Howdeeee all!

Well could it really be? Now dont fall down and hurt yourself or anything when you see/read this. Hi there, its Wendi... Meriah's imaginary friend, complete with a 
caped superhero costume and pixie dust LOL

As my darling BFF mentioned, life has decided I needed a couple more curve balls 
(the 967648494947948.08 werent enough apparently)
so I have been busy and will continue to be pretty busy till June. 
(crossing fingers, toes and eyes)
However, by the grace of our good Lord above, I managed to find some time this last weekend to lose myself in some scrap time and got a couple pages done with pictures I felt hesitant to work with. I learned two things from it... that I still do know how to and love scrapbooking and... time does heal :)

Anyhew, heres three for now, all of my boys... both of which I am uber crazy about. 
I have more to post soon so stay tuned :)



This first one was a simple challenge I gave myself to get going... I challenged myself to use only stickers on this page. I used Echo Park -"Sweet summertime" and bazzill cardstock. I had to mat the pictures because otherwise they got lost in the blue. Anyhew, quick... rather easy and... DONE! :)

My boys last July at the Oregon Coast...
I used all Rusted Sun line for this page... LOVEDUH the surfboard theme... so glad I bought extra of that paper :)




And last but not least, my youngest's birthday party last September...
All of this page was done using Bo Bunny papers (thank you Meriah!) and bazzill cardstock
Usually I do two pagers for birthdays but again, I challenged myself to doing a single page layout... 


Thanks for looking :)

Cricut Cardz Challenge #67

CLICK HERE for the Cricut Cartridge Chaos Challenge.

Welcome Friends,
This week at Cricut Cardz Challenge, Mary asked us to make a card for spring using the colors Pink, Green, and White Only. Spring Colors! Color challenges and I do not get along. But I did have one cartridge that spoke to me. " Lori's Garden ". I have not used my Imagine in some time, and I really need to start getting back into the habit of using it more. I was using it all the time for non imagine projects, and felt my expression was getting left out. So now they both get used for there specific talents.

Here is my card this week.


Recipe for Imagine Card:
Cricut Imagine " Lori's Garden " Cartridge
Lori's Garden Paper printed on Imagine
Rosettes in Bo Bunny " Holiday Cheer and Holiday Cheer Swirly Whirly "
Cuttlebug " Music " Embossing Folder
Cricut Imagine Stock Image
and Cricut Imagine for Badge.
Cricut Imagine Loris Garden Border

Hope you all have a wonderful day!
