Tinkerbell

This is a 2 page spread about my kitty Tinkerbell.

Journaling reads:

"Tink has been with me since November 2004.
The day Andrea and I went to the
shelter, I was looking for a kitten.
Little did I know that by
the end of
the day I would have fallen in Love
with a purrdy kitty of unknown age and
name.
They guesstimated your age between 3 and 4 years.
I didn’t care. All
night I worried
and was afraid that the couple after us
had taken you with
them.
The next day I brought you home.
No Regrets.
Ever."

You will always Shine

I made this for a contest on GDS, kit provided.


I took this picture of my friend Anne during a trip we took around the first of May to see my parents in Germany. (All the little pictures in the star border are from different occasion in the last year)
Wherever Anne goes, she brightens everyone's day.

Journaling reads:

"May 1 2008

and finally we
did visit my parents back home.
I had a great time with you in
Germany!

Year!

time outside watching the Snow fall...

I tried to keep it simple and dreamy.

Heartbreakers

My god child and his big bro, my little heartbreakers!
This was inspired by an add I saw in Glamour
http://i27.tinypic.com/21c85zl.jpg
by Bride.Com.
I liked it for it's simplicity and clear lines.
Since I am normally someone that has to fill every inch of each page, it was a challenge
And I just couldn't stick with it either

Convertible Fun!

This LO was made for Round 3 in the NKOTB 12 constest on DSP.


I used the rule of three and tried to place the pictures on cross points on the grid.
I used Time Trials by pinky7 on DSP as a starting point.

Ken and I were finally able to take the convertible out for a spin with the top down.
After all the weeks the car was in the shop, it was a real treat!!!

Spring is here

This was made for a contest on godigitalscrapbooking.com, kit provided.

I had to go out in the sun and take a picture that fit the colors though. ;)
I extracted the word art from the can cap and recolored it.

And here you have it, me outside in the yard on a sunny Belgian day.

Journaling:Sunny Spring Days don't come around too often in Belgium,so I tend to enjoy them to thefullest! Outside, in the Sun, inthe Yard. This sunny Days just needs a BBQ to be perfect!!!

Anne's Birthday

Homework 1 for DSU 221.

This LO pictures my best friend Anne on her birthday on May 5.
I merged two pictures together, used a layer to get the border with loads of filters and some brushing.
I also used layers to add texture/pattern to the text and added a stroke on the outside.
I like it ;) Maybe I'll mirror the page and add a collage of all the other pictures we took and some journaling to it!

LOTRO - Rivendell

This was prompted by the Bootcamp Challenge and Erica's new Oh! My Word Challenge at DSP.
Grungy and my favorite Videogame.
Lord of the Rings Online!

My favorite Place in Game is Rivendell, absolutely beautiful!
I used in game screenshots of Rivendell at 3 different times of day/night and a screenshot from the in game map.

Background is the Cardboard Paper from Shiny Glam, which I also used as an overlay (all bright places deleted) with drop shadow and embossment to grunge it up. The frame is also from Shiny Glam and I just flipped it.
I also extended the border of the Rivendell map to frame the whole LO and extracted the "Rivendell" part of it to enhance it's contrast and make it pop.

Somehow, this screams for a second page with journaling on how I came to Rivendell the first time in game.... and the touristy shots I took of my character with Aragorn, Gandalf, Elrond, Boromir and Glorfindel

Text:

"... we've been far and seen a deal, and yet I don't think we've found a better place than this. There's something of everything here, if you understand me: the Shire and the Golden Wood and Gondor and kings' houses and inns and meadows and mountains all mixed."
Sam Gamgee, The Return of the King: "Many Meetings," p. 265
