Where I've been...

In here 
















(sorry for crappy photo of only part of the room but my camera card & computer have a love hate relationship right now and decided not to work for me).


some of you remember I had my own scraproom when we moved to the new house it was a pretty space. It was on the American Crafts blog last month you can see the post HERE. Well over Labor Day weekend Mr.K and I decided to do a little moving around and my scraproom went upstairs & our bedroom came down. I really love the new space even more than the old one. It has a big window and lots more light. I'll share more photos when I can get betters ones during the day. 

Where do you scrap? do you love your space? what would you have in your dream space?

Have a great weekend~MK

This week has been full of ups and downs glad its over. Mav's been having some issues at school,Teagan is on the hormonal rollercoaster,Avery is sick,Mr.K is super busy at work,and me I'm just trying to hold it all together and do what i can for all of them.

I did do something for me today i scrapped while Avery claimed the couch an boy did it help....i created 5 layout yes 5 in less than 4 hours(breaking here and there for Avery and lunch with Mr.K). Get this there's a couple squares(12x12) amongst my rectangles(8.5x11) this month Christine will be proud(its a thing we had a chat at the train station about sizes its a me/her funny thing). So here's a sneak of 1 of the layouts.i don't have photos of the others yet so there will be a CD sneak post next week.

Hope y'all have a great weekend! I'm crossing my finger no one else gets sick in the House of K.

Designing with American Crafts was a dream come true I compare it to that nerdy girl getting asked to the prom by the high school football team quarterback it's one of those things I never thought would happen to me and it did ,it was awesome! I love AC's products and had so much fun creating with them every month. But now it's time for change and change is good right? mix it up a bit and see what next adventure is out there for me. 

Here are a few of my favorites that I created from this past year for AC.
