January/February Blog

OK, I know, once again I have fallen behind which really was not my intention. I didn't make any New Year's resolutions, but had set goals for myself, none of which I've accomplished. So I am trying once again. I have been back in the card making/scrapbooking/picture taking mood again. I've made lots of cards, but haven't scanned them so I won't post them tonight, but do have 3 digital scrapbooking ones I would like to share. I'm going to have to keep on the ball because come June, I will have another little boy to scrapbook/photo. Really looking forward to that event. Anyway, here are some layouts I've done today plus the recipe card I did for the February SSSD 4 x 6 recipe card swap. I just received the January swap and they were great and I can't wait to try out the recipe.

With all the talk about the Copic markers, I naturally had to go out and buy some. Not that I really need another marker, but I sure don't want to miss out on anything either. I bought 4. I do like them for the fact that you can get colors close enough to making shading nice, plus I didn't notice the streaking you get with the other kind. I will probably pick up more when they are on sale or if I can find an on-line store that sells them cheap.

A couple things I am going to try and do is do the Photo A Day challenge. I have a few days to catch up on. If I can't do the every day photo, I am going to at least go for the Photo a Week challenge. The other thing I want to do is a scripture challenge. There is one on the Faith Sisters website that I will be following. As I do them, I will post them here also.

I hope you have enjoyed my scrapbook pages/recipe. Thanks for looking.
