A little behind

I receive scrap kits from Jenni Bowlin & Scrapologie each month. Love both of them! However, during the last couple months of school....well, who am i kidding, since February I got way behind. So, I've been playing catch up. Bought a 6 foot table at Sams this summer & converted part of our playroom to my art/work station. Makes it light years simpler. Now I can just keep a running couple of layouts up & going at all times. Before I had kept all my stash, which is quite large by now, in various places in our master bedroom. Needless to say, that was quite a chore to get papers, embellishments, ribbons, anything. That plus the fact that I am a compulsive neatfreak non clutter girl made for little project time. Blah blah blah. And, now with the new love of my life, its much simpler to photograph these little creations & get 'em up on the ole' blog
From the Tuscan Sun May Scrapologie kit....


Finally figured out that i should try to print Rhonna's digi frames on a transparency & then lay them over my pics for a fun layer & textured effect. I guess that was a big duh to everyone else but I'm catching one! Of course you can photoshop those babies right over your image but i love the layered look. Who knew?


Love these 7 Gypsies papers!



Ok, so the Beauty layout wasn't from a kit....MME bohemian line with some Heidi flowers for fun & a huge photo corner...love those. By the way, thanks Rita. I had a edger from Heidi & couldn't quite figure it out until you blogged about it & now I'm hooked...use it on every LO>
