I am the Artist of My Life.

I think Google has made it easier for us technically challenged bloggers to add pictures and content to our blogs. Yeah! I might be more inclined to add to this blog now that adding photos doesn't add new grey hairs to my head. It was easy today to add photos and I think I managed to do it without changing the colours. :-)

September's layout continues on with this years theme of scrapbooking ourselves. Seems like many of us scrapbook our kids, pets, family and friends and frequently exclude pages about the one behind the camera and the one creating the scrapbooks.
 This layout is about the artist - you. Be prepared to do a bit of journaling on this one. Of course, you could skip that part and add more pics but I do challenge you to try some journaling. Of course you can always change the title and make this layout about anything else you want. Deviation is good too.
I have used papers from Basic Grey's Max and Whiskers collection as well as paper from their Basics collection. This is the second time this year I have created a layout from the Max and Whiskers collection that was not pet related. I love the colours and these papers are so versatile.
 There is a fair amount of stamping on this layout, some die cutting and some embossing using Tim Holtz Alterations Texture Fades. There is also a teeny tiny bit of sewing on this layout but not enough to moan and groan about. Just enough.
Two classes coming up this week at Scrapalicious. First class is this Wednesday September 15th, at 11:30AM. Second class is this Saturday September 18th at 1PM. Be prepared for this class to run a little bit over time, as always. Don't worry about the kids, they have homework to do and so you have lots of time to come out and play.
