A New Direction

A New Direction in Digital Scrapbooking

I discovered Art Journaling by chance - there was a challenge at Oscraps.
This was the result:

1958 Dixieland at its best!

Well it wasn't "true" art journaling but it was a beginning.....

The next attempt was again, using Maya de Groot Designs products available at Oscraps.com

Attentions

Now I felt adventurous  and bought a kit from Captivated Visions at Scrapbook Graphics called "Fluent in Sarcasm" This kit was made for me as I'm apparently out-spoken :) Anyhow, here is my page: Called Me? Sarcastic?
I was over the moon when it was chosen as a GSO at DST.

Me? Sarcastic?

Still Life

The challenge on the Oscraps Blog to create a page using One Little Bird's kit Still Life, inspired me to do this layout.

  

 

"Winter is the time for comfort, for good food and warmth, for the  touch of a friendly hand and for a talk beside the fire: it is the time  for home."

Certifiably Cute

Back after a long hiatus away from the blogging world.
I've been busy digital scrapbooking trying to finish layouts for Christmas gifts. This first page is my dear grandson, Benjamin at 2-years-old. He is now 22! Where does the time go?
He was a sweet happy child and my layout is called, appropriately, Certifiably Cute.

Taking a Risk

This is my first ever extraction and fantasy layout. After seeing creations by friends, Helen and Linda decided to take the leap and give it a try.

The photo is my granddaughter, she was originally laying on a small bridge.

I had to add the umbrella because the photo was clipped at this point of her legs.
I'm not artistic enough to draw legs :)

I also owe this leap into new realms to the new Russian Digital Shop MATRIOSHKI SCRAP who have the most delicious fantasy kits. Be sure to check them out!

I'm so far behind on my posts that I don't know where to begin?

I will put some images together and post them later - OH!, have you visited the new Russian Digital Scrapbooking Site appropriately named MATRIOSHKI DESIGNS?

They have clever challenges and freebies - be sure to check it out!

I've discovered a delightful new designer - new to me that is...
