Bee Mine

Tami Savoie has done it again with soft colors, a little glitter and some fun friends make up my version of a Valentine's kit! Bee Mine is available at Digiscrapaganza. Love the name ... Bee Mine.




This is a 2nd cousins of Charlie's at her wedding and her grandfather.


And here the bridesmaids are making over Charlie. But Charlie was in love with the bride that day.

Best Interest

I found, yet, another look to Horsedreamn Designs' great kit, Macho.
The quote says ... When it's in your best interest, practice obedience.
It fits Jackson just perfect.

You will find the tag template in a challenge at Digital Scrap Garden by NathFunStuff. It is called Deco Mania with Nathalie. Jump over and do the challenge with her. It is fun!

The weekend was a fun one. First it was Charlie's basketball game and then he spent the night with us so his Mom and Dad could go see Rodney Carrington. Now THEY had a blast. And so did we. LOL

Sunday, I went in to the Library with Leslie as she had to put out a display for a group that was meeting in Alamo Hall. The display was some documents that her library archives for this group. After we put the documents on display, we went back in her office, played on the computer (well she worked, I played), when we weren't talking. Then when the meeting was over, we put the stuff up and came on back home. Leslie and I always enjoy our time together.

Basketball

If you have never seen 6 year olds play an organized game of basketball, you don't know what you are missing. This was Charlie's second game. I missed the first one. They are so fun to watch. They are quickly learning that it is "good" to pass the ball to someone else on their team and not hog the ball even if they are not open to make a shot. The funny part is that they haven't completely figured out that they should not block their own teammate. At this level, the refs don't hardly call anything. As long as they don't just tuck the ball under their arm and run with it and are trying to dribble/or just bounce the ball a little there is no traveling called. The game is fast and they do not stop the clock for anything. I'm smiling just thinking about it. Sad to say, the lighting in the buidling was not good enough to get good pictures with my camera. So, I have a couple of bad pictures to share. LOL


Charlie's team won a big 14 - 4.

I was tickled with myself when I found a new way to make something for my layouts. The large ball on the background was created from a square piece of paper in Tami's Nana's Boy. It is available at Digiscrapaganza. I use PSP2X. I selected the whole paper, then applied "Effects / Geormetric effects / Circle". I laugh at myself when I discover something like this and wonder why I never did that before.


Here is the preview of this wonderful kit that Tami made. I can't believe I had not put this on my blog, yet. Shame on me! Tami made this kit for me and Charlie and surprised me with the name which I happen to just LOVE! Nana's Boy! It is the perfect kit for scrapping a young active boy and I love ya' Tami for doing this kit!

As I said before, this is available at Digiscrapaganza.
