Episode 210 - To Be a Princess (Scrapbook Page)

Hello from Utah!!

Wow!  What a day it has been.  My kids and I made it to the airport on time but as soon as our shuttle dropped us off at the entrance we turned around and there was a twister on the ground a few miles away!  We were at a safe distance and it didn't seem to be headed our way so I grabbed my video camera and got a quick shot.  I will share that with you all over on my Facebook page tomorrow.  It was CRAZY!!!

Here is a scrapbook page I prepared for you all before I left.   I hope you enjoy it!!  Have a super fabulous GOOD one!!!  

Hugs to you all!
Robyn

Your son is adorable! And so is your dress! I was wondering though...is there another layer to the Royal Diva? I keep reading Royal 'DNA' and it just doesn't fit.

Savahanna said...

Wow, Robyn! That twister sounds scary!!!

Thank you for all of your hard work! I can't imagine what it's like just getting ready for your trip (packing for such a large family & preparing for your sister's wedding), never mind doing all of this crafting so you could post even when you're away! Thank you so much for doing that!!! I so look forward to coming to your blog every chance I have...

-Jennifer

Very cute layout. Your son is adorable. I always say that is why I cannot scrap at home because either DS or DD interrupt and want me to make stuff with them and I end up not getting my scrapbook done but they have several projects for their books and walls LOL

Jamie said...

Great layout! I love the beginning! It reminded me of watching the muppets and the dramatic entrances that Miss Piggy used to make!

Hi Robyn ... when the intro started up, it was like seeing you in a dream sequence ... very cool editing!
Glad that you're safe in Utah. Your bridesmaid dress is beautiful, and so are you. Have a wonderful time with your family and friends.
Great page with the castle.
Love your "Little Prince" ... his voice is too precious for words!

Love the layout and your dress but my favorite part is when your prince says "will you hold me?" my little guy (who is no longer little) used to say that every afternoon after nap - brought back some great memories.

Jamiecrafts said...

LOL my daughter asked if you were sleepin beauty, you look FABULOUS!! love the page and your handsome prince is just charming ;)

Judie said...

You dancing with your son was so sweet. I remember dancing with mine. It was more to rock sounds though. lol Before I "changed my ways", I can remember being carded to go into a club to meet my son. I was 43 at the time. I thought the guy was joking. Wish you could have seen the expression of the guy who had asked me to dance as my son came up & said "Hey, Mom!" That guy's mouth fell open!!! So funny. Let's see that was like 25 years ago and my son has went to be with the Lord. He had just turned 42 when he died of an lung infection he didn't even know he had. Better stop or the tears will come. Need to get back to happy! Enjoy your children!!!

Cute castle. Love the colors. I just got the cart for Mother's Day so I'm anxious to play with it.

mary said...

How fascinating! The dress is a shade of pink just for you. It also matches the walls. I think the bride chose that dress with just you in mind.

Interesting that the bridesmaid dress are shorter in length now. That makes it easier to use again.

Craftygirl17 said...

I use bridesmaid dresses to chop up the fabric and make a craft to give the happy couple on their 1st anniversary. I like to sew a muslin bunny and make a dress for it with the wedding fabric! Cute. Love your toes! Or you can let your daughters play dress up with the dress now...

Celtic Scrapper said...

How scary about the twister. When I heard there had been some in OK I thought of you. I hope your home, family and friends are all okay.

MiMi said...

Cute layout, but what a pretty dress. Love your toes! LOL
Enjoy your time away.

SCRAPLICA said...

I loved this!! :)

Lisa said...

Robyn,

I think I got a bit teary seeing you dance with your "little Prince," oh the memories it brought back, as my Princes are 20 & 28. Your dress is so lovely, & I believe you will need to go to a nice dinner sometime and wear the dress once again. I think it is a timeless style and your daughters could definitely wear it for one of their dances.

Oh did I forget to tell you how cute your scrapbook page is??? I love the castle, the colors you chose, and your "formula" for scrapbooking, I have used it twice now, and have been so happy with the results!!! It is a beautiful page.

I know you are in Utah by now (I'm a bit behind in my blog reading), I wish you a happy time at your Sister's wedding, and Happiness for all.

God Bless & Pink Princess HUGS!!!!

Lisa Sturgill :)

scraptherapy said...

So nice you could see your family. Thanks for posting. I used this same castle for a princess guest book for a little girl at school who was having a birthday party. I used almost the same colors on the castle and then put a pile of flowers underneath for the castle to rest on. I loved how easily it went together. Thanks again for all of your videos. You've really kept me crafting.
p.s. Your little guy is adorable.

MrsPaperRose said...

Who doesn't love castles? Great layout and the Princess Castle is adorable! Have a wonderful time at the wedding today. Best wishes to your sister.
