Hey Scrappy Friends!
I hope you are just feeling blessed and enjoying every part of today!
I have a layout for you from one of the most talked about favorite new collections from Close To My Heart 2014 Idea book – Lollydoodle!
I decided Jena needed a layout of her in her “Repreztel” (Repunzle) dress – you can hear the story about the dress in the video – but I LOVED the “Always wear your invisible crown” stamp that is exclusive to this Workshop on the Go kit! It’s so stink in’ girly cute and fun!
These kits are really awesome because it does not matter what level of crafter/scrapbooker you are – you can create beautiful layouts from literal step by step, cut by cut instructions, or freestyle it and create after other inspiration!
The “app” I used to create little inspiration sketches from the hospital is called Phonto. I also use A Beautiful Mess from time to time to layer up different color shapes and create ideas when I’m “bored” or can’t move – like on bed rest or hooked up to hospital monitors! LOL (Update on baby situation below video)
There is still time to enter to win the Cricut Cartridge bundle so don’t forget to do that and pass it on!
Baby Update:
Everything is all in all going really well! It’s really a guessing game completely as to what is actually happening! My contractions have spread out, though I’m still having them daily. He’s fully engaged and in position, but nothing is progressing right now! They have helped with contractions by providing me with decent hours of quality rest by sleeping pills every few nights….not something I like doing at all, but something that has made a HUGE difference for me. Resting as much as possible, basically allowed up to get kids to and from school and I’m getting more and more help with that these days. Baby is not due until March 26th according to the first ultrasound, according to MY body “schedule” he is due March 6th. They had the goal of March 1st keeping him in, now moved to February 20th with the Positive Fetal Fiber Nectin test – not a test I was familiar with before this pregnancy at all….and several tests before it where negative – sooooo basically that tests tells them he could come as early as the next week or hang out for the duration – all depends on contractions. I go into Labor and Delivery for regular stress tests and monitoring just to see how strong those contractions really are and the effects they have on little mans heart and such. All in all we are very blessed and thankful, its just been a bit trying and I hate “not knowing” and being able to prepare better for other kids and so many other things that I just have to give over control of. I just want to express once again in words how thankful I truly am for all your love, prayers and support right now! They are incredibly wonderful gifts to me! I’m so humbled by every message and card you’ve sent! Thank you from the bottom of our hearts!
You guys are awesome!
Enjoy the Moments!
Your baby princess looks adorable! I understand the not knowing part being difficult. I know you are a woman who know the Word and trusts in the Lord. God has a plan for you and He is with you!

Thank you for all of your hard FUN work.

Love the colors and patterns of this paper and the chevron heart. Very sweet layout. The kids will enjoy the story of how you all ran to the store quick and ended up getting photos taken. They will treasure it! Thank you for the post; always enjoy your videos!
I love your layout and I love that paper set, I am hoping to be able to buy some soon. I am happy the contractions have spread out for you. Thinking about you and your little man. Lots of prayers and hugs sent your way.
Love it! And love the paper pak.
A beautiful Princess in a beautiful layout, making memories to share with the new baby.
I love this paper!! If you knew me you (or anyone else) would not know that I like girly girl stuff but I do. I don’t know why I don’t show that side of myself to others. LOL I guess it is a side of me that is just mine.
Very cute layout, very cute girl.
I will say lots of prayers for you and your little baby..
God bless you all
Your family is beautiful 🙂
Seems like this lil peanut is just not ready and just wants you to hang out for a bit longer. So, Hang in There!
Very Pretty litte girl and she has a very pretty layout for that dress. Get some Rest Megan, I was always told Real life before anything else, Scrapbooking can wait we all love you and wish you and the new baby and of course the other two children.
Hey Megan!
Just wanted to let you know with the CTMH stamps you need to condition them before you use them by wiping them on your arm or hand, the oil from your body will take off the sheen of the top layer of the stamp and this will condition your stamp. Also the cushion spongy thing that comes with the stamp set…if you put your paper your are going to stamp on top of it you will get a cleaner stamp image without any voids. Welcome to the CTMH family!
