fall colors...

deep and rich

crisp and clean

ruffled and tattered

layers and lines

bits and pieces

patterns and solids

fall is:  warm rich colors that Pop!

dog..

i love to think

beyond the paper

what can it do

not what it is

i love to bring it to life

allow it to create it's own

feel..it's own life

sometimes when you are stuck

let the paper decide

let the patterns and colors

blend and make its own beautiful

I created this fun layout with a bit of Little Yellow Bicycle.  I loved the colors and even more I loved the textures.  The weight of this paper allows you to create in many ways.  This little layout "pops" off the page and makes you want to feel the layout.  By building the layers and placing a few pop dots in the perfect spots, it now brings it to life.

Thanks for checking it out

be creative everyday!

life is.....

life is in the details.

life is in the perfect color combinations.

life is in the blends.

life is in the layers.

life is in the rough edges.

life is in the bent pages.

life is in worn moments.

life in the the loose threads.

life is in the tiny bits.

life is in the imperfections.

life is in the luv.

isn't it just beautiful?

paper or photo....

what came first the photo or the paper.....

it is the paper.  It seems these days it is usually the paper. Often times I'll be ready for the photo and find it hard to put one down.  Only because I love and adore the layout just the way it is.  Then the lovely photo will cover up the goods..

Then the times will come that no matter how much I love a photo.  There isn't the "right" paper for it.  Some days a photo will wait a long time before it gets the paper it deserves...

this is a perfect example.  This photo has been just waiting.

now it has a home and I LOVE IT!!

jump in..

orange

with the fall season comes- Orange

Orange is often a color that is tough to use, yet some days you can sit right down and there it is. Kind of like a piece of pumpkin pie you can not eat it everyday.  But every once in a while you can top it with something cool and it will make you smile.

Layers are a girls best friend some days and this is definitely one of them.  In our neighborhood fall is bright and colorful.  Which is what has inspired me to try to add a touch of orange to the album.  My thoughts are it turned out delicious.

Be good to yourself today.

life is always in motion...

Charlie is no exception...he loves to play, run and move.

Mostly however Charlie loves to be together, he depends on it.  If you move he moves, which sometimes can get to be crazy given the fact he weighs over a 100 pounds.

He is happy and he face shows it everyday.  He is happy and life is in full motion.
