Both my boys are sick. Doug is at the doctor RIGHT NOW to find out what's wrong with him.. He thinks Pneumonia. Caleb had a fever all day yesterday and didn't sleep much last night. No clue what's up with him, possibly teething but, maybe not. Maybe he's fighting whatever Daddy has.
I don't get to scrap unless Daddy watches Caleb so, if Daddy's sick, that's not going to happen.. So, we'll see.
I had planned on doing at least 5 layouts this week from challenges on M2R. (pout pout)
I have their October kit I need use up .. I am literally chomping at the bit to use it. I took the pumpkin patch pics specifically to match the papers in the kit. LMBO.. How lame am I! tee hee
In other news though, I finally started working with photo actions from this place. LOVE THEM!
Here's one I did at 2am this morning. Not sure if I like it or not on this particular photo (vivid color action):
Before:
After:
What do YOU think? Which would you use on a scrapbook layout? Is the bottom one TOO bright?
I know NOTHING about PS Elements other than very very basic stuff and how to add color here and there so, I'm not sure how to adjust the actions.. I guess I should probably figure that out soon.. LOL
Sooooooo... I have some news!!!!
In honor of my blog being two weeks old, I'm giving away a RAOK (Random Act of Kindness). I'll use an online computer generator to determine the winner on, let's say, Friday at 9pm EST.
So leave me some love on this post for your chance to win this brand new Kaiser Craft 2008 album worth $6 >
And oh yeah, how flippin' cute is this!!?? I'm in total LOVE with this.. GOTTA have it!!! Prima makes the best stuff!! >
That's all for now, folks. I better go play with my little guy. Have a great day!!
I like the cropped photo and don't think it is too bright. Can't wait to see the finished layout.
