My new favorite page

Made this one of the computer last night/this morning. I love, love, love it. I've been feeling so uncreative, so uninspired lately, that it was just what I needed right now. I'm totally ordering copies of this from scrapbookpictures and it's going on my wall.

The background and quote are from designerdigitals. The font is AL Charisma. I used the photoblast color vivid on all the pictures. Posted by Picasa

Fun with actions

All actions are from photoblast. Excuse the imperfection of the color select, it's lateish and I didn't feel like taking the time to make it just right. Good enough for now.

Radio Silent

Sorry I haven't written lately (bad blogger!). I just haven't had a lot to say. I bought some actions for Photoshop elements and I'm waiting for them to be sent to me so I'm basically checking my email, oh, every other minute in anticipation.

My mama

My mama is just the best. She's my best friend. I'm not even exaggerating a little when I say she's the nicest, kindest, best person I know. All the things that are good in me, I got them from her. So happy mother's day to my mama, I love you so. Posted by Picasa

Checking things off my list

I feel like I got a lot done today.

First, I'll start with the picture off to the side. I take care of the nursery during Sunday school at my church. I took pictures of the kids this morning, then turned them black and white on the computer, fussed with the lighting a bit, and put the text on them. I'm going to print them off and put them in these little frames for their moms for Mother's Day. I think they turned out really well.

I also did a little scrapbooking, I finished up my pages for the circle journal swap we're doing.

I made this hanging ribbon frame thing for one of the Making Memories Home Decor kit for my mom for Mother's Day. I'll take a picture of it after I give it to her, it looks really good.

And finally, I burned my April pictures to a disk, since I somehow forgot to do that on the first (I'm usually so good at it, too!).

NSD

Happy national scrapbooking day to all my scrappy happy friends. I won't be around much to scrap today, but I did make this this morning. Just me getting crazy with brushes and photoshop (all brushes are from 2peas and designerdigitals). Have fun today! Posted by Picasa

Sometimes when you're doing simple things around the house, maybe you'll think of me and smile

This was a blog challenge from one of the scrapbooking websites I go to: Blog about someone you miss. They may have passed on, they may just not be in the same geographic area anymore, you may have just lost touch. Add a picture if you like. If you had the opportunity to ask them just one question, what would it be??
I've been missing my grandfather the last few months. He died a year and a half ago, right after Thanksgiving. I don't know why I've been thinking about him so much lately, but I have. I don't know that there is anything I'd really want to ask him, mostly I think I'd just want to tell him that I love him and I miss him.
