Pumpkin Patch -Digital Scrapbook layouts, too!

Hello Delightful friends and family,

Well you must know that I've got to show off the grandkids ever so often.  Today we had an adventure at the pumpkin patch so here are just a few (considering I took about 175 pictures!) of the photos I took today.  Let me tell you they were not very cooperative so I had to be a bit sneaky and take them from afar!

 

   Princess Tucker found a big one! (I did a couple of digi layouts of her at the end of this post!)

Prince Jakob (aka Hawk - he watched the Avengers with his dad the other night) was intrigued by the white pumpkins.

 

 He and Princess Riley had to examine them a little closer.

 

Princess Addy-tude frowned all day at me when she caught me pointing the camera her way!

 

Princess Riley posed for me! (finally some cooperation from one of the girls!)

I've used digi supplies from Shabby Princess and Publisher 10 to do the layouts.  They are pretty simple if I compare them to what I see around blogland but that's okay.  I have 4 kiddos I'm scrappin' for so sometimes less is more for me, kwim?!

 

Well, thanks for visiting!  Enjoy the rest of the weekend, I'm off to my craft table to get busy with some projects I've started. 

 

And whatever you do or say, do it as a representative of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father.  Colossians 3:17

 

 

Sweet - Twisted Pixel Challenge Sept 2012

Hello Delightful Friends and Family!

Another layout!  This is of the youngest of our granddaughters.  This is Tucker Lynn at 2 months old.

This layout was done with the Sugar and Spice Kit and Alphas by Isabel Mendez of Crisdam Designs.  I'm hoping to enter it in the Twisted Pixels Challenge for September (as soon as I'm approved to post on their forum!) Here is the sketch from Gotta Pixel plus there were some added "must haves" included with the challenge: polka dot paper, an arrow, journaling card, cluster of flowers, and ribbons or string.

  

Here are two updated pictures of Tucker Lynn at 22 months old! Look at those mischievious dark brown eyes, gorgeous! AND she does not like to be still so I can take her picture! She loves to explore and get into EVERYTHING!! Good thing my house is pretty much childproof. I took these pictures last week.  So you can see I'm really behind in my scrapbooking!

She looks so serious!

Thanks for looking! Have a great week.

Oh give thanks to the LORD!  Make known His deeds among the peoples!  Sing to Him, sing psalms to Him; Talk of all His wondrous works!  Psalm 105:1-2

First Day of School - scrapbook layout (WAW43)

Hello Delightful friends and family!

Well, this week was emotional.  Cannot believe our oldest grandchild started school.  Seems like he was just born a year ago!  Had to get this documented and finished for his scrapbook while I still had those thoughts running through my mind. I get choked up still!   So little Princess Addy-tude and I are adjusting to our day without her big brother, I do go pick him up from school and have him for a few hours, but it is strange.  Addy is definitely enjoying her one on one time with me! (and I with her, too!)

All of the papers and elements are from an assortment of digital goodness from A Cherry On Top.

Here are the ones I can remember:  Sweet Digi Doodles, Doodledoo Borders, Sugar and Spice Kit and Alphas; I used Microsoft Publisher to make the layout and typed out in a text box the journaling.

I am entering this in the Word Art Wednesday Challenge #43

  Hopefully I'll have a card to share later today!  I have plans to work in my mom's yard on Satruday morning.  She had a hip replacement surgery 2 weeks ago and will be traveling home in a few weeks (she had the surgery at Stanford) so my daughter Amy and I will be getting the weeds pulled and some yard maintenance done.  My son Sean has been putting in new hardwood floors in her bedroom (with a little help from my dh) so we are getting a few things done while she's been away.  It does make it difficult to get crafty when you are away from the craft table!!

Thanks for visiting!

Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore I will deliver him; I will set him on high, because he has known My name.  Psalm 91:14 

Birdie come back!

Hello Delightful friends and family!

 

I couldn't resist scrapbooking this day with Addy. (Feb. 2012)  She was just having so much fun watching this robin in the backyard. It was so entertaining!  She would just giggle and was so good just taking it all in! 

 

 

All the products are from A Cherry On Top (all digital) and the two sets I've used are Sweet Digi Doodles 1 and 2 (papers and elements).  Once I get the pages layed out I then put them on a flashdrive and have them printed at Scrapper's Edge on 12x12 heavy white card stock. 

 

Thanks for visiting and have a fantastic weekend!

Birthday - Digital layout

Hello Delightful Friends and Family!

 

I'm still working on those digital layouts of the grandkids.  

 

This one just makes me laugh.  I caught cousins Riley and Jakob sneaking into the cake frosting!!  What a Kodak moment!

 

Here Riley is just tickled to be getting to blow out the candles.  I just love her expressions.

 

All the digital ingredients come from "A Cherry On Top" and I used various fonts from my computer.

 

Thanks for visiting today!

Summer Fun - digi layouts

Hello Delightful friends and family,

I've been playing catch up on my scrapbooking and have decided the only way to do that is by going digital.  I've been having fun!  It will be quite a while before I'm caught up but with 4 grandkids to scrapbook, this is the way to go for me, for now.  These are recent photos that I scrapbooked.  I have been trying to get the youngest granddaughter (Tucker Lynn, 21 months) some pages done for her book and I'll be sharing those soon!  I'm trying to start from the earliest age with her and move forward so if you've been around my blog for a while, (fyi) I do not have a new little one but I'm just that far behind in my scrapbooking!

This is Jakob training for the Olympics!

The 3 oldest are having fun in the "swimming" pool.

I have to use Publisher 10 for the design work and the digital papers and elements are from A Cherry On Top and Shabby Princess.  Both sites have quite a few items to download for free and A Cherry On Top has a huge amount on sale.  I will have to put Photoshop Elements on my wish list since the version I have isn't compatible with the new computer, of course that means I'm going to have to learn something new!! ;-)

Thanks for visiting!

It is God who is at work in you, both to will and to work for His good pleasure.  Philippians 2:13

A Wedding!

Hello Delightful friends and family!

I've been playing around with Publisher 10 and doing some digital layouts from the photos I took at a wedding a couple of weeks ago.  I think I've finished 13 pages and I want to share 4 of them today.  This kind of scrapbooking is very new to me and I'd prefer to do hands on but do to shortness of time I've opted to do it this way.  They are very simple designs since I'm in the infant stage and since they are digital, I may add some more embellishments with the click of the mouse and I still need to add some journaling spots for the bride and groom.  But I hope you like them. 

Here is my list of ingredients:

Background papers and elements: Shabby Princess (Gracie and Promise Collections).  Word Art by Karen at Paper Craft Memories (1 Corinthians 13)

The bride and groom, I've known the groom since he was a toddler!

My hubby did the ceremony.

Here is a double layout of the girls.



Thanks so much for looking!

My grace is all you need.  My power works best in weakness.                  2 Corinthians 12:9
