About Me

My Photo
Fresno, California, United States
I'm a life-long crafter with a passion for miniatures and scrapbooking and anything else that satisfies my need to CREATE. The loves of my life are my sweet baby girl, McKenna (born November 2007) and my husband of nearly 10 years, Ryan. I'm also furmom to Pinkerton, the piebald dachshund, Weezer the mostly-weenie part-moose dog and I'm still missing my Ziggy. They are my inspiration and motivation.

A Public Service Announcement:

Don't go to the LA Zoo if you're allergic to bees!

We had a great time at the zoo, but were not expecting the massive amount of bees buzzing about! Even after we saw the sign at the entrance warning us of the bees' presence, I don't think we were expecting quite so many. They are all over, especially around the trash & recycling receptacles.

Did I mention I hate bees??
Ryan was getting a little annoyed with me because I would freeze up whenever one got close.

And unfortunately, McKenna got her first bee sting :( Right between her first two fingers. They got all red and swollen! But she was so good, we didn't even realize when it happened, just looked down and saw her puffy little finger. I feel so bad that she got stung, but it is good to know that she's not allergic. That had been one of my big fears. (Anyone see My Girl?)

Well, like any good scrapbooker, I had to take pictures to document the event, and here's the resulting layout:


The paper has been in my stash for a while. Not sure who makes it. I doodled on the bees and bee trails.
* The acrylic Alphas are from atd; I outlined them with the larger side of my Zig writer.
* The black Alphas are Doodlebug Design (Loopy Lou).
* Cardstock photo mats are from the DCWV Brights stack.
* Bracket Rub Ons are from Luxe Design

On a side note, I've listed my Halloweenies in My Etsy Shop. You can see my little mini gallery over there on my left sidebar.

I've also started a Facebook Product/Fan Page for my Halloweenies. Still not quite sure what I'm doing there, though. I've been on Facebook for a while, still playing around with this new idea though :)
