What I'm working on

This is my NEWEST hobby... Taking Suzi Blu's online class and part is learning to draw faces. I have never been able to do a nose till now! At least it's a better one than I could do before. I know she's got flaws because I'm still learning how to paint ... So just overlook those...
I'm reading Breaking Dawn and I think she fits right in!! Green eyes and red lips... Maybe she just had a "bite" ???

Late night

Oh it's hard to get the day started at our place this morning! The fur babies stayed up way past their bedtime and now they are cuddled up on the couch. This is not the normal for them! They hardly ever do this so it's especially sweet to see when they do!
Gonna be a hot one again today with no rain in sight! I've gotta go water a few plants again this morning. It's hard to keep up with all of them.... We have about 16 in the yard along with my flowerbed in the middle- that's not counting the big long ones here in front of the house! It's about 60 feet long by about 6 feet wide! And the roses in the backyard and the garden... Needless to say I HATE TO WATER!!!! But you reap what you sow and I try to remember that when the hatin' starts comin on! It's worth it in the end, I guess. Have a great day!
Happy Scrappin,
Lisa - and Bella And Gracie (as they snooze here beside me)

Swap sneak peek!!!

What is going on?? ALOT!!!

Well these things....
Jessica at Kid's Napping? I'm Scrapping! Is hosting THIS swap!!
The VERY VINTAGE SPRING EPHEMERA  SWAP
I can't wait to see what all goodies come in this one!
I just swapped with Jessica a couple of weeks ago in THIS swap
 .... Speckled Egg has the sweetest swap ideas! The Petite Inspiration Swap - Spring Edition.  I was in this one and another one awhile back. Now being the bad blogger I am I didn't get any pictures of the first one or now this one has gone by and I STILL don't have picts up of this one! BUT I WILL!!
Jessica sent me some of the sweetest things! My other swap partner Cassie also sent me a box of yumminess that I can't wait to show off!

Something else coming soon!!!!!

I participated last year and can't wait to do it again this year! Since last year I've moved from my little "scrap studio" back in to a spare bedroom.  I don't have as much space, but it actually works better for me as I know where everything I need is at! I keep my extra stuff out there and will use it as a crop room for my friends to come and "play" with me! It is still a work in progress out there.. .in here, it is getting much better day by day!

I have an INVITE to come TEACH at SECOND SATURDAY STUDIO from MICAH. I'm just THRILLED beyond WORDS that she would ask!! I'm going to wait for Micah to announce it on her blog first then I'll be here with the details!
So until then, I'll have my feet on the ground, but my head is in the clouds! Oh, almost forgot..............
 
                         IT IS SUMMER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! FINALLY!!!! THE POOL IS UP, THE PICNIC TABLE AND ALL THE LAWN CHAIRS ARE OUT TOO! BRINGING THE BBQ GRILL AROUND ....
NOW IT IS TIME TO LIVE OUTSIDE FOR THE NEXT 3 MONTHS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 
*** CAN YOU TELL I'M A LITTLE EXCITED???*****

HAVE A SCRAPPY DAY!!
