Branching out

I have seen so many nice pages with digiscrapping that I decided to try it again. (I tried to do a page when it first became popular, but the program I used messed with my computer system.) This time I downloaded the trial of Photoshop Elements. Here is my first completed page. I am pretty proud of it! Kits: Kendall by Leah Riordan, and Splendid by Shabby Princess
Template (altered a little): by RQH (Ruby)

Tagged and an old favorite

I got tagged by my friend Sam today. (Check out her blog, it is in my list of blog links on the side). Since I haven't made anything new lately I will also reshare an old favorite card of mine.

A. Available or single: Interesting question. I guess I am both single and available ;)
B - Best friend: I have to go with Sarah. She lives far away now but she will always be my best friend!
C - Cake or pie: Cake all the way!
D - Drink of choice: Strawberry lemonade--the kind with chunks of strawberry in it.
E - Essential item you use everyday: I have to say my laptop. I was lost when it was broken!
F - Favorite color: blue
G - Gummy bears or worms: bears.
H - Hometown: What counts as a hometown where you grew up or where you call home now?
I - Indulgence: Anything chocolate.
J - January or February: February because January is dark and dreary and cold and February is closer to spring.
K - Kids & names: NA
L - Life is incomplete without? I have to agree with Sam on this one and say love. M - Marriage date: Sometime in the next couple of years hopefully ;)
N - Number of siblings: 3
O - Oranges or apples: Apples
P - Phobias or fears: I have to think about that one. I really don’t like spiders, but I wouldn’t say I have a phobia.
Q - Fave quote: “It is better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak and remove all doubt.” And also “Friends know the song in your heart and can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words.”
R - Reason to smile: To make someone’s day.
S - Season: Summer
T - Tag 3 or 4 people: Alora, Jess, and yikes I don’t have any other friends with blogs that Sam didn’t already tag.
U - Unknown fact about me:
V- Vegetable you don't like: Peas.
W - Worst habit: Talking before I think through what I am going to say. Can you say open mouth insert foot?!?!?!
X – X-rays: I have had my foot/ankle a couple of times and my wrist once. Oh yeah plus all the teeth x-rays I had when I had braces!
Y - Your fave food: I would have to say I love spaghetti, but I don’t love everyone’s spaghetti, I am kinda picky about how it is made.
Z - Zodiac sign: Don’t know and I don’t care.

Technology GRRRRRRRR

You never realize how spoiled you are with technology until it goes out!
First my printer stopped printing. Of course that happened soon after I bought new ink for it. So I can't print anything out. Then my tv stopped working. It just decided one day that it didn't want to turn on ever again. Then my computer crashed and I had to pay to save files off of it that I needed and couldn't live without. I wiped my computer and loaded everything back on and I thought my troubles were over. Oh no they weren't. My computer worked, but the power cord broke--like cracked in half. Did you know they charge $80 for a power cord for a laptop?!?!?! What a ripoff! I finally had the money to buy a new power cord, but I have a feeling that my computer is just going to give out soon. This HP laptop has been more trouble than it was worth.

So through all of this I haven't been able to update my blog. I hope to put some new creations up soon.

I hope everyone has a blessed Christmas!
