Tooting My Own Horn

I don't feel like working on any kits, but I can't keep Photoshop closed. So- I've been catching up on my scrapbooking. It's such a relief to be able to do something that I don't have to be perfect at. And, ok, I'll admit it- I'm still doing what I can to save my pen.

I love this picture of Cody and his brothers.












Yet another one, this one is about Cody's soccer coach.
















Another neat picture that I like a lot- Dylan eating his ice cream. I really like how this layout turned out, with the cicle and the strips of paper.

















Not my favorite, but I really like how the star turned out. When I saw the pictures a couple months ago, I couldn't help but laugh out loud at them. The best pictures of Cody really aren't the best pictures- but they are hilarious!














And- one about me. I laugh at the books in this picture- Elie Wiesel, Laura Ingalls Wilder, Janet Finch, and others share my nightstand. Yep- my taste in books is broad.

And look at those papers- love them! I went on a shopping spree last weekend. It's funny, really. I went in looking for one paper pack. Saw that she was having a sale and stocked up.

I'm loving the way that freestyle looks, but find that it's hard for me to use doodles all that often. That's what I'm working out right now. I have this cute idea for a layout that involves tons of flowers, but I can't seem to get it right. ARGH! Driving me nuts!

Veggieville has added a ton of new garden girls and I'm so excited to see what this means for the digital board there! I wonder if this means that we'll get more kits (or a wider variety of them). Oh- and speaking of Veggieville, can I just say that it sucks being broke? Check these out:












and...
Both of these have ended up in my Wish List. I'm thinking that with some cute swirly doodles like these I might actually be able to doodle more on my pages. Only a few more days until I get paid and you bet that I'm buying these cute brushes. Oh- and some others, because I love Rhonna's brushes. They're doodle-y without being 'doodle-y' (does that make any sense at all?).

I've probably bored you all to death by now. Mike has said that we might not be keeping another kitty besides Pumpkin, but we'll see about that. He asked me today which cat I'm taking out to my parents' tomorrow. I didn't know that I was taking a cat to my parents' tomorrow. It looks like Moo is moving tomorrow (that is- if I feel like taking a cat with me).

Pumpkin is definitely my kitty. I can't sit on the couch without him cuddling up to me. He comes to bed with me and cuddles next to me before I fall asleep and he begins his nightly prowls.
