More Digi Scrap Fun!!

Hi there! Wow, I've been having fun with my new Digital Scrapbooking Studio!!! I've been working on quite a few different things but wanted to share a very quick & easy 12 x 12 page with you.

I love to scrapbook our pets, they are so photogenic!! This page is of our old gal Kellie Cat. We've had Kellie for 16 years now; she was a pregnant stray who wandered onto my friend's farm one day, giving birth to 11 kittens a few weeks later. She's only ever weighed about 7 pounds so that was a HUGE litter for her small body!! (very fertile genes, one of her kittens had a litter of 12!) My friend asked if we would take her after all the kittens had been adopted ~ of course we said yes!!

So, she's 17+ years old now and still going strong. She sleeps more than she used to but her fur is still glossy and she enjoys teasing the dogs every once in awhile, pretending she wants their rawhide bone! She'll lay there and push it around, scenting & pawing it; the dogs just watch her with amazement. They are smart and recognize she's elderly, treating her with respect. But you can see them thinking, "hmm, she's not really gonna chew it is she???? what will we do then???"

Thanks so much for dropping by!

My Digital Studio!!

Hi Everyone!!! Well, I finally succumbed to purchasing My Digital Studio! Actually, I got it for Christmas. It was one of those gifts that my DH asked me to order for myself (from him). The funny thing is that he put it away to wrap and then promptly forgot about it!! So, needless to say, I got a few extra things this year, lucky me!! That also saved me from having to open it in front of the kids and pretending to be surprised! :-)

I really really LOVE this program!!! I'm still very new at it but find it super easy to use and a great way to instantly scrap when a special event or a particular picture motivates me to want to create a page.

This page is of our dog Sophie; she was only about 3 months old last Christmas. This page didn't take too long to create as I used a ready made template and is one of the first things I've tried my hand at.

Thanks so much for dropping by and have a wonderful day.

Happy New Year!!

Hi there & Happy New Year!

I wanted to share some pictures my husband took at one of our local parks. Each year our small city does a wonderful job decorating this park with lights, lights & more lights!!!! We bought a new camera a few months ago, a shared gift for "our" birthday's. Its been a dream of mine to photograph this park at Christmas with more of a camera than our point & shoot and now we are able to! These lights are up from November til about February or March and I always marvel at their beauty when I drive by.

Encircling the park is a small ice surface where children can skate through the trees; at the edge of the park, there are firepits set up and you often see families roasting hotdogs and marshmallows, enjoying a mug of hot chocolate after their skate. Geeze, I wish I were a kid again...... :-)

This park is truly a Winter Wonderland, I sure hope you like the pictures!!

May you and your Family have a wonderful New Year!!
