I did this layout with Maya's Highschool Confidential kit, with some doodles from Dani B's Digital Grafitti. This was way outside my "box", but I love how it turned out. Kate likes it too, she really enjoys my work, which is good because she is, obviously, my most featured subject! (the boys aren't quite as cooperative for me and my camera, especially Matt). I loved doing this layout, and I have a few more ideas for different kind of stuff like this, I like doing stuff that's not the "norm" for me, and that's part of why I'm so happy to be in Studio Crew...Maya (and the other Studio Girls, but especially Maya) has stuff that encourages me to go in directions with my work that I've not gone. This is good for me, and I suggest you might do some of the same. I"m going to try an "out=of-the-frame" layout, with a photo of my bird, and try to make it look like she's coming off the page. I'll let you know how it goes. Anyway, thanks for taking a peek here!

4. The big toe on my left foot is 1/4 inch longer than the one on my right foot!!
(had it shortened during bunion surgery)

Have fun everybody and I'll be checking your blogs for your answers, lol. Don't worry I'm not really the "tag Nazi". But this is my first blog tag, teehee. So thanks Brenda!

Have a great day everybody, happy scrapping!! And be sure to sign up for the newsletter at Scrapbookgraphics - you never know...I might have had something to do with a certain goodie in it...

I'm part of the Studio Crew @Scrapbookgraphics!!


Wow, I'm excited...been keeping this one to myself for a while now. But I'm on the new Creative Team (the Studio Crew) for the designers at Scrapbookgraphics...such a bunch of talented women! I've loved these designers for so long (Ronna Penner was my first "fave" designer), and now they've added Meridith Fenwick and Sylvie (Sausan Designs). I've had a great time already working with the beautiful designs there already...there is so much to chose from it's hard to know where to begin! We've all been getting aquainted with each other and figuring out what our tasks are. Maya is amazing to work with, she is definitely the queen of digi-scrap if you ask me!!. You'll probably be seeing another one of my templates being given out real soon. Anyway, check it out , I love it!! Scrapbookgraphics

Yikes! I neglected my blog!

Wow, it's been a while since I've posted. I guess I've been busy...getting the kids back to school (uggh shopping), and we went to 1000 Islands for a diving trip, and last week we took the kids to Six Flags, and the kids and I rode the Superman roller coaster 10 times! I have to scan in the photo of the 4 of us that we got, it's so funny! We rode it over and over trying to perfect our pose. Anyway, I have a fun summer template almost done, and I'll be posting it soon. And...I have something else going on and I'll be doing some revamping of my blog soon! So, until next time...
