My New "Do"

Happy August! As this month has rolled in I have had a scrapbooking craze. I made several pages that I will be sharing here over the next several days.

This first one is about my new hair style. I wanted to do a series of pages on my hair. Deciding to wear my hair naturally curly was a big step and surprisingly emotional.  My hair is so thick and long so I was nervous how my hair would respond with no blow driers or other heat tools. But I watched several videos and I gave it a try. So get ready to see lots of pics of me smiling and happy. :)

I loved hand cutting the flowers from some patterned paper I had and also, using the colored paper clips.  The background paper looks like a corkboard and I want it to look like I pinned these pictures on the board.





This is my first day right before I washed my hair.

This was the first day with my new curly hair.

Loved putting my journaling in this little envelop.

I painted these letters and then added some glitter glue on top. Love it!

Hope you enjoyed and stop by later this week for more scrapbook pages.

  1. I love your hair but I never saw how much hair you have! I know a few ladies who would kill for your hair! Your page is wonderful-and love that treatment to the letters.

  2. Look at you! I agree with Cindy as I never really saw your hair, or maybe you had it tied up. Anyway, it's beautiful and your new do is so pretty! Love your pages and can't wait to see more!

Soul Sistah Painting

I love trying new things in art. It is like an adventure and a hearty challenge. So after I saw this picture of the soul singer Ledisi, I just had to try it. Love the dark eye shadow and the head tilted. So dramatic! When I first tried adding the blue eye shadow to my painting it looked cool to me. But when I had my hubby look at it he nicely told me the blue I did made her eyes look hollow! LOL! So I went back and added a lighter blue and that did it! So here are some pictures showing the progression of my version of Ledisi. Thanks for stopping by! Have a super day.

My Birthday Blog Party

Welcome to my Birthday Blog Party! I am starting my celebration early to fully enjoy my day. My actual birthday is May 29th but why not start early right? :) When I think of birthdays past, they were always such exciting times for me. Many of my birthdays were celebrated with fun parties from my childhood to my young adult years. I loved all of those special parties and to this day, I still love it. Maybe this is where my love for event planning all started. At my 3rd birthday, my parents gave me a big one. I don't really remember but the pictures are so cool. I had lots of kids there, a clown, a little merry-go-round ride and lots of games. I had a white little outfit on and was looking so cute for a Spring party. Boy, I looked so happy! Also, I was brave not to be afraid of the clown, too. My mom was holding me as I blew the candles out. Another year, I had my first slumber party. That was so fun! I invited several friends and a cousin. It was so great to have m
