Template #24

Hello! I'm still here! I haven't disappeared!

Sorry it's been so long, but things have been a bit hectic around my house. Some of you may have heard about all the fires burning in Northern California. Well, guess where I live? Yeah, we have about 150 fires burning in our area right now. Thankfully, none of them have been a threat to where our house is; however, we do live in an area that has a high fire danger, so we need to be prepared just in case. So, we've been busy gathering all of our pictures and such (especially my scrapbooks!) and getting them all consolodated in one area just in case we have to leave suddenly. I've also been busy the past two weekends attending a coaching clinic. I'm a soccer coach, and the class was for me to get a higher coaching license. Great class, but very tiring!

Today I wasn't feeling all that great, so I decided to use that opportunity to sit down at the computer and be creative! I wanted to do something happy an upbeat, so I stuck with the circles. This template is so fun to play with! The layout I did with it is another one of me as a child. Another fun photo that I love! I hope you have fun with this template too! Here it is...

Have fun with it!

I'll try not to be away so long next time!

Template #23

I really wanted to post sooner, but I was busy with the last week of school, and I've been making some Father's Day albums for my dad, father-in-law, and my hubby. Now that school is out, and I'm pretty much not working this summer, I will hopefully have more time to scrap and make more templates! However, there is that list of summer projects I made for myself to finish...


The photo that I used in my sample layout is one of me from when I was about 8 years old. I've always loved this photo and have wanted to scrap it for a long time. When I saw Gina's new kit called "Penelope" at Digital Design Essentials, I knew it would be perfect for this photo. I really love how this layout came out. It's my current favorite.

I've also been into circles lately. I went from squares, to rounded squares, to circles. Circles are fun! I hope you guys can make some fun summer layouts with this template...
