Easter Colors

I know, I know...I haven't been blogging lately.  I have been busy, but I haven't been stamping.  

Friday, I spent most of the day out of the house, because we had our shingles and sheeting replace on our roof.  Last summer, Omaha had a big storm and we are finally getting our roof fixed.  There was so much hammering that Tanner and I took one of his friends to the mall to eat and play.  I took a book I have been reading (one of Tate's) and just watched them play after lunch.

Ealier this week, I watched my Twilight movie.  Oh, I love that book series and I can't wait for the next movie.  I think if you read the books you get more out of the movie, because you know details they don't show you.

Finally, I am trying to take my online classes I purchased at JessicaSprague.com.  I am still on Now We're Rockin' with Photoshop and my Digi Deep classes are currently available.  In addition, I signed up to take her photo editing class.  As much as I take pictures, I want to ensure they are the best before I print them.  I already see my pictures could be better, since I started digi scrapping.

This layout is festive for the next holiday...EASTER!  These are pictures from 2004.  See I am behind in scrapping too.  I don't ever expect to get caught up.  What fun would that be?  LOL!  In these pics I am pregnant with Tanner and look at my hair.  It is long for me!

I learned a lot in lesson four of my Rockin' class:

• Create a two-page layout using a single Photoshop document
• Color-correct and add "pop" to photos
• Mask patterned papers with a scalloped template
• Mask a photo with a handmade mask
• Crop accent photos without cropping
• Add grungy effects to photo edges
• Create a quick title from an alphabet using shortcuts
• Cut and save your layout as two files for printing

Have a great weekend!

Happy Stamping and Scrapping!
