Uh oh, I might be having some visitors so I guess I'd better post today. Last night was cool, I did my first every digital layout. I've been soooo against them; really, I would bash anyone that did them and would say that it's an easy way out. But I was in a predicament last night and, well, needed an easy way out! But I found that you can be just as creative digitally as you can at the table. I have to say that I still prefer to touch, feel, smell, etc...my scrappin' stuff, but I will be doing at least one more digital layout before the LOAD project is over. I'm loving LOAD; it has helped me to keep a comittment every night for over 3 weeks now and that feels good; it has also helped me venture out to try new things (like digital!) and to scrap themes I would never think of. I have to say that I'll be glad when it's over; I'm ready to make some cards and start selling and I'm a little burned out, but all in all, it's been an incredible project. And I really do feel so proud. And, the best news of all, we ended up not going out of town so now I don't have to freak out! Well, I'm off...my letter tonight is Z, for Izzie!

I have a header!

I have been working on Lain Ehman's LOAD project all month and it has been quite a challenge. LOAD, "Layout of the Day", requires us to scrapbook a layout everyday for one month. Lain sends prompts each night for artistic inspiration but there have been a few nights when I have almost not made the cut off. Tonight's challenge was to scrap about our blog or someone else's; I decided to take the opportunity to make my header so here 'tis. I'm so glad I know Photoshop, man, it comes in handy.
