Been playing in my scrap space today

And I did two LO's. One of them is a LO of one of our "twin" kitties, Chloe. When I took the photo I thought I was taking a picture of her brother, Sylvester. I even uploaded this photo into my siggy line at ScrapGoods and said it was Sylvester. Then I had the photo blown up for this LO. Low and behold there's that tell-tale thin white stripe from her bottom lip to the white on her chest-LOL. That's the only way I could tell the two kitties apart when we first got them!! Back to the LO. This is a Backporch Memories kit (gasp it's NOT SG) I added the sticker, the flowers,and chipboard letters from my stash!




This second LO is ahem....well, not my usual style that's for sure. I have not been able to wrap my brain around this new trend of Freestyle. And that presents a problem as far as I am concerned...a challenge that I HAD to take on. So here's my feeble attempt at Freestyle. Maybe it will grow on me....

THAT is why I do not look at scrap magazines...I hate trying to figure out a style just to have it change by the time I get it. I like to happily co-exist in my own little scrapping world.

On that note, the layouts are lovely! As always!! You rock girlie! You rock!

these look great! I can't quite get into the whole freestyle thing, I always think it's interesting to look at but doubt I could pull it off myself. :)
