New love....

In my kitchen....isn't she pretty?  A chocolate brown composite sink paired up with a Moen Boutique facet ...so pleased :) now on to the next phase...

December stories....

I took Olivia to see the Nutcracker Ballet on Friday night,  she loved it, and I don't know why I was surprised to notice she was humming along to a few of the  music pieces.   We enjoyed ourselves.  

Armed with paper and a pen....

Off to Toys R Us we go....to create our Christmas list for Santa....remember the days when we use to pull out the Sears Wish book and spend hours studying every image? Gosh, do they publish it anymore ?  I honestly could not think of a better way to have them create a list....I've seen a few flyers....nothing great...

Here's Olivia writing down every Calico Critter set...I think her list is 4 pages long.

I think Josh has 3 things on his list, an iTunes card, the newest sky landers set, and a dirt bike....hmmm, should be an interesting year....lol

Kobo love....

Really am enjoying this new little toy of mine....it is small enough to fit into purse pocket...for those long waits at specialists appointments ...

Super excited!!

I have all the stuff for my December daily....

Can't wait to get started.....just need a new printer...no I really don't but it would be so convenient to print wirelessly from my iPhone....especially the Instagram photos...

Thanks for stopping by...

Perfect little things...

   

Keeping cool...

Our pool is 90 degrees...it hasn't been that warm in three years...the last time was when hubby was in the hospital...

Love it!!!   

My kijiji table....

I bought this fabulous table off kijiji for $50 I live the shape of it....not so much the colour....someone tried a faux finish that was really a faux pas!!!! Lol but I fixed  that!   Took a bit to get the top to come into its own....the bottom happened easily ...with a dark brown paint in the cracks....finally tonight I found the right paint/glaze ratio and found it moved very nicely with three different colors of paint....tomorrow I will add a few coats of glaze...and we can move our meals back into the kitchen ;)

See you soon!!

What's going on?

Canada day in Caledonia Is fabulous....so much to do ...young and old....Olivia met Hello Kitty!

I am so super excited about this!   It's a PIA to blog ...too many devices ....I really need to do something about that....if I could use photoshop on an iPad I would buy one... I want one device ...but which one?   

Here is a pic of Olivia on Canada Day...

Thanks for stopping by.....

National Scrapbooking Day!!

Happy NSD to you!!

 

I think my blog has been badly neglected....ooopsy....truth is I've been flying by the seat of my pants the last 6 month...sigh...who cares...blah blah....LOL...it's the weekend!!!!

 

Ready to find out another item you need to use on your layout?

 

Corrugated card board!  Cool stuff...adds sooo much texture to your layouts...and Fancy Pants has it is so many colours right now....matches all their new mid-releases....just sayin :)

 

If you do not have any corrugated card board just use kraft paper....close enough :)

 

Here is the layout I created with this month's kit...Swagger....and this kit has two sheets of corrugated cardboard, regular kraft and a soft grey...I used the soft grey in this layout, and I tore it by hand so it wasn't so perfect, sometimes things are not suppose to be perfect right?  This is one of them :)

 

 

 

Now it's your turn to create.....head back to Boys Rule where you will find Mr.Linky to submit your layout.

 

Thanks for visiting....
