a few pages for the last few days.

we have been internet-less for the weekend and i have to tell u i really didn't miss it that much. 

here are a few pages i worked on:)

shazaaaaaam!

i am all caught up!!!!!!

not a lot of time online:)

but lots of scrapping:) YAY!!!!!

right now....

we are taking a break.

blogging will be back after halloween:)

scrap for today:)

the best thing about digital:

digital scrapping never ceases to amaze me.

it is just crazy that you can take a blank template, plug some photos into it and then just let it sit for a while until you are ready to attack it.

for example, right now i have about 10-12 templates with pictures on my desktop.

they are all the photos i have up to this morning (yes, i am current on my pictures).

it took me about 2 hours to get those done in one stitting

12 pages in 2 hours?...yup!

then i just let them simmer until i find the right paper and then i get them finished:)

this template is a jenn lindsay blended photo one.

i could never do this technique on my own...takes too long!

but i have a bunch of blend templates that i can adjust for what i need.

easy peasy!

i added the paper layers, title and subtitle...done in about 25 minutes!

it is seriously magical!

and i do not use the word lightly!!!!

a little bit o' paper and a new spot.

redoing some paper pages and having fun!

an old 8.5x11 that was made into an 8x8:)

a very simple, simple page:)

a 2 pager that was condensed into one 8.5x11

little details.

a pile of layouts on the table....haven't had that in a while!

and my new spot. ALL my paper stuff is here. LOVEEEEE it!

and that is all i got for today:)

right now:

i am re*doing yucky old pages into more condensed happy pages.

the paper stash MUST be used:)

i am current on my pictures. digitals makes it soooooooo very easy to stay on top of the happenings and going ons.

i am LOVING big pictures, banners and little do*dads for my digi pages!

i have 11 filled in templates, waiting for me to finish up. did i mention digi is awesome?

i am coping with health issues and dr. visits and life.

i am trying to catch up on shows.

i am reading like CRAAAAZY!

i am off to finish some laundry.

bad pictures of my latest paper pages:)

the pictures are bad, but i got the pages done and i am SOOOO happy i did.

all pictures from our florida vacay in 1999.

ohhhhhh the memories:)

one more for the road:)

quick pages are awesome:)

this 2 pager is from paislee press.

love love it:)

for today:)

there is something missing...

this afternoon in between all our errand running , we made a quick stop @ the park,

of course, i took the camera.

fall is my absolute favorite-est time to take pictures.

the light is beautiful and the colors are amazing.

we got to the park and miss zoe had a meltdown in the car.

there was no way she was coming out.

since she found out all the things she is allergic to, she has become very very ocd about avoiding those things.

today she was NOT going out to the park because of the grass and ragweed.

so we parked in a far spot and took pictures next to the car.

and that is how it is most of the time.

we deal with it as best we can because that is what we do.

we adapt.

and we try to make things are good as we can.

a few more catch up pages:)

from that to this:) franB.template

this is the template as it was.

i turned off all the embellishment layers and the paint layer also.

after i finished the template tweaking, i wanted to include more photos.

duplicating the photo layers and then re-arranging them did the trick.

i was able to include all the pictures i took of my puppy on that particular day.

paper and embellishments from the blog train blog for october.

all *freebies*

finally...finished another b'day book:)

this time for my niece annalyse.

it is her b'day present and i can't wait to see it.

thought i would give the costco 12x12 a try and see if it is any good.

this is one of the singe pages i made for my own books.

all items from biograffiti. she is selling her entire store for $25.00, could you believe?

check it out!

another biograffiti page.

power*scrapping.

i have been matching picture to templates and putting them into my powerscrapping file.

these pages were finished this morning before i start cleaning up.
