Can you teach an old dog new tricks????
I certainly hope so! Took the plunge and re-installed my Photoshop Elements 4.0 software tonight. I've been wanting, since even before I got into digi scrapping, to learn PSE and just have never been willing to really take the time, I'd learn a step and then not do anything with it for months on end and forget and then get frustrated!! While I really enjoy using Microsoft's Digital Image Suite, it's super easy to learn, I finally decided that now is the time to learn PSE, with the hopes that once I learn that, I can then head into CS2 so that I can use some of the totally cool actions I've seen others use (but wait, I'm soooo getting ahead of myself!)...
so, I loaded the software...step one!, and have actually gotten a good handle on using the Photo Browser/Organizer...who knows, maybe my working with DIP has helped me understand the lingo and use's better..I dunno...anywho, got all my photos that were stored on my harddrive (which isn't too many, just the ones I hadn't gotten to moving to my external yet) into the organizer and tagged and into collections so that when I wanna scrap a picture of Miss Mandi, I click on the Mandi tag and viola!! there they all are, and in date order too!!! Big steps tonight huh? Tomorrow I'll try and unzip some of my "waiting to be unzipped" kits and see if I can organize them in there as well..of course, now this means I will need to organize all the hundreds of kits, I spent hours organizing into DIP, into PSE (they are all on an external too!)oh well....good practice right?
Then maybe, and that's a big maybe, I can throw together a simple layout in PSE....wish me luck!
That's how I spent this evening. Mandi and I just shared a taffy apple (yumm-o) and I'm about to get into my pj's and read my newest book (finished the Asperger's book last night..wow, what a read that was!). I'm now reading "90 minutes in Heaven" by Don Piper, so far, it's got me hooked! Anyways, need to make some tea and grab my book.
Lastly, I feel the need to share a picture and since I don't have a current layout, I'll share a picture that was taken of Roger and me about two weeks ago. We went to a fancy schmancy surprise 40th birthday bash for our neighbor...held at this beautiful historical mansion in town! I don't normally get to dress up much so I welcomed the opportunity to put on my party duds!! My mom took the picture of Roger and I...isn't it sad that every stinkin picture we take, we seem to take in this same place in our house??!! What the heck is that all about?? I'd say it's time to move to another room huh? Don't ya love the shadows behind us...makes us both look like, well..I don't really know LOL! Anyways, here we are!
so with that, I'll say:
until next time,
Blessings!

Some family time...
This weekend we decided to take advantage of the beautiful weather and get outdoors! Of course, being October that meant a pumpkin patch visit. Roger and I took Mandi up to Wisconsin to an apple orchard/pumpkin farm for the afternoon, wow, what an experience. Now, rock on all you "people" people, but Roger and I don't do well in the masses...they, well, they tend to annoy the heck outta us LOL! So, a crowded pumpkin farm might not have been the best idea but we rolled with it! I took some pictures of our adventure...of course I stink at photos and even this one that I took of Roger and Mandi isn't the best but it'll do for my layouts!
We came home with a bag of fresh picked apples..Yumm! and two pumpkins for the front porch! all in all, a pretty good day and it was nice to get out and enjoy our indian summer that we seem to be having here in the midwest!
Didn't get a lick of scrapping done this weekend, that's the plan for this week....want to make a mini album, and I have a couple cards I need to do...that and clean house as Roger left again today for parts unknown! (well, I do know but....)
So, it's now off to put on the jammies and read for awhile! I've almost finished my book on Asperger's and I've got a pile of books just waiting to be read...think I'll start with Sara Gruen's "Water for Elephants"...looks really good! Ask me later about my newest adopted friend!
Until next time,
Blessings!

It's all about the boobs!!
Yep, you read that right! Boobs, tits, ta-ta's, knockers, hooters, a rack..whatever you call 'em, simply put, breasts!! I'm talking 'bout em! and that is because......
It's October and it's Breast Cancer Awareness month. I donate to this cause because, well, because I want to see cures, I want to see less and less women suffer this disease, I don't want my daughter to ever have to hear that she has breast cancer. I donate because I know people who have lost their battle with breast cancer. I donate because I know people who have survived their battle with breast cancer. I donate because I care. I'm asking that each of you dig into your pockets if you can and donate something...anything to breast cancer research. The very least you can all do is give a free mamogram to a goddess like yourself. Seriously, did you know that the Breast Cancer Site has a place you can go to, just click on a link and bang, you've donated a free mamogram! Nothing else needed, no forms to fill out, no personal information to be given, just a simple click! Please, I ask you to take a minute and CLICK!You will feel so good having done it and it just might save someone's life...how awesome is that? Talk about a heck of a RAK huh?
That being said, today's post is gonna be just this...again, please take one minute of your day and CLICK!
Until next time,
Blessings!

Last SISter layout!
Well, finished up the last of the layouts from the IL/WI SISter crop! Again, started this one and did everything but the title at the crop...put that on today!
I haven't been doing a ton of multi picture layouts recently so this one kinda looks funny to me! These pics were taken a couple years back....we took Mandi to a little pumpkin farm just down the road from our house...it's were we will probably go again this year! I used the new Melissa Francis fall papers that I bought while out in Arizona last month, some Fancy Pants crochet flowers, buttons (of course) and a little bit of Hambly!! The title is done using Heidi Swapp chipboard letters...and it's hard to see but I added some faux stitching rub-ons to the top and side of the pics. One more for the pizza box!! LOL
So, today I just kinda hung out...played around on the computer, finished the laundry, ran a few errands this morning...FINALLY ordered some new patio slider doors as our other ones totally suck!!! Last winter they continually got iced up, snow would collect in the tracks and they were almost impossible to close...ya shoulda seen me each time Ozzi wanted to go out, I'd have to un-jam the doors with a butter knife and a hair dryer..swore to Roger that this winter we would have new doors before the snow flies...so today I placed the order...should take about 3 weeks or so for them to come in and then we can install!!! Next on the list is a new front door...I'd love an all wood one!!
Oh yeah, just downloaded a new tune for my iPod...the Halloween theme song...so love that song and it's perfect to have playing at night in October, dontcha think?!
Tonight is Grey's...yippee, Mandi has already made mention to me (she loves this show)gotta love Thursday nights and Grey's..working on a new layout...maybe I'll get it finished tomorrow...
Until next time,
Blessings!

VAN HALEN!!!!!!!!!!!!
so, yep, today I'm still a bit fuzzy LOL...but it's not cause I drank too much or anything else, it's that I am head over heals in "crush" with Dave!!, that and my 40-something ears maybe can't handle all the loudness of a concert (heehee)...seriously, last night was a total dream come true!!! Seeing David Lee Roth back as the front man for Van Halen was it for me!! I've never, ever, EVER been a Van Hagar fan. Now, some of Sammy's tunes are ok, but I've just never liked Van Halen as much as when Diamond Dave was with em!
So, ladies, what can I say...he is freakin' HOT!!!! His body, OH MY GOSH!!! I coulda looked at him all night!! I mean, look at this:
I know, I know...he is a bit on the older side, but heck, I'm not a young-en either LOL!! I say he looks soooo much better now than his younger days...anyways, the pictures don't do him justice! His abs are cut man...so seriously cut that it's crazy and his tush...please don't get me started LOL..
okay, enough droolage for me....here are a few more concert pics...they are not taken from last night, but the costumes (if ya call the wardrobe that) are all the same, the set is the same, everything is dead on except that they were not taken in Chicago!!
Anyways, point is, I have marked another "to do" off my list, and that feels great! I had a fabulous time, probably more so than if I had seen them in my younger days...I have a great memory, saw some incredible eye candy and listened to tunes I've loved for more than half my life!! Thank you Van Halen! Thank you for bringing back Dave, for a wonderful night and for a terrific memory that I'll take with me! And, by the way, for Eddie to be coming off of throat cancer...man his guitar skills are still THE BEST!!!! Rock on dude!
Enjoy my video..."Jump" of course was the encore and the crowd went ballistic!!! Dave still has the jumps, the kicks, the moves....it's all good!
Oh yeah, for those that have asked....my grandmother's maiden name is Roth...according to my cousin Stacey Roth, Dave and I are like cousins somehow...very, very, very....soooo stinkin' very distant, but nonetheless cousins...there ya have it!
Until next time,
Blessings!

My Sweet Love
Well hiya! Just posting a quick share of another layout that I did at the IL/WI SISters crop a few weekends back! This one I started at the crop but put the finishing touches to it last night in fact, while listening to some Michael Buble!! His new song "Everything" is about my favorite song right now!! Oh such good ear candy!!
I'm not too sure how I feel about this layout though. I want to really like it, but I think that it's just..eh, eh for me! I love the picture of Mandi, she was (and still is in my opinion) so stinkin' cute!! Maybe if I had made the photo a bit larger?? I dunno...anyways, I'm not re-doing it so it will go into the album (or should I say pizza box) the way it is!! I used Bazzill, some Cloud Nine patterned paper, paint, felt, flowers, chipboard, Heidi Swapp Ghost Letters, buttons (when don't I use buttons LOL) and some Prima bling...oh yeah, cut the flowers out of patterned paper and used some Stickles to bling um up!!
I have one more layout left to share from the crop but it will have to wait until my next post...still need to put a title on it or something!
In other exciting scrappy news...CKU is coming back to Chicago!! WAHOOOO!!! Yep, I'm planning on being there in March for all it's scrappy fun!! Got a yahoo group started for it so if anyone is interested in attending CKU Chicago 2008, leave me a comment and I'll send ya an invite to the group. Every CKU I've done I've always participated in the Yahoo groups that go with it. You meet so many people, have a chance to join some really fun swaps and stuff and learn a ton about CKU as well. I highly recommend joining one if you plan on going to a CKU this year!!
Okay, that is about all for now. Gotta go get myself all ready...yep, tonight is the night...it's the night I've waited almost 22 years (probably even more LOL) for...it's the night that is going down in my "to see before I die" list...Yep, Roger and I are heading to the Allstate Arena to see VAN HALEN!!! Diamond Dave is back as front man and this is a dream come true for me!!! Ask me sometime how I'm related to him (wink)....anyways, I'm so excited I can hardly stand it...got my outfit all set, just gotta jump in the shower and get going...the limo (yes, we are going in style man!!) is coming in about an hour to cruise us over to the concert!!!
I'll be back tomorrow with details for sure, and, as you could guess, a new video!!
Until next time,
ROCK ON MAN!!!

Our Gang!
So, here is another layout that I finished at the SIS crop that I attended a couple weeks back! I had such a hard time photographing this puppy....kept coming out blurry on me, if I used a flash it reflected back into the photo...so, I eventually put it up against a small frame I had and took pics that way...course I didn't shoot from above so when I cropped it, it's not all together that straight!! UGH!!! I promise everything is on there straight when you see it in person! LOL
Anyways, here it is: This is a picture taken of my dad and his sister, my Aunt Lynn, when they were kids! Do ya'll remember the Little Rascals? Ya know, Spanky, Alfalfa, Buckwheat and the gang? Well, my dad and aunt, when they were kids, were in an Our Gang (that is what they were called way back then) movie!! Yep, starred right up there with Spanky and Alfalfa!! How freakin' cool is that? This picture was taken on set, while they were in their costumes. The original photo that I have is teeny tiny so I scanned it and printed it out larger...I'm not great at the photo scanning/adjusting thing so this was as good as it got! In person it looks alot better! So, may I present, two of the "Our Gang" players...drum roll please....Philip and Adeline Lindsey!!
I tried to use papers and embellies that would give it a more vintage-y feel...it's simple but I like it! Actually used some of my own handwriting for the journaling (can you believe that!!!???)not sure if I like that but this layout is done!!
Okay, that's about all for this post...short and sweet! Hope everyone had a great weekend...
Until next time,
Blessings!

SISter Crop!
So, last weekend was our long awaited SISter crop! What is a SISter crop you ask? It was a crop that we put together with all the Illinois and Wisconsin Scrap In Style TV sisters. In case you haven't had a chance to check it out, Scrap In Style TV is da bomb!! It is such a terrific site, and I tell ya, since joining in June I haven't once gone back to my other haunt, 2Peas!!
Anyways, a bunch of us "SISters" (SIS is short for scrap in style), got together and spent the entire weekend at the Regency Inn in Antioch croppin' and talkin' and laughin' and eatin' the weekend away! Amazing as it sounds, I actually got 5 layouts completed, which is a record for me!!
We asked a very nice gentleman from the lobby if he would be kind enough to take our picture (of course this involved about 3 different cameras...we are scrapbookers ya know!), and this was the best of them, taken with Elly's camera!
Now doesn't this look like an awesome group of girls?!!
I had such a great time, feel badly in a way that it is all said and done though..we are talking about getting together soon to do an Archiver's crop though so hopefully that won't be too long!
So, um, yeah...5 layouts!! The first one is a layout I actually started awhile back, but I worked on it first at the crop and finished it off...thanks to Cathy, I am now an official Stickles addict!! This was a photo of Amanda when she was about 3 years old. We took her for the day up to Lake Geneva to the beach and she LOVED it!!
This next layout, to be fair, I started at the crop but didn't finish..it was the last hour of the crop and my mojo was pretty much gone! I had cut the background paper (Bazzill of course) and picked out the picture but that was about all I did! Last night I put this one together and I'm pretty pleased with how it turned out. Can I also just say that I am LOVING the 6x12 format!!! I have seen a bunch of this size layouts all over SIS and have been wanting to give it a try...Martha gave me so much inspiration at the crop this weekend with her album of 6x12's that I knew I had to do one immediately!! I think this might just be a new size for me...already thinking I need to do an Ozzi album all in 6x12!!
Isn't my little guy just the cutest?! I swear, I never get enough of him, totally love me my Ozzi!!
I'll post some more layouts later...been fighting a migraine today, not sure if it's the weather or what...sure hope it's not me trying to get a cold, got a ton of fun stuff planned through next Tuesday and I soooo don't want to be feeling sick!
Alrighty then, until next time,
Blessings!

Wow..October Already and my new BFF!!
Yep, bad blogger! I know, just had a really busy couple weeks here and no time to jump on the 'ol blog and update!
Let's see...yeah, got a new BFF, her name is Cathy! Love ya girlfriend!! Cathy and I met about a year ago at a photography class. We had been on 2peas for awhile, trying to hook up because I knew that she lived by me and we were just never able to get together...fast forward to a photo class that I signed up for at our local community college last spring...well...I'm in class and the teach is taking attendance, calling our names and I hear her name called (she was late though and not there yet), so she walks in and sits right next to me. The class begins and during a break, I leaned over and said "Are you Cathy..." she said "yes" and so I introduced myself and we've been friends ever since! A couple weekends ago we met at Archiver's for a mania with a bunch of our other friends and had a blast! I worked on my Christmas cards (almost finished them...and I can't really share them yet) and Cathy worked on the fabulous layout that moved her forward in the Bad Girls Top Designer challenge (let me just say, that layout rocked!!!)...in between some serious scrapbooking and paper crafting, we took time for a photo shoot...even added some wonderful floral props to ourselves!!! Arn't these pics a total riot?!! Gotta love my girl Cathy, she is amazingly talented, a total riot, and super sweet!!! Love ya girlfriend, this is for you!
Here are some of our other friends who were croppin' with us, all very talented and fun girls to hang with!! Carla, Carol, Tracy (who wouldn't let us take her picture), and Traci!
so, there ya have us! We had a great time and I can't wait to do it again!! I got to spend this past weekend at another "sisters" crop...yep, Scrap In Style tv crop and I'll share my pics and layouts from that in another post!
Lastly, new month, new video (expect a change in a week or so though LOL)....and this one is for all my "Rockin' Like Dokken" sisters from our fabulous weekend!!!
You are never too old to ROCK AND ROLL MAN!!!!!!!!!
Until next time,
Blessings!

Here are some of our other friends who were croppin' with us, all very talented and fun girls to hang with!! Carla, Carol, Tracy (who wouldn't let us take her picture), and Traci!
so, there ya have us! We had a great time and I can't wait to do it again!! I got to spend this past weekend at another "sisters" crop...yep, Scrap In Style tv crop and I'll share my pics and layouts from that in another post!
Lastly, new month, new video (expect a change in a week or so though LOL)....and this one is for all my "Rockin' Like Dokken" sisters from our fabulous weekend!!!
You are never too old to ROCK AND ROLL MAN!!!!!!!!!
Until next time,
Blessings!
