friends are always worth the trouble

Since taking this fun class I've been thinking about trying my hand at creating a digital scrapbook page. Well, earlier this week I won a giveaway on Amanda's blog where the prize was the entire July 2009 Collection by Crystal Wilkerson! I LOVE this collection! What a perfect opportunity to do my first "real" digital layout.

Last week Laurel, Rebecca & Lisa (who really needs a blog!) took me out to dinner at my favorite Mexican restaurant for my birthday. Lisa's hubby, Michael, snapped this picture of us before we left, and I love it. My only regret is that our friend, Pam (who also needs a blog!) wasn't able to join us. It would've been nice to have all of my besties in one picture.

I like how it turned out. It's nice to be able to add an element, and then remove it if you don't like how it looks. In paper scrapping that can be difficult, especially if you've already glued it down. Don't get me wrong, I'll definitely keep paper scrapping, I love the feel of the paper & pictures, but this is something fun to do on the side.



Well, it sounds like Jboy is about to wake up from his nap so I'd better run. Until next time!
