"Hoppy Easter" Everyone!

It may be Easter Saturday, but we had our Easter Breakfast with the family, and then did our annual Easter Egg Hunt, only this year, because of the pouring down rain, we chose the local theatre to hunt, where everything was INDOORS ! !

Even though it is raining today, Mother Nature is just doing her "Spring Cleaning" . . . and  it looks like Spring is actually going to make the move to show up!!

I'd like to take this opportunity to wish all of you a joyous Easter and remind you to Thank God/Jesus for all this Holy Holiday has meant to all mankind.
  . . . andhave a  "hoppy  easter . . . "

A last minute entry . . . I had these Layouts almost complete, so I just had to finish them with titles and journalling . . .

These are Layouts of the photos we took when we were at

The Fountain in Forsyth Park.

The flowers were beautiful and very fragrant.

It's beginning to look a lot more like Spring, FINALLY ! !

I spent the better part of the weekend scrapping and ALSBing . . .
And I need to keep going on my vacation scrapbook project,
mainly because I am planning on following it with a catch-up on the grandkids books . . . all, long overdue!

But in the mean time, here are a few of the Layouts that I have made of our recent trip to Savannah, Georgia, with our friends Bob and Linda.

We visited Tybee Island, on a beautifully sunny day. towards the end of our stay. Even though the temperatures weren't the greatest, it was certainly much better than up here in "The Northland"!

The first pair of double Layouts are of our visit to The Lighthouse and Museum on Tybee Island . . .

 

Then as we were winding down our tour of Tybee Island, we stopped for a "little dinner" . . . Island style . . . The Crab Shack. This place was really great! We had a huge tray of boiled treats, like; two kinds of crab, shrimp, crayfish (crawdads), clams, some boiled potatoes, small cobs of corn, and some spicy sausages. We ordered the servings for three, hoping it would be enough and we ended up barely making it through it! (we did leave some of the sausage . . .)

We also played on the grounds outside the restaurant . . . pictures with HUGE gators, some real baby gators, and even one that Kent could wrestle . . . fake, or course . . . 

 

 

So this brings my cumulative count to :

Today it is darned cold!
I believe the last time I checked, it was -13 degrees windchill!
It makes for a good day to stay inside and get some crafting done!!

Yesterday I spent the day re-organizing multiple scrapbooks,
entering past layouts from previous PSL (professional scrapbooking league)
and then actually scrapping!

I know I have a LONG WAY to catch up to Sister Lynn, . . .  
but I wonder if I have more completed ALSBs to fill . . .
and maybe a possiblity of catching up !

These are four doupble LOs that I completed and added to cumulative chart;

This is an updated count including the ALCM card I made on the 14th,
I have made two more cards, one for the Birthday Card Swap at Club Scrap.
(I am always experimenting with cardmaking and will might not put them in
this count of papercrafting . .. )

Wow!
So much going on, I can hardly believe that it has been a month since I last posted !

The end of February, beginning of March we "escaped Wisconsin"
to spend a few days in Savannah, Georgia. I am working on downloading photos,
so those will be coming soon!

In the mean time, I made a few cards ;
These 11 cards were made using the Club Scrap Kit called Tie Die, from
January, 2003.
Some of the Layouts for these cards were taken from the Club Scrap kit
Up, Up, and Away (February, 2013).
These are called  Assembly Line Card Making  (ALCM).
I used a number of different stamps from my Club Scrap Unmounted Stamps,
from several different kits. 

 



**As I work on downloading and printing the photos from our Georgia trip, I am getting into the competitive mode, to start back into little competition I have with my Sister Lynn, in AZ.
She is miles and miles ahead of me in this little race, but I plan on getting back into the race !
Love you Sis !
