May 27, 2008 Day 9

Back from the long weekend...had a great time! Happy Memorial Day, everyone! We had a wonderful time together as a family....crappy weather, but we were together! so...it's all good!

Ok, Day 9! How did everyone do on the wagon over the weekend? Any 'jumpers'? hee! For me? my report is a 100%! Happy to say: I did it! I am totally amazed...had to really push myself, but, I did, indeed, exercise for 60 min. everyday except Sunday! So...how are YOU doing? :) I wanna hear...don't be shy!

Tuesday means: New Digital Kits in the store!  Woohoo! I am in love with these kits! Singles...how can you beat 99 centavos?

 

And....how about another Vintage Photo Tool Kit ? This is so much fun & you get a lot of bang for your buck! 

It comes with textures, frames, a PDF Tutorial on HOW to use the kit AND>>>>get this: a huuuuuge brush kit filled with 70 distress/grunge brushes...all NEW! They are so fun! I created this kit about a month ago & I can not get enough of it...I've been using it for everything!

Here's a close up of one of the photos/frames/textures I used for the preview!

 

I just dragged & dropped a texture over my photo (with a Light Mode Overlay applied) for this look. Then, I put the frame over it.  The new vintage frames are so fun! And...then, I went through with the brushes & just distressed some more & voila!A totally fun photo!  **and remember, if you need info on a commercial license, please contact: This e-mail address is being protected from spam bots, you need JavaScript enabled to view it !

my heart healthy report: did it again. 60 min. o' exercise. I was telling my sister yesterday that I was feelin' so much better...that I could tell that those green smoothies, exercise, water & all my effort was paying off! Woke up this morning with no headache...again. For those of you that know me: this is huge. I always have a headache...for days on end! So...I'm so very happy!

Ok, I am not aspiring to be a fab photographer..I really have tons to learn ~ BUT>>>> I seriously have fun taking photos...just random ones. Just ones to have a play with fantastic, fun Actions like these by Nichole!  Um, yea...  so very fun to play with! Just bought some this morning & here I am....racing with the clock to meet some deadlines & what do I do? Play. hmmm...

 

better go get my work done!

have a fab weekend!

do NOT give up....even thought it's the weekend...we must stay strong..we can do it!

feelin' heart healthy? how are you doing? I had someone ask me ....what if I didn't see this until after you started?  The answer:

join in anyway! 

really; it doesn't matter...any good lifestyle changes you start as soon as you see this is good, right? so, jump on it! And if you fall off the wagon one day...keep it going! My report: I excersised again for 60 min. today...even though I felt sooo tired! It's all good...I got to create!

 

One Little Word (inspired by Ali Edwards ) was started by some very cool, talented girls! And, over at Two Peas , we were asked create digital kits with this word prompt in mind: THINK.  Totally had fun creating this layout with this kit. Digitally; a lot of  overlay light modes going on here and that fun photo is by the fab Sande! Thanks sweets!

And, as I said before: this kit comes with a font...it has become one of my fave fonts! Love it! And the number brushes & swirls are all new coming soon!

Have a great day...do something cReative! I'm working on some soldering projects...I'm hoping to show you to tomorrow!
