I needed a page to coordinate with the one I designed of K'Lynn at this joint b-day party. So, here's Olivia playing with a noise maker she discovered in her treat bag.
I recently purchased shoelace “rub-ons” for my traditional scrapbook and I loved them so much, I thought it would be neat to create them for my digital scrapbook as well. So, today I made this template with a shoelace border. Templates allow digiscrappers to drop their photos, papers and embellishments into a design to make a quick layout. They also help inspire people who may be struggling with setting up a page. Let me know what you think of this template and if you’d like to use it so I can send it to you.
Today I practiced making glitter. Glitter is very popular in digiscrap kits so I've been experimenting with it a lot lately. I love how the colors came out in this red glittery arrow.
You've seen this photo before. I scrapped it today b/c I needed a coordinating LO of Santana for my scrapbook. As before, this was created with my Little Bird Kit.
Today I spent some time playing with various filters in photoshop. The sketched version of this picture took the longest as it required several filters and even a little bit of "drawing" on my part. Turned out pretty neat, huh?
Wow! I can't believe it's been so long since I've posted. Sorry for neglecting you! This was a holiday weekend and my hubby and I took a mini vacation. There have been a lot of beautiful, free Valentine's Day Kits on the digi scrap sites I like to visit. I downloaded this one called, Romantic Kit by Helena Monteiro Designs and just HAD to use it. I generally like to design my own kits, but this was so pretty that I couldn't resist! These pics are of my sister-in-law and her kiddos at Christmas.
I completed this page today for Rose’s Texas Two Step template challenge at Make It Scrappy . The paper and elements are from my “Guitar Angel” kit and the journaling reads:
This new kit seems to be perfect for boy photos! Here are 2 more LOs done with the Little Bird kit. These are from a recent trip to visit my nephews - we went to an Apple Orchard and the boys had a great time riding the tractors and running through the hay bale maze.
This LO was created with my "Little Bird" digiscrap kit. I know I keep posting pics of Santana, but I think he such a cute little baby.
I was looking through my files for something fun to scrap and I found these photos from New Year’s Eve 2005. SD and I went to Austin with some friends and rang in the New Year at the Lavaca St bar.
We got to meet my hubby's second cousin, Santana, while we were visiting family in Dallas. Ofcourse, I took a bunch of photos - no surprises there! Here's one of my favs.
I put together this design today and the journaling reads: I’ve heard it said that if you pay close attention, you will sometimes receive little signs that remind you of a loved one who has passed away. Recently I was rushing off to meet my mom for dinner and I happened to look down and see something that stopped me in my tracks. I just had to take this picture. You see, most of my life, my dad smoked this type of cigarette. It was almost a year to the date that we found out my Dad was sick and here, in the most unlikely place, was a reminder of him. I felt so blessed.
This weekend I finally had the opportunity to spend some time scrapbooking (with real paper, stickers, markers, brads, scissors, etc...). It was so much fun! Here are two of the pages I scrapped from my trip to Minnesota this past October. It as my newphew's 2nd b-day and we all dressed up as pirates and went to the Park After Dark at the Mall of America for trick-or-treating and rides.
Here's another LO with pics from our trip to Dallas. We were standing around, waiting for the trolley and passed some time taking pictures.
