I've bee scrapping

It has been a long time since I have been scrapbooking on a regular basis, but I am doing it right now. I am in the middle of a class at Big Picture Classes called The Mother LOAD and this is what is helping me scrap again. Right now we are gearing up for the big LOAD (layout a day) project in September. School is just around the corner (I have two day of inservice today and then I offically start back on Tuesday next week) and with that comes less time to craft. I am trying to get in a little craft time each night and building up my scrapping skills so that I can pull this off. I will start sharing some of my pages with ya'll starting with this one.

The challenge for week one was to scrap a page about why we scrapbook. I found this one very interesting and fun to create.

The striped paper is an old one from my stash while the banner was made from a WMS stamp set called Bitty Banners and then sewed into place.

Your Memories Here DT Post

I hope ya'll have been enjoying the Thanksgiving holiday. At my house, we're only half done as we'll be celbrating again today and then on Sunday. That being said, this will be another quick post. I've got my first Prima Live class projects to show ya'll today. I've been wanting to do one of these for a while now and decided to jump right on in. This is the fabirc layout one from YMH as I've also been wanting to play with cavas. I am really impressed with all of the goodies that come with the kit as I could make another one and really only need to buy another canvas page. I followed along with the link that YMH listed on the store site and completed this page in under an hour. The only I still need to do is include a little journaling (all of my pages must have a little something written) but I need to get the right pen from my mom. The video was easy to follow and bonus was that I could pause and rewind it when needed. Now that I've done one I can change it up next time is I wanted too. Ya'll have to check out the Prima Live products from YMH as there are some great choices. In fact, I just ordered the Art Try Display kit as my next one :)
