Snow, snow go away........

In the last 2 days we have gotten aleast 2 foot of snow. I just got back inside from shoveling and I am pooped! I really don't like winter at all, I live in the wrong part of the country. This winter has been just rotten so cold and tons of snow. I don't think spring is ever going to get here, no matter what the silly groundhog said......
Anyway now that I am done ranting about the weather here in northern Michigan I have some exciting news. The Digital Candy Blog has a really cool new challenge. Its the Sherbert Dip Blog Challenge and you get a really cool mini kit to work with and for completing you get the awesome Tatty Grid Alpha. Here is the page I did for the challenge.

Another layout.

I just finished my tattoo layout. I don't think I am 100% happy with it. I think it is lacking something. I was working for 3 days on this page and I just could not get my groove on. Anyway, this is a page of me getting my very first tattoo. It took me 12 years to finally decided to get one. Tattoos are forever and I wanted to make sure I was ready for one. Now I am ready to get another one, I am addicted......

I learned a new technique.

I just love seeing this technique used. I see so many great pages being used with extraction pictures. This is my first real try at it and I really liked how it turned out. I definitely will be using this techinque more often.

Journaling Reads: I thought of you with love today but that is nothing new
I thought about you yesterday and days before that too,
I think of you in silence I often speak your name
All I have are memories and your picture in a frame
Your memory is my keepsake with which I’ll never part
God has you in His keeping I have you in my heart. Tweet

A new year...
