Baby Days

The 4 Play Challenge at Design House Digital this week was interesting. The four kits that were selected included no embellishments - just template, paper, alpha, and an overlay. It was refreshing not to have to worry about embellishments, especially clustering and layering them. And the template was really fun - lots of blending. Here are my results. I love the simplicity of it!

DigiDare #290 - The Librarian

This week's DigiDare was pretty fun since it was something to add to my All About Me collection. The dare - scrap about what you wanted to be when you grew up.

I know lots of us had dreams that just didn't actually become reality. I took a completely different route from becoming a librarian. However, it was still fun to remember what I wanted to be when I was six years old.

R-R-R-R-Ruffles!

Are ruffles the new trend in scrapbooking? I just saw these new Ombre Ruffles: Vol. 2 from Audrey Neal, and it is all about ruffles! Even though I'm not a ruffle kind of girl (unless it's potato chips, lol), I think these are pretty cute! Audrey also has a ruffled paper pack - Ombre Ruffles Paper Pack - if you'd like to get your digital ruffles collection started.

I'll admit, I'm not sure how I would use these yet, but at a bargain price of $1 (until Thursday), I may just have to pick them up and try them out!
