&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;{I know!! Miracle of miracles!!! I'm actually posting again. But I wouldn't count on very many posts. I'm just WAY too busy to keep up my crafting obsession AND blog about it. Some of my friends have asked how I make nursing covers, so I thought I'd give some photos about how I do it.}

For those not familiar with nursing covers, this is one of the original designs that my pattern is based on.
&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/SdqoLQ74IFI/AAAAAAAAKI8/J8ncmo8YEgE/s1600-h/chocolat_1500.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 400px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/SdqoLQ74IFI/AAAAAAAAKI8/J8ncmo8YEgE/s400/chocolat_1500.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5321750821169799250" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The pattern is fairly simple, it is a rectangle of fabric around 28 inches by 37 inches before hemming. It had boning at the top and straps like an apron to put around your neck.

and in case you don't know what boning is, it usually looks something like this:
&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/Sde-m5M0k7I/AAAAAAAAKI0/w2DwzU8cUTk/s1600-h/White-Bon.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 300px; height: 300px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/Sde-m5M0k7I/AAAAAAAAKI0/w2DwzU8cUTk/s400/White-Bon.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5320931060160435122" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;The only hard part is putting boning in the top of the rectangle. This is what gives you the ability to look down on your baby while staying covered.

&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: center;"&gt;&lt;ol&gt;&lt;li&gt;First, do a rolled hem around the 4 sides of fabric.&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ol&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt; Depending on how thick the boning is, I'll make the hem wide enough for the top of the nursing cover.
&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;
Here's the top of the nursing cover, the boning is the white stiff curled thing above the fabric in this photo.&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/Sde1ywUPXJI/AAAAAAAAKIs/iDpmM93JS_M/s1600-h/sewing+wink+001.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/Sde1ywUPXJI/AAAAAAAAKIs/iDpmM93JS_M/s400/sewing+wink+001.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5320921368329411730" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Then next step is centering the boning at the top of the fabric. Here's the makeshift way I've come up with how to do this.

I cut the boning between 12-18 inches. Then I fold the fabric in half
&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/Sde1ysCniiI/AAAAAAAAKIk/0Gx_65qwC48/s1600-h/sewing+wink+002.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/Sde1ysCniiI/AAAAAAAAKIk/0Gx_65qwC48/s400/sewing+wink+002.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5320921367181756962" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;and fold my boning in half.
&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/Sde1yRK_TUI/AAAAAAAAKIc/f_5kjneRWX8/s1600-h/sewing+wink+003.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/Sde1yRK_TUI/AAAAAAAAKIc/f_5kjneRWX8/s400/sewing+wink+003.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5320921359969111362" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Then I line up the boning middle with the fabric middle to center it.
&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/Sde1xh9SEDI/AAAAAAAAKIU/b2Xk-1PLS2k/s1600-h/sewing+wink+004.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/Sde1xh9SEDI/AAAAAAAAKIU/b2Xk-1PLS2k/s400/sewing+wink+004.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5320921347295154226" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;and pin where the end is.
&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/Sde1xbUwd0I/AAAAAAAAKIM/JcH17PMYeNY/s1600-h/sewing+wink+005.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/Sde1xbUwd0I/AAAAAAAAKIM/JcH17PMYeNY/s400/sewing+wink+005.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5320921345514567490" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Sew a line at the pin to make the boning "stay put".

(I typically use D-rings like most aprons.)

This week, I wanted to post about some yummy treats my friend April and I made last week. After going strawberry picking at a farm, we made some yummy stuff with those berries...and everything we did was REALLY easy to do. The first thing was to do chocolate dipped strawberries. All you do is put a bunch of chocolate chips (we used milk chocolate) into a bowl and microwave it. Make sure that you keep checking the chocolate and stirring it. Stirring will help to melt the chocolate. If  you keep it in the microwave too long, the chocolate could burn, so be sure to keep taking it out and stirring to check if it needs to be in there longer. Here is the fruit of our labors:

The only thing you really need is a dehydrator, and if you're anything like me you can find a kindly neighbor to let you borrow one (thanks Alexis!!) or pick one up for relatively cheaply (Alexis said she saw a cheap one for about $35). Really all you do is wash, hull, and slice the berries to dry the slices.

For the fruit leather, I used the ratio of 2 cups whole strawberries to 1/2 cup unsweetened applesauce. You just spread the mixture onto the solid removable rack that  comes with the dehydrator and turn it on. That easy!! For both dried strawberries and fruit leather, I think I let them dehydrate for about 10-12 hours. &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/SFbC_tR8DEI/AAAAAAAAF9o/15y6qggCQh8/s1600-h/P1010770.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/SFbC_tR8DEI/AAAAAAAAF9o/15y6qggCQh8/s400/P1010770.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5212568018470308930" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;Hope you can try some fun things with strawberries too this year.

Here’s Sol doing what he loves best-finding the book shelf and pulling books down. He loves finding small books and playing with them. Here he found a Japanese hymn book. Somehow books just taste to yummy to him. The bookcase is probably the first thing Sol started to pull himself up on. All those books are just such an incentive to climb up.

even though sol was not even 8 months old, when we went to utah for scrapaway we decided that he needed a haircut. luckily his aunt becca came to utah at the same time as us! she is an excellent hairdresser and a very fun person. she agreed to cut his hair and we went to nanna &amp;amp; papa's house for the haircut. before the haircut, when you pulled sol's hair down, it fell below his nose. poor kid couldn't see anything!
during the whole thing sol was so good. he didn't even wiggle! there were lots of people around to help entertain him. i held sol while aunt becca cut and aunt brandi took the pictures. we saved a little lock of sol's hair. once it was cut no one could believe how blonde he looked. april 7, 2008

For their last dance together (Senior Prom!) they posed before their dates showed up. they really make high school look easy even through all the drama they have had. Both Chelsea and Camie loved their dresses. Camie of course chose something very pink and girly while Chelsea tried to look like a Grecian goddess in her white gown. They seriously have too much fun with each other. who knew that they would eventually get along with each other after all the many fights over the years?

Don't you just feel so nice when you finish a project and it turns out to be half as good as you hoped it would? I'm just glad it's another thing that can be checked off my mental "to scrap" list.

Since we can't actually plant things in the ground, we've got to put them into pots. The one good thing about this is that if it gets cold, it's VERY easy to transport them inside! We've got 3 pots of tomato plants, 3 zucchinis, and 1 very cute pot of strawberries. We're even starting to get a strawberry that is turning red. Thankfully, Johnny usually takes care of the garden outside, and since we are NOT in &lt;st1:state st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:state st="on"&gt;&lt;st1:place st="on"&gt;Utah&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:state&gt;&lt;/st1:place&gt;&lt;/st1:State&gt;, it actually rains here! which means that taking care of the garden is a little less maintenance. Oh look, it's raining right now. Good thing I already took these pics today. It's pouring out there.&lt;/span&gt;

I will be using the white flower. I would make apologies for not posting for a while, but I'm not sure anyone even really pays attention, so I'm not that worried. For this week's new project, here some LO's i did a little while ago. i pulled some pictures from out of the vault (i.e., old shoe box) and decided to paper scrap them. I have got so *much* paper scrap stuff that i really want to use it. It seems like now that all my pics are digital, it's just that much easier to scrap them digitally, so that's where my leanings are. But, I don't want to waste all the cool stuff i've gotten over the years that I really love. so, here are 2 paper lo's. they both have to do with bands I've been in over the years. one is of lemon-ade, a band I was in with Johnny and our friend Mark Sanderson. The other one is of when I went to Nauvoo with my bluegrass band and we decided to build a raft out of driftwood along the Mississippi River just like Huck Finn. (hence the title: {playing} huck finn) hope you enjoy! i really liked doing these lo's.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/SCxMA7AGhHI/AAAAAAAAFbs/9M7JL3cc6iI/s1600-h/S5004180.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/SCxMA7AGhHI/AAAAAAAAFbs/9M7JL3cc6iI/s400/S5004180.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5200615248427910258" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/SCxMAbAGhGI/AAAAAAAAFbk/FoGUf1aNgvc/s1600-h/S5004182.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/SCxMAbAGhGI/AAAAAAAAFbk/FoGUf1aNgvc/s400/S5004182.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5200615239837975650" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/SCxMBrAGhII/AAAAAAAAFb0/fIZsxjXDxfI/s1600-h/S5004183.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/SCxMBrAGhII/AAAAAAAAFb0/fIZsxjXDxfI/s400/S5004183.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5200615261312812162" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7626425163026868119-2628013630128892011?l=shelbyscrafting.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://shelbyscrafting.blogspot.com/feeds/2628013630128892011/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7626425163026868119&amp;postID=2628013630128892011' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7626425163026868119/posts/default/2628013630128892011'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7626425163026868119/posts/default/2628013630128892011'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://shelbyscrafting.blogspot.com/2008/05/new-paper-los.html' title='New Paper LO&apos;s!'/><author><name>Shelby and Johnny Family</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/Swl5gzT6zyI/AAAAAAAAMTQ/l3VUnWXLoOI/S220/johnny-%26-shelby.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/SCxMA7AGhHI/AAAAAAAAFbs/9M7JL3cc6iI/s72-c/S5004180.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7626425163026868119.post-3851117389268321066</id><published>2008-04-30T12:03:00.000-04:00</published><updated>2008-12-08T17:15:07.865-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='sewing'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='baby'/><title type='text'>New Craft Tuesday-er Wednesday?</title><content type='html'>I actually did have this put together to post last night, but then our internet went haywire! blah! Don't you hate when that happens? Anyway, the craft I wanted to post about was a baby wipe and diaper carrier. (think &lt;a href="http://www.diapeesandwipees.com/"&gt;diapees &amp;amp; wipees&lt;/a&gt;) Last week I made one for my friend's baby shower. She is in love with purple, so that what I did. This one, however, is a little different. I added some lace and want to put a flower on it. But I'm having a hard time deciding which flower to do.

I'm making it a goal for it to be something new, but I'm sure there will be days that it will have to feature some things that I've done in the recent past. Well, here goes for the first edition.
Today I spent the better part of the day sewing. I started out by making an apron out of some REALLY cute fabric. This is the item that I listed on my &lt;a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=5294250"&gt;new Etsy store&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/SA6o_TUryEI/AAAAAAAAFWY/w63d6V-4CvM/s1600-h/S5004015.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/SA6o_TUryEI/AAAAAAAAFWY/w63d6V-4CvM/s400/S5004015.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5192273225877014594" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

This one has a red base with a red/brown/yellow print fabric. I'll put up some pics when I finish it. Then I went shopping for a friend's baby shower. She is really into purple and is having her first girl after having 3 boys! So I picked up some purple fabrics and made a nursing cover and a "diapees and wipees" bag. I was really happy with how they both turned out, but I forgot to take a picture. Oops. Next time. So that's it for this edition.

Talk about a headache! But we got some really cool stuff. Here's a peek into some of the stash we got:

I love these square frames. I actually didn't really care about the prints in the frames until we got them home and into Sol's room. The prints match some of the decor in his room perfectly! My ulterior motive the whole time was to get some square frames to print out some digital LO's to put in his room. I love these white frames, the only issue I have with them is that they are an odd size (i think about 9x9), so I'll have to be creative in printing. ($14.99 for set of 3 pictures)&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/R-R8wD5CV2I/AAAAAAAAFMw/3Olfp2VGtuU/s1600-h/63423_PE170999_S4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/R-R8wD5CV2I/AAAAAAAAFMw/3Olfp2VGtuU/s400/63423_PE170999_S4.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5180402636503013218" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

We got these cool hangy things to put in our living room for Sol's toys. (don't worry, it'll be mostly covered by a shrunk we got from my parents from Germany.)  I just like the idea of having a place for Sol's toys that is easy for him to put away and easy to get at. We got the white one. I was wishing they'd have a light blue or brown one to match our living room a little better, but it's still good.  ($4.99) &lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/R-R8wD5CV1I/AAAAAAAAFMo/guR9Rd-EVLs/s1600-h/49946_PE145855_S4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/R-R8wD5CV1I/AAAAAAAAFMo/guR9Rd-EVLs/s400/49946_PE145855_S4.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5180402636503013202" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

Which brings us to our third item...these bibs! I really like them because they cover up Sol's arms. This is great when daddy's already dressed Sol in his Sunday clothes and Sol hasn't had breakfast yet. It has the pouch sticking out to catch food, but I don't know if it's because Sol is still so small, but it doesn't really work. They covering the arms thing makes it worth it though. ($3.99 for 2)&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/R-R8wT5CV3I/AAAAAAAAFM4/z8cXEzKx13E/s1600-h/76492_PE196524_S4.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/R-R8wT5CV3I/AAAAAAAAFM4/z8cXEzKx13E/s400/76492_PE196524_S4.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5180402640797980530" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;

And finally, we bought a mirror for Sol's changing table. I've honestly been meaning to do this forever. My uncle suggested putting one up so that Sol would have something to focus on other than rolling off when he gets his diaper changed. The mirror that we got is just plain unstained light wood. So,  stay tuned for what I did to make this mirror match Sol's room. (I'll give you a hint-it's got to do with modge-podge and cowboys!) I hopefully will take more pics of Sol's room too. I don't think I've really got any up and I'm so happy with how it turned out.

I feel like I used so many different things from different places.

The funny thing is that it's made from leftover fabric I had from making my kitchen curtains. I have a lot more detailed pics and instructions if anybody is interested in hearing about it, leave me a comment and I'll walk you through measuring and making this sling. I love it! I took some pics of Sol in it, but I haven't uploaded them to the laptop yet. I'll post them when i get a chance! You can find instructions for how to make this &lt;a href="http://www.sleepingbaby.net/jan/Baby/tubesling.html"&gt;here&lt;/a&gt;.

It took you a while to sleep through the night, but just 2 nights ago, you slept 14 hours straight!

It starts Feb. 22.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7626425163026868119-5662443336628044929?l=shelbyscrafting.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://shelbyscrafting.blogspot.com/feeds/5662443336628044929/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7626425163026868119&amp;postID=5662443336628044929' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7626425163026868119/posts/default/5662443336628044929'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7626425163026868119/posts/default/5662443336628044929'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://shelbyscrafting.blogspot.com/2008/02/new-blog.html' title='New Blog'/><author><name>Shelby and Johnny Family</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/Swl5gzT6zyI/AAAAAAAAMTQ/l3VUnWXLoOI/S220/johnny-%26-shelby.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7626425163026868119.post-6835539465093071827</id><published>2008-02-12T19:17:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2008-12-08T17:15:11.240-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='anniversary'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='johnny'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='digital scrapbooking'/><title type='text'>4 Wonderful Years!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/R7I5tyZqjqI/AAAAAAAAEzQ/Z2oExx7znlQ/s1600-h/4years.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/R7I5tyZqjqI/AAAAAAAAEzQ/Z2oExx7znlQ/s400/4years.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5166255181333696162" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;This lo was done using some pics we took on our anniversary last November. The top right pic was us leaving for our honeymoon. Journaling reads:

"these past four years have been the best years of my life. i love being with you you help me to see the fun.  and adventure in life. it's definitely never dull with you  around.there's belching,singing, and story reading to sol. i love to catchyou doingthese things when i haven't been watching too closely. so sweet."

I took the journaling for this page from a blog entry on our family blog. How easy is that? Also, I love that I can use my blog as a family journal of what's happening in our lives. First time ever that I've been consistent with journal keeping! Anyway, here's the latest LO.

&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/R7IO1CZqjpI/AAAAAAAAEzI/KbT5p6bEN6c/s1600-h/waterbottle.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/R7IO1CZqjpI/AAAAAAAAEzI/KbT5p6bEN6c/s400/waterbottle.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5166208026887753362" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;span class="smallfont"&gt;This page documents Sol's fun adventures chasing a water bottle around. The journaling says:
"Lately Sol has had a lot of new
tricks. I've LOVED them! He's starting
to scoot around and it's just too
darn cute. One of his favorite
things to chase? Empty water
bottles. The problem with water
bottles is that as soon as you
touch them, they roll away from
you. This little guy is tenacious!
He chased this water bottle all over
our living room. He'll get almost
close enough to touch it, roll to
his back, do a little scoot, roll back
over, and try to reach it again.
It's so comical to watch."


It also says on the right side:
"and when I catch it?
i look at it...
i eat it...
i give it loves"

Paper Pack</title><content type='html'>I have uploaded my Hello Cowboy! paper pack so now you can download it and start having some fun creating with it too. The elements used to create it (by &lt;a href="http://scrapwithnikki.com/"&gt;Nikki Painter&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href="http://obsidiandawn.com/"&gt;Obsidian Dawn&lt;/a&gt;) allow for commercial use, and I just want to spread the love of vintage western, so go ahead and use this paper however you would like (scrap-for-hire, invitations, etc.). The only thing I ask is that you give me, Shelby Hansen, credit for the creation of the paper and a link back to this site: shelbyscrafting.blogspot.com when you can AND that you don't resell the papers as or part of a digital kit without my permission. Enjoy! (BTW, I really hope this works! I saved the files at 12x12 inch size and 300 dpi.)

I mostly used the "Wanted" collection from Cosmo Cricket. I LOVE IT!! Let me know what you think!

I started a book for Sol before he was born and I've been trying to get some done before I go to Scrapaway (a scrapbooking weekend in Utah). So I took pictures of some of my LO's. Sorry they are not straight and not incredibly crisp, but you get the idea...

I couldn't get a really good shot of the "H" because the flash kept making a weird reflection on it. Sorry! These were wooden letters that I got from WalMart. I used a variety of papers (I can't remember all of which kind right now-I did this over a year ago) along with buttons, flowers, stickers, rhinestones, and ribbons. I'll post the one I did of Sol's name soon.

From the first picture, you are looking into my kitchen and from the second one, into the dining room (see those &lt;a href="http://shelbyscrafting.blogspot.com/2008/01/my-curtains.html"&gt;curtains&lt;/a&gt;?) I saw these flowers and fell in love with them. They are silk poppy flowers and gerber daisies. I had a time trying to figure out what to do with them, so I found a long vase and filled it with black sand to match my kitchen. (my kitchen colors are black, red, and yellow) Now I'm thinking I should have taken a picture from above so you can actually see the view of the flowers.

This was the first time I actually had windows to cover!! So exciting! For my dining room, made this valance. I still have some leftover fabric, so I'm thinking about doing seat cushion covers (in all my spare time hahah!).

I didn't realize what a huge undertaking it would be to do these curtains. I like to sew, but I'm not a guru by any means. It took me forever to figure out how to do the ribbing and to make the holders for the tassels. Very fun though. I just hope it fits the windows for future places I'll be living!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/7626425163026868119-7104862017215009511?l=shelbyscrafting.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://shelbyscrafting.blogspot.com/feeds/7104862017215009511/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=7626425163026868119&amp;postID=7104862017215009511' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7626425163026868119/posts/default/7104862017215009511'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/7626425163026868119/posts/default/7104862017215009511'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://shelbyscrafting.blogspot.com/2008/01/my-curtains.html' title='My Curtains'/><author><name>Shelby and Johnny Family</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='32' src='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/Swl5gzT6zyI/AAAAAAAAMTQ/l3VUnWXLoOI/S220/johnny-%26-shelby.gif'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/R4WS_0dGj9I/AAAAAAAAENA/PjfnGC-KlnY/s72-c/S5003023.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7626425163026868119.post-1266906078492139817</id><published>2008-01-09T15:02:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2008-12-08T17:15:12.969-05:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='digital scrapbooking'/><title type='text'>A LO by Lorraine</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/R4UpLEdGj7I/AAAAAAAAEMs/4jBNiqOjV98/s1600-h/2007_12_03+JohnnyShelbybyLorraine.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_Jy-HwWmEeQE/R4UpLEdGj7I/AAAAAAAAEMs/4jBNiqOjV98/s400/2007_12_03+JohnnyShelbybyLorraine.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5153570618746507186" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;
