All Star Digital Techniques Class at Scrapaneers

I decided to take this class at Scrapaneers because I LOVE everything Traci Reed.

I am working on the first module.  Amy Kingsford has made this module all about Gradients.  I have never ever used gradients.  Never thought to use them on scrap pages.

Here is my first attempt.  I kind of like it.  Used Sara Jones kit 95 days that was a part of The Digi Files.

Some recent layouts of Shayna

This was made using the template "The Easy Life Templates 2" by Jady Day at Sweet Shoppe Designs.  Kit is "One Nutty Family" by Penny Springerman and Mari Koelenberg from Sweet Shoppe Designs.

Week 7

Finally finished my Week 7 layouts.  Taylor's birthday was during this period.  That was about the only real excitement for the week.

These layouts were made using the awesome templates by Scrapping with Liz called Piece of Me # 5 and 6.  They were part of the Daily Digi monthly pack

I also used the Celebrate Kit which was a great collaboration on Sweet Shoppe Designs, Dear Diary Word Art by Little Butterfly Wings from The Lily Pad, Bits & Bytes Weekly Titles by Nettio Designs from Sweet Shoppe Designs.  I used Darcy Baldwin's awesome fonts - Little Black Dress and Geeks who Wear Glasses from the Sweet Shoppe Designs.

Week 6 Rainy weekend has been productive

SO I am finally on Week 7.  Here is my week 6 layouts. I used a double template this time.  It was actually way harder to scrap that way.

Basketball season is in full swing.  Thought I would try something different and use this amazing kit "Lay it Up" by Heather Roselli available in the Sweet Shoppe Store.

Template: # 79 Manda Girl (double page)

Items:Moments & Memories – Sabrina Dupree (TLP)

             Lay it up Kit – Heather Roselli (SS)

             Title Cards Weekly 1 Cindy Schneider (SS)

Sadly if anything the more weeks I do of this year the more I realize what a boring life we lead.  Not much excitement.  Oh well at least we are happy.

Week 5 Yes I am super late but Catching up

This is page 1.  I love the colors in the kit "Nutty Family"Mari and Penny are so talented.

My weekend was not a waste

Ok so if I look around me right now it would appear my weekend was a waste.  Honestly it wasn't.  Sure I am still sitting in the same spot I have been in most of the weekend.


But...

My blog is revamped.

I spent the last couple days trying to figure out what I am doing with this blog.  I know I am really the only one reading it but I hope to change that.  Instead of having multiple blogs I am going to try the "Pages" feature.  

So I spent a bunch of the weekend going around the web looking for what I wanted and found a great site Lee-Lou Blogs that has lots of Free Blog Headers, Backgrounds and templates especially for us scrappers.  They are great as you can see.


I also watched a whole season of Supernatural on Netflix so I am finally on Season 6!!

BECOME - My One Little Word

Become

What does this word mean to me?  That is really the question. 

I have decided to give Ali Edwards One Little Word Class a whirl this year.  I haven't actually "Made" any pages or designs yet towards this program.  I am still struggling with the "Intentions".  

I have :
1. Organized I intend to organize my house, my life, my job, my everything I guess.
2. Better Become a better friend, person, neighbor.  You get the point
3.Balanced Making my life between work and play a little more even.  
4.Cultured Read, checking out museums, art galleries, ballet
5.Mindful remembering that there are other people in my world other than me. 
6.Independent  I do NOT go alone anywhere. That has to change.  Big girl panties will be worn this year.
7.More  I don't want to be just a mother, friend, daughter.  I want to be someone who is noticed.
8.Passionate I want to become passionate about life not just live it.   
9.Confident I admit I have no confidence.  I know I am awesome I just don't really cheer for myself.
10. A Finisher  No more starting 50 projects and never finishing.  I want to see results
11. A Maker Try to cook more elaborate, finish an album, make a quilt.
12. Decluttered I want to evolve into someone without the baggage (mentally and physically)

Hey - I have all I need to start my pages.  Tomorrow - I gotta get to bed.
