Eyes That Sparkle, Soul That Shines


I had to do a layout of Jessi's gorgeous blue eyes because they are turning hazel-ish green. I sure will miss them. So, this is her...and her beautiful eyes....that I will miss.....dearly. And, as the journaling states, her eyes are also the reason why she is never in trouble for very long. I just love them.


I messed with this darn layout for almost two days. It's time to walk away......

Another layout by Lizzy!


And this one is PAPER!!!!! Lizzy is just an amazing scrapper- with digi or paper, she never ceases to amaze me!! I am so jealous! I used to scrap with paper, until I found the dark side, and now I can't work with my hands to save my life. I really wish I could, though. Anyway, thanks again, SR, this is a beauty!!!!!

Bridge To Suburbia



This is as good as it gets this week. I live deep in the suburbs (as you can tell by the amateur graffiti!), and I just didn't have the time to travel to where the really cool bridges are here in Colorado. If I had more time, I would have made a visit to The Royal Gorge. Now, THAT is a 'bridge'. I do love bridges, and I can't wait to see what everyone else comes up with.

A Gift!


I just received this beautiful page from Lizzy, and I LOVE it!!!!!! Thank you, SR!!!!! I am still in awe of your work!!!!!! As to the picture...I had it coming. I look like I am falling asleep and Jessi looks strange, but after stealing yours...FINE!


Again, thanks and you are very welcome....anytime!!!!!

Cadillac Ranch 2007


Motivated by a layout done by Lizzy, which will be PUBLISHED in Digital Scrapbooking Magazine in February (?), I attempted to create a modern, artsy fartsy type layout of my little family at The Cadillac Ranch last Summer. Of course, it's nothing like hers, but it's unlike any of my others. All in all, I am satisfied.


Thanks for the motivation, SR.

My Morning

This is my typical Saturday morning, not a hectic weekday morning. I would have liked to photograph the 'typical' morning, but the with a cold and stomach bug on top of Teacher Inservice on Friday, I haven't had a 'typical' morning....until this morning, but my camera battery was D-E-A-D, dead. Anyway, here's a Saturday morning at the Mosbarger's.

I open my bedroom blinds. Hmm, Fall photo opp? YES!
















Indeed, the leaves are changing. I hope no one sees me in the trees!
















Beautiful light and colors!!! Uh-oh. I hear a stumpy.
















Crap. I have been spotted. Time to make breakfast.
















But wait! I see a 'morning reflection' in my steamer!!! PERFECT!
















Family is fed. Time for make-up and hair. Hey, it takes a lot to look 'natural'!
















Helen, I guess I will enter either picture no. 2 (the leaves) or no. 4 (the skillet and time). If the leaves aren't really morning-ish, then go for the skillet and time one. I don't know..YOU pick!! LOL!! I love having you do all of my work for me....layouts, word art, challenge choices, etc.
MWA!!!

Animals






Because I am such a sucker for animals, this week's challenge was kind of easy...thanks Wendy!!!


Here are a some pictures from the Denver Zoo and, of course, how could I forget my own 'zoo' at home? So, once again, here are a couple of Diesel. Yes, more.


Honestly, I do have two beautiful daughters...really! Maybe they will be included in next week's challenge.
