I haven't gotten around to bloggin that my sweet, generous and wonderful friend Roxy (aka Foxy Roxy!) won tickets to Bryan Adams at the Wilton Friday night on Ebay and treated me. I couldn't believe it when she called to ask me to go. Crazy girl! I have never seen a show there and wow would I love to go back! It was amazing!!! I couldn't get really good pics because of the lighting but here's one I snapped while he was singing Heaven. Ahhh what a song! Ahhh the 80's what good times. Celebrity sighting too! We were sitting across from Helena Bonham Carter. I snapped a pic of the back of her head but I just could take a picture of her directly. I've got to chalk that up to class. I think even celebrities should be able to enjoy the concert in peace.

So here's Bryan :)






And here's my chicken shot of Helena, she's the one with the white top and red ribbon in her hair. She was amazingly beautiful and her hair was red not the dark dark color it usually is. She has impeccable style and was dressed like a gypsy.

Here's a pic of us after the show. I had the best time as always. Roxy always makes me laugh and enjoy being me. All my City mommy friends are meeting up Thursday at Cheesecake factory. It will be so great to see them all. It's been a few months since we all got together and right now I definitely need a little lift.
I have been dealing with some pretty heavy stuff in my life. My mom called me last week to let me know that my uncle passed away suddenly. He was only 57. When I was a kid I spent a lot of time with him and my Aunt and for the most part he was a big part of my life then. But I have issues with my mother than go really deep and there's things I haven't dealt with there that I keep pushing back and pushing back. I think writing about it will make it easier but losing a family member is never easy and I think I'll stick to the scrappy stuff.

So...check out the altered project I made today with some Jenny Bowlin chipboard I got in my RAK from Scrapping Out Loud. Thanks girls! I used my Birds of a Feather set from Unity Stamps.

Here's a close up

The Red Lightning Tomatoes

That's my son Scott with his hand on his head. Today was the 2nd round of play-offs for my son's soccer team The Red Lightning Tomatoes. yep, that's the team name and those boys came up with it all on their own. These boys have so much talent but learning to pass and talk to each other out on the field hasn't been their strong points this season til now. They came into the playoffs in 8th place and played the 9th place team yesterday to win 1-0. Today the parents were pretty sure we were going to be seeing the last game of the season because the boys were set to the play the 1st place team at 10:30 this morning. I'm SO glad I held onto hope that they could pull this out. I told my son before the game just do your best, well Scott did better than that. He and his team played like they were the 1st place team. They controlled the ball, the passed the ball and their defense dominated. Gilbert scored first in the 2nd quarter and that was all they needed. The rest of the game they continued to play amazing! They held on to shut out the other team 1-0 and what an upset! The 1st place team was eliminated by the 8th place team. I have never seen such a happier bunch of boys and parents. I'm so proud of my son, he's never played soccer before and to see him out there charging the ball and running hard to make key plays is just wonderful. So our next game is Wednsday night at 6 and I am really hoping these boys can take it all the way. Son, mom is SO proud of you!

Lily, cheering brother on!

Now for something scrappy! I made this card for Hero Arts blog. The challenge was to create a card in 15 minutes or less. I think ribbon always adds that extra flair to a scrapbook page or card. I loved this ribbon so much I went to Micheal's to get some more. Hope your Sunday is a scrappy one!

Tim Holtz inspired me...

Have you seen Tim Holtz's 12 tags of Christmas?? I browse his page often and he just simply rocks! I love all his techniques and products!! I wish I could buy everything he puts out there! I love that he takes to time to share his techniques and posts videos for you to follow along. I have a handful of supplies he uses and I purchased his distressing ink set from QVC and LOVE it!


So after browsing his site this afternoon and reading all 6 of his 12 tags of Christmas I packed up the baby and headed for Micheal's to buy some tags to embellish. I already knew I wanted to use a photo in my tag to document Lily's first year on Santa's lap. I also surfed a scrap store in Torrance because I haven't gotten my order from Two Peas yet and was wanting some new scrappy stuff.
I hit the scrapbook store first only to find that they were going out of business! Bummer on one hand, lucky me on the other cause everything in the store was 40 percent off! They had it all too! Prima bling, Chatterbox, Sassafrass...Oh I was SO overwhelmed and SO on a budget right now.
I told my hubs I was only going to Micheal's for tags and ribbon...lol I was good and only spent $20.00 and the girl working there was SO sweet, she gave me the extra 10 percent off that the mailing list peeps were getting in their emails. Of course trying to shop for scrappy stuff and wrangle Lily was SO not easy!
I finally made it back home and started working on my tag. I think turned out pretty nice. I don't have the metal items that Tim uses or the chipboard shapes but from my stash i think I created a nice ornament for our tree. Check out Tim's site and create one for yourself!

Hip Hop Hangover

This week I made a couple of projects with my Unity Stamps I have gotten over the last few weeks during Hip Hop. Angela has some great deals available at Unity until noon today so head on over after you check out my scrappy card designs!

First is a card I made with a snowflake stamp I got in my last order. I decided to wallpaper the image with two different color inks outdoor denim and crystal blue. I stamped the images first and then embossed the white card stock with the snowflake dye. It looks really nice when it's finished. I also use waxy flax to tie the snowflake button onto the ribbon. You can pick up many decorative themed buttons to add to your cards at Joanns.

The second card I wanted to cut a hole to create a window effect. Then I added some Stickles to a portion of the stamp. I love embossing white card stock. It really gives the cards a clean look. I added a clear snowflake to the sentiment for a little extra bling.

This card was pretty quick. It took me about 10 mins from start to finish. I just stamped the images and embossed them with clear powder and added a few scraps from my scrap bin. Can you tell I was loving the outdoor denim ink by Close to My Heart?

Here's my card from the Unity is golden challenge yesterday.

I made this little guy for the hip hop. Love this little owl. He's so cute!

Well that's it for today! Hope you have a great weekend and make something crafty!

A challenge and a Hip Hop!!!!

Hey there, hope you're having a Scraptastic week! I know I am. I have projects a plenty goin on over here at the Smith home. Too bad I can't post them all because some are gifts and I wouldn't want to ruin the suprise for some of you :)

I completed my challenge for Scrapping Out Loud this morning. I have NO idea who put the pink mojo in my scrapping but I scrapped two pink layouts in two days. I am so NOT a pink girl but it seems my scrapping mojo is. So here's my layout for the challenge this week to scrap a bad habit.

Journaling reads: If you ask my husband he'll tell you my bad habit is leaving my scrap space messy. Sometimes I feel I work best in this mess!

What is it about this guy??? Anyone else love the show The Mentalist! I am sooo not into blonde guys but Simon here's got something I just can't resist. Maybe it's his charm and sexy smile!!! Anyway I have to say that I was truely bummed there was no episode this week. It only makes me look forward to next week even more!!!!!

Unity Stamp's Hip hop is in full swing so join us in the SCS forum here!! Don't forget to check out the specials and new stamps that Lisa designed here. They are Oh so cute! Tmr I will be posting some great projects and cards I made this week with Unity Stamps for the Hip Hop hangover! Have a great day!

ReUse and ReCycle

I have to admit, I got on the band wagon a few months back and now I am a nut about recycling things and reusing them! My poor son now has to make more than one trip to the trash each morning now that I started separating the recycling. I'd like to show you a great way to reuse packaging you probably have in your scrap stash. Take these Thickers for instance

I took them out of the plastic package and resealed the bottom and cut off the top for my opening. Then I placed some decorative paper pieces that come in many cut colors at most craft stores in the bottom and placed the handmade frame ornament I made for a gift inside. Tie some ribbon for a fancy look and add a gift tag and Voila!

I find a lot of my embellishments come in these types of bags and they are great for a quick and easy gift wrap. I don't know if you are into homemade gifts but I think they are the best! I whipped up this little gift by adding a snowman and some felt snowflakes and bling to a Chatterbox frame in ivory. I tied a ribbon thru the back of the snowman button perfect for hanging on the tree! This project took me less than 15 mins. Embellished picture frames are super fast and easy. All you need is a frame, embellishments, glue gun and some ribbon. I'd love to see some of your handmade crafts so post your link in the comments section of this post.

Remember tmr is the Hip Hop over at Unity Stamps. Angela is always super generous with all her fantastic Hip Hop Specials! I can hardly wait to see what this week's specials will be. Plus the DT does a hop from blog to blog with a chance to win some great blog candy and we meet up in the Split Coast Forum for all day chatting here!

I made this layout for the Weds Unity Addicts Challenge. This week's challenge was to use your Unity Stamps to create a scrapbook layout. I usually don't scrap this pink but for some reason this is how I pictured my layout for this challenge in my head. Lots of pink!

I've been making some Christmas cards and projects this week I'll be showing you more of later this week. Here's a card I made the the Hero Blog challenge. I love this little penguin stamp by Hero Arts

Materials: CTMH exclusive inks outdoor denim, crystal blue and matching card stock. Stamp: Warm Winter Wishes by Hero Arts, Martha Stewart snowflake punch, felt snowflakes, ribbon, funky fibers and bling.

A few new creations and a recent loss of a friend

So today I have a few crafty little things I whipped up yesterday. First, I belong to a fun CafeMom group called Artistic Papercrafting. What a sweet bunch of talented ladies they are! Heather headed up this weeks Wacky Weds Challenge with an embellished bird house project. What a cute crafty little idea I said. Only problem was I had no birdhouse in stock to embellish. Not to worry tho because we all know how resourceful I am. Thankfully I hang on to odds and ends and had some cardboard on hand to work with. So I got to work using hinges and brads to connect the walls of my birdhouse rather than glue because it would be a pain to work with even tho a glue gun is one of my favorite replacements for glue dots these days. So a little paper kit from Close To My Heart, some Prima Bling, red velvet flocked paper, funky red fibers and Prima Holiday Poinsettia and VOILA! Whaddaya think??

The sentiment reads "Joyous Holidays Start with Loving Hearts and a Happy Home"
What a fun challenge, thanks Heather!

Next is my layout for The Design Experiment. We had to create a layout about what get us thru the day. I love my children with all my heart but it's my wonderful and supportive husband that keeps me believin in myself and standing tall.

I just love this paper kit by basic grey and the awsome sheet of stickease. I try to use everything up to avoid scraps. You should see my scrap bins! One is for plain cardstock and the other is patterned and they are bursting with scraps! So here is another layout I created using the basic grey line for a sketch challenge in my Cafe Mom group.

Don't forget to check out Scrapping out Loud's weekly project tmr. There's a new RAK up for grabs this month and you could win it if you come and join us!

I discovered some sad news while Googling for a friend of mine last night. i have to say that there are so many resources online to find old classmates and friends and a certain friend from my twenties was weighing on my mind these last few months. When I was 19 I moved to San Diego with my boyfriend (hindsight of course, what a mistake!) he turned out to be a two timing smuck but that's another story. I was working for JC Penny at North Count Faire in Escondido when I met a sweet guy named Paul in Men's shoes. At that time there were lots of handsome guys working at that dept. Paul and I became friends and he later introduced me to Gary Parrill. Gary was the funniest, sweetest, coolest guy I had ever met. He would have me rollin with laughter every time I was with him and Paul. They came to be very good friends and when my ex started stalking me those boys packed me up and moved me to San Diego to live with them so I'd be safe. Paul gave up his room to share with Gary so I'd have my own space and then Gary went out and furnished my bedroom with a beautiful daybed and accessories that were very girly. We'd go out dancing on weekends at the clubs and have a ball. I celebrated my 21st birthday with them and my mom came to visit me and fell in love with them too. Those boys were the brothers every girl should have. Time passed and each of us moved on and I lost track of both of them but Gary was always the nearest and dearest to my heart.

I had surfed around for a My Space page or a Facebook profile hoping I'd find somthing that could lead me to an email address to get in contact with him but I could never find anything until last night.

I sadly discovered thru his High School Alumni Page that my dear friend passed away in May suddenly while at work as the obituary read. He was working as a Hospice nurse at the Veteran's hospital in Miami. Gary was a RN stationed at San Diego Navel Base when I met him. He was so good at his job and he loved it.

Regret is an emotion I despise and as I write this post I am so full of it I can not express the way I feel other than just that. I wish I had been able to get ahold of him earlier. I guess now he knows as I write this how much I truely appreciated and treasured his friendship all those years ago. I can never begin to thank him enough for watching out for me and being there to listen and picking up my share of the tab on those late night Denny's runs. He never let me pay because he was such a gentleman. Gary, I've added Madonna's Vogue to my playlist just for you. I'll never forget that day in the park, watching you Vogue in the back of that Amigo making pass after pass by Paul and I. I am still laughing my friend...and I am sure you're still Voguing!

Friends Of Page Maps

Hope you are enjoying your holiday weekend and relaxing. I think I ate too much cheesecake and lost my scrappy mojo. I had all this free time to scrap and I've only made a couple of holiday gifts so far. Sorry no peeking til Christmas Mom.

I am really excited to share with you that I had the honor of creating a layout from one of Becky's awesome Page Maps! I received an email from her in late October after submitting a request to be part of her guest designers. Of course I was really excited to be picked. Becky's sketches are reguarly featured in Making Memories magazine. You can click here to see all of the December Page Maps she created. I did an 8 1/2 X 11 layout which is something I have never done before. It was really fun and challenging. So much so that at the last minute I changed my mind and made a whole new one to submit. The Aries in me, I know. So here is my first take, it's called The Apple of My Eye

I just felt the last picture was too close up and the layout didn't flow for me.

Here is my submission. I felt this one just worked although you have no idea what I went through to get it finished. My printer was running out of ink and I had no replacement ink left at home and I order them from online. Thankfully I was able to print these few pics and get it finished and submitted on time. A huge thanks to Beck Fleck for giving me this opportunity!!

At the heart of everything is family

I found this picture in a scrapbook my Grandma Bonnie made for me a few years ago. I had decided awhile ago that I was going to start scrapping my old photos but I just haven't gotten around to it. I finally pulled this one out to scrap two nights ago. My DH said that my dad looks like Jerry Garcia. I really don't see it, I just think we all including me at 3, look goofy.
I hope your all having a wonderful Thanksgiving with your families and friends. To me family is the most important thing we have in this world. I know I enjoy giving thanks for all I have but most important for my family. We all have different types of family, some are step parents, mother and father in laws, brothers and sisters. It doesn't matter what your situation is but more importantly the unconditional love that you share for each other. Sadly my mother and father split up when I was very small and my mom met her second husband pictured above with her and my grandmother. I was so lucky that he loved me like his own daughter. He's the only dad I have ever known and it was hard when my real father passed away when I was only 7 but I was even luckier to still have my dad Glenn there for me. When he and my mother divorced when I was 13 it was really hard on me. Over time tho we got stronger as a family and my dad remarried an amazing lady. She became my mom and loved me unconditionally. I grew to respect and love her just as I would my own mom. Sure it's a strange situation and not the traditional family most people have. Families situations change and it's the kids that can't change that, they just have to ride it out trusting that their parents are trying to do what's best for them. I know both my parents have always done what's best for me. My dad Glenn and my step mom Lori both love me unconditionally and it doesn't matter that neither of them are my biological parents. We are a family and that is what I am most thankful for today...

Altering and Saving the Universe!

Now that I got your attention...Sorry I couldn't resist that title. So I am deeming myself Queen of Blog challenges... I always seem to be doing at least one a day so if the shoe fits... Last night I was visiting my long list of blogs and came across a great challenge over at Hero Stamps Blog http://heroarts.com/blogs/club/ Create a last minute holiday gift using a Hero Arts Stamp. I only have 2 stamps from them so this little penguin seemed to fit. First I have been saving all of Lily's little snack cans to alter for Christmas cookie gift holders. So I started with this:

I used a 6x12 sheet of patterned paper to wrap around the can and used glue dots and adhesive to adhere the paper to the can. Then I used the Martha Stewart snowflake punch I got last Christmas and punched out some white snowflakes and used a little bling in the center. The top was easy to decorate as I cut a circle piece of matching patterned paper and glued in the center. Then I used my Crop a Dial Big Bite to punch two holes in the center of the lid to tie ribbon thru. I created the tag using a stamp by Hero Arts called Warm Winter Wishes and my Nestabilities scallop and circle die cuts. I tied a plastic snowflake button on the tip with some waxy flax and added ribbon and fiber. Cheap and easy! Total time to create was less than 10 mins and Voila!

Cute little stamp huh! Check out the challenge here http://heroarts.com/blogs/club/ The prize is a 50.00 gift certificate for the store, Yipeeee!!! Good Luck if you submit an entr

Now I remember saying in a previous post that I am really bad about scrapping things in order. Case in point my next page I whipped up Sat and Sun in between Scott's soccer games. A Christmas layout from a photo of Scott and Lily last Christmas. I used CTMH card stock and Prima's Holiday Poinsettia. You've got to get some of these flowers! So glittery and purdy! Then I found these ornaments at Micheals and knew they'd look great on a layout.

Now check out this cute little award I got today not once but Twice! First from Jessica and then again from Denise. Wow ladies...you are so sweet! Thanks a million.

Check out Jessica's blog here http://jessicahagland.blogspot.com/ and Denise's herehttp://scrappingfrommysoul.blogspot.com/

Whew that was alot! Sorry for long post today. Make something pretty tonight!

Finished up some layouts and another day of Soccer

I was able to finish up 2 challenges I wanted to get to this weekend, the first over at my second home Scrapping Out Loud http://www.scrappingoutloud.blogspot.com/ This week's challenge was to use over sized letters on your layout. I ran out of ink in my printer after I did the Prima challenge last week so I started digging thru some old photos' yesterday and came across our first trip to Bear Bear when Scott was only 4. We went up there to visit Santa's Village only to discover Santa had already packed up and headed back to the North Pole. I was really proud of Scott because he wasn't sad he just wanted to get out and play in the snow. I can hardly believe after looking at these pictures that Scott has grown SO much.

Make sure you check out Scrapping our Loud's Design team call too! I think it woulds be loads of fun to be a part of such a fun group of ladies. They are always stopping by to leave me some love each time I participate in their challenges.

I also completed the challenge over at The Design Experiment for this week. http://thedesignx.blogspot.com/

There are so many things going on in our lives everyday...this week we just want you to take a second and ask yourself "Why?" Take it to whatever level you want..silly, serious, reflective..you choose!

Well I chose the Silly route after coming across this picture of my Beanie Babies. Yep! I know laugh out loud cause I got wrapped up in the craze. I was hopping from store to store looking for each bear and hoping I'd collect them all because some day I was gonna get a fortune for them...

Um, yea Right. They currently reside in my garage in plastic bags and thankfully for them I had a daughter so they now have hopes of occupying her bedroom shelves some day. Anyone else give in to this madness??? I'd love to hear your story too!

So the rest of my day sadly will not include scrapping until possibly tonight after all the Soccer festivities that are planned. Today is my son's last regular season game at 12:30 and then we are having the team party. We had two games yesterday and after these poor kids played their hearts out they sadly lost both games. The first game was so intense I could not sit down. There was a kid on the other team that was pushing and tripping and all kinds of craziness and the other moms and I were like "Hey" but you know the men...."let them work it out on the field" What I did notice is that the boys banded together as a team to support each other against this bully and protect their team mates. It was inspiring to see the team spirit. One particular boy tho took the loss especially hard and did not return for the second game. I was really sorry to see the parents allow this. I think that in team sports it's really important that the kids realize that whether you win or lose, you do so as a team. I hope to see him today as do the other boys.

Hip Hop Hangover...

I mentioned the Hip Hop over at Unity Stamps is every Thursday. Always lots of fun and challenges. You can join us here next Thursday http://www.splitcoaststampers.com/forums/showthread.php?t=380903 Here' are a few of the cards I made for yesterday's HOP.
First was the snowflake challenge. We had to use snow or snowflake on our cards.

Next was the square card challenge. I used the fanciful dots for the center of the flower

and finally this card was for the Weds Unity Addicts

You can still get in on FREE SHIPPING today til noon and as always Angela was VERY generous

with some serious discounts on totally cool RUBBAH! Click the link below to see some of Unity's new releases too! http://theunitystampco.blogspot.com/

i didn't make it for the midnight showing of Twilight tho I know ALOT of fans in Los Angeles did! Living in the big city they had lots of showings. I am going to check it out Saturday afternoon by myself since none of my friends (thanks Dominique and Roxy) are interested. Why don't any of my friends like vampire stuff? They all tease me about True Blood too! There is only one episode left this season and it looks GOOD!

Has anyone seen the trailer for Star Trek??? OH WOW!!! Spock is played by Zachary Quinto (total hunk) who plays Sylar on Heroes. I love J.J. Abrams, he's amazing and I was HUGE fan of Alias so the trailer was amazing. Check it out here http://www.startrekmovie.com/
