Sweet!
Guess what I found in my mailbox this afternoon?
And guess what was in it?
Every jot & tittle! I actually knew this was coming but didn’t want to spread the word too far for fear it might not happen. It’s just a little mention but exciting none the less! It’s especially cool because Domino is my favorite magazine (ever since Blueprint went away) and it’s the first non-scrapbooking magazine ej&t’s been featured in.
So, yay for me :) Thanks to everyone for your support, I appreciate you all!
Now that I have been back from vacation for almost a week, I need to get to work! But it seems as though things keep slowing me down. First, we returned home to water in our basement (the first time since we moved in 2 1/2 years ago… so totally unexpected) which wouldn’t have been a big deal except that is where I keep my work office. So everything had to be removed so we could take up the soaking wet carpet. Bummer. I still haven’t put everything back because then I ended up getting sick, something I have been somehow putting off (in Oregon everyone seemed to be sick, including Jason, but not me! And then I get home and get sick although I can’t complain because I’d rather be sick now than while on vacation.). So, I have been taking it easy and recuperating which means my brain is working while my body isn’t and I end up getting lots of ideas and by the time I’m feeling better I will be trying to do everything at once and probably will overdo it. At least that is what I usually do.
Okay enough rambling :) I will leave you with a couple of scans of some scrapbook pages I made for my little nephews for Christmas. As mentioned in previous posts, when a niece or nephew (so far I’ve only had nephews) is born, for their first Christmas I give them a scrapbook with a title page and a baby page and then every year I give them a page for their birthday so when they are 18 they will have a full scrapbook! This year my brother and sister-in-law added two more babies to the mix: Oliver, who was born in March, and Noah, whom they adopted in July. So for Christmas I was busy :) Also, Noah’s 1st birthday was technically in December so I scrapbooked an extra page for him. Here they are:
Noah’s title page
On the title page I always leave room for a small picture from every year to be added thus the blank spaces.

Hopefully, I will have more to share once I’m feeling better!
Hello, and welcome to my little blog! What started out as a blog to show some of my scrapbook pages ended up being a blog that shows all of my projects, ranging from scrapbooking to decorating to sewing to photography. I also run a little online shop called

Yay! Love the new nephew pages and love the fact that you are in Domino this month! Amazing! Congratulations! Love you!
Congrats on the Domino piece. You inspire me with the scrapbooking, just need you a little closer. Sorry about the flood and the flu bug. Hope you are feeling better, so good to see you guys!
Love,

Kel, those pages turned out so well! Those boys are so cute. Congratulations on the magazine! I am so excited, I even looked for it when I went to Borders but it wasn’t on the shelf yet. I’ll have to go in again. Missing you already.
Love the pages and SO EXCITED for you about the magazine. Sad I didn’t get to see you guys when you were here.:( We were so busy and things have been a little tumultuous with the fabulous four. Hope you are feeling better.
A star in the family!!!! Congratulations! Can’t wait to get the magazine – hopefully tomorrow.
Sorry to hear about the basement and the flu – what a welcome home!
Missing you already!
That is super fantastic! Congrats! Domino is one of my fave mags. And ADORE the layouts. Noah’s cheeks just make me want to smother them with smooches! Who can resist baby cheeks?!
