my little box of happy:)

let me introduce you to my box of paper scraps. 

are you like me and ALWAYS order at least one duplicate of your digital pages?

i do it all the time.

a little 8.5x11 hybrid page.

made this little lollipop flower to fill in some space and give the page some dimension.

a hodge*podge of SU, basic grey and bazzill CS.

i LIKE it:)

one 12x12 = 9 pictures.

frugal = cheap and i have become the world's cheapest scrapper:)

after years and years and years of hoarding and accumulating i decided that enough was enough.

one huge purge and a lot of small de-cluttering fixes, i am left with a hodgepodge of stuff that i am determined to use because, well...i can:)

this is one of those type of pages.

i went thru ALL of my kids' birthdays that were already printed and triaged like CRAZY!

most are in project life page protector that i will eventually get embellished, some i chucked all-together and there were some that were put into my little box of library of memories pictures.

i had nine pictures that i wanted to make sure were on a single 12x12.

figuring out how to out them together on a 12x12.

finishing the page. i added a strip of SU paper, some tags and letter stickers.

i am forgoing the journaling because i really don't have much to say about that day (my brain is swiss cheese these days).

and that is that:)

ohhhhhhhh yeahhhhhhh.

i loved this time:)

feeling a little nostalgic today:( 

i miss this little boy and i miss the girls and the house is so so so empty.

a new page....say WHAT?

yay! a page for me.

it has been a stressful week and it looks like it will get even worse....but we will get through it. we always do:)

papers and elements are from mscraps beach party blog train(freebie)

RE-DO!!!!!!!

well, sort of:)

the girls are going back to school, so i am putting all things scrap together in one place.

and the winner is ZOE'S ROOM:)

she has my desk now, so i took over just a little teeny,tiny amount of space in her room.

we ALL use the desk so that has to b cleaned immediately after someone works there.

my 2 containers of pictures to scrap are in one corner and my 12x12 paper is on the other side of the desk.

everything i own is in some type of square of rectangular container.

95% of them live on top of zoe's bookcase.

the paper corner

 8.5x11 in a wire file basket

12x12 boxes of punches and scissor-y stuff.

and my picture prints. i have not printed anything except the odd enlargement for about three years since going digital.

and that is tour of my ultra-sleek, minimalistic corner of the world:)

file one more memory away:)

i used karla d's new freebie papers plus a freebie title and template:)

just getting thru these pages verrrryyyyy slooooowwwwllllllyyyyyyy:)

i am slowlyyyyyyy going thru my pictures and taking the scrappage easy.
