clarification of gallon, pint, ounce I don't mean it in literal terms here is a great example the gallon in this case in the striped paper pint is the blue and ounce is the brown did that help? I'm sorry I wasn't clear it's been a while we will save the color wheel for another day (I have know ideal how I managed to turn that picture sideways but I did, can you tell I'm not a techno geek? ) On another subject Rod and I had a good visit with old friends last night (we used to be neighbors ) way back in like about 10 years ago we had some of the best neighbors in the world. Jeff and Amy (we also had other good neighbors Juanita and her family, but that's a story for later) and there children Kori, Trent and Jessie (Trent and Jessie are twins). It was great to see there happy family and there smiling faces. That's all for now blessings a

it's color class part 1

OK so Friday and Saturday were great I'm ready for more! I thought you all might enjoy a color class Heather taught most of this to me back in the day when she taught. most of this info is from her class so keep that in mind color how much? remember : Gallon, pint, ounce think of it in terms of paint or like you decorate a room wall color, carpet color, molding(trim). Same thing just calling it something else, use your colors on your page in that order. -neutrals are always white black grey and tan so you can always add them in the mix remember this the exceptions monochromatic and 2 tone monochromatic paper schemes should follow a similar patter with a dominate color to start try to work in parts such as 3,5, or 7 but all in the same color family. Neutrals are usually just black and white in monochromatic themes (sometimes grey) 2 tone is just exactly what it sounds like 2 tones of color used equally. Neutrals can be tricky with 2 tone so just keep it as simple as possible an...

it is has come to pass

yes my dear scrappers today is the day I must ........ ask for a brief moment of silence while we morn for me I must CLEAN MY HOUSE (we are having company Sunday or Monday). Seeing that I haven't done that for a a while well it's gong to take a bit of time so it's cutting to my extra curricular activities. I believe everyone else dreads "cleaning" too, at least its not one of those times where you know now matter how much you do it wont be enough . I just need to clear he tables, put a few scrapbooking things away and herd up all the dust bunnies. not horrible It's just that that darn cleaning woman asks way to much so I cant hire her to pick up after me and well I just wanted to whine a bit this morning (and thanks, but no thanks I don't want any cheese with my whine). moving on i had no ideal about the paper dolls cartridge, so and I up with the trends or what? It's just scrapbooking intuition ; ) No not really just a plain old thought that some...

This is Melissa my cousin who I have spent many childhood hours with. Melissa and I are the youngest in my mothers family so we were perfect playmates for one another. She was the only person to play with my age in my mothers family or my dad's. Every holiday, extended weekend, and summer vacation we had a chance to spend time with one another cause i was always in her neck of the woods. While we worked on our uno game my mom and her dad enjoyed re hashing there childhood. Yes it was a very important day Sunday I got to spend a bit of time with her and her family, it meant so much to both of us to be able to see one another it was the first time in a very long time. For a moment we we young again.

scrapps

On the thing for Nancy I'm going use a not to old paper pack of ck paper. I want to use it up and this sound like a great time to get started. So that's what I'm going to go do here in a bit. I did 2 last night so hopefully more will follow. I would have posted earlier but I was catching up on some sleep I have not slept well since Thursday night so it was great this morning I woke up at 9 and feel some what refreshed and some what caffeinated thanks to my tea. well scrappers I'm so excited about this weekend I cant wait and I'm already thinking what am I going to work on? have no clue at the moment I have way to many options. I must remember that back in January I declared this the "Finish" year where it's my goal to work on those forgotten and un finished pages (including groan and moan JOURNALING ugh). I also declared it the year of the "I'm going to try and use less paper" and "throw less paper away", the update is : I have...
