapchick and so now I have to make something pretty! I don't like the cut outs of the printed bits. So I cut it myself with my cricut and highlighted and shaded as needed. I think she's looking pretty princess like! Now to brainstorm the layout... The picture of course is way lighter than the real thing but it's the best I can do with no sun!

Hope you all are having a great weekend. We are melting here again!!

..::The Pampered Chef::..

Brent HAD to get Tobias a stove. He played with his cousins stove and loved the opening and closing of doors so we set out to find him a stove. Oh my word, you would of thought we were shopping for a new car. We found a lot. Brent hated every one of them. Each one he didn't like the door. I found a garage sale on craigslist with a kitchen stove set. I e-mailed and asked if she'd consider selling before the sale...YES!! She would! So...Tobias got the stove of Brent's dreams for...*drum roll* 5.00!!! I could not resist scrapping this. I've got to come up with a journaling tag..I have a plan but not sure yet.

Hope you all are having a fantabulous week! We are melting here!~

..::H2OH baby! ::..

Trever and Tobias swimming last week! I love love love these pictures. Trever has a hard time connecting with Tobias and this was just so special. Tobias' first time in the water and Trever loved feeling responsible (dad and I were RIGHT there) and he loves water so he was so in his element and I do believe Mr. Tobias is going to love it as much as Trev! Ducks are from myscrapchick of course! I used Thickers for the title...I'm not sure it's easy enough to read.

Hope you all are having a great week!!

..::King of Cute::..

I really like this design but am ready to move away from it for now! Last one this way! This is a picture of Tobias...5/5/2009 - 3 weeks old and he rolled from his back to his side! Precious little man he is! Patterns are from Myscrapchick.com You can't see the crown real well but it has jewels in it. I think it turned out OK!

..::Brent's Birthday Card::..

I used a pattern from Little Scraps of Heaven Designs and designed my own clouds in SCAL out of pure laziness! It was a fast card but I think it turned out cute.

Changing My Blog Name

After some thought (not very much) I've decided to change my Blog name. My niece, who is such a sweetie and I wish daily lived near me has called me Aunt Elmo since she was 3 or 4. She's 10 now and I'm still Aunt Elmo...

Soooo in honor of my sweet girl, I am changing my blog name to Aunt Elmo's World! How cute right?!
