Another layout, with a photo of my sister on St. Croix. The more I worked on this, the more it seemed to call for simplicity. This was the evental result.

New layout

This is a beautiful photo of my two younger kids, Emrys and Bethia. They are 18 and 17 respectively, born 15 months apart and often thought to be fraternal twins.

 


This was made with Tempus Fugit's Wildflower kit.

My daughter returned to California on Sunday. The house is quiet and empty and I've been wrestling with a headache that just won't leave.

Today on Jen Maceyunas' blog, she published the shocking results of her Nerd Test.  Well, being nerdy, I immediately had to go take the test myself.

Without further ado, let me proudly announce that I am a:


I am nerdier than 100% of all people. Are you a nerd? Click here to find out!


Scary, yes? Especially for never getting any sort of degree in college.

Once I get caught up on a few things, I'll be able to get back to scrapping. Hopefully will have something up in a few days.

Another family Christmas gathering. The stockings were included in the quickpage, but I added the names to them with a red glitter alphabet from Terry Maruca.



For those of you that are just discovering digital scrapbooking (my HKO friends), a quickpage is a premade file, all you do is add your own photo to have a finished page. You can usually do a little extra decorating too, if you're inclined. They're a great way to go if you're strapped for time or inspiration.

Hope you've enjoyed my photos!

This one is my daughter Bethia, the year my sister knitted her a wonderful shawl in her favorite colors.

Here are a few more, from a Shutterfly album that's currently being printed. These are all family Christmas photos from various years, and I've scrapped them all with quickpages from Jessica Dixon's St. Nicholas kit. She had a quickpage exchange with this kit - each participant designed one or more quickpages, and we all got a huge set of them as a result, over 150 pages.



More coming!

This one had me rummaging through half my computer finding things that worked together. I’m getting all my files organized, it just takes time.




Paper from Rose.li A La Carte; plaid paper and ribbon from Katie Mann’s Be Who You Are; tear template by Cottage Arts;  frame by Jeanine Baechtold at computerscrapbook.com; brad by Amanda Geils, from On the Go; rub-on by Alma Townsend, from her kit Verde; and button by O. Neal from In This Moment.


Whew!


Here's one I did a while back , using pieces from several kits.

This layout includes pieces from MLamarre's Gypsy Circus (formerly of dragonflairestudios.com); The Leaf, from NBK scrap; and Havana Nights from Raspberry Road Designs. I'm afraid I lost track of the tag - if anyone recognizes it please let me know so I can properly credit it!

Still alive

One of these days I may decide to put actual content on here!

In the meantime, I've added some music - probably not the same old stuff that pops up on other blogs. If you find something you like and want more information, leave a comment!
