I love the sweet pictures on this page... my dad was out working in the garden and the grandkids were out playing in the pastures... running in the irrigation water, feeding the horse next door and just having fun with cousins.  It makes my heart happy. 

Love the colors in this kit and thought the title worked well with the pictures.

Quick Pages...

My super cute and incredibly talented friend Joanna has started designing quick pages... I totally love her style!

I love that all I have to do is open the page in Photoshop or PSE, add photos andjournaling and in less than 10 minutes I have a cute page!!

Here's a page I did on Buddy's first trip to BYU using one of Joanna's quick pages... cute and done in minutes!

 

Here's a few of her new designs

Hello Cuteness

I'm totally in love with Cathy Zielske... I've been in love with her clean and simple style for years... and now she's designing digital templates.  My life is now complete.  Seriously.  Brilliant.

(Click on the link to view her pages using the same template)

This page is super duper simple... but its nice to step away from product every once in awhile and focus on the story and picture.  I think that's just the way Cathy would like it (I hope).

Puppy Love...

the Ettes have the cutest new chore chart available... but I'm not really in a place where I need a chore chart yet (unless its a honey-do list for Joey)... so I just decided to make pages with all the cute accents in the kit.  Cute cute accents.

This month the Ettes are guest designers at www.scraporchard.com... you can pick up the fun kit here.

 

Feeding Ducks

This is one of my favoritest pages... nice and simple and fun pictures.
