The Day the Ice Melted

The strangest thing happened during hockey playoffs this year. Something like this has never happened in twelve years of me "hockey-momming". The zamboni came out in between periods and melted the ice away...

You know you are a scrapbooker when you are thinking *I will need to document this* even as it is happening.

The end result was that the game needed to be replayed another day at another arena.

Downhill ski layout with help from a sketch

This layout is of my son taking a downhill ski lesson. He was nervous about the whole barreling down a mountain/hill on skis thing... So we paid for private lessons for both kids. At the end of the day, it was worth every penny. They went from scared to confident and I have the pictures to prove it. The pictures turned out nicely even though they are from a cell phone. I accidentally brought an empty camera bag to the ski hill that day. *smacking head*

In trying to catch up on scrapbooking layouts, I have been making quick layouts with less Cricut cuts. I find a sketch makes it much quicker to put a layout together. This sketch is by Diana.

Thanks for stopping in!

Downhill skiing layout with Echo Park

My son was reluctant to try downhill skiing for the first time. These photos are from his first time skiing.

This layout uses all Winter Park paper by the Echo Park Paper Company. It was a quick one to put together with all the great little paper add-ons like the tickets and journaling spots (I covered the children's names). The title on this layout is cut from the new Go Canada Cricut cartridge, I figured that would be an appropriate font for a winter layout...

I am entering this layout at SOUS. I am a big fan of this challenge site and would like to participate a bit more this year. Secondly, I am submitting at Cooking with Cricut. Their challenge this week is to create a project based on an amazing winter photograph.
