Catch Up!

Sorry it's been a while since I've posted. We have a new computer and new internet access (Go Fios!) and .... although one would think that would make it easier to post .... it hasn't worked that way. It's taken a while to get all of the files moved from the old computer to the new computer and I am having a little trouble resizing my photos to post. I used to use the software that came with my old camera, but it doesn't make sense to load that on since I'm no longer using that camera... it may not work with Windows 7 anyway. I tried out the new camera software on the old computer, but doesn't really work the same way and I wasn't completely happy with the results. I didn't bother to load it on the new computer yet and am trying to use Adobe PSE instead... but with limited success so far. Hopefully I'll get it figured out soon!


In the meantime, here are the March Design Team layouts I made for ScrapbooksPlus.

First up, the obligatory card... pretty simple, but overall a good card for me! :)




Next, my sketch layout. I had fun with this. It's the first time that I took pics specifically for a layout. I love having a photo printer... it makes it soooo easy! :)




This was the first layout I finished. I fell in love with the yellow Thickers and got some Bazzil swiss dot paper to go with the patterned paper. The colors reminded me of baby Adrianna enjoying my homemade butternut squash baby food. Isn't she cute?!

The soft colors in the American Crafts papers really worked well with Easter photos. Here is Adrianna's first Easter dress. As you can tell, I love the kraft paper with this line. So many of the papers are busy, so a little kraft paper gives your eye a place to rest and shows off the papers. The yellow is BoBunny's double dot paper. It is a favorite of mine... it comes in lots of colors and is a great go-to paper to mix with many lines.

Here is my two-pager. Sergio got these ultra closeups of Adrianna trying not smile. It's so funny looking at her "mean" face. What a cutie pie!

I am in charge of the May kit and am working on getting the October Afternoon "Fly A Kite" line. The colors are absolutely lovely and I can't wait to get my hands on them!

I'll try to get some updating done before then... promise! :)

much love,
