Digi Stuff
We got rolling last week on our first projects for the Digital Creative Team at Two Peas. I thought I'd share my layouts, as well as catch up on my latest for The Digi Dares. Here are my first Two Peas layouts featuring papers and alpha by Betsey Tuma.  

Peas - I'll Take Two, Please!
Good news!  I'm thrilled to announce that I've been selected as one of the new digital creative team members at Two Peas in a Bucket!  I found out earlier this week and haven't been able to say anything. Now that the cat is out of the bag (or should I say the peas are out of the pod?!), I can share with everybody! I have not been doing much scrapbooking this fall, just because I've been so swamped with a lot of things, but with this and my gig at The Digi Dares, I should be getting back in the scrapping groove ASAP! Hopefully the upcoming

I"m the one who needs to do the dusting and damn it, I'm going to do it! I could go on all day about messed up knees, volleyball season, swine flu, and assorted other crap, but I know that everybody who might still be out there reading this is juggling the very same things.  And if you are, and you're still here reading, I thank you for that!  I know I'm not the only member of The Order of the Spinning Plates on Sticks. It

Ties and Unties
Recently, an online friend of mine experienced a terrible loss. She and her husband lost their precious little eight week old baby, Ian, to an aggressive brain tumor.  I have never met Tricia in person.
