It was made with ingredients so that we and/or Ansel could eat it. LOL I passed however. Emma started horseriding lessons Wednesday. Need to get her prepared for when Ruby is broken and trained. That is in the distant future. She learned a lot her very first lesson.
I have been scrapbooking up a storm. I was Guest Design Team for September for Life Preservers for winning a sketch challenge.
Von from Life Preservers is so attentive to our wishes and wants. I begged for the Prima Rebellious line and she happily obliged. It just so happened that my month to be GDT was the month the kit with the Prima came in. I knew it would be perfect for Emma's Palace Idol party. This picture makes it look lopsided but it is not IRL. I used masking with alphas and stickles for part of my title. I thought it was something different.
I just hope I gave this product justice. I love this kit!
Emmas cheerleading organization had a yard sale. Someone was selling this frame but it was white, dusty, and had old silk flowers in the bottom part. So it screamed "Alter me!". And that I did. I used an 8.5 by 11 picture from visit to Strawberry patch and one of the Life Preserver kits for this. And I painted the frame with some acrylic paint. This was one of my submissions for a Design Team call that Von had. I made First Alternate. What a blessing!
This is the page I did using a sketch from PageMaps that Von used for Life Preservers. This is the page that I won GDT for September with. Some of our summer pictures from the lake. 
Right now I am participating in a challenge on Willow Traders. Basically it is challenging us to get several pages done a month. I am really enjoying it. This was from week one where we had to use all the letters of the alphabet on a page. It came to me pretty quickly to use the negative part of a page of Sassafras Alphas for my background. I love how this turned out.
I purchased a kit off of ScrapLove quite awhile back from a dear friend. During the Big Scrapper House challenge on Life Preservers I assembled this mini album.
Another submission of mine for the Life Preserver Design Team call. I used a LP kit that had the Scenic Route Garden Grove. I am so bummed that they are closing their doors. They have always been a favorite of mine. 
This page below was from the Life Preserver Big Scrapper House challenge. I think it was to use circles but can not exactly recall. I also used the Scenic Route LP kit. 
My ATC cards from a swap that was done on Life Preservers. I am not sure if I am 100% sold on ATC's or not. 
Thanks for looking at my art and hearing about my life. More to come!!!
