I am just realizing i don't have brian, aka the scrubster, on my blog a lot and that isn't right! i do scrap him a lot, i do, really! he actually likes it, i can tell ;) supportive scrubsters are the best. he let's me do my thing with this hobby, work and life and i love that about him. we talked about me going back to school, again, at the end of the year. i mean, i did it when owen was 18 mos. so why not when henry is...so we'll see. i have a lot to do to get ready for that. recommendations, getting touch with my old profs, applications, not sure if i have to take my GRE's again or not...well, it doesn't sound that great now that i think about it....lol!
here is a Maya Road album that i made with the Serendipity Scrapbooks altered kit this month. it was jam packed with Teresa Collins goodies and LYB. it's a pretty simple album but it just felt "done" to me.
don't forget the crop at Serendipity this weekend! lots of girls from prevous DT's will be there and Maya Road gave us some extra goodies to give away. THANK YOU! ;)
I used Tim Holtz Red Distressed Embossing powder {yeah!} and i layerd it over off white crackle paint. I cover my albums with paint first before I do anything else. I that way when I sand them and then stuff, you can see the paint. Plus, owen loves to help me do it :)

Ellen, I love how you did your album. I am so glad that you used the distress technique. I just got some powder and wasn't sure how it would look! Your example is super! See you at the crop!
Simply FABULOUS! I love how you added color accents to your transparencies! Fab Project!
This is so great, Ellen!! I love the way you did the cover! Super inspiring. :)
Love the album! I'm particularly fond of the products you used and it turn out great! Good luck with your school "quest". Over the past 2 years I have gone back and forth with my decision to go back. I finally decided one degree was enough for now...but I'm lazy that way. LOL!
Oh, this is so cool, Ellen! I've not seen this fun winged album before. You really did a beautiful job on this.
