Hi everyone, by the skin of my teeth, here is my Get Picky layout for the first half of February, with this challenge you have to take inspiration from the lyrics of a great song.....this is Nate with a friend Alexa, this is before she started school this year so he hasn't seen her for a while.
This is my entry for Show us your stuff Challenge Blog, I used the gorgeous papers from The Nook February Kit, and I made the purple buttons with bling inside and the heart in the bow centre. This is a friend Elsa who comes to our Tuesday Morning ladies' Group, she is a big kid at heart and Nate loves her.
Michelle sent me the ingredients to make SMORES and this weekend I tried them, super yum, totally fattenning.....but the marshmallows she sent actually expand and are super delicious...thanks Shell, I feel I have tried a little of your culture....how are you so slim I ask?.
Tomorrow I am going over to Cathy Cafun's, wonder if we'll get any scrapping done. Hope you all have a fantastic week. Love Melxx

Hello there my friend;0) Great LO's! Love all the detail and love the hints of purple in the second LO.
My kids love smores. I am not much of a marshmallow person, so I do not really do the smores thing. But everytime we go to the beach I have to buy the stuff to make them for the kids.
Hope you are having a great weekend! We have a three day this weekend for Presidents Day and boy I really need it!
A friend of mine, her kids and me and my kids are going to the movies tomorrow to see Gnomeo and Juliet. I heard it was cute and they have been wanting to see it. What are your plans with Nate this weekend? Hope the two of you are doing well;0) Take care and we will chat soon.
Your friend xx

Hey there Mel, love all that masking/misting on the first, and your clock details, so cool! And the second, loooooove those papers! I am debating over the Nook subscription, I would really love to get one, maybe I'll ask tomorrow on Valentine's Day. I agree that the pic of you eating the smore is just awesome! Definitely needs to be preserved on a scrapbook page! And it's funny, 'cause we were just talking about smores last night! Anyway, just pulled off one the best birthday party of Ailis's young life, and now I'm aching for some scrappy time, so off I go!
Gorgeous LO's!!
Really love the masking on the first one and the fussy cut details on the 2nd one!!
Adore the picture with tickers and Nate and the lady Ellie use to do that too!
I just adore that picture of you eating the smore!!
Did you add chocolate to it?
I'm not skinny I weight 165 at 5'9 so I need to loose 10 ibs!!
I dont eat much sweet and I exercise a little each week but not enough.
I dont like smores that much just a little but dd and dh loves them!!
So glad you liked them does Nate like them?
Hope you have a fabulous week!
Love & hugs to you both!
Aww, what little cuties! I love your backgrounds :)
As always, just awesome creations! Love the masked background on the first layout and bold colours! And love how you used the purples in the second layout! :)
Have a fabulous week ahead!
