I have to say making a layout takes me forever. Don't ask me why. I just find them so intimidating!! LOL! Here's my attempt at my third LO designed using the Fly Me To The Moon kit from Spinky Dink Scraps.

Showcase Siggy
Oh what a relief that today is a nice sunny day for a change! It inspired me to work on a new siggy. So, here it is! (Not too many pics of Pranava to choose from lately so the snow digs will have to do, LOL)
I used a kit titled Valentine designed by Debbie. Isn't it just sweet?!

Not Feeling too Creative Lately
This northern Midwest weather really has taken a toll on me the last few weeks. It has been so hard to feel creative or inspired. However, yesterday and today were actually pleasant days and voila! I created a new siggy using the Fly Me to the Moon kit at Spinky Dink Scraps.

Showcase Siggy
My friend, Debbie, from a mutual parenting forum put together a really cute kit called All Boy. I just loved the elements and had to make an animated siggy! (Unfortunately, it gets a little cut off on the right side.) I also used a modified siggy template from Spinky Dink Scraps.
Grab Debbie's All Boy Freebie kit here. Make sure to enter the specified code.

Showcase Layouts
I've finally ventured over into the layout territory. The shadows in this photo just made me think about eclipses (who knows why...). So naturally I have titled this piece "spring eclipse". Elements from Dreaming of Spring kit by Spinky Dink Scraps and Simply Scraps.

I'm on a Creative Team!
I'm so happy to annouce that I am on the Creative Team for Spinky Dink Scraps. Lindsay has such wonderfully crafted kits that when she was searching for people I immediately told her I was interested. Thanks for the opportunity, Lindsay! ;-)
By the way, you should grab her new kit, Fly Me To The Moon, which she is offering for a special price of $1.00 for a limited time! So cute!

Let's Get This Show on the Road!
Wow, what fun this has been trying to set up a blog for the first time! I've been wanting to showcase some of my photo projects for some time now. Thanks to Lindsay at Spinky Dink Scraps for helping me get started!
Most of these photo projects are siggies which I love designing. There will be a few layouts here and there and at some point I'll be putting up some of my own homemade scrapping elements. For now let's get this show on the road!

Showcase Siggies - Part 2
This is one of my absolute favorites. Not only was it fun designing this but the photos of my little boy, Pranava, are just too darn cute! It was designed using the Winter Wonderland kit from Spinky Dink Scraps.
Continuing with the winter/ice theme is another designed with the Spinky Dink Winter Wonderland kit.
Who can resist these expressions? My little guy is such a ham for the camera when he wants to be. Other times he just looks at me like I'm goofy.
This boy has so many expressions that it is hard to capture them all in photos. I used the Keston Mini Kit again from Spinky Dink Scraps. Oh, and I also used a siggy template from there as well!
Serious botanical study taking place!

Showcase Siggies - Part 1
This past summer I had fun with many of the summer themed kits and especially had fun designing this siggy. My initial idea was of a beach boardwalk. See if you can feel that from this siggy. Summer Fun kit by JulieItIs.
Well I certainly can't forget to highlight Pranava's birthday siggy using elements from the Playroom2 kit from MirkaK.
What a handsome little guy! All Good Things kit from Spinky Dink Scraps.
This was one of my first siggies put together during tornado season. Boy Zone kit by Aprilmouse blogspot.
