Simple Pleasures

While making lunch today it occurred to me I didn't see my last post, so after everything was finished I came in to investigate...there it was. It was my error on when I wanted it to be automatically released. And I never think to check it the next day to make sure anymore, because most of the time it usually works, and I usually make less mistakes. Anyways.......

 Anyhow, here is a new kit Flutter Expressions has made and put in her store at The Digi Chick. It is called Simple Pleasures. Get a good look at those amazing colors will you? So gorgeous together.

After my kids left, I downloaded this awesome kit and created a page to highlight it using some of my digital photo's taken while my kids were here. In photography, there are moments you wish to capture and after you get them on to your computer and find that favorite moment a bit blurry or out of focus, be sure that you do not toss it but simply reduce the photo in size and place it in your layout and reduce your opacity for blended look on your paper. The photo is saved as well as the moment you want to remember. Sometimes, in smaller form or cropped and reduced, they usually come out clear enough for your layout.

Now do not forget to visit Flutter Expressions Blog as she has this fabulous template offered to get your mojo in gear for a challenge. I hope you play along with the rest of us....

Last but not least, I want to share a link with you that I thought was totally cool. It is on the Simple Scrapper site and thought it was a wonderful idea. I bought myself a 60 page 6x8 plain memory book or photo-book while shopping in Craft Warehouse for Christmas gifts. I have decided I am going to scrap my life thru out the whole year, to see the changes made and also the accomplishments. 60 pages should allow me at least two pages a month, whether using photographs or simply journaling. The whole point is to document our lives.  I might actually share it as a gift to my daughter, parents, grandson, who all live far away, and or you get the idea. I can't wait to get started. And lucky you might actually see the pages in progress each month, depending on how I decide to do it. Besides, it would be so fun to look back through it after a year and see all that happened or the changes made, don'tcha think?

Have a super day and Happy Scrappin!
