Happy Tuesday!!
Hope everyone is having a fabulous week so far! The weather has been so incredible and it has been so nice just getting out and enjoying the hot summer days!
I haven't been teaching too much and I have to say I have been missing all of you girls, where is everyone, tell me what you have been doing all summer!!
For those of you that are in my tin album class, make sure you get your photos done, before you know it the class will be here! I am working on my photos right now so hopefully by the end of next week I will have it done and at the store!

Some of you probably know that i am starting another Shabby Chic class in September, so if you haven't signed up yet make sure you do!

I wanted to share some photos from the last little bit bit.... just a couple of favorites!

Just a few photos that make me happy!!

Hope you all have a fabulous day!!

Holy Moley!!!
ok I am not even gonna go there.... no excuses, it is what it is....
Busyness.... plain and simple! lol

On a lighter note I have been workin on my class for next week, "days of our lives" and i am so excited about it! who would have thought, a fun little tin can, a cute mini album in it and a whole weeks worth of memories.... all about you....
Imagine 20 30 or 40 years from now when someone is looking through that little album... makes me giddy just thinkin about it! I would love to come across something like that! what a  treasure it would be!
I promise to post some little sneak peeks in a day or two so that you all can get excited too! well the ones that are taking the class anyways! And Lori got the rest of the tins in so i can teach it! Yayyyy!

Not sure about all of you but summer seems to be fading away fast and it really makes me sad! i don't want to wish it away either....
take lots of photos, capture all those great memories..... i have to say I am a bit guilty of not picking up my big camera I have been using my phone but it is just so darn handy and takes some fabulous pics too!
I also wanted to share an album that is a work in progress.... a while back I got a box in the mail and it was some Donna Downey product! I was so excited! However because of the cares of life and just being too darn busy i just didn't get it done for awhile. I have however finished the cover of the album and I love it! I am slowly working on the inside pages but it is all about the girls and summertime so won't be totally done it for a little bit yet....

and a few shots from summer so far....

Hope you all have a fantastic week!

How can you tell its summer?NEGLECT....

there is no other way to describe it....and I do feel bad however I do get over it.... fast....lol

Seriously though....

it is bad.... however it has been really busy.... like I wasn't busy before but for some little tiny 2 year old reason I am busier lets just put it that way....

Good thing she is cute....

I did teach my happiness project today though and it was a fabulous class... especially this afternoon, there was a lot of creative energy goin on.... it was awesome!

and I totally didn't take a picture and the book is at the store.... K  i promise as soon as I get back there I will take and post a picture! Have to say I love it...  Love the class, Love the ladies that are taking it, although i know it has been highly stressful for some of you! For the record me too....

 On that note....
Lori launched her Iphone app yesterday and it is awesome! I think you will all love it....
go to Itunes and type in scrapbook inc..... and  just buy it.....you will love it!

It feels like our lives have been busy lately with birthday parties for all the kidlets and of course Sharla and Cody too....
We had supper and sort of celebrated Kades birthday on Tuesday... cute little dude turned 4... seriously where the last 4 years went I don't know....

 Kianna just turned 2.... and Miss Ellas birthday is next... then Cole....They are all so sweet! so hard to believe sometimes how fast the year goes....

Until next time,

Lynn

I feel neglectful again....
and the summer is just starting! lol oh well i do know that we are all busy and we have been really busy the last little while....
i am hoping though to see some of you at the pizza party on the 30th.....
I was going to post my album for this time around and forgot that I didn't take a photo of it yet so when I am back at the store i will do that and get it uploaded for you all to see....
i really love how it turned out....
On that note i came acrosss a photo that Shar must have taken that  will post...
It is straight out of the camera no editing at all! Imagine that but for some reason all of my actions on my photoshop are gone.... yep just gone.... haven't had a chance to look for them yet either so i will leave you all with this...

Kianna and Ella.... they are so cute!!!!
Until next time!

Lots of fun techniques on this one... and what better way to wrap up the season... the title for this layout is
"to be continued"
cause we all know that there is still history to document....still moments to be recorded... still phots to be taken.....
 the moments of our lives.....
that by the way is the title for the next shabby Chic class.....
Speaking of that there is a sign up sheet for the next class!

I wanted to post layout #17 before the weekend got away on me...

Sharla got another fabulous picture of Manda and Kianna! Love it a lot!
How has everyone been? My Shabby chic 5 will be coming to an end in a few weeks, i can hardly believe it... and I know i will be in withdrawal again for the summer! I am planning a couple of things at the store for the summer but not too much.... No one really likes to be inside over the beautiful summer days and I can't say I blame them! Enjoy your weeekend everyone and get out and enjoy it....

Until next time,

Lynn
