It's my life

I'm back

Another digi layout. I have been having so much fun with these. I feel like I can be so much more creative with digi scrapping. I don't whether it's because you don't have to worry about cutting a piece of paper too small or that you can easy move elements around and really see what they look like. Believe me I really do love the paper scrapbooking. There is nothing like feeling something really tangible and 3D in your hands. I think paper scrapping gives me more a sense of accomplishment but maybe that's just because it so much harder for me to paper scrap than digi scrap. I don't know. I will have to think on that one some more.

Supplies used: Playground Pop by Miss Mint for Peppermint Creative

The above layout is a rather simple layout but I really wanted the picture to say it all. I absolutely love this picture of my son. I am sure that I have probably posted it before but it really ranks up in the top five of all time good pictures I have of him.

Tonight was a beautiful night. We sat out on the deck and enjoyed the good weather. I am getting over one of my mega colds and it was nice to be able to actually breathe again. I got some good medicine from the doctor today so that will hopefully knock it out for good.

I am having my monthly hostess club meeting this weekend. If you are interested in learning more about being in my hostess club please email me. We have lots of fun and always earn lots of great Stampin Up! products.

Crazy Weather

Crazy weather again in Alabama.  The kids got out of school early today.  We lost power for about 6 hours.  No internet either.  Totally no fun.  I finally ran out of battery on my laptop and had to go charge it up on in my  car.  It was pretty comical actually.  I had a extension cord in there so that I could charge up Brett's gameboy and my cord for my laptop.  We decided to go and get something to eat so the electronics charged while we were driving to the restaurant but it wasn't that far so they didn't really get a good charge.  I thought for sure when we got home the power would be on so I headed home.  Driving home I looked for lights on in the homes.  So far so good.  Got closer to my house.  Yes, still on.  Right at the stopsign before my house, I look at the light post.  It's not on.  You have got to be kidding me.  Sure enough, got home, no power.  It seems as if the power was still out in my immediate area.  About a four house radius.  Just my luck.  Well at 7:30, about 15 minutes after we arrived home the power was finally restored.  My kids about did the happy dance.  Yeah, we can play video games.  Yeah, momma can finally get on the internet.  '

So I got updated about what was going on in the world and decided to post this layout that I did a couple days ago.  Supplies are from Peppermint Creative.  I have been so loving this digi scrapping.  I have learned so much from my classes with Jessica Sprague.  I truly had an a ha the other day.  I'll try to remember to tell about that in my next post.  I also have some cards to share.  Look for that coming up soon.
