Family Digi Layouts(Bug Bytes)

Hi ~ Lori here from ScrappinMyStressAway  with some digi layouts to share at the BugBytes today.

Many of you know that I broke my right wrist recently.  Yes I am right handed!!

One good thing that came of my broken wrist is I sat around a lot for the first week being waited on by my wonderful husband and sons!!

I also spent a ton of time on my laptop.  I took this time to play around with a digi software program I have had for a while.  I know Pam is an awesome digi gal and I was a bit nervous to post these beginning projects here, but Pam has always been super supportive and helpful and I know she won't laugh at my left-handed beginning work!!!

The first layout (above) is a simple layout.  I added the photo, 2 brads and the love charm. 

Here is my lovely cast!!!

This layout was more challenging.  I started out with the blue polkadot paper and added the scallop (with a shadow) and then my two photos (with white borders and shadows).

 I added my title and journal (Tanner & Sabryna blowing bubbles after our annual egg hunt).

Tanner is my youngest son and Sabryna is my youngest niece.  They are 6 weeks apart and I love taking photos of them together!

I added the flowers and put brads in the centers.

I added the ribbon, but did not realize that the ribbon was not 12" long.  I went back to try to lengthen it and got an error message that meant the print quality would be compromised.

Soooo....

I went back to my photo file and cropped it!!

If you are wondering what software I used and are curious to try it out:

Use my code:STMMMS39803 to save $10 off the software, and save $10 in their digital store.  They also have several free items and specials every month!  You can go to their website and look around for free  if you want :)

Thanks Pam for having me over today!!

Ouch!

I apologize for the photo quality as I have not yet mastered my Nikon left handed yet.  I broke my right wrist Wednesday setting up for my Gypsy class.  The pain is constant, but I am also frustrated with my lack of mobility!!!

I have a couple of posts all ready to go (thank goodness) and have taken this opportunity to play with some digital scrapbooking.  I even played a bit with my Gypsy -enough to know I prefer the right hand orientation even with limited use of my left hand.

I am hoping to have my friend Jenny help me complete some projects or even Guest Design (hint hint)!!!

Here is a layout I created last night about Tanner's Kindergarten Graduation.

If you are interested in saving $10 off the software plus $10 off add ons (like background papers, embellishments or album kits), use my code:  STMMMS39803.

I will keep you posted about my wrist and would love for you to sign my cast by leaving me a comment!!!
