Mermaid Evolution

*sigh* I have a mermaid--even a couple of them--and I have no clue what to do with them.



I'm sure I'll figure it out. =)

The Greatest Gift

Everything by Vinnie Pearce @ Pixel Canvas. Background is a blend of papers from The Rose Garden, Woodlands Park - Boys, and the photo at a larger size. Heart on a ribbon is from Pieces of Me II, and the branch is from the recent NSD Chat Freebie. Heart is from Drama Queen, and button from Timeout. Fonts are Butterbrotpapier, VT Remington, and Soul Misson. Journaling reads:

"today, on mother's day,
i think of you
and how i always rediscover
discovery itself
the brightness of the mind
fired by imagination
where a few rocks
on the beach
become an island surrounded
by dangerous waters
and there's no way to get off
when it's time to go
you were late in my life
i never conceived of how a child
would launch me into the unknown
all those years i fought
to establish stability
and along you came to prove to me
that orderliness and rules
are not comfort for everyone
and that perhaps i should rethink
what i have been calling freedom
you, the laughter of my soul, are in fact
my greatest gift of all"

Dollar Day Deal: Luxuriant!

$1.00!! All Friday! So, happy weekend to you... =)

New In The Shop: Brief Elegance (Pixel Canvas)

I really like this one =) The papers are so much fun to play with!



And a couple of layouts:



Scraplift of nininano's This Moment for the Friday lift @ Pixel Canvas.


Everything with my Brief Elegance kit (Pixel Canvas).
Fonts: Pegsanna, VT Remington, and Reprobate. Journaling reads: "Without a record, these moments fade..." -- I'd never remember these beautiful scenes without these pages. I'm so grateful that I learned how to do this scrapbooking stuff--it means so much more to me this way than just with a photo!

And this one by Sara (moltac):

So What Am I Selling Already??

I'm kind of a ditz, I haven't even shown you what my stuff is at Pixel Canvas! (well, except for the EcoFabulous kit, which is SO much fun to play with!)

Last week two kits came out, Baby Cowslip,



and Always Time.



And this Thursday/Friday (8am New Zealand time, wherever you are) is another kit that I'm really in love with, called Brief Elegance. =)

And now for a bunch of layouts:

Always Time:



Everything from the Always Time kit.

Precious Moments:



Just a quiet sunset play... For a scraplift of Zwyck's beautiful "For Sara" layout.

Yellow flower and sunburst is from Contemplation (ViVa Artistry). Word art is from Preserve It (Vinnie Pearce, Fei-Fei's Stuff, and Catherine Designs charity Collab), with an extra word overlay (Time and Time Again font). Little jeweled flower from Baby Cowslip (Heather T.).

The Beat Of The World



Here's Allen with his new Carhart jacket, digging a hole in the sand with his foot--but it sure looks like he's dancing, doesn't it?

Fonts: Destruction and Pegsanna HMK. Journaling reads: "Be still, and listen to the beat of the world, where play is a dance of joy."

And finally, mostly for fun, Oh?:

We're UP Again!

Oh man, I didn't realize how much I would miss Pixel Canvas, but I did, especially over interNational Scrapping Day! But it's back, and Vinnie has released the FABULOUS collaboration kit we all participated in: EcoFabulous! Check it out:



It is sooooo full of surprising and fun elements, and really gorgeous and luscious papers. YUM! Plus, all the proceeds will go towards helping Vinnie with the new server for the site, which costs twice as much... =/

Wheeeeeeeeeeeee!

Come Chat!

Yep, the Pixel Canvas site was down ALL DAY--depressing. But, there was a chat scheduled, and by golly, I'll be there! Just click here: DST Chat Room, and come on it! It's supposed to start at 9pm PST, 4PM (May 2nd) NZ...

Edit: Ok, that was the best chat EVER. My stomach still hurts from so much laughing! I'm sorry to report that the Pixel Canvas site will be down till Monday, though. *grumble, grumble*
