Peek-A-Boo



I took this pic of Princess Boo a week or two ago and loved it but since I've been in Atlanta for a HS convention and to visit a friend I haven't had a chance to look at my scrapbook stuff. Anyway, you know how much I LOVE the speed scrapping :) and it was on my calendar for last night. Wouldn't you know it... the theme was "peek-a-boo"... how cool is that? So I did one for the speed scrap and then this morning I blew the picture up and changed it a little... if you're browsing, let me know which one you like best :)

The Big Snow


I did this page while we were in Oklahoma City yesterday. The frame is from Dani Alencar's Miscellaneous Templates off of Go Digital Scrapbooking. Oh - the snow was earlier this year before I started digiscrapping. It was definitely a big one... by Texas standards anyway :) Check out that snowman that His Royal Highness built... it was HUGE! His Royal Highness is 6'4" tall and our snowman pal was just about as tall!

Armed & Dangerous


Here's a picture I threw together last night. I think I need the speed challenge for me to break outside of the box and add things - otherwise, the layouts look kind of plain. After looking at the one below I've decided to just keep it as is :) Hope you had an awesome 4th of July. We had a relaxing day at the pool and home, topped off with fireworks at the end. I'll scrap some of those next, but will also post just pics in the other blog.

I'm Addicted




To Speed Scrapping! What a blast! I did my second one today because I REALLY wanted the giveaway for participating... it was a beautiful kit. Anyway, this one was more challenging than the last since I wasn't familiar with some of the terms like "sunray paper" and "bracket mat". Of course I ended up having neither in my limited stash, so I spent over an hour purchasing and downloading kits from Go Digital Scrapbooking. With a $10 purchase I ended up getting the July Collab Kit for free, so it was worth it. Anyway, I ended up having to rush and get my page done. Here's what I came up with. I'm going to re-do it and make a few minor changes and post those later. The great thing about this is I never would have thought this up on my own... never would have put flowers in the layout because it doesn't seem like it "goes with" the picture and theme. Oh well - I'm learning to stretch myself. I do kind of like these last two from the speed scraps though.
