Project 365, Week 5

I'm not totally crazy about this page, but it's another one complete.


A new digi trick

The DSM forum has a new contest out: Lucky in Love. April posted two head start challenges (for obsessive people like me...) and one is to create a layout with a repeating pattern. I understand this could be anything... photos that are square, circle, square, circle; or using stitching; or ... you remember those find the pattern problems from elementary school.

Well I decided I wanted to make an embossing pattern. It took me two hours to design the pattern, but once you do it you just tell it to fill the whole area with the pattern and it repeats. Does that make sense? And I can use this over and over with any shape or with any color.

Now I just have to figure out how to incorporate it into a layout. But needless to say I am very proud of my new trick!

WHAT?!?!


Sick at Home


I hate being home sick. It's so boring! I'm too miserable to do anything productive, so all I can do is sleep and play on the computer. Ethan's been sick all week, and Rob and I got it yesterday. Haven is trying desperately to avoid all contact with us so she doesn't get it! LOL!

Yesterday the band Pierce came to play at the church. They're fun. I didn't get to enjoy it though. Ended up leaving half way through because I felt so ill. Haven and Rob got to enjoy them though!

Today Ethan was totally talking and walking in his sleep. He started screaming at me that there was something in the chair and pointing to it and everything. Eyes open, walking around. Nothing in the chair... I talked him in to laying back down and he was back to sleep! So funny.
