For Shimelle's Journal Your Christmas! I love my album from last year and can't wait to get started on this years. I have my album and papers ready to go. I think the best thing about this class is looking back over last years albums and seeing all the things I love about this time of year. And another great thing is that once you sign up for it that's it, you have acess to it year after year. Can't beat that!
I created my first digital layout! Hot Damn!
I've always liked the calendar kits that come out this time of year and thought one would be a perfect gift for my mom. So after seeing that Heather Anne Melzer had come out with her 2009 Calendar Kit I thought I would give it a try. After watching a few tutorials over at Two Peas I was ready to create. It was so easy and since I'm more of a visual learner the video tutorials really helped. My eyes have been opened to a whole new world of scrapbooking. Not that I'll ever leave the paper and glue world but for a quick gift this is a good alternative.
But one thing I have learned is that I need a new version of Photoshop Elements, I have an old one which is not compatable with Windows Vista, the program works but it does funky things to my pages while I'm working on them. So I'll be getting Photoshop Elements 7 this week, I've been meaning to update the program but this is a good excuse to do it.
I am off to create more pages!
but just in case you are..
cannot wait for this moive to come out!
People often say that, in a democracy, decisions are made by a majority of the people. Of course, that is not true. Decisions are made by a majority of those who make themselves heard and who vote - a very different thing. ~Walter H. Judd

Sunday nights can not come fast enough for me right now. Are you watching it?
It's based on a series of books by Charlaine Harris called the Southern Vampire Mysteries. Right now I'm reading the first book, Dead Until Dark, very good. The show is based on the book but Alan Balls has changed a lot of stuff so it will be interesting to see his interpretation of it. If you need a vampire fix after Twilight I recommend the books. The show is a bit racy, but then again it is HBO. So don't say I didn't warn you. ;) There are only three episodes left and word is that they have started working on series two. If you have DVR On Demand you can catch up on the shows, but if you don't have HBO I highly recommend the books and wait for the show to come out on DVD.
And another reason I love watching this show is that there is some serious eye candy!
