Zip Line Excursion

Here is a layout I did of my Zip Line excursion while in Riviera Maya, Mexico.  It was my least favorite excursion.  I am deathly afraid of heights.  Why I agreed to go on this I dont know!!  I bawled like a baby 2 times and was so glad when it was over.  You see once you leave the first post there was no way of getting down.

Everyday Paper Dolls for the trees and chickens
Old West for the girl
Black embroidery thread for the line. 
Pop dotted the trees trunk, girl and chickens for deminsion.

Fun in the Sun

Here is a layout I did of my Jet Ski excursion from my trip to Riviera Maya, Mexico.  I had so much fun on this excursion.  By far my favorite.  We rode jet skis and would stop to snorkle jump back on the jet ski and rode to another spot that we would tie up to to snorkle some more. 


Recipe:
Create A Critter for the sun.  Added Peachy Keen Stamp for the face and pop dotted for dimension.
Hello Kitty font for the title.
ZooBalloo for the waves.  Pop dotted the top layer of waves for dimensionimension.

Baby Album

Here is my first baby album I made a friend for her baby shower. I made the whole thing with only buying the album and adhesive. I have way too many scrapbooking supplies and have challenged myself not to buy anything for a month. I have one week left. I did join a stamp club a week ago...forgetting about the challenge. :( Oh well one mess up isnt bad. LOL I had a left over pack of baby boy paper from a calendar I had made for my grandson. Thanks for looking.

New Orleans Saints Cross

I ventured away from scrapbooking in this project. My daughter's boyfriend is a huge Saints fan. I had ordered these crosses back in September and just couldnt get motivated until his birthday came around. I was so afraid of messing it up but I think it turned out pretty good. He loved it! That made me feel good :).
