We had a big scare last week with our Yellow Lab, Biscuit. He had a very serious case of pancreatitis, and at first the vet was not sure if he was going to make it. Fortunately, after three days in the hospital, he was able to come home and is recovering nicely. During this time, I realized that I had never gotten around to making a scrapbook for him. I made one for our golden retriever Ginger several years before she died, and I was so happy that I did. It would have been much too hard to make afterwards. I used this week’s ColourQ colors and the MDS Monday sketch to create the cover of my B is for Biscuit scrapbook page.

I had to leave a wide area around the outside of the page because of the “bleed area.” It is important to be aware of this when you are having items printed by Stampin’ Up. I made sure not to have anything important within this area. The finished book will be 8″ x 8″.

I’m not sure that I love the font I used on the cover. I may end up changing it. Another beautiful thing about digital scrapbooking is that it is super easy to make those kinds of changes! Please come back to tomorrow to see the newest downloads from Stampin’ Up!

It’s Tuesday, so you know that Arielle has a great new color combo for you over at ColourQ! Aren’t they bright and fun? I combined them with the sketch from MDS Monday #13 (but I didn’t make a monochromatic layout, since I was using these colors).

These colors were just perfect for the pictures we took at Eve’s birthday dinner at Benihana’s. She loves going there — the food is great and the whole experience is so much fun!

I hope that you will find time to play along with ColourQ this week. And come back tomorrow to see the new digital downloads from Stampin’ Up!

What a lovely set of spring colors from Arielle over at ColourQ today! Aren’t they fabulous?

Fourth graders in California are required by state law to study the missions. We spent a beautiful day with Eve and a friend of hers touring the Mission in Santa Barbara earlier this month. This is also the mission where the real Karana, from Island of the Blue Dolphins, was taken to after she left the island. In the bottom right-hand picture, the girls are pointing to a plaque marking her grave. They read this book at the beginning of the school year.

Pretty in Pink is one of the colors that is retiring in just one more month. It will live forever in My Digital Studio, but if there is anything else you want in Pretty in Pink, do not delay! Come back tomorrow to see this week’s digital downloads from Stampin’ Up.

What do you get when you combine four great colors from ColourQ and a fun layout from MDS Monday? A fun and fresh scrapbook page, of course!

These bright colors and the big circle made it the perfect layout to show off the yummy cookie cake that Eve requested for her birthday this year.

To make the shadows on the title, I just copied and pasted the words a second time, then changed the colors. I offset them slightly so the title stands out more.

Some great colors from Arielle over at ColourQ today. They make me really miss Creamy Caramel! Good news, though, we have a lovely light gray color coming inJune called Smoky Slate. I’m looking forward to it! And Blushing Bride is coming back, too.

As we burned Eve’s birthday candle down on her 10th birthday, I thought it would be really fun to do a retrospective Scrapbook page with the pictures that I had taken of her and the candle over the years. The only one I couldn’t find was 2011. Maybe I didn’t take one that year? I don’t know. I also don’t have one for her first birthday. We did have the candle then, but she was too little to put next to the flame. I included a super cute picture from her first birthday anyway.

I love watching her change over the years. I’m so glad I started taking these pictures! Now on to the next 10 years. Oy!

Such gorgeous spring colors from ColourQ this week! They are just right for combining with a great double-page spread from MDS Monday!

I took some fun pictures during First Seder last week, and I was able to include most of them on this spread. The Soft Suede Patterns stripes made very Matza-like background and set off the pictures nicely. (You can click on the photo to see it larger.)

One of the great upgrades in MDS2 is the ability to see and work on double page spreads in the same window. If you have not already upgraded your original MDS, you can do so now for FREE!

Another great set of Spring colors from Arielle over at ColourQ this week! I combined them with the current scrap map challenge over at MyDigitalStudio.net.

I needed three pictures that would go together for this one, and I found some great pictures that we took last summer when we walked along the Freedom Trail in Boston. They are from the three Paul Revere related spots — his house, the statue of him on the horse, and the old North Church.

Although I used greens and purples, I think the diagonal tiling is reminiscent of the bricks that mark the Freedom Trail.

Tuesday means another great set of colors from Arielle over at ColourQ! These great blues are no longer in the current Stampin’ Up line up, but they are still available in My Digital Studio.

I was walking behind my daughter and her friend when they got out of the car the other morning, and I was struck but what a great photo it was, with their matching backpacks, outfits, and instruments. Of course I needed the shot of them looking over their shoulders, too.

If you have been holding out on purchasing My Digital Studio, you will be pleased to know that Stampin’ Up has reduced the price to $19.95. You can purchase this as either a download or on disc. Please let me know if you have any questions.
