School's Out! New Kit!
Yesterday was the final day of school for Taylor. I get my sweetie home with me now for the summer. Next autumn she can start school as a proud 4th grader! I've watched her ability at math, her creativity in writing, and her overall confidence to peek out at the world from her shy shell grow this year. And she grew another 1 1/2 inches through the school year!!! LOL
Taylor has been playing softball this spring. Her team finally pulled together and started making hits and doing better fielding and won three games in a row. But last night lost when the game was called half way through due to the rain that had been falling almost the whole game. They always play better as the game progresses so who know, maybe they'd have won 4 in a row if the game had been allowed to continue. But Taylor did hit 2 for 2 and brought in a run so she was quite happy - and her teacher from school came and caught just the last few minutes of the game. A nice little thrill for Taylor because she doesn't know where Mrs. Olson will teach next year and saying goodbye to your teacher for the year is always hard.
Finally.... my new kit, Softball Princess will release at my store in scrapbook-elements tomorrow morning. I am so loving scrapping with this kit. Just go to my store link in the sidebar on Sunday to get it.
Here are some previews and layouts:

Nature in the Backyard
After several days of spectacular weather, yesterday was rainy again. Taylor's softball game cancelled. This morning, while cool, there is lots of blue sky and sunshine mixed with giant puffy white clouds gently sailing by. They seem to be missing the brooding quality of rain clouds so I think the rain may be done - and more spectacular weather is supposed to be on the way. During last weekends amazing weather we brought out all our deck furniture and pots of flowers and Taylor's 'fairy garden' emerged.
When we moved here there was an enormous open field behind us with a small mountain (molehill?) covered in mostly evergreens. We are lucky to live almost on an urban boundary where we can walk to see horses in fields and on a good day a deer may be found eating the wild grasses. On a bad day he may be eating your tomato plants! I used to think it was slugs that did that until my neighbor informed of what he saw. lol. I have pics of those deer on my cell phone from last week but don't have a clue how to download things of the cellphone. That might mean actually reading a manual. Have I ever mentioned how badly I detest reading manuals?
Well, 5 years after moving to our paradise, houses were built on a curving street behind us. Really big houses. Way too close to the rear of our house! Really high roofs. In retrospect it is good that the builder lowered that land 15 feet from us. But we still don't think it is good that that builder refused to build a fence behind us after creating a cliff! So let me say how secretly pleased I was when with the drop of the economy he had several houses sitting, just costing him money, long after they were built. In fact, he still has one behind us remaining unsold. If I could place an evil laughter sound here I would! All we see mind us now are rooftops. It's very ugly. Lucky for us we had that molehill covered in evergreens that rises above those roofs. I usually sit in my comfy brown leather chair, with my feet up, designing on my laptop, with that beautiful mountain sticking up to look at. Which brings me back full circle to the title of this post: nature in the backyard!
As I walked back in the house this morning from dropping Taylor at school I got to see a spectacular looking American Goldfinch sitting in Taylor's fairy garden working on eating the seeds Mike accidentally kicked into it on the weekend. Her little planter sits right beside my 'designing chair' at the window and that goldfinch let me come right up and watch for a while. After about 5 minutes, it finally flew away. In spring we see a lot more varieties of birds around us than later in the year. We love watching the birds swoop around the sky in their aerial displays.
Other morning bird news. As Taylor and I were about to get into the car for the trip to school a hummingbird visited us in the garage. We wondered if it was the same hummingbird we had trouble getting 'out' of our garage during the blizzards last December!
And final bird news of the morning. We have a 'stupid' robin in the neighborhood again. I say stupid because he chooses to attack our windows thinking he sees territorial enemies in our windows. So every day the robin spends a while flying up to the same window attacking it and then wiping its poopy butt against the glass. Messy and funny at the same time.
Watching a new (for me) TV show on HBO. Well actually in my ON DEMAND for HBO. Good friend mentioned it to me: It's called True Blood. And is about vampires being accepted into main stream society. NOT A KIDS SHOW - THEY SHOULDN'T EVEN BE IN THE SAME HOUSE IF YOU CHOOSE TO WATCH! LOL. To say there is nudity and sexuality in this show would simply be an understatement. Yet still, the show has perked my interest so I'll be watching episodes to catch up on year one of the show, while I design or work on websites in my brown leather chair.
Thats it for now. I'm out.

Just another day, but a frustrating one.
We're just ending a fantastic steak of weather... highs in the 80's. Wahoooo!
This morning I did my water aerobic class. For the first time there are no kickboards available for the class, but lucky for me another lady handed me hers preferring a foam tube for the exercises. For the first time I did it in full makeup because I was going to get new passport photos taken right after at Costco. Well wouldn't you know it. The instructor gets everyone doing some kicking thing in the pool and I get two big splashers on either side of me. Splish splash splish splash right down on my hair. My hair that is ready for passport photos. Did you know that kickboards can be used as umbrellas? Well the health club has this cool machine that wrings out swimsuits. Today my locker was right beside it. I always bring an extra small towel to stand on as I change into dry clothes. Did you know that all the water wrung out of a swimsuit in one of these machines splashes directly on the floor? Another not happy discovery for me. lol.
So I go into Costco to get my passport photos taken. Did I mention these are Canadian passport photos? They have diffent requirements for the photos and Costco can't do it. Trying to think of where I can get this done and I go to 3 more photo studios over the next hour to no avail. Hair is not looking so perky anymore and makeup is probably fading into my face at this point. Every place I went I asked for suggestions. One placed (kudos to Picture People for this!!!) mentioned going to AAA. Well I do have a membership and yes, they could do it.
Later came the fun of paying huge fees to courier my passport info up to Canada. Now I just have to hope it arrives in time for my trip which I booked later in the summer just to give it enough time to arrive. Last time I went to Toronto with my family my husband's and daughter's passports arrived with only days to spare!
So later in the afternoon hubby sends me off to get new tires for my car. Les Schwab here I come. Boring and expensive. Strangely my neigbor turned up 10 minutes before I was done. At least that was a nice little chat.
Now to the gas station. Pull in with no pumps available for the side of the car I need. Start to turn around to go into a spot and some @^#%&^*& pulls into it behind me. I yell at the attendant and he finds me a spot. In fact, one look at my face and he finds me that spot quickly. Hubby calls and asked if I got a good deal on the tires. Told him I didn't bargain and he tells me but that was why he sent me to boredom land and not himself. I guess he should have told me. I tell him the gas station attendant is probably filling the car with water right now because I got pissy. Did I mention that an older lady in the grocery store the other day said I had a very happy disposition and it was such a pleasure. I forgot to bring my disposition to the gas station apparently.
Accidentally forgot to plan a dinner on purpose. (really that makes a lot more sense than one might think) But I didn't suggest we go out. Made spaghetti with sauce straight from a bottle. Daughter claimed the sauce tasted sour and wondered why our faces go into such a funny position when we eat something sour. I told her to rinse her noodles in the sink.
I'd like to say that tomorrow I get to keep working on my Circus Kit. But I have 2 websites I'm in the middle of redoing and they need to get my focus. Alas. I really want to do the other type of designing.
But I have at least done some scrapping recently. Here's some layouts. Credits can be found under mybetrside at digishoptalk.com.

Creamy Chicken Enchiladas
Well yum! We tried a new recipe tonight as Taylor is finally wanting to explore more food options and thus more recipes. Thus, this past week she's had my Szcechaun Stir Fry and actually went looking for extra broccoli because she liked it so much in the sauce, and fish in a pineapple salsa. Tonight we have successfully added Creamy Chicken Enchiladas to our growing list of yummy dinner recipes. This recipe came right off the Campbell's website.
Creamy Chicken Enchiladas
From: Campbell's Kitchen

Bake: 40 minutes
Serves: 6

1 can (10 3/4 ounces) Campbell's® Condensed Cream of Chicken Soup (Regular, 98% Fat Free or 25% Less Sodium)

2 teaspoons chili powder
2 cups chopped cooked chicken
1 cup shredded Monterey Jack cheese (about 4 ounces)
10 flour tortillas (6-inch), warmed
1 medium tomato, chopped (about 1 cup)
1 green onion, sliced (about 2 tablespoons)
Directions:
Stir the soup, sour cream, picante sauce and chili powder in a medium bowl.

New this Sunday: Kiss Me! I'm Irish Today
In our home St. Patrick's Day tends to arrive with a collection of funny hats, glasses, etc modeled for the camera. Gotta pay homage to hubbys Irish ancestry. After all, he's only a generation or so away from speaking with a heavy Irish brogue. (hmmmm... is that the right word?) I'm glad it falls on a school day this year so Taylor can have all the more fun being half Irish.
This years kit was created to highlight the fun aspects of this day from your little baby celebrating their first St. Paddys Day with baby food of ground up cabbage, corned beef, carrots & potatoes - to dad's celebration with a mug of beer. And since my daughter has been creating leprechaun traps for the past 3 years, I had to make sure I included doodles for that too!

Tantrum
Taylor got very mad that we wouldn't let her watch a full movie just before bed. She is 2 months shy of 3 in this clip. (presently Taylor is 9 and has to plug her ears to watch this - you might want to too!)

Taylor at 4. We're coming home from fishing. That lollypop must have been pretty good because she was trying hard to eat the lollypop and sleep at the same time!

A kit for Stuffed Animals... Quirky Stuffys
Coming out next Sunday:
I'll show you bits of it each day (if I remember - lol) until the weekend.
So here are some animals...
I've tried to give them the feel of floppy stuffed animals because my daughter loves those best!!!
These first three are on clear acetate.
Each animal also comes in various formats such as these white rimmed stickers too!

While I was creating my Lost in Space Addon kit, my daughter drew her own alien. So I decided to create him on the computer and make him available to you all. So have fun with "Taylor's Alien" Download here! Password votetoday

New Releases for Sunday February 15th!
Here is a fun addon kit to my original Lost in Space digital scrapbooking kit. Introducing Lost in Space - the Addon! Digital Scrapbooking Freebee for this kit in my next post!!!
And here is a little something for the designers... Strings. Having a monitor that I can draw directly on means I can get extremely clean extractions. These are from my own pictures - carefully extracted. Fairly liberal commercial use/professional use terms.
And finally an easy to use new alpha - White Cardboard Alpha will easily blend with many of your layouts.

Layouts: Walk-thru Wild Game Safari Park
Last August we went to the West Coast Game Park Walk-Thru Safari on the Oregon coast while we were vacationing by the ocean. These are my layouts. You can click on them (though I'd suggest right click and open in new tab/window) to see them larger. I used very few products to create these as I wanted the photos to be the true center of attention! Papers from Trish Jones and alphas both from Christina Renee.
