XO XO

I love it when you have a "traditional" picture. And I guess this one isn't too much of a tradition, but since it's the second time I've done it, I'll probably end up doing it again and it'll BECOME a tradition...LOL!!

This photo was taken on the train at Lake Compounce. When we go to Lake Compounce, we tend to jump on the train first, which takes you to the other side of the park (it's an amusement park like a Six Flags). We jump on the Water Rafting ride, usually right when the park opens, and ride it as many times as possible as there's not usually a line at that time. Then we continue on with the rest of the day soaked! Well...it's usually hot and we usually wear clothes that dry off relatively quickly, but...

Musn't Oversleep

I really love how this layout came out! The title was actually a word art by Studio Bethany, but it just didn't really match the layout, so I recreated it using a font and the alphabet that came with the kit!

Another day...another layout! LOL

Nook

I totally LOVE to read. As soon as they came out, I "needed" the Barnes & Noble Nook! I did the research and this is the device I though would suit me best! Totally love it and would not want to have to be without it! Besides the fact that I can take it with me everywhere and buy a new book anywhere I am, since I recently moved I have MUCH less space than before and all the books I had can now be put on this device that is about the size of ONE book! Actually thinner! If you're on the fence - BUY IT!!

Anyway, figured my love of my nook deserved a layout....

The Digi Dares

I hadn't played around with the Digi Dares in a while, and now I have done two in like 7 days of one another! LOL

This is for this week's dare - #193...the dare flair:
  • Main photo in three sections - now, I might have cheated here, but I suppose it's open to interpretation. Although the main photo is obviously the background, I did take that photo and split it in three below. I am thinking I'm covered.
  • Use water, waves, droplets on the layout
  • At least three shades of blue
  • One word title!


This was for the previous dare - #192 - Famous Last Words

Dare Flair:
  • At least 5 phrases that have stuck with you
  • Credit who said it
  • Use Arrows
  • At least one letter or symbol from your favorite alpha

Credits go to:
  • HAPPY - Kit is Refreshed by Amy Stoffel; Border by Sahlin Studio, Alpha by CD Mukosky (excuse the spelling if it's wrong!); Template by Scrapping with Liz
  • WE SAID - Kit is Poseys & Pinwheels by Tracie Stroud & Decrow Designs
And that's all! Now I am waiting for the next dare....every so patiently....NOT!!!
