Oh Snap!

Good morning! Did you start cooking already for the big day tomorrow? I already did! Yummy, yummy! I wanted to taste every dessert but do it in a way that no one would notice....

Here's another fun layout I designed for the Scrap-a-teers last month in New Orleans. It's perfect for all the selfies our kids take!  (Sometimes big people, too!)
 
 
 Have a fabulous and blessed day!

Friends

Good morning and happy Tuesday!  Are you getting ready for Thanksgiving?  I sure am!  I am thankful for so many things and among them its the fact that I have amazing friends.  The Lord has truly blessed my life with many of them.

I designed these layouts for the Scrap-a-teers event last month in New Orleans. They loved the dolls of course, and who wouldn't?

Our Legacy

Good morning!  I trust that you had a wonderful weekend.
 
Here are two layouts that I made on the subjects of "family" and "legacy".  The colors I used on the second layout make it perfect for old black and white photos.

Happy Friday!

Good morning!  Here is another layout that I made for Treasured Memories.  It's a great title for a mix of old and current photos.  I'm not sure what you'll do for the future photos!
 

Thanks for visiting the blog this today.  Have a wonderful, safe and blessed week.

Piles of fun!

Good morning!  Here is yet another layout that I designed for Treasured Memories the last time I was there.  This one is about raking up all of those beautifully colored fallen leaves and what to do with the big piles. 
 
My husband tells me that he was young they would pile them all under a certain tree and then jump from the lower branches of the tree into the pile.  Then later they would light the pile on fire, something that is seldom done today because of the pollution laws.

Just Be You!

Good morning and happy Wednesday! This is another one of the layouts I designed for Treasured Memories last month. I love this paper line from Teresa Collins. So perfect for this time of year.
 
 
 
I belong to a great informal group of scrappers called The Hive and since my name is Bea we call it Bea's Hive.  We love everything with bees!  We meet once a month either in Dothan, Alabama (where we first met) or at a Scrapbook event somewhere in the Southeast.  I thank God for putting us together. We have the best of times and memories to last our lifetimes.
 
Here we are in the lobby of our hotel in Dothan this past weekend. 

 



And here we are outside!

 
Have a fabulous, wonderful, happy and blessed day!

Shabby Chic

Thank Heaven ... for Little Boys

Good morning friends!  Hope you had a lovely weekend. I spent mine with the Hive in Alabama scrapping for three days.  I feel totally refreshed after being surrounded by great company.
 
These are layouts totally related to little boys.  The first two I designed for Treasured Memories and the last one (Robots) I made it as a kit.
 



This is my precious grandson Andrew who inspires me to scrap little boy layouts.  He is very active and loves numbers, letters & shapes, the moon, and everything yellow - yellow lemons, yellow bananas, yellow sun (yeah... go figure!).

TLC

Good morning & happy Friday!  Here is a layout I made for Treasured Memories.  I made it colorful for a child's visit to the doctor or stay in the hospital.
 
 
Here's a picture of my granddaughter that would go perfect with this page.  She had some surgery the other day and this was just before she woke up from the anesthesia.

Just Imagine & C'est la Vie

Good morning!  Have you seen this new Prima collection called Epiphany?  It's busy but very striking.  Pictures printed in sepia will look great in this layout.
 

I designed this next layout for Treasured Memories last month.  Janet came up with this title since there's still some French dialect spoken in Louisiana and the Fleur de Lis with its French origin is very popular.


Have a wonderful and blessed day!

There's beauty all around...

Good morning and happy Monday!  Hope your weekend was as lovely and restful as mine.  I took the longest nap ever after I came home from church yesterday afternoon!  I didn't even know what day it was when I finally woke up and it was already dark outside.  I don't do that often enough, I guess.

These are layouts filled with color and layers. I designed them for Treasured Memories last month.
 

Julie Nutting dolls always look amazing no matter where you put them.


Madison and Andrew have been able to spend a lot of time together this year. They love each other very much and really enjoy being together, regardless of both wanting the same toy ALL THE TIME!!!



 My friend Sherry took these lovely pictures of them. Thank you my sweet friend and thank you for stopping by! Have a wonderful and blessed day!

Travel

Good morning and happy Friday!  In spite of my surgeries this Summer, I did a lot of traveling.  It seems like I was somewhere either close to or far from home every weekend.

Here are three layouts that I recently made.  The first two for Treasured Memories.
 



This one for Scrapateers.  In this one I combined a C Thru the Woods boy stamp with a Julie Nutting girl stamp.  They go together nicely, don't you think?

Animals - Pets & Pastime

Good morning!  Here are a couple of layouts that I designed for Treasured Memories the last time I was there.  The first one is done with Graphic 45 papers.

The second one has the title and the bobber cut out on the Cameo.
 


I hope that you find some inspiration in these layouts.  Thanks for visiting my blog today and have a wonderful and blessed day!

Christmas Layouts

Good morning!  It's hard to believe that so many stores have been filled with Christmas merchandise and decorations for weeks now!  What happened to Fall and Thanksgiving?  Did I miss them?

I guess that I'm no different, right?  Here are some Christmas layouts I designed for Treasured Memories last time I was there.
 




Be inspired and get ready to scrap those lovely family pictures!  Have a wonderful and blessed day!

Our Story

Good morning!  Here is a layout that I custom made for a client for photos of her 30th wedding anniversary.  She wanted yellow and blues because that was the colors they had chosen for the decorations at their anniversary celebration.
