I scrapbooked a layout
I know it is about time, but I spent last night scrapbooking this layout. Chloe's dress is just gorgeous but I am having all sorts of trouble matching papers and embellishments to it. It is a really copper bronze colour and I think this is part of the reason I haven't been motivated to scrapbook. I am one of those anal people who likes to do thinks in order - so therefore I need to scrapbook all her formal photos before I can move on to the Scrap of Faith Retreat photos, Chloe's Validictory Photos, Christmas, our holidays and the pile is just getting higher.
Sorry about the lousy photo - the light was very poor today and I mustn't have taken it straight on as it is rather lopsided. Still it is a layout and if any of you out there can give me some ideas of papers to match the bronze colour in Chloe's dress I would much appreciate it.
I am still going strong with my photo a day, I am actually enjoying doing this. I am also playing around with Photoshop and trying different effects on my photos. Some I like, some I am not too keen on but it is fun and I am learning heaps. We have been able to access some tutorials and they have been fantasic - so easy to follow. Mind you I need to watch them several times before it all sinks in.
"Lips" (the X-Box version of Singstar) is hugely popular in this house at the moment. We have a constant stream of kids coming through the house and it is getting a fair workover. I am sure the neighbours must be starting to get a little sick of hearing some of the songs. Some more shots of these keen singstars.
My two neices are really funny to watch. They are hugely competitive- they were still going strong at 1.30am the other morning. I struggle - it is hard to read the words, the pitch line and the actions all at the same time.
Well it is bed time for me - I am fighting another cold - sore throat, runny nose, blocked ears, and I can't afford to take a day off so I need some early nights to look after myself.
