Christmas Memories

Becky, of Lady Bug Designs, has a new kit out called Christmas Memories.  I'm not a fast scrapper, but I got four pages done last night.  I just couldn't stop!  It's a fantastic kit as you can see!

My first page - Getting the Christmas Tree:

My second page - Merry Christmas

And my fourth page - Christmas Morning, circa 1969

Halloween Freebie

I recently did some challenges at the Digital Design Den and created some papers and elements for them.  They are just sitting on my hard drive gathering dust, so I thought I would share them with you.  If you like them and download them, please leave a comment.  Thank you!

Feeding the Chickadees

My son was here for a visit this past weekend.  One of the things we did was to visit the Nature Realm in the Metroparks to feed the chickadees and to hike.  Put a little birdseed in your hand, stand like a statue, and they will come.  They don't stay on your hand long either!  I must have take 20 - 30 shots and got a couple that are decent.  In the layout below I took the photo of the chickadee on my son's hand and DH took a photo of the gorgeous autumn colors reflected on the lake.  I used Lady Bug Designs kit, Family Matters to do the page.

New Kit from Lady Bug Designs

Becky has a new kit in the Digital Design Den store called Family Matters.  It's just perfect for vintage layouts and those old heritage type photos.

I've done two layouts so far and hope to get more done soon.  This one is my father's grandmother as a young girl.  It's the only photo I have of her.

And this one is my father's parents on their wedding day.  They both died when my Dad was a boy, so I never knew them.  The wedding license under the photo is their actual license.
