I'm in the Pink!

Well at least for one day.
These are my Pink items for my first time participating in Pink Saturday. I've made a Pink baby journal book. A Pink baby photo brag book. And I recycled these Starbucks Frappuccino bottles into a cute little Pink storage caddy where you can put cotton balls to hair ribbons for a baby girl. I used these supplies: Spray glue, Quick Quotes Pink papers, Quick Kutz, Paper lace trim, Fiskars punch, bind-it-all , ribbons, buttons and ribbon flower, and other embellishments.
Oh, by the way I have no children of my own just my step children who are all adults now. I'm thinking though this would make a sweet gift....some day when I'm ready to part with them. I'm gonna do my best to visit everyone participating. And you can too. Just click on the pink Saturday's badge in my sidebar to see who all is participating. Have fun!
I'm deleting duplicate comments....thought you might want to know.
And if didn't know you can left click on the photo to make it larger and see some of the details.

Hit While the Iron Is Hot.

You may not know this about me but I have a sever case of "Etcha~Sketch" brain...it's there, it's there and then it's gone. Gone for the most part and I'm left wondering if I'll ever be able to get it back. So while the ol' brain bucket was in the ON mode...I had to do the latest lesson from Creative Workshop. As they say...hit it (or is it get it) while the iron is hot...(see what I mean). Sometimes I crack myself up. So this is my latest creation following to the best of my ability to what Gail did. Only one more lesson from Gail for this Collage Workshop will be next week. Then I'm on my own for awhile.

In The Learning Stages

Following What Gail did
Me, messing around with the layer effects ..Not very good
but oh so much fun.
I know, I know I'm way behind the times when it comes to digital art. So I have broken down and purchased my first computer program Adobe PhotoShop Elements 7. I have used other editing programs that come with the computer. And for the most part I'm self taught. But sometimes you just need help. In this case a lot of help. So I'm taking a class from Creative Workshops with Gail Schmit. So here are my first two projects I did this weekend.
So I'll be sharing my progress with you. Let's hope I make some.
