Once Upon a Time...

...there was a little girl named Jena...
For some reason, I've really been in the mood to scrap some really OLD pictures! Here is what I've done in the last week...can you tell what my favorite animal is ;-) When I was little, apparently, I had my very own corral of imaginary horses. I had a cousin that I was very close to and we were always playing together when she was visiting - we still had our fights, though. One day for some reason, she let all my imaginary horses loose - I was devastated! My aunts and uncles will never let me forget that story.
I need to finish up the journaling on the first two, but I don't remember the horse's names - Mom, or Dad, can you help me out?


Products Used: Reflections, CTMH Wild Adventure paper pack and Stickease (retired), hemp, SU chipboard tag.




Products Used: Reflections, Cloud 9 Sorbet Villa paper, CTMH Vineyard Berry CS




I stamped the buckle on the back of the foil sheet - then I embossed the image, I think it turned out very cool! Here is a close-up of the buckle.
Products Used: Becky Higgins Sketches, Cranberry B&T (retired), Textured Chocolate CS, Colonial White CS, Lovely Buckles stamp set, Silver Foil Sheets, Calendar stamp set, Cobblestone alpha stamp set, Silver Conchos



This one is a little more recent - I still can't believe it was almost 10 years ago, though! I'm the one on the top row in the very middle.

That's awesome that you are scrapping old stuff! I want to do some pages of my childhood (one of these days).
Wonderful work, as always!

Wow Jena, you've been super busy!!! These LO's are so cute and I love how you did the buckle on the 2nd to the last one...too cool! I also loved the story of your cousin letting your horses loose...too cute!!! :D

Jena you have been busy! Seeing your pages brings back tons of memories, I was a cowgirl too! I lived on my horses when I wasn' in school. I miss those easy carefree days!!! Now you have me thinking I should be scrapping mine since we have so many good western stamps!

Love these pages! I want to go back and scrap mine too. I'll be living with my mom for a month or so, it might be the perfect time to start :) Fabulous pages and I love the horse story!

That's you alright - always with the horses! If I couldn't find you in the house, you'd be outside with a bucket of grain feeding the colts! Love you Bee!!
