I am a HUGE believer in the saying... It takes a village. Not just to raise a child... but for everything. I travel in packs, because the people I choose to surround myself with make me a better me (and I can use ALL the help I can get).
When I have a problem, I turn to my peeps. (do people still say peeps???) And when my blog posting needed some help... I decided... it takes a village!
So this week you will meet my Scrappy peeps. They are part of my village and they are going to be regular bloggers for Scrappy Boutique. But today... you will meet ME.
- Name your favorite scrapbook companies:
I am a girly girl. I am a mom to a girly girl. So I love anything girly. My favorite companies are BasicGrey, My Minds Eye, October Afternoon and Prima (if I have to only name a few!). But one of my ALL time favorite lines was the recent line Follow Your Heart from My Minds Eye. Another favorite line is a blast from the past with Cosmo Cricket Dutch Girl!!
- Describe your style:
I am a self proclaimed mess... and so is my scrapbooking. I am all sorts of styles. (I might want to explore that one day)
- What are your fave pictures to scrapbook?
I am 100% in love with my 10 year old daughter and LOVE scrapbooking pictures of her. And I have an amazing husband who doesn't get in as many pages as Sophie... but I LOVE scrapbooking him as well. I also REALLY love scrapbooking all of my family (I made a favorite mini-album for my 16 year old niece to make sure she knew how awesome I think she is). But one of my all time absolute FAVs is to scrapbook everyday life. Those are the moments I want to remember.
Oh my gosh!!! Who would ever be so cruel as to make me choose??? But if I had to choose... I think paper? No... embellies. No... paper. Okay paper - but please don't make me choose!
- Words to live by:
I love pinning quotes on pinterest. They just make me happy. But if I had to pick words to live by, I would have to say... There is always, always, always something to be grateful for.
- Name 1 thing you miss about being a kid:
Hostess snack cakes! (is that wrong of me????)
- Name 1 thing you love about being an adult:
Telling my mom that I don't know how she did it... and when people tell me I am just like my mom, I couldn't be more proud.
- What's your favorite song of the moment?
I am so bad with song titles and lyrics. I am known for belting out whatever words come to mind (Britney Spears "On My Radar", I sing "Operator"). Anyway... I just recently learned that Michael Buble sings a version of our wedding song Crazy Love. <3
- What's your favorite thing to do on a Sunday afternoon?
I love days where I can relax, de-compress, veg out and spend time with family. I, of course, love to scrapbook on Sundays.
- What's your favorite animal?
We have a Puggle. My first dog ever. And although I tell her she is bad to the bone (because she is)... I simply looooooooove her!!
