The Scarborough Parade
More pictures from the Renaissance Faire album that we’re making for Marsha. I would’ve added these to Karen’s site but I forgot my password. C’est la vie!
There are so many more snaps of the pages to come (these are just the parade pages) … but the book has been finished and presented! yay!!

When Nerds Cross Stitch
Well I gave my cousin the blanket and everyone seemed happy!
Now I just have to finish the other one I am doing for the couple who helped me with the translation. For all those who care.. here is the process for the pattern making.
I Used a Tag…
I hope Erin does not get mad at me… but I used a tag this weekend on my scrapbook. Just seemed cute, since it went with the Dallas Arboretum photos:
I have also been doing quite a bit with the lettering illustrated in my new book. Shoot, forgot the name, but here is a sample:
And I also decided to use pop dots with my mosaics. I think this one looked really cool!
And I also worked on this one… was a bit harder since the mosaic had too much space inbetween:
Scarborough Babes
Our View: Two fair maidens went to Scarborough on a mission of good-will…
Everyone Elses View: Erin and I desended on Scarborough Faire with camera, papers, pens and video camera.
See our adventure…
Arboretum Photos
I added my arboretum photos to my scrapbook. I think I did a total of 11 pages this weekend. And I thoroughly enjoyed it! Here is my favorite, though. Great for blackmailing!
I also did my first couple of mosaic photos. Here is one:
Since there were so many photos, I just uploaded them to my site… Visit the May 17th Weekend Scrapbook Page!
So hard at work.
Yay, Maria! Now we just have to set HER up with access to this blog …
So here’s what I was working on. Yes, even more baby pictures. My friends just keep having kids, so there you go!
The last page from Chloe’s birthday … I drew a border at the top, used some of my new paper for matting, and there you have it!

Maria’s Joined our Cult!
Last night, Erin and I went to the Scrapbook Superstore and sucked Maria into our cult. Here is a proud Maria with her first page ever!
And here is Erin and Maria scrapping away:
Beach and Cat
Today has been pretty icky all ’round, so here’s something cute to look at. (yes, I’m biased.)
First we have the page I just did of going to the beach with my sister last summer. Notice that I forgot to get two “H”s cut out. Yes, I’m that smart, too.
Then we have another one featuring my main man Clive. Darling, yes? Obviously I’m starting to get interested in better lettering (still hand-lettered on Clive’s page) and the background paper. Whee! The craziness never ends!
I need to get a life…
Yes, I scrapped more today. I figured that if I am spending this much darn money DAILY that I need to do something with it!!!
Here is the page I did last night at the Scrapbook club. Kasey just loves her kong filled with Peanut Butter!
Tonite I worked on pictures from Easter…

I did it!!
I finally sewed something with my new sewing machine! (And no, it was not paper like scrapbooking overachievers — kidding! — do.)
I woke up way too early on Saturday and decided to pull out the sewing machine. I’d bought a cute fabric remnant at Wal-Mart so I could play and also get the machine de-greased from the factory oiling. The fabric was a 21″ rectangle … evenly cut, lightweight, etc.
I’d had this idea about making a pillow for the cats — with a twist.
