LOAD 11 Desperate for Paper Scrappin


Digital: PSE7 & It's My History Kit. Pumpkin Photo - took picture of a single pumpkin, stretched it to fit page, grayscaled it with "vivid landscapes" and then used Effects - sun faded photo. the white around the pumpkin photo is "salt".
Journal: The Great Pumpkin(s)
Karlie Kay was so excited to go to the Pumpkin Patch! She searched and searched for the perfect pumpkin. Or at least we thought whe was looking for ONE pumpkin! When she was finished choosing from the rows of pumpkins, she had three - one large, one medium, and one small. When asked why, she replied matter-of-factly, "No, my need tree punkins. A Daddy Punkin, a Mommy Punkin, and a Baby Punkin!"
Oh, Karlie Kay. she is such a doll. this daddy, mommy, baby story does not end here though. This continued on through the rest of the year. I took her to Hobby Lobby to buy scarecrows for the yard - (girl can shop in there more than me!) long story short - we left with a daddy, mommy, and baby scarecrow. and the stinkier tried to get a "mommy's daddy's mommy". like what is that - a grandma? or great grandma. dunno. but she's cute. then at christmas while decorating - we had to group snowmen and santa's - so they could be with their friends or bc they were a family. and even decorating the tree - she would cluster the ornaments on one branch and label them - mommy, daddy, baby, big girl, and friend. oh - the innocence of childhood.
as for digital scrapbooking. i do love it. but i do love my paper. think i'll use this for coffee table books and big layouts like christmas and halloween - when you have a ton of photos. then you could crop them to bitty photos easily, it'd be cheaper than printing 30 4x6 prints or even wallets. I do love this for invites, christmas cards - you could make collages of the year and order any size print of it pretty cheap instead of from your pro photographer. so don't worry digi world - you haven't lost me yet - (especially since i haven't truly found the digi downloading world yet) i guess i'm a Bi-scrapper. LOL. but my hand is literally going numb, i can't take this computer one more day. so for tomorrow - i hope for you to find a nice paper layout and ink smudges on my fingers. nothing like the real thing. Enjoy!
