All Star Layout

This is my latest digital scrapbook page made with My Digital Studio. It is based on a sketch from Alesha Walls. I do enjoy how easy it is to upload and share digital scrapbook layouts.

P.S. I found a back-up Halloween costume for Alex since he does not want to be Elmo. It turns out that he prefers to look at Elmo...

No Chair is Safe!

Alex can now climb on all of the chairs around the house: kitchen chairs, desk chairs, glider, couch, etc. He is quite proud of himself! Photo taken 10/26/10.

one weekend 2 shots (October 23rd)

John worked on the truck (still named Cheney even though John fixed the snarly bumper a while ago), and I hung out with our silly toddler. Cheney is running again!

Halloween

One of my recent digital scrapbook pages is featured on Sweet Stamper's blog.

It will be harder to get Alex into a costume this year now that he is a toddler. He does not like to wear the Elmo costume I bought him. (There were tears...) We will see if there are any costume photos this year...

one weekend 2 shots (Sunday & Monday edition)

The weekends go by so fast right now that sometimes I forget to take pictures. We are busy chasing a toddler these days, but he will sit and read books sometimes. Photos taken 10/17/10 and 10/18/10.

Brown Bear, Brown Bear

Alex climbed up on the red chair before bed tonight to "read" his books. It is hard to make him go to bed on time when he wants to read.

one weekend 2 shots (Digital Scrapbooking Edition)

I started scrapbooking in 2005 but have made less pages since Alex was born. I take more pictures, but scrapbook less, hmm... I have been making more cards though.

Around spring 2008, I tried some digital scrapbooking. I took a great online class through JessicaSprague.com, but I found Photoshop Elements cumbersome to use. I get "rusty" on the software quickly.

For my birthday, I purchased My Digital Studio from Stampin' Up!. I made some hybrid cards over the summer and over the weekend I made some digital scrapbook pages. I'll share my pages now, and maybe write a review of the software in the future. I have more "playing" to do first.
