Simple Pleasures

Well, on this fair New Year’s Eve, I’ve been messing around with different functions in PSE, trying to learn more about it so that my scrapping just gets better. There are some great PS tutorials on Jessica Sprague’s site — the Photoshop Friday index. Here’s what I’ve been working on (this is the original photo): [...]

Wow, it’s been a crazy couple of days. A week ago today was Christmas Eve, and let me tell you…it got a bit scary at my house. Around 9:00 pm my daughter called me to tell me she was on her way home for Christmas, and about 15 minutes later I got another call from [...]

HIH December 12-20

Well, today is the 23rd, so I guess I’m not too far behind. This is actually only four layouts, because December kind of got away from us. Steven was sick for over a week, and we had to get caught up on his homework before the winter break, so a lot of time was spent [...]

Gift Box

Yesterday I made teacher gifts for Steven to take to school. They are tiny little gift bags that hold a tea bag of Sugar Cookie Sleigh Ride Tea for each teacher. I printed two bags per sheet of paper, and they were just the right size to hold a tea bag. If you print one [...]

Soup and Cookies

Yes, I’ve been working on my pages (and I will share more soon), but I’ve also been doing other stuff as well. I made recipe cards for four of the cookies in this year’s cookie swap, which I am sharing here with you. I’ve also made a card for our go to soup (which we [...]

HIH December 10 – 11

I know, I know. I have been mostly keeping up with the picture taking, but I’ve gotten a bit behind on the layouts. I am trying to remedy that, however.  I am thinking the next couple of layouts will be 1 pagers, though–that just seems to be how it worked out. So, without further ado:

Baby, It’s Cold

I have a freebie for you (oh, yeah–one of my own!). This is the word art I did for one of my Holidays in Hand pages. *Click on the preview to download wordart.

HIH December 9

We pretty much did nothing on the 9th except cuddle up in blankets on the couch and watch Christmas specials. Steven spent a lot of the day in bed, but he’s felt well enough to eat dinner. I took him to the doctor today. He has a sinus infection and bronchitis. Great. Luckily, we’ve been [...]

HIH December 8

So, as you may have seen from previous posts, December 8th was the winter band concert. Steven plays in both the Concert Band, and the Jazz Ensemble, so it’s a lot of playing. On top of that, he’s sick, but had to attend the concert because it is a huge part of his grade. So [...]

Charlie Brown Christmas

Tonight was my son’s band concert. The picture on this video isn’t very clear, because they didn’t have all the lights on in the gym, but the sound isn’t too bad. Charlie Brown (and Vince Guaraldi) is the bomb! Here’s a picture of my boy before hand. I think he’s quite handsome. Goofy grin and [...]
