September = SCRAPPY TIME!!!!!

It's September!!! HOW did THAT happen??? Well for many it means back to school. For Steve and I it just means that the main street in front of our house slows to a 15 mph crawl for several hours a day. But it also means that it's SCRAPPY TIME!!! I finally quit my job after wrestling over it for 5 months. And now I'm in scrappy therapy mode. I need it more than I thought I did! Anyway, it's great timing that My Sketch World is hosting their 3rd annual ABC Crop and that Scrapdango is also holding their 3rd annual School's In Crop! So I've taken advantage of my extra time off, dusted off some old papers and pictures and gotten creative!
This layout covers the ABC Crop's A is for Arrows and Scrapdango's Week 1 Computer Core Class Elective challenges. The pictures are my oldest stepson Greg in 1980 or 1981 playing basketball...

Sketch by Lucy Chesna; Cardstock – Bazzill, Patterned Paper – Club Scrap, Junkitz; Photo Corners – Canson; Arrows – Scenic Route; Title cut from Cricut using Cuttin’ Up font; Journaling Font – BRADDON; Stamps – WRMK; Ink – CTMH, Colorbox; Basketball images downloaded from the internet

The next page is for Scrapdango's Week 1 Core PE Class. Again the pics are my oldest stepson. This time he's playing baseball in Ketchikan, Alaska, where there is no grass and they play on dirt. The large baseball paper is part of the Reminisce prize package I won last year.

Patterned Papers – Club Scrap, Reminisce; Title Letters – LD Sweater font printed on cardstock and cut out; Pen – Sharpie; Journaling Letter Stickers – Cosmo Cricket; Photo Corners – Canson

And last but not least I've been working on more wedding pages the past couple of weeks...

My new SIL and her family getting ready for the wedding. I cut out the title block from the swirly paper and doodled around it. The hearts are heat embossed and cut out. The corners are punched with Kreaxions #905 Template B.
Materials – Cardstock – Bazzill; Swirly Paper – Creative Imaginations; Title – MAMBI; Shoe & Flower – K & Company; Stamp – Stampin Up; Embossing Powder – Ranger; Ink – Versamark; Pen – Sakura Gel Roll; Punch – Kreaxions.





I'll be scrapping almost every day so be on the lookout for more pages!!! Better yet, come join me at Scrapdango or My Sketch World (the links are on the sidebar) and have some scrappy fun yourself!!!
Happy Scrapping!

Fabulous work Ginni!
Glad you quit your job, you didn't need all that stress and it is great to see your work again.

I see I missed you and Bev on Skype:(

Enjoy your weekend!
