Nancy's Noteworthy News

OH NO!!! PLEASE don't tell me it has been TWO MONTHS since I updated!!! Where DOES the time go!!
Well for one thing, I spent a month at my sweet granddaughter's house in North Carolina. Her hubby needed surgery and I helped out with my two precious little great-grandchildren. Everything went very well, and Dave is on the mend.
Then it seems when I got home, there was just so much to catch up on. But I think I'm there now!

We had a horrible scare around here yesterday. My 4 year old grandson and the 6 year old neighbor girl decided to see what Oleander leaves tasted like. Now for those that don't know, they are very poisonous!! Fortunately Maggie's mother found out and called 911. They send an ambulance and immediately gave them charcoal. Poor Cohen, he fought me tooth and nail!! He was NOT getting into that ambulance!!! Poor guy was so scared. Anyway, all is well. It seems the green leaf Oleander is not as potent as the yellow leaf one. THAT one is deadly!!! Needless to say, there are three holes in our yard where the bushes USE to be!!!

I am busier than ever with my scrapping!! And there are two GREAT crops on the horizon. Now the first one is tomorrow night over at www.scrapadilly.com. Yep, the Friday Night Boredom Fighters are BACK!!!! AND----along with some GREAT prizes!! A great kit from our friend, Drea, who runs the show (she is awesome with these Boredom Fighter crops!)---and then our good friend Robin B (mad scrapper designs) is adding one of her kits as a prize, and then our buddy Allison Copes has donated the July issue of the So Sketchy! Subscriber as a prize!! THANK YOU Robin and Allison!!! You're the GREATEST!

Now, starting on July 1st over at www.theshakerbox.com, another GREAT crop is starting and THIS one runs for TWO WEEKS!! Be sure to go over there and check out all the details. This will be a hum-dinger!!!!

There is also a lot happening over at www.treasurestoscrap.com! There is ALWAYS a lot happening over there!! Check out those awesome Treasure Chests in the digi store. AND did you know that it is sale day EVERY DAY over there? Yep, 35 % off, EVERY DAY!!! So check out these great sites!!!!

OK, so what have I been doing? Well I will upload a few of my latest creations! I just love the "Hold My Hand" one. That is my granddaughter's hubby with my two sweet great-grandchildren. For this I used a variety of Rick Evans kits ---- love how you can combine his kits together!! I used: "My Grandmother", "Cherish Dream Live", "All About Family", "Happiness of Being", and "Girls Just Wanna"


"Mommys Are Fun" was done for a color challenge over at Scrapadilly. I snapped photos of granddaughter playing with the kids. I used a bunch of kits by my buddy Robin B (mad scrapper designs) including Frame (color changed) from "Hidden Treasures", Black Paper from "Contempo Retro Papers", Green Paper from "Hey Hey Baby"' Everything else from "Adventures in Fun"

OK, now I gotta explain "Get Up and Go". Treasures to Scrap is 3 years old and we are having all kinds of great challenges over there. Come and check it out!! Anyway, this layout was done for the "Gunny Sack Race". We had to do a lyrics layout about how we felt on our last birthday!! Yeah, the lyrics to THIS song says it all!!!! I used two of Dawn Inskip's delightful kits called "Pets" and "New Beginnings".

Well, thats about it for now. Hope you have enjoyed seeing my work. I promise I will NOT let two months pass by again!!! Thanks for looking!!!! (((((HUGS)))) to you all !!!
