Bella and her hat

Bella when she was a baby. This was her Uncle Bobbys hat and she was playing with it. She sure looks like her mother when her mother was this age.

The two 4 yr olds having fun at grandmas, taking a bath. They always seem to get into some kind of trouble together but that is okay except when they pait the cats and dogs....I tried a new technique on this one. I took a bubble embellishment and resized it and reset the opacity meter to different levels to get the blueish bubbles on the pictures and pages.

Oldest Grandson

My grandson with his first catch. He was so excited. I tried a something new with this one. I learned how to put a frame around the fish to highlight it. I used the marque tool, made a new layer, the deselected it (after picking my color and pixel size) and framed his fish in all three pictures. Pretty cool idea. Thank you Linda Sattgast, and Scrappers Guide.

Mother

This layout is in memory of my mother, who left us December 26, 2007. It is still very hard for me to realize that she is gone. I realized that now would be a good time to start learning digi scrapping because I haven't been able to do quilting or paper scrapping. Seems like I am not really interested or I lost my creativity. But since I started digi scrapping I noticed my creativity coming back a little at a time and I am not so depressed as I was. I still have my bad days but I am starting to have good days now. I guess it is like a form of therepy for me.

two little mermaids

One of my first LOs I did. I call this my two little mermaids cause that is what they like to think of themselves as. Mermaids like Ariel.

Oldest granddaughter

My oldest granddaughter acting silly as usual. This is the drama queen of the south. She says no drama in her life and her life is one big drama fest. We all get a kick out of it. Miss Drama Teen/Diva/Queen!

Anna

My granddaughter Anna. I loved this photo of her so I took it and desauturated the photo to b/w and then painted the eyes, flower and lips. I love the way it came out.

A layout from last night

I did this LO last night while waiting for 2 of my granddaughters (who spent the night) to go to sleep. This is my granddaughter and grandson at their fathers wedding. She was the flower girl and he was the ring bearer. I had fun doing this one. I covered up someones face with the butterflies on the left hand side of the picture. It turned out pretty good I think.

My youngest boy

My baby boy Cujo. Everyone laughs at his name cause he weighs maybe 6 lbs at the most. He talks to you like he is human. And spoiled yes he is. But loved. Of course I get tired of all the yapping he does. But hey got to take the bad with the good. A great companion and he also thinks he has to protect Beau because of his blindness. Like Beau needs any help.

A new layout or two

My oldest boy Beau. He was names after the song Mr. Bojangles. He went blind at 10 months old and it would have cost me a fortune to save his eye site and he still would have lost it. But he has adjusted so well to it. Most people can't even tell he is blind. He is the sweetest tempered dog you would ever want to meet.
