hippity hoppity.....

Easter IS on it's way. March certainly flew by and April is almost here. The Easter season is more than Easter egg hunt's and chocolate covered bunnies (unless they are filled with peanut butter). For my family, it is about our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. His Death, Burial and Resurrection and that Empty Tomb... He is Risen.... He is ALIVE... Oh, what an amazing feeling, as a Christian, to know that Christ will come again. Amen.

Spring is in the air and there is still a hint of crisp, coolness to it here in Florida. And it feels amazing and refreshing. We might be one of the few places in the US that is not getting snow.

Since my last post, we have been busy with Spring Break and a birthday party. Blog posts will be coming soon.

I am pleased to share with you this very cute, Easter page using the new Hippity Hoppity line from Sonshine Graphics Studios. This line is super versatile and will be sure to satisfy either your boy or girl pages as it offers a variety of color options. Please stop by and check out Sonshine Graphic Studios and all of the digital kits that are available.

Enjoy the page and Happy Easter from our Family to yours.

I "Mustache" You a Question

Errrr... Maybe I'll "shave" it for later. Bwahahaha!

What is up with all of this crazy mustache stuff? The jokes are endless and the the comments and laughter that it elicits are nonstop.... Whether they are slim, thin, little pencil mustaches or the wide, caterpillar, cover, most-of-your-lip, handlebar mustache, they are all the rage and my almost-nine-year-old-DAUGHTER is no exception. As a girl, one of the worst things EVAH was someone eluding to a little peach fuzz on the upper lip but, now girls are wearing mustache necklaces and earrings as well as mustache clothing. Mustache, mustache, mustache... they are everywhere! Man, how times change... I am seriously dating myself here, I presume;-) But really, WHERE did they come from

I had some crazy-fun making this super cute and fun MUSTACHE Birthday invitation for Sweet Cheek's upcoming 9th birthday party. She enjoyed making her mustache and posing for her pic:-) That is one of the cool things I LOVELOVELOVE about DIGITAL scrapbooking. If you have a great digital scrapbooking software like the one offered by Creative Memories.This invitation was made from the "Panda Love" and "Life's A Beach" lines from the amazingly talented Sonshine Graphic Studios. Mustaches were also courtesy of the amazing Dina Gerner.

So, on top of making scrapbook pages, you can also make your child's birthday party invitations. Just another reason to love digital scrapbooking. So, I MUSTACHE you a question. Will you come to my party? Afterall, who could say NO to this face?

My Beach Baby....

Time sure does fly when you are having fun and it sure does seem like it was yesterday that we were at the beach celebrating Sweet Cheek's second birthday. But that was over a year ago! WOW! Where does the time go? Certainly way too quickly. Sweet Cheeks turned three a few months ago. It is truly amazing the changes that happen developmentally between two and three. Between potty training and their language skills alone, those are huge!

But this post is about the beach... this picture was taken on December 22nd. How many places in the US is it warm enough to even entertain the thought of shorts, let alone a swimsuit, in December? Florida! One of the reasons you gotta love living in Florida.

Sweet Cheeks is no exception and she loves running on the beach and sticking her toes in the cool water. She's not going to get too wet because the water is pretty cold but but all in all, it makes for a great day. Is there anything any cuter that sandy, baby toes?

This sweet scrapbook page was completed using the super beachy and fun collection "Life's A Beach from Sonshine Graphic Studios. The colors are perfect for designing your scrapbook pages for the sweet, cheeky girl or the rough and tumble boy in your life. Lots of pinks, blues and, greens and yellows. Super fun!
