Ladies-Warm up Your Mouse

I hope you have your party hats. It is time to start this rockin' birthday party! We are kicking off our birthday month with speed scraps every Friday and Saturday during the month of June. Each challenge will be hosted by a member of the Jessica Sprague Creative Team. Our first speed scrap is tonight at 9pm EDT followed by round 2 tomorrow (Saturday) at 12pm EDT.

We hope to see you there.

Black Spots??

Connor went on a field trip this week to the fire station.  He had a question for the firemen. “Do you have a dog with black spots?”  They didn’t but we learned that in the old days, when horses pulled the fire trucks, dogs were used to protect the horses. The Dalmatian would take up position just off the side and towards the rear of a horse and run with them.

I made this page for my first ever speed scrap Thursday night at ScrapMatters.  It was fun and what a quick method to made a page.  I used Haynay’s, My Magical Place.  You can find this wonderful kit at ScrapMatters.

Thanks for stopping by.

The kids were having such fun playing in Laurie and Terry’s backyard.
