I would have loved to scrap these photos in color, but Atticus looked SO red in the color photos. I don't remember him being THAT color! So b&w seemed better to me. I used a new kit by Amanda Heimann called Just Ducky, available at Plain Digital Wrapper. You can find it here...

The dogs are SO curious when the baby is around. But, they are not used to babies, so we can only let them near him under close supervision. Here Punkin gets a very closely supervised "first sniff" of Atticus. I used Nina's "Friends" kit for this page. The heart is by Traci...

Johnstown, PA is my parents' home town. While the city has fallen on economic hard times, it has a rich history, including one of the nation's worst natural disasters. I have found an internet site (www.robertpence.com) which features points of interest, some of which I remember, in a phototour...

I seldom scrap commercial pictures, but I thought this one was particularly well done for a school picture and I thought it might be important to my stepdaughter and DH to see it scrapped. I scraplifted a layout by inskidahv which can be seen here...

This is one of the photos from our trip to Oxnard last fall. People ask me "why Oxnard?" and I have to say that there's little along the coast that isn't beautiful and photo-worthy. I used the new customer appreciation kit from NDISB called Vacanza Piena di Sole. The bow is recolored...

Just a tongue in cheek layout about this photo of Joe taken in old town San Diego. I actually thought this was a wooden Indian til I looked at if closer and discovered it is really a wooden Spaniard. I used Traci Reed's Ruffled Shirt kit for this page. I also used a template by Deb Fisher. Deb...

I took these photos of Will a couple of months ago and thought they turned out particularly well. I did this layout for Lifts with a Twist. The blue paper and glitter frame are from Amanda Rockwell's Neon Floral; the alpha is Amanda's After the Rain; the other glitter elements are from Amanda's...

Atticus is a darling little boy who at 5 months, still has beautiful blue eyes, a sweet temperment, and a pnk bow of a mouth. But, he has what Mommy calls "Elf Ears". Once he gets more hair, they'll be less noticeable, but I can see where she gets the name...... I used Nina's new kit...

The blending on this is superb! Marci

I came across a website (www.robertpence.com)that features photos of Johnstown, PA--my parents' hometown, a place I visited every summer growing up. A trip to pick up Coney Island Hot Dogs was mandatory at least once every year. I remember them as being particularly yummy. I used Amanda...

ust some photos of DGS at bat in a recent ball game. He has been hanging his head in total defeat every time he struck out, but Grandpa has been coaching him and he hit base hits twice in 4 times at bat. We're really proud of him because his attitude is so much better now that he understands...

Gorgeous photos of you, Lena. Love the soft colors......... Marci

We found this beautiful Bird of Paradise plant on the grounds of Mission San Diego de Alcala. This started out as part of last week's Lift with a Twist, but, obviously, I didn't get it posted in time.The green bg paper is from Deb F's That's my Hope kit. The swirl is by Ronna Penner, used as a...

This little cutie is the younger sister of one of DGS's softball team members. She is so full of energy and personality and beautiful to boot. I used Deb Fisher's Classic Baby Girl kit for this. Deb recently lost her husband and is now left to raise their 7 children alone. Deb is a talented...

Months ago, I was checking out photos on Stock Exchange and ran across this photo of the marquise outside the Flamingo Hilton. For decades I've looked at this from the road, but never up close like this. Thought it was fun to "see" it up close and downloaded the photo. Loved it with...

Couldn't resist scrapping these photos of Atticus in this funky little hat. This started as a scraplift of Kellie P for the scraplift challenge at The Digi Shoppe, but it kinda took on a life of it's own. The kraft paper is by Theresa Hernandez. Red paper by Trish Jones. All flowers are by Jen...

This photo of wildflowers blooming along an Oregon trail was taken by a family friend. I used Katie the Scrapbook Lady's Fresh Fabric Paper for this layout. You can find Katie's Fresh Fabric Kit at The Digishoppe.

A rare photo of me, posing with a beautiful bougainvilla bush while we were in California. I was copying a professional photographer who was using this as a background for her photos of a wedding party. I used Amanda Rockwell's Strawberry Patch kit for this. The white paper is from Amanda's The...

While we were in San Diego, we visited the Bazaar Del Mundo. It is such a colorful place! I used Amanda Heimann's new kit, Cinco de Mayo, available at Plain Digital Wrapper. The blue paper is by Amanda Rockwell, the pink paper is by Christy Lyle and the colorful paper flowers are by Theresa...
