Chicken Scratch Scraps

I am learning to share

Digitally speaking of course (but don't ask for some of my Cadbury Popping Mini Eggs: I am not ready to part with any of those)!
I am trying out my first file share in the form of a template. I was puttering about with filters and my dd's pretty-princess pics when I came up with this layout:

I must admit the Eva Kipler's kit, At First Sight, really made the photos shine (her stuff rocks), and I loved the pinched and pulled bits of paper. If you like the look, feel free to download the template. ) Any feedback wrt improving the template or it's delivery is appreciated too.)

I've been a busy missy!

Crazy nuts here. How 'bout you? Did you squeeze in too many activities for the kids lately too? Sure makes the winter fly by though.
So I finally got back to scrapping after reclaiming some mojo and carving out a little time away from the kids (ie hiding out in my basement while distracting them with cartoons and snack food). Though I have picked up a cold from working down in this dank cavern, my scrap muscles are starting to loosen up again and I am having fun. Here are some of my latest:
Had too much fun turning the background photo into a painting on this one:

This photo screamed out for the tree:
I have been meaning to get his birthday shots from last year finished:
And lastly, I really had fun with this:

Okay, that's it for a bit. I am working on a template of a new layout to share with everyone. But, it will have to wait since my dh is taking me on a surprise birthday trip to Vegas on Sunday! Hope my mojo will hang in there; at least I'll have great photos to scrap with!!
Cheers!
