Girls in Pittsburgh

This past weekend Tracy, Mandy and I made the long trek to Pittsburgh to have an all out girls weekend with Heather.  I had a FABULOUS time.  I love getting together with the girls.  We laughed till we cried several times. Truth be told not much scrap booking got done, but hey we got some photos to scrap!


First up dinner and drinks in downtown Pittsburgh.  Bar Louie.

Crate Paper Blog Hop!!

Hey everybody!  Welcome to the Autumn Crate Paper blog hop!


Blog hop
Tis the season for being thankful.  Today I am sharing a tag I made about how thankful I am to have a creative job.  Both in my spare time and my "real" time.  One of my favorite embelishments are paper rosettes.  I added a spin to mine by making this one into a sort of a prize ribbon.


Cratetag-chesnick
Now for the awesome hop details! What you need to do is visit the Crate Paper blog for your instructions.  My slice of the hop is located up on the right hand sidebar!  If the hop in general just isn't fun enough, you have the chance to win a $100 giftcard to Scrapbook.com! 


Enjoy, Happy Hopping & Good Luck!!

Welcome November!

25 days till Thanksgiving.  Oh me oh my! Let's start this month off kids with the usual projects! Starting with it's Recipes week over at the AC Blog.  Stop by and check out my Recipe Book!


 Crate Paper


I made this using the Brook Collection.  While the embies lead you to believe it is a girlie birthday line I think it's quite lovely for a masculine layout.
