Hi! I’m Anne and I work FT in the Human Services field. I’m married with a blended family of 6 girls (23 to 16) and 1 puppy. When I’m not having a panic attack about it, I am so honored to be a guest designer at STM. I started scrapping 7 or 8 years ago with Creative Memories stickers. I’ve been involved with blogs and challenges for a little over a year – STM was the very first blog challenge I played along with. I am now totally addicted to sketches and design team reveals. Left to my own devices all my pages start looking the same! I don’t know that I have a style – eclectic I guess. I try to match a style to the person’s album that I am working on; or if it’s for me it depends on the emotion of the page/event. For example, the page I created for the current challenge/DD-2’s album is a totally different look than a similar page I made for DD-1’s album. Different colors and different looks to suit different tastes and personalities.

And now, ON TO OUR NEXT CHALLENGE!!!!!
It's time once again for a movie-inspired song! This time around we are paying tribute to the inspiring movie "The Blind Side," by featuring the theme song - "Chances Are" by Five for Fighting! We found this beautiful song had so many possibilities for scrapping (as evidenced by the variety of different directions our design team took it!) and we hope you feel the same way!
Here we go with the design team layouts for "Chances Are..."

My husband's Mother past away about 2 and a half weeks ago. His Mom had remarried after his Dad died. Clarence can never replace my husband's Dad, but he is still family now that both of his parents are gone and he is our daughter's only surviving Grandparent.

I am truly one of the lucky ones to have known my big sister, Cathy.

It was that picture, that fits for me perfect with the line "filled with shells and sand."

"Is there a better bet than love?"
My inspiration were the words "nothing lasts forever". I had to think of the pictures of my dear grandson immediately. One moment kids are angry or crying and the next moment they laugh out loud, don´t they ? That´s what my journaling says.
I went to a fight and a hockey game broke out!!! My beloved Los Tiburones have made it to the Stanley Cup Playoffs every year since I started watching ice hockey, but they never manage to make it all the way through to the final round and win the cup! It takes a little luck, but it definitely takes speed, skill, grace & mayhem!!! LOL!!! How fitting that “Five for Fighting” refers to the 5 minute penalty a player gets for participating in an altercation… They’re droppin’ the gloves!!!
