Feeling Icky

Sorry. There are no new layouts for this week. I had a week long professional development workshop last week, which was fabulous. I really got a lot of new ideas to try in my classroom for Reading, Math, Science, & Writing.

However, I have been fighting a horrible sinus infection and finally decided I needed to actually do something about it before it was time to head back to the classroom. So, today I am feeling the effects of the drugs....you know how the antihistamines and decongestants make you feel.....YUKKY!! Well that is me today. But, Hopefully it will cure me of my ills and I will be back to right in no time.

Nothing much else going on in this neck of the woods....so.....

Until Next Time.....

New Layouts

I have had quite a bit of fun playing with the challenges over at Digital Scrap Garden this week. I have gotten several layouts finished and a few more in the works.

This one was done for the Font Fun challenge

This one was done for the Scraplift Challenge.

This is for the Template Challenge.

This last one serves two purposes actually. One is for the Garden Salad Challenge and also to try and persuade my oldest son that he needs a new picture for his Facebook page.

OK...that is all I have for right now...so.....

Until Next Time!!!

Two New Layouts

I have been really busy today. I finished two layouts, which are actually challenges at Digital Scrap Garden. I did the usual household engineering stuff....you know...laundry, dishes, floors, etc. Then I worked on my big unit (Japan) for my gifted students for the Fall session of our classes. Now its time to go and see if I can find some spectacular shots to catch with my camera. The light will be just about right.

But, before I go here are the two layouts I finished this morning.

If you have checked out my photography blog, then you will recognize this photo as one I shot on my little run-about yesterday.

This next one is of my beautiful baby granddaughter, Jessi...who currently lives in Germany where this photo was taken by her Mom (Tanya aka taun) using a Canon Rebel xSi.

OK...I have also finished a little paper pack that I have decided to give away to everyone that leaves a comment on this post.(I will need a way to get the link to you...so perhaps an email...could be given)...the two papers that make up my blog background are part of this paper pack...Here is what the pack looks like...

So, if you want the paper pack......please leave a comment....Even if you don't want the paper pack...PLZ leave a comment. I really love reading all the comments.:)

Until Next Time!

New Photography Blog

I have given the issue of combining my scrapping/designing blog with my passion for photography and decided that my photography needs it own area for display.

So, all of my photography will be displayed on a new blog called Dee Bibb Photography. Go ahead....jump on over there an check out my first post.

I took a little drive this afternoon and got some pretty good shots from around my area.

I hope you enjoy them.

Maybe I will get some layouts done by the end of this week and get them posted.

Until Next Time!!

OK...My entry for I Heart Faces.....

Furbs is part of our family....sometimes I think he believes he is human. He really likes to pose for the camera. So, I decided to use this photo of him to enter the "pets only" theme weekly challenge over at I Heart Faces.



More pics later!

Until Next Time!!

Photography

For as long as I can remember, I have had a camera to point and shoot my family, friends, pets, you name it. I have always been the "one" behind the camera. I have some photos that no one wants seen because I seem to just click, click, click most of the time.

However, here recently, I have begun to look more into the "subjects" of my photography and have taken a REAL interest in the learning aspects of what is behind all of this 'point & shoot'.

Since I don't have any small children at home....most of my photos are likely to be my cat Furby or Furbs as he is called most of the time, or perhaps my dear sweet husband.....who tolerates my incessant clicking without too much complaint. Actually Furbs complains more than the husband.

I don't have an expensive camera. I just use a Kodak EasyShare C533....but for now..that is fine while I learn more about the finer aspects of photography.

I took these photos yesterday evening.





And of course.....one of my DH...Charles.



I would love to see your comments on my photos....I am an amateur and trying to learn about photography...It has always been a passion of mine...so any constructive comments are quite welcome.

Oh...BTW...my DIL put me on to this site....it has all sorts of great info....you might want to check it out. I Heart Faces.

Until Next Time!!
