Sharing

I have a few things to share with you today.

First, over on cafe mom, in the "photo editing beginners" group that I'm in, they had a scrapbook challenge using my kit. I just had to show off their LO's. So here they are, in no particular order.

This LO is one that I did for another cafe mom group "Digital Scrappers" It was for the pencil lines sketch challenge. The template for this LO was by Michelle Filo - Pencil Lines. You can find this and other templates at http://www.pencillines.com/ I also used Ginger scraps kit "It's Ladies night" The link for her blog is http://gingerscraps.blogspot.com/

The other thing I've been working on is making some seamless textures. I came across a tutorial (and I can't remember where at the moment) for using all those junk pictures to make textures. It's really easy to do, and now all those blurry garbage pictures that I've been saving for some reason have increased value.

I'm also still working on the new blog banner and background. I've had so many different opinions on how to improve it that I've begun to wonder if I should just scrap the whole idea. Anyway, the file is still sitting there waiting for me to have a burst of creative energy and finish it. For now, I'll just stick with what I've got.

Happy Halloween

YEAH, It's Friday!!!!! And Happy Halloween to everyone. Wanted to share a picture of the girls and I at work today being silly. Hey what the heck, it's Halloween. We wore those all day long too.

Duke has his own Halloween greeting for you as well.

The town that I live in isn't doing trick or treating until tomorrow night so I won't be seeing any little ghosts or goblins tonight.

Hope everyone has a safe and enjoyable Halloween

I finished it!

I've had the last two days off, (my last 2 vacation days of the year) so I've spent the majority of my time working on the Thanksgiving kit that I posted about yesterday. I did something wrong when I was uploading it to 4shared though, so it's in two separate downloads. One is the papers and the other is the elements and alpha set.

Like I was telling you yesterday, I had been cleaning up some files on my computer. I started looking at the mounting number of pictures that I haven't gotten around to editing and realized I've neglected that since I started doing the digi scrap kits. I picked a few out and did some quick edits.

So now it is back to work tomorrow (YUCK). For tonight I'm going to sit and listen to the wind howling outside and hope that the forecast that is calling for 2-4 inches of snow tonight is wrong.

Finish what you start

That's something I learned a long time ago. I've always had a problem following that concept though. For years now, I've been diving head first into one project or another, going along great, until I see something else that I want to do. Rather than finish project one I'm too distracted by the new project I want to start. Before you know it I've got a box full of unfinished projects.


I was going through the files on my computer today and noticed I'm doing the same thing with my digital projects. I was starting a new project today and found at least a half a dozen unfinished ones. I'm happy to report though that I did a little cleaning up and incorporated some old, unfinished projects into the new one.


What is the new one you ask? Could it be another freebie? Why, yes it could. I was inspired by Laura at http://lauras-little-corner.blogspot.com/ She made the cutest little turkey the other day and it gave me the idea to work on a Thanksgiving kit.


I'll give you just a little sneak peak at one thing that's in the kit. If you want the freebie you'll have to keep checking back until I get it all together.

One more thing before I go. I was reading through some posts on cafe mom today and came across one that I have to share with you. This lady has got a fantastic blog where she offers all kinds of CU freebies. If you're in to scrap booking you have to check this one out. It's fantastic. http://magicallmoments.blogspot.com/
