Madison - Beautiful View



Here's my first Digital Scrapbook Page using the Kitchen Window digital package by Laurie Ann at After Five Designs. With a little bit of a learning curve, I managed to get this done relatively quickly. Much to my surprise, I am thrilled with how easy it was to complete. While it won't take over for my "hands on" dirty work with paper and ink, it certainly has a place in my creative world. I'm sure to get more scrapbook pages done using the digital embellishments and papers. And this may widen my ability to do hybrid pages as well. 


This little darling is my granddaughter, Madison. She's just one year old and already has her first cast on her right arm. And that's exactly how my son advised me of the cast. The "First Cast". So now she is sporting a bright neon pink cast from her wrist to just below the elbow. Watch out world, Madison is here to make her mark.


Thanks for visiting!

Digital Scrapbooking

Hey Folks! Are any of you into digital scrapbooking? I am just getting interested in it and found this really cool site called After Five Designs. They have the most fabulous FREEBIE! Yes, I said Free. This picture is the digital freebie and if you go to this link, you can see how they used it in so many ways. They have done all the work for you but you still get to have creative input. The best of both worlds. Hurry over and see what else they have. There is a whole section of freebies for you to try it out. The art that actually has a cost is so inexpensive, it's crazy not to try it. Good luck everyone!


I will be attempting to work with this digital over the weekend and see how I manage with it. All my scrapbooking has been the old fashioned paper and glue. And while I so love working with paper, I love my computer too. So, we'll see if this is as enjoyable as working with my hands and getting dirty. Yep, always dirty with all kinds of glue and inks on my fingers and sometimes my clothes. You'd think I'd get smart and start wearing a smock or apron. Nope, never think about it until it's too late. My mind is always on the crafting ideas instead. Anyone else have that problem? LOL


Even if you're not interested in digital scrapbooking, the site is beautiful. I encourage you to take a peek at the artwork available at After Five Designs.


Have a great day!
