This is my very first attempt at digital scrapbooking. It's been something I've wanted to try for almost a year and just last month I bought the program I wanted to try. I bought some digi papers and got very frustrated trying to load therm. Contacted my consultant who said that I could only upload digi papers from that company. Swore alot, got quite mad, and then decided to get creative. Voila! I figured out a way to use paper that wasn't from that company. HAHA! (waving my fist at the company and cheering for myself!)
Actually, I totally understand that a company would want you to use their own products. I get that. Really I do. But...I found other digi papers and embellishments that made my heart go pitter patter and I so desperately wanted to try them out. Where there's a will there's a way, right?
Keep in mind that this is my first attempt. It's quite simple, yet I like it. I used a picture of my boys taken at my youngest grade 12 graduation. (Thanks to all those of you who exclaimed, "Why, Janet, You're way too young to have a child graduating from high school!" Blessings to all of you! lol)
Most importantly, I used a digi stamp from Prairie Fairy Designs. Roberta is having a DT call and I'm entering. She gave a digi freebie to use, and I've added it in the corner of my page. You can check out the details of the DT call by visiting it here. Prairie Fairy Designs is one of my favorite companies. If you scroll back through my posts, you'll see that I often use an image from this company. If you haven't seen any, be sure to pop over to the store or blog to check it all out. The images are to die for.
Thanks for visiting and keep warm. It's supposed to be -41C here tomorrow morning! Brrrrrr. It will definitely be a cold drive to work.
