  Its been a quiet weekend.  I spent Friday babying a sick headache.  Saturday working in the yard with Rob all day.  And Sunday at church, and just being lazy.

  In between times I did digi scrapping.  Here's three that I'm particularly proud of.

  

  I've been surfing on scrapbooking.com quite a lot.  And one woman in particular loves making scenes out of her pictures.  I thought they were adorable.  And jumped from her idea to make my own.

  

  I have done 99% of all the graphics in each of these.  The brick in the castle was someone elses original picture that I tiled.  And a couple of the shapes were preset shapes that I found from several different locales, but the colors/patterns etc are mine.  I drew the castle shape by myself, the rose trellis, roses and vines are mine. etc.  Its been so much fun and so empowering to be able to learn so much.

  The weather today is just kinda ICKY.  Not wet just cold and uninviting.  So we've been fairly house-bound while Rob pulls a double.  He's pulling another one tomorrow poor guy.  But the overtime is definitely needed!

  At the request of the baton coach I also made a baton thank you card.  The local Soroptomist club donated $250 to our club towards uniforms.  It was very needed at our tweens have grown and NONE of them fit in there current uniforms.  Hopefully their new ones will be here by July fourth and the parade. 

  All of the images I shared today are highly compressed in order to fit on xanga.  I wish you could see the originals, but I think you get the idea.
