At the end of the day



This is how I feel about my darling hubby. We just had a talk about what is important in our life and we both agree that at the end of the day...there is nothing more important than us 4. Us and our two wonderful kids. We both agree that it is because of them we go to work every day, get up in the morning and laugh and joke. We are living our life together and at the end of the day, that is all we truly need. I am so blessed by God for having these wonderful people as my family! Have a great week! Love and hugs! Lara

PS. If the layout doesn't show up right, sorry, having issues still, just click on it to see it in its entirety. I love the journaling,even if I do say so!

The best I have ever looked...


...in a bikini, EVER!

Just wanted to share this sweet gesture from my dad yesterday. Both my sister and I got an email with a short note "good morning girls". and this adorable picture of my sis and I, pops up. I am sure I have never seen that picture of us. Evidently, he is taking old slides and making them into computer/photos for us. I absolutely love the gorgeous head of hair that my darling sister has and how sweet it was that she was holding my hand. I guess I was barely walking and it is evident from the photo that my sis was holding me up and I kind of think of her to this day like that, my supporter and champion! I think I look incredibly sexy, schmexy in that cute little yellow, ruffled bikini with that completely, one hundred % fashionable bandaid on my nose! LOL!!!!Totally love this! And you can bet that I will scrap this in the near future, so stay tuned!

IT is Wednesday










Today is an ok day. Having a little issue that I will not discuss, that kind of made my day not so bright, but it will pass and I will move on and learn from it. I sometimes think these types of things happen because some people in my work, just do not want to say what they really mean. But I digress.

I promised more layouts as these really do make me happy...All the colors and the textures truly lift my spirit. I think you should check out the Lovebirds by SEI from Scrap Attack Scrapbooking that I got with my Design Team Supplies. I truly love this line, the colors are so vibrant. I was showing my layouts to my friend at my local LSS and she was truly envious of the colors and design and said she had wished she had gotten that line in her store. I am soooo glad I got to work with it! Colors move me and make things all ok!

Anyway, Happy Wednesday {HUMP} day...Teehee...Love and hugs. Lara

February Scrap Attack DT reveals





Greetings. Just got to finishing all my February DT and thought that I should reveal it the whomoever comes across my blog. Through Scrap Attack Scrapbooking online Store I get a box of goodies from Lauri every month. This month I was fortunate to work with the SEI lines, Jolie Chocolat and Lovebirds and that was a treat. Such scrumptious colors and textures, and the shinies...the glitter and glimmer were awesome too.

On a side note, I am really trying to work on the layout images...I think I have it figured out but have not fixed it yet...so please just continue clicking on the layouts to see the whole image. Have a lovely day! Love and Hugs! Lara

PS...stay tuned for the rest to be revealed tomorrow! ;)

In a Friday mood today






Ok, so blogging is a tough one...I get on the net and tend to surf more than post...there are some many amzing things out there to look at that inspire me to create. This is a layout I did that made me happy. It was meant to be kind of a spoof-y type layout that was fun and did not really make fun of the time and topic but just instead of walking around all regal about that time in my life, I thought that making it fun would be the way to go...I am so much more than I was back then...even if I was a "beauty queen". I love the title...it seems really fun.

The first layout {heart} was one I did after a make-n-take. The pink paper was used to cut out a heart to cover a particle board heart from CI. I thought the paper was so cute as it was that I needed to use it to for a layout aobut my sweetie. Love the way it turned out. I just mounted the pink pp on black CS and added lots of rubons. Seemed like a fun way to use something one might not use after it's been cut into!

Have a great day. Love and hugs! Lara
