Long time, no post

So I've been horrible about updating this!! No posts since September? WOW, so much has changed since then.

I've now been digiscrapping for a whole year!!

My favorite website would have to be Scrap Girls. I spend all my time on their message board. These ladies (and guys and kids) are incredible! I've met so many wonderful people on that site, learned so much, and spent wayy too much money! My scrapbooking skills are slowly improving...or at least I think they are.

Here are a few of my recent LOs (clicking on the title takes you to my Scrap Girls gallery so you can see the LO credits and supplies used):

Mother & Me:



Love Stinks:



I also recently took a class over at Scrap Girls called "Conquering Your Fear of Patterned Paper." It was a 2-week online class, and while I can't say I'm over my fear of pp, I now know a few tricks about using them. Right now I'm working on my week 2 homework, but here's the one I made for week 1's homework:

Adorable You:


Ooh..and guess what I'm super-excited about?!?! In October, I'm going to the Scrap Girls Digital Scraplink Convention in Salt Lake City! A weekend of classes, chocolate, fun, scrapbooking, taking pictures, and meeting new people! How cool is that!! I can't wait! 212 days to go....

Outside of scrapbooking, I keep very busy with work and sleep. Not much energy these days. Noelle keeps me very entertained, and I love her more than I did when I adopted her. She's starting to get more clingy and follows me around in the mornings as I get ready for work, and meows loudly outside my door when I don't wake up early enough. Here is my little princess:

Good enough for now. I'll post more later.
