Best of 2009

Usually you do the top ten of something, and I intended to do the top ten layouts from 2009 but when I started looking back I couldnt limit myself like that, so this is going to be my favorite projects because some of them are paper layouts, some of them are digital layouts and some are altered projects. I love doing this, really makes me smile :)
A kind of All About me:

During the summer I ran the Rusty Pickle Amazing Race and this is one of my favorite projects from it:


I did this fun little project for a Rusty Pickle Blog Hop, using an embroidery hoop:

I love this picture of my mom and Jenna and I created this layout on a canvas, my mom loves it!

Just a fav layout:

Some layouts from my DT work at Treasured Scrapbooking:





This layout has a story behind it, it was a challenge, to close your eyes and choose 5 items from your stash. My stash is so ginormas that I chose some random stuff and had my daughter close her eyes and choose, and I have to say it is one of my favorite layouts!

I love this quick little project, just a cute altered frame:

I am so not a card maker but I loved this card:

And on to some digital layouts:





























and I did a December Daily this year:





This layout was therapy for me, I lost my 9 year old pug in April of this year, held her a she was put to sleep, and I did this layout the night it happened, I still miss her:


And if you stuck with me on this and have reached this far I commend you :)

December Projects for Treasured Scrapbooking

I am lucky enough to receive both kits from Treasured Scrapbooking each month, which is ending this month, so I get to create with both! January goes to one kit with several different add on options such as a cardstock add on, a paper add on, an embellishment add on and a mini album add on, trust me, you will LOVE the options! Anyhow like I said I got both kits, and I have created mainly with Kit 1:

Gloomy Days Go Away


These are the layouts I did:






and my altered item. This is a 12 x 12 canvas, I used the back of the canvas and used it like a shadow box:



I made an Advent Calendar with the papers from Kit 2


I made these quicky candy bags for the teachers/aides at the kids elementary school:


And then I made this altered Comp book for Jeromys teacher:


Here is a peek at Kit 2:
