My First Alpha

I really have no ambitions to be a 'designer' but I have been taking the wonderful tutorials at Digiscrapdesigner - well worth the $35 annual fee. Anyway I am playing around w/an alpha featured in the LO below (the rest of the stuff is by Scrapartist's Michele Coleman and Nancy Janitz - I only wish I was that good!). Click on image for full credits or to leave some love.

Anyway I will offer this alpha in some form once it is perfected. Stay tuned!

For the Love of Bunnies

Bunnies are such gentle souls. Ms. Penelope Rose, my beautiful big white bunny often gets less attention than Steinway but I have been asked to invest in her health and well being via a sizeable vet bill and it made me realize how much I love her. She is the sweetest, most gentle soul and a reassuring presence who shares my bedroom. Thank you Jesus for my beautiful bunny!

I mentioned this situation at DST and this very nice designer gave me a gift certificate to her store - I am always amazed at the thoughtfulness and kindness of the digital scrap community.

Some Nice Things...

I am very privileged to be a guest CT for Sylvie aka Sausan Designs @ PlainDigitalWrapper.

As someone who is deep into the altered/collage style I can say that her Altered Aristry products are primo artistic materials for the discerning scrapper.

Even if you don't think you're all that artsy, her stuff will confer instant 'cool artist' status to your layout.
I was honored to get named LO of the Day @ the Digichick.

This is the LO I did of my Dad using Jan Crowley's Portobello Road kit. It was really fun to do. I actually got the elements to look three dimensional.

The last thing is I actually met a fellow digiscrapper 'in real life' - Mary Rose (Dating_Revolutionist) of Digishoptalk and I met at Panera after a class let by some gals who run DigiscrapPlace.com - I hope to get together again w/her and more Columbus Ohio digiscrappers.
