I'm home



Trip was lots of work but great fun...here are some addition envelope art I created...the brown on is made out of a "waxed" bag that is for disposing of sanitary napkins...I know that sounds gross...found it at Wal-Mart...made a cool envelope...

On the blue one when I was finished I wanted the addressing area to stand out more so I just picked up my white pad and stamped it on the paper to designate the addressing area...it made a nice translucent effect...

Dru - at 16...

This is a scrapbook sample that I created using photos of my daughter, Dru....when she was 16 years old her sister, Raquelle, gave her a photo shoot for Christmas and these are some of the pictures....I thought you all might enjoy the lay out...keep in mind I am not a scrapbooke, so be kind...I made some samples for a local paper arts store this was one of them...

This is the first time I have had access to a decent computer....we will be home on Friday! the 17th!...

Lots to share but for now I just want to mention that while I was in San Diego I took a class from Nathalie of Magenta stamps at Stamping Designs (?)....I'll share the results when I return...
