This is from BonitaKat!
Are you serious??? I can't believe it! Honestly, I would never have thought I would be chosen to be Diva!! How exciting! Okay, here's a bit about me...
I feel that I'm the new kid on the block, since I've only been posting my pages for a few months. I've been truly inspired by all the talent on this site.
I started scrapbooking 2 years ago and have been addicted ever since. Looking back over those years, I realize now how important scrapbooking and stamping was, and is, for my sanity. I'm a SAHM of 2 boys (ages 2 & 4), and I needed to have something for ME, that creative outlet where I can express myself and be challenged.
Since I became a SU Demo just over a year ago, my scrapbooking style has changed drastically, and I love using stamps on my pages. Until recently, I rarely used patterned paper, because I'm either too cheap, or I feel challenged to create my own designer paper! Those are the pages I'm most proud of.
CONGRATS BONITA! I took a few mins to peruse your gallery...I found some very YUMMY pages. I forsee some CASE'in girl! I loved this double-page layout. Flashin my DimplesPG2BK Before Kids I love the BG paper...It looks like you have mastered that technique girl.
I've seen your gallery and you do great work!! :-D I can't wait to use one of your pages for an inspiration!! Here is one of my favs from your gallery:
Thanks everyone for your kind comments, I appreciate it very much! This is making my week! And it's making me want to scrapbook tonight...
I just walked in the door from camping for 3 days... looking very grubby, to say the least! So I said to my 4 year old, "Hey Simon, I'm a scrapbookin' Diva!!" He said "You're a TV??!" I said "No, a DIVA... do I look like one??" He promptly said "No way! You're dirty... and you're just MOM." With that kind of response, you'd think he actually knew what Diva meant! I thought it was hilarious...just wanted to share!

So sweet! - but truly being 'just' a mom is pretty darn awesome most days!

Too cute! being "just a mom" is quite an honor! ;)
Congrats your Diva-ness!
Finally had a chance to sit down and scrap after a very stressful day. Here's my son's page using all CTMH papers and stamps. It was my goal to use CTMH as I've been hoarding it.
I had a chance, too, to finally do a little scrapping. I used Bonita's Dimples page as my inspiration sketch. Here's my DD making crazy faces. My titles are soooo creative! NOT!
Congratulations BonitaKat! There were so many favorites in your beautiful gallery. I really enjoyed "Talk to the Hand" and getting ready to pick one for an inspiation.
OMG! That is too funny...I'm glad you shared. Don't they just humble us sometimes?

Finished first page of many more to come from this day at the mountains with family. I used BonitaKat's layout titled "My Song" for mine, thanks for the inspiration!
