I go through these phases where I create all sorts of goodies and right now I’m all about digital scrapbooking. I love, love the flexibility it gives me. I can scrap anywhere, at any time. Love it.
Here are a few new pages I’ve created.

My hubby was out of town this weekend, so I have had lots of time to create. I have been working on some digi layouts and wanted to share them!
I’m still working on a few more and hope to have them done soon … it’s so nice to feel productive!

What’s new you ask? I’ve been enjoying some much needed down time at home. Lots of snuggles. Lots of rest. And not very much Crazy Daisy. I needed a break from everything and my kiddos needed their mama. It’s been super nice.
But, there are some things I have been doing. I am taking a course with Big Picture Classses … Me: The Abridged Version taught by Cathy Zielske. I’m so loving it. It is super heavy on the writing, which is right up my alley. I’m doing my book 100 percent digi, so I’m hoping to finish it up soon and be able to share it. It’s been a great process.
I’m reading “Encyclopedia of an Ordinary Life” by Amy Krouse Rosenthal. The book was Cathy’s inspiration for her Big Picture class and it’s quite inspiring. It’s an easy read and I highly recommend it.
I had a bunch of digi layouts (32 to be exact) printed at Persnickety Prints. They are having their semi-annual sale and 12×12 prints are just $1.49. The sale goes through tomorrow, Oct. 4. I can’t wait to get them and slide them into an album!
Check out some of these adorable layouts from our fab design team … if you’re like me, you’re still working through your September kit and could use a little inspiration!

Don’t you just love what Amber did in the layout above?
She stitched around some of the stars on the patterned paper. So cute. So clever.
I’m in Rio right now. I had to stay over the weekend, which isn’t something I do often. Since I’ve been to Rio so many times there’s not a lot of new things for me to see and do. And, I’m feeling rather lazy. So instead of exploring a lot this weekend, I have been scrapping like a mad woman. I’ve done a bunch of all digital layouts (I’m taking one of Jessica Sprague’s digi classes) and I thought I’d share them with you.
I have to say … I think I might just be more of a digi scrapper than a paper scrapper. I never thought I’d say that and though I won’t EVER give up paper crafting … I’m loving the digital tools and being able to scrap while I’m away from home.
I’m think that my goal this week is going to be to take a few digi templates I’ve already used and tweak them in some way to make the different. I want to see just how much use I can get out of a single template!
What’s new?
Well, for starters … I got a new camera. I have been wanting a new camera for a very long. I have done my research. I have window shopped. I have drooled. And I was just waiting for my husband’s stamp of approval. The stamp cam last Friday and I went right out and got this little guy:
It’s a EOS Rebel T1i with EF-S 18-55mm IS and I’m in heaven. This is my first Digitial SLR and I love, love, love it. I have always used a basic point and shoot camera and now that I’ve gone this route, I’ll never be able to go back. The pictures, even on auto mode, are so much better. I have been having a blast taking pictures of everything.
I’m in the second week of Shimelle‘s “Love Your Pictures, Love Your Pages” online class. I’m happy to say I’m keeping up and have created 4 new layouts as part of the class. Here’s a look at what I’ve been working on.
