Pages 1-4

I am just having too much fun working on the Dragon book. Sean and I worked out some details today, and I still need to get Ethan's okay for some others. Well, as best I can with a 5 and 2 year old lol. It's very interesting what they come up with! I want to share the first page of this story with you. Hopefully it will end up being an epic adventure (as epic as a 2 and 5 year old can handle). :)

DISCLAIMER: I am not a good writer by any means (or even a decent one LOL) so please be kind.

A couple of new layouts

Here's are a few beautiful layouts to help kick start your week.

All were created from Autumn's Kiss.

This gorgeous winter beauty (can you believe that winter's almost here!) by Kristi. She always has wonderful photos and such clean design.



Here is one by Tammy. Her layouts always pop out and they feel so bubbly. I think they are an extension of their artist, who is always bubbly and happy.



Lorraine use the calendar page and added this lovely photo as well as some matching embellishments. This is a closeup of November's calendar. Use the calender to place your favorite photos, adorn with elements, and print it for the month. :)

Layout a Day

I got the scrapping bug last night and started working on my layout. I can't find the entrance tickets (bummer!) to tuck. Well, I made due with some simple elements. Hopefully it flows. :)

I simply LOVE these new kits from Thao Cosgrove. I used her Life's Binder and Beautiful Life.

I may have already mentioned this, but when I first discovered digital scrapping, I could not really get into it. Then I found Shabby Princess, and oh wow, I was liking it. This was back in 2007 and I was not familiar with any stores. But then I found Thao Cosgrove, and I went from liking it to LOVING it. I think my first kit from her was Affection, and I still really like that kit. I went and bought all her kits at the time. She is still one of my favorite designers. So this is a major shout out to Thao, you rock! Did I forget to mention that she's also a very sweet and kind person?

So here's my two pager layout hehe.

Layouts!

Here are some layouts with Autumn's Kiss as promised. :)

This is a layout by Magda. The photo mask is included in the kit! This photo of her son is so adorable.



This beauty if by Lilja. The clustered frame is also in the kit. I just love her photo treatment here.



Here's another one by Magda. Again, gorgeous photos! Her sons are too cute! I love the way she created the clusters with the leaves. Beautiful design.



This layout is by Danesa. I love how she used the clipping mask on the patterned paper. Doesn't it look like a heart. Great idea.



I created this desktop. The last desktop I worked on was July so I'm a little behind lol. This was fun to make!



Here's a layout by Micheala. I love how the way she creates clustered elements.



Lilja also created this Halloween cutie layout. The hat is by Ireene Alexeeva. I wonder what she's stirring in her pot!
