Digi Scrappin'

By
I got the itch to scrapbook last night, and between last night and today, I've finished two layouts from our vacation.

You've already seen these pictures, but I wanted to show the layout I created with them.
Credits: background paper from Shabby Princess "Splendid" collection. Orange circles were "cut out" from the paper and darkened. Font: Footnote Light

And this is when we were waiting in line to get on the rafting ride. I entertained myself during the l-o-n-g 45 minute wait by taking pictures :)

Credits: background paper is a cream-colored paper (I don't remember whose) and I added the map photo, enlarged it and seriously altered it colorwise. The alpha for "Shipwreck Rapids" I created from a picture of a sign I took near the ride. Journaling stamp--Jubilant Kit from DigitalDesignEssentials. and the frames are from Katie Pertiet (Vintage Photo Frames 2) at DesignerDigitals. Font is Catchup Thin.

Great pages and photos! Do you print them all up when you're done or do you just store them on CD?

I print A LOT of them, lol! Just because seeing them on the monitor in not nearly as satifying as seeing (and touching!) my handiwork (can't really explain why).

What I've decided to do with our vacation layouts, though, is create a real book using "Shutterfly." This will be my first time. It will cost less than getting the layouts printed at Costco and buying an album to put them in ... because I took a gazillion pictures, so that's a lot of layouts :)

Things that make me smile and sometimes laugh: my family Starbucks with friends reading blogs :) parking the car in the driveway of our "new" house, lol! Oh, I guess I've forgotten to take a picture to show, huh? bantering with Ashley (the good kind of bantering--not the kind that gives me gray hairs!) My Missionettes girls (I think we've already been over the fact that even though they all have parents, they're still "my" girls!) breakfast with friends (Hi, Teena!) my new XTi :) Photoshop Elements (one of my best friends 'cause it makes me look like I take good pictures, lol!) scrapbooking (digital and regular) Crock Pot dinners (If I wasn't a Christian I would worship the person(s) who invented it) women friends in general the words Carlos mispronounces (washmouth instead of mouthwash, it's "between the rules" instead of "against the rules," and "overfloat" instead of overflow) I, of course encourag...

Feb Year In Review Layouts

By
Just a quick post tonight. It dawned on me a few days ago that I'm already behind in my "Year . In . Review" layouts, so I put February's together. Believe it or not, for such a simple concept, these layouts took about three hours combined. I couldn't believe it! Anyway, these photos depict the highlights of February. Maybe tomorrow I'll do March :) (I wonder how many hours that will take?!) Just in case you're wondering, Carlos is still sick--no fever, just a sore throat now. Hopefully he'll go back to school on Tuesday ('cause I need some "me" time before I turn into a monster, lol!). 'Cause as you all know, life is all about me, right ;) Happy Monday, y'all!

Wow! I am so bugged that I never post anymore. Facebook is just so much easier. I'll just keep it simple-- random data: today I had Pho (Vietnamese soup) for the first time and LOVED it!! Seriously, you haven't lived till you've tried it :) I created two and a half sketches of future layouts, and halfway finished two more layouts. really on a paper-scrapping frenzy! This is one sketch: I joined the Facebook group "I grew up in Fairfield, IL, and thought I would die of boredom (but I didn't)" :D ... you have to have grown up in a dinky town to "get it" had a "day off from life" hanging out at my in-laws house all day ... ahhh! gotta love days like that I can't believe it's almost June already
