Digital Scrapbook Pages

I have scapbooked off an on for years, and I am starting to create digital pages again and I wanted to share a couple of my latest. I created these for the May challenges over at The Lilly Pad.

I am planning on getting these printed and framed when I can. I like to create them and frame them for gifts as well as hang them in my home. 

I created this 8 x 10 page so that I can frame it and give it to both girls. I have one more challenge to complete for this month so a chance to win a spot on there Design Team. Wish me luck. 

Happy Friday

This has been an extremely crazy week. We spent the first part (mon-thu) camping. Then came home yesterday afternoon to be back for the girls 4H awards banquet. So I think I will share a glimpse of my week with you.

Driving to the North Georgia mountains.

What I read while we were gone.

Where we stayed at camping. This is out in the middle of the mountains, 2 1/2 miles from the paved road. I was so glad it had electricity and water.

We had to make the drive to Highlands, NC so that we could enjoy the ice cream.

 

We hiked down to this waterfall and was able to walk behind it and stay pretty dry.

Here is Anastasia trying to reach out and touch it, but it was too far away.

Camping wouldn't be complete without the wild animals.

Or playing in the creek. Even if the water was freezing still.

And finding interesting things on our hikes.

Then coming home to a great banquet where my girls were awarded for all their hard work with 4H this year.

Shae won one of the 2 top spots for 5th grade for the whole county.

And Anastasia won one of 3 top spots for 6th grade.

I hope you all have a happy Friday and a wonderful weekend as well.

Book Club Thursday With Link Party

This weeks book is not of the crafty genre but of the mystery. I have always loved to read but over the past few years it was more to learn something than just to read for the pleasure of reading. It has been few and far between that I have read any books just to read. So this book was a great one to pick up. I love that it is co-written by one my favorite authors Mindy Starns Clark and  Kim Alexis. Beauty to Die For: A Spa Mystery is a great read if you like a twist and a little romance thrown into it also.

 Here is the cover description:
Juliette Taylor walked away from her career as a supermodel twenty-five years ago. Now approaching fifty – an emotionally complex milestone -- she co-owns a beauty supply company that makes skincare products for salons and spas. Her niche is pampering Christian women who usually spend more time caring for others than for themselves under the slogan: Isn’t it time someone took care of YOU for a change?When Juliette arrives at the Palm Grotto Spa to host a spiritual retreat, she runs into an old modeling colleague, Raven, who had always been disliked in the industry for many reasons. She isn’t there for the retreat; in fact, her presence at the spa is somewhat mysterious.Not long after Raven makes a cryptic threat to Juliette, the unsympathetic back-then beauty is found dead, poisoned by something in the green clay of a chai soy wrap. The following morning, a banner for the retreat has been unceremoniously altered:It’s your turn to be nurtured, to be restored . . . to be murdered.Suspicion is directed at Juliette who has history with Raven and certainly knows how to use beauty products. But for murder?! Now she must find the real killer before the police really take care of her.
