This is what I had today…you know, from the office? LOL

As I was sitting at my desk staring blankly at the screen…while trying to not get caught just staring at the screen…a layout popped into my mind. I love when I can envision it before it “happens”.

Digiscrapping has let me really use and explore my creative side. Especially since I’ve really been trying to make a layout a day. I haven’t run out of pictures or ideas and actually it’s all kind of come to me…just like today.

Last night while eating dinner with my husband (we grilled steaks and corn and had potato salad and noodle salad…YUM!) I was looking at this picture we have on the wall of my niece. It’s got soft colors and is the cutest picture ever. I just KNEW that would look awesome in a layout using Digitreats “skip” sets and it does! After we were finished eating I went and played around and whipped it together. I’d show it, but she’s nakkie and I still am not sure about posting pictures of the kids. But it’s cute cute cute!

Here’s the layout that was in my head. And a way to also learn a little bit about me. This was the layout that came together in my head. And this is the sweetest kit and it was a freebie too!

Sunday's Ramblings

| By | Filed Under: life | Leave a Comment


I’m over yesterday’s hubby rant and all is well again in our humble abode. Actually he’s at work and I’m enjoying some quiet time while the zoo is napping. It’s funny, they are literally laying all over the house. Onyx (Missy) is in the dining room…her and I spent some intimate time cutting the mats off her underarea earlier so she’s a bit miffed with me…Topaz (Puppa) is in the hallway sprawled out, Razzle (Yidda) is in the kitchen on the floor, Malcolm (Mooshy) is in the kitchen on the stove…he always lays there, it’s warm and he likes to be up high…Alex (Fana) is in the laundry room on the rug and Beans is under the bed in her hiding spot.

And me? Well I’m sitting here in my purpley office in my jammies searching the net for scrappy freebies. Oh, and I’m printing invites for my sister’s wedding. We kind of had a girls’ day yesterday (just my sisters and me) and went shopping, to Thai for dinner…and I had this new YUMMY peanut sauce dish with broccoli, chicken and cabbage – YUM!…and then we came back here and searched the net a little for favor ideas and then tweaked my sister’s wedding invites and started printing them a bit. It was a good time!

Today’s layout is another of my nephew. I feel like I am always making one with my other nephew and niece and not as many of my older nephew. I have tons of pictures of him growing up but they’re all on floppy disks and this pc doesn’t have a floppy drive. I need to put them onto CD’s so I can use them!

Everytime I pull my camera out Elijah is posing or setting up some kind of scenario for me to take a picture of or video. Here’s a picture of him from a few Thanksgivings ago where he wanted it to look like he was chasing or trying to kill the turkey for dinner.


Well the husband is on his way home and I have to repackage 40lbs of chicken backs to be refrozen. Fun, yucky stuff! lol

I may be back later with another layout later. There’s a picture of my niece that would go perfectly with the Digitreats “skip” set…
