The Latest...

Hello and happy Thursday!

I must be honest, I am better about posting regularly on Facebook than here on my blog!  I apologize!  I'll try to get on here more often.  At the moment I'm doing many other things rather than what I should be doing and that's packing!  We are headed outta town for a few days - kidless!  I have mixed feelings about being gone for Halloween, but since we always trick or treat with my folks (and in-laws) and that's where our kids will be, they are super excited. 

We will be pheasant hunting with some dear long time friends of ours.  And where we are going is BEAUTIFUL country.  We didn't go last year and honestly I missed it!  We went the 2 years before that.  So it will be good to be back.  It's like stepping into a different lifestyle.  More s-i-m-p-l-e.  I'll have some digital scrapbook pages to share before long to capture the memories of our trip :)

I've asked my in-laws and parents to snap lots of pix of the kids in costumes!  I'm thankful school Halloween parties are tomorrow so I'll get to be a part of all of that - I'll be the extra-annoying-flash-blinding-mom tomorrow!

I wanted to show you a few more Greeting Cards I've released - check below them for their names.  When you email me at theorangeclothesline@gmail.com, please be sure to include the name of the card so I know which on  you would like for your Holiday cards this year!  I can't wait to get started & be a part of spreading holiday joy!

Greeting Cards 2011!

It's that time of year again ALREADY!  Time to think about GREETING cards!  And I'm super excited to be offering them this year!  I wanted to start spreading the word :)  So here is the WORD!  Let me know if you have any questions at all - also, if you would like a Bible verse added or different wording, I am happy to do that.  Fun stuff!  I am working on adding more 4x8 designs as well.  So get clickin' with your photos!  I'd love the opportunity to work on your greeting cards this year!

Trying to get current!

Sure, I have lots of pages to go back and catch up on, but there is something to be said about trying to get current!  At least working on current stuff...  It helps with journaling, that's for sure. 

I'll save some "backload" for the upcoming retreat I'm attending in November with a dear friend.  Looking forward to that!

I wanted to share these first day of school pages with you, from September.  Hard to believe school started up a month ago!  Both of these set of pages were made using Just So Scrappy's "Back 2 School" kit.  I mixed up the papers a bit, but using the same layout surely saves time!  I can't believe how fast our boys are growin' up!

Show & Tell

This morning I had the opportunity to bring some scrapbooks to church and share them with our mom's group!  That was fun!  I got to tell them a little about what digital scrapbooking is and show them the difference between what traditional scrapbook pages look like behind page protectors vs. digital pages.  

Ohh what you can do with digital scrapbooking!  Here are some misc pages they got to see today!





shout out to Just So Scrappy & Bella Gypsy for the cute papers!
