Scrapbooking SOS - is all about why I scrapbook. I scrap for me, my sanity and
for my creativity. Of course, my family benefits from it too.

Liftateers - Year 3, Week #7

I missed out on doing Week #6 But I am working on that one.

Here is my Week #7 - lifted from Jeannie #5377  www.fiskateers.com/community/photo/62321/

I need to finish the title the ink was still tacky-- thinking calling it "Together" and add some doodling to the banner.
When I took this photo I had to add two more family surnames to the list of families at the wedding at relate to my genealogy.
I will update once I finish completely!

Happy Birthday, Trucker!

I needed to make a Birthday card for my Brother-in-Law....but it stumped me.
He is not into anything that I could theme the card around.
Really if he is not on the road, he is working on various projects my Father-in-Law has going.
So, on the road fit especially when I had a stamp set by
Inkadinkado: Road Trip
I had some black ink, my stamp set and some scraps just waiting for a home. I tapered down the black roadway to have it going off into the distance. I found to add my lines to the road before taking the picture. BUT Here is what I created:
