I'm chatting tonight at 10pm EST at Creative-Scrappers. Come and say hi if you are up!

Steve and I just came home from camping this weekend. We had such a great time. We rented a yurt at Tumalo State Park. My goodness...it was so adorable. We had bunk beds, a futon, coffee table and table and chairs. Though it was hot, it was quaint and perfect. Steve and I are not big on roughing it...so this was a perfect solution. We drank wine around the fire and visited with my family who was also camping (the real way..haha) in a near-by spot.

I will be sure to create a page..or two of the photos I got from our trip.

On a side note, I am the guest designer at Creative-Scrappers this week and I will be chatting live with the gals at Creative-Scrappers in just a few minutes. I totally should have thought about posting this earlier, but silly me here I am just about 15 minutes before letting you all know. If you are around and want to chat, stop by! I'd love to chat with you live :)

In closing here are a couple of my latest layouts. My Epson printer died a week ago *WHAAA* and so I had to go and get a new one. I purchased the HP Photosmart C5280 All-in-One photo printer and have yet to figure out how to make it scan nice like my Epson did. So sorry for the bad pics and scan jobs.

The first layout is for a blog I am going to be a part of bi-monthly.... "I Inspire Me" (I have a link to the right that takes you right to this challenge blog) challenge blog.

Our first challenge was to find something around our home that inspired us and use it as inspiration for a layout. I love my decorative pieces in my studio and the colors and textures....so that inspired this layout. Here is also a picture of my inspiration.

Well, that's it for today. I promise to come back with more layouts and pics in the next day or two.....Off to go and chat!
