LOAD #7

Well, I am starting to struggle to keep up.  I finished this one a day late as I had to get the photos printed and stick them down last night.  It has been raining for 2 days, so hard to get a good photo too. 

The prompt for day 7 was to scrap like it was 1999.  I chose to use diecuts, and little tile alphas from the list of what was popular back then.  I used a sketch from Let's Scrap, papers from CTMH and Doodlebug (stripe), cricut cartridges: Pooh Font, and Campin Critters.
Even though I am a day behind now, I feel pretty good about my progress so far.  LOAD couldn't have come at a busier time for me.  We grow raspberries, and this is our peak time.  I work full time, and then come home to pick berries, usually for a couple of hours, (41 pints on Wednesday) then get dinner and try to get the kids in bed by 8:30, and then I try to scrap for an hour or so.  It was raining last night which gave me a break from picking, but I had 4 quarts of berries that had accidently gotten left out in the rain so I made a batch of jelly and a batch of jam after I got home from the hairdresser at 7:00.  I was just too tired to do a layout before I went to bed. 
We are going north for the weekend, and I am taking a page kit and a few layouts that I just need to add photos to.  Hope I can get a few done to catch up.  Thanks for looking.
