Sitting Pretty

Whew - it feels like forever since I've scrapped - which isn't true - as I've been scrapping for my MoM club, but it doesn't feel the same because it isn't my kiddos smiling out of the page at me.

This one took a bit longer of course trying to get back in the swing of things - I got stuck trying to add a title and finally decided that maybe it just didn't need one after all.

This photo is just one of those sweet ones that makes me smile every time it comes up on my screen saver - the girls had just learned to sit without toppling over, and they looked so adorable in their little blue jeans. I finally used this kit I bought in April, but of course had to fiddle with it and deconstruct some of the bottom cluster, so some creative erasing and then using parts & pieces for the frame.

All I Dreamed Of

This is a redo from paper to digital - another one of those LOs where I got one paper one scrapped and got all the pieces cut to do the second LO and just never got the second one done.

In addition to my MoM newsletter duties, I've also decided to try and teach some (so far 14 have joined our little group) of our mom's of multiples how to digital scrapbook. So this page is also serving as the first "lesson" of that process. I'm trying to lead the whole process on-line cause it's hard to get together without kids and with computers, but hopefully I'll be able to do some hands on stuff too.

I was finally able to scan in some ribbons, extract them and have them keep their translucence (sp?). Not something I want to do a lot of, but I did want the ribbon to be similar to the ones that I had on the original LO.

I won't be around much the rest of the month - we're close to halfway so it's time to start the newsletter and my internet browser keeps crashing every 5 minutes, so its not a lot of fun to be on-line and its practically impossible to get anything done. If I do have any spare time I'll be working on things for the OK, Just a Few Boys kit.
