I decided to take a break from CT work. My personal life got extremely crazy, as well as my CT commitments, so I decided to take some time for myself and focus on what I wanted. After much soul searching I decided to pursue my love of photography, and in October 2010 I opened my own business <a href="http://www.peaceloveclick.com/">Peace Love Click Photography</a>.</div><div><br /></div><div>The past month or so I have been missing Digi Scrapping very much, and decided to get my feet wet again with a digi dare. Well one little spark lit th</div><div>e fire, and I am back to scrapping again. It has always been my best therapy, and I'm very much enjoying my therapy sessions again. I do miss the desi</div><div>gners that I worked with and became so close with, but the two that I was the closest with have retired, and are moving on to new endeavors in their lives and I am very happy for them. I have made a decision to again be a part of a Creative Team, but I will only be on one, and have yet to find the designer I want to work with, but I am looking around, and have a few in mind that I would very much like to CT for.</div><div><br /></div><div>Also, I will be re-designing my blog...it is in desperate need of being updated. So stay tuned for some new things, but in the mean time here is the page I did for this weeks digi dare.</div><div><br /></div><div><div><br /></div></div><div><img src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhBSHEgf35NxzDqxsLfNBzJLAkoUQ0Eu7OPztmCF5EcSToyX95ORAFGV2BQw_4M_dOSWU2wTDgcouOWF45zzsBhgAAJKP67gX4LiiHdJxiF4pwWrOLRWc6DQ1RleVMaeXZIuCf1yQfkmO4/s400/photobooth+super+model.jpg" style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 400px;" border="0" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5627537398843312018" /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><div><br /></div><a target="_blank" title="ImageShack - Image And Video Hosting" href="http://img59.imageshack.us/i/vdaybannerfinal1.png/"><img src="http://img59.imageshack.us/img59/7590/vdaybannerfinal1.png" border="0" /></a>Reno Creationshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02388974129737862145noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9206738370039888059.post-62305642198739354202010-08-20T09:59:00.000-07:002010-08-20T10:08:39.188-07:00Randomness & Digi Dare InfoWell I haven't posted in over a month...I've been crazy busy. I went on vacation with my girls to Myrtle Beach to have a family reunion vaca with my Nana, Mom, & sister. We had an awesome time relaxing on the beach, and I have TONS of pictures to edit & scrap...PLUS 2 days after we got home my hubby finally came home from Alaska!!!!!!

Each dare stretches my creativity, and pushes me to go beyond my regular scrapping. This weeks dare was to do a page about something from your childhood that you wanted but never got and of course there are elements to the page that you have to do on your layout. Here is the page I did for dare # 185, and I have to say I really LOVE how it came out!

The very next day I flew all over the country (seriously...I went from Austin TX to Atlanta GA, then to Laguardia Airport NY, then Charlotte NC and finally Myrtle Beach SC.

Long story short my landlord called me on April 30th and told me the house was being foreclosed on and I had to be out by May 15th! (yes...I was paying my rent, but apparently she wasn't paying her mortgage with my rent money!)<br /><br />It all turned out to be okay, I found a beautiful 4 bed/3 bath house in the next town over with 1.3 acres for the kids to play on, and we got moved in on the 15th. For the past few weeks I've been packing & unpacking in the new place and just this week found my computer...YAY! After an extremely stressful month I'm really looking forward to having some scrap therapy which is desperately needed right now! Last night I did a page for my ct for My 4 Princesses Designs with an adorable kit called <a href="http://enchantedstudioscraps.com/xcart/product.php?productid=2953&cat=0&page=1">Here Comes The Sun</a> which can be found at Enchanted Studio Scraps.

I was a little nervous about participating, not thinking I could come up with anything that would even remotely compare with the amazing scrappers that participate in this challenge, but last night as I was laying in bed my idea came to me for my layout, and first thing this morning I started working on it. I am soooooo happy with how it came out!<br /><br />I used a kit that is no longer available called My Big Adventure. It was a collaboration kit done to raise money for Autism Speaks. Not only is it an awesome kit, but for a cause close to my heart.<br /><br /><a target="_blank" title="ImageShack - Image And Video Hosting" href="http://img59.imageshack.us/i/vdaybannerfinal1.png/"><img src="http://img59.imageshack.us/img59/7590/vdaybannerfinal1.png" border="0" /></a>Reno Creationshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02388974129737862145noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9206738370039888059.post-84168728413471226512010-04-19T20:11:00.001-07:002010-04-19T20:14:12.615-07:00Earth Day Blog Background & Header Freebie<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ_Hxe8YDrbWNqjuDI5UU4s852mpihh6ku014O_EMzYNrQ45qQssgC61MGaYPgAiFog2hwUdUrIB6wqj1WU9K7OWSavJLTdfL_O7qyF2CSXY64hokIEyNjHTuckg50d3IS7UubDZa8UE/s1600/Eco-Blog-Preview.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQJ_Hxe8YDrbWNqjuDI5UU4s852mpihh6ku014O_EMzYNrQ45qQssgC61MGaYPgAiFog2hwUdUrIB6wqj1WU9K7OWSavJLTdfL_O7qyF2CSXY64hokIEyNjHTuckg50d3IS7UubDZa8UE/s400/Eco-Blog-Preview.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5462052169199256018" border="0" /></a>Want to get this adorable blog background & header?

Well your right...she is doing a series of kits focused on all different colors. Well, I love pink, so when this one came up I decided to do a LO about me, not something I usually do, but heck why not! So the CT for Fishbowl Designs has decided that when everyone's favorite color comes up they are going to do a page about themselves. I can't wait to see what Anne (the designer for Fishbowl Designs) does when the Just Purples comes out! So thats it for now...I have alot more pages to do since I didn't get much done last week and I'm falling a little behind. <a target="_blank" title="ImageShack - Image And Video Hosting" href="http://img59.imageshack.us/i/vdaybannerfinal1.png/"><img src="http://img59.imageshack.us/img59/7590/vdaybannerfinal1.png" border="0" /></a>Reno Creationshttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02388974129737862145noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9206738370039888059.post-28680391853116155272010-04-17T09:16:00.001-07:002010-04-17T09:29:31.444-07:00LOTD during a migraine<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFJ6ZFAel_gd4Xn5Xm6Du3Uxemhh2AhNG8BvCHwIemw2AYlodf412S6mUCva1LXTRXz64GSh7BAuJFjy0BI4nkD3u3YERPJ3z8OTiHphc_BHfp9QQmXNrDxtzfUFK-aVwSfHeyqTwUQB8/s1600/ESS+LOTD.png"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 150px; height: 150px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhFJ6ZFAel_gd4Xn5Xm6Du3Uxemhh2AhNG8BvCHwIemw2AYlodf412S6mUCva1LXTRXz64GSh7BAuJFjy0BI4nkD3u3YERPJ3z8OTiHphc_BHfp9QQmXNrDxtzfUFK-aVwSfHeyqTwUQB8/s400/ESS+LOTD.png" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5461141103813753058" border="0" /></a>This has been a rough week for me. Whenever I get one of my wonderful migraines it just knocks me out for a while, and this week was no different. I get real lethargic & cranky before it happens, and then whammo it hits and I'm usless. Luckily this one didn't last for days, but it still takes it's toll on me.<br /><br />While I was away from the digi scrappin world I received the Layout of the Day at Enchanted Studio Scraps for my Spring has Sprung layout (the one in the post below this one)!

I really like the texture it gave this picture...it almost has a painting feel to it.<br /><br />FYI...the new layouts with the Daffodil Dreams Kit will be posted on Saturday.

I was in awe of how beautiful the snow there was...it just glittered in the lights! I was at the airport for 7 hours, so I walked around where I could and took pictures of the poor stuffed (and I mean taxidermy, not kids toys) animals that were displayed all over the airport, several different brown bears, a wolf, bald eagle, polar bears. I also read Water For Elephants (great book...I highly recommend it!) to stay awake because I was so afraid I would fall asleep and get my luggage stolen or miss my next flight.<br /><br />I got to Fairbanks and my hubby was there waiting for me. It was so great to see him and his smile just warmed my heart! He had to work, so he brought me back to the apartment so I could get some sleep, I'd been up for about 36 hours by then, but I was just so excited to be there that I couldn't sleep even though I was completely exhausted. We just relaxed that night and snuggled up together watching movies, I was way too tired to go anywhere or do anything and I got a little ticked off when he asked me to go get him a pillow, but little did I know he had hidden my anniversary present under it. I didn't even see it when I snatched the pillow off the bed and threw it at him, so he told me to go back and look on the bed where the pillow had been, and there was my necklace... a black & white diamond teardrop with the shared hearts. I LOVE this design, and what makes it even better is that part of the proceeds go to the Autism Speaks foundation!<br /><br />The next day was our 7 year anniversary, and we went to Chena Hot Springs, which was amazing. The natural spring runs about 105 degrees and is nestled in between some of the most beautiful mountains I had ever seen! That night we went to the Silver Gulch for appetizers, then to the Turtle Club for our anniversary dinner. Nothing like prime rib and Alaskan king crab legs to celebrate 7 years of not killing each other! (he says I just haven't found the poison yet LOL)<br /><br />The rest of the week was very laid back and relaxed, which is exactly what I needed. He would go to work and I would just chill out and watch movies or walk around a bit, and when he came home we would go out for dinner at some of his favorite spots up there and drive around and see the beautiful scenery. Geraldo's was unbelievable...the best Italian food I've had since I left NY! Another place I loved was this bar/restaurant in the middle of the mountains with nothing else around. I walked in and the owners dog was just laying by the front door. The bar stools were tree stumps with a cushion on top, and there were dollar bills all over the ceiling (not an inch of uncovered space) and on the walls with people's names & the date they were there written on them. There was a room in the back with an antique car in it, and moose heads and bear skins hanging on the walls, there was even a wood burning stove in the corner of one of the rooms. The bartender/waitress was hysterical and had us laughing the whole time we were there. She was the only one working because everyone else was setting up for the outhouse races they were having the next day...no shit...outhouse races! (pun intended) Of course we put our dollar bill up on the wall...had to leave our mark ;)<br /><br />One day he brought me to work with him so I could see what exactly it was that he does. It was interesting, and I got to drive a military hummer which was cool. Another day I took a cab to see the world Ice Sculpting contest...that was just beautiful! I didn't get to see any being made as the contest had ended the week before, but the sculptures were simply amazing! They even had an entire playground sculpted from ice for kids to play on, along with an ice maze, and ice slides! Afterward I went to Barnes & Noble and they had a huge fireplace in the middle of the store with big fluffy chairs all around it. I nearly fell asleep in the chair while reading there. He picked me up after work and we went to a sporting goods store there. We had been talking about home security, and even though our darling Bolt is intimidating at first, it only takes a second to realize he is a big goof ball and the only thing he would do to someone is lick them to death! So needless to say my second anniversary gift was a 12 gauge shotgun! (how romantic) I wanted the pretty pink handgun, but you have to live there 3 months before you can buy a handgun, so I got a shotgun and told him I was gonna bedazzle it! <br /><br />My last weekend there we went to Denali National Park. All I can say is O M G !!!!!!! The drive there was jaw droppingly beautiful! He definitely saved the best for last! I was in awe of how beautiful the mountains were...like nothing I've ever seen in my life! We could only go so far into the park because the roads were covered in snow, but we went into the Learning Center, and got there just before they were about to go on a snowshoe hike! Talk about lucking out, our timing was perfect! The hike was amazing, and the guide was great! I learned all about how the different animals survive the 40 below weather up there while walking through the most beautiful forest I'd ever seen.<br /><br />In short (ha ha...a little late for that) I got to see the snow fall (3 days), I saw dog sled races, ice sculptures, chena hot springs, and Mt. McKinley(at Denali). Almost all of the things I wanted to see and do I did! The only things that I didn't get to see were the Northern Lights (they weren't bright enough to see while I was there) and a moose. I guess I'll just have to go back! :D<br /><br />Oh, and so I don't forget...the Layout above was done with <a href="http://sunshinestudioscraps.com/shop/product.php?productid=3420&cat=0&page=1">Butterflies & Buttercups by Fishbowl Designs</a>.
