Winter Wishes

It doesn't seem possible that it has been eleven days since I have last posted. It has been a very busy eleven days. I have been busy at my new job and I find it is more taxing on the brain as you get older to start a new job, but it is invigorating and I am really excited about the work I do. But as a result, I am having to find a new balance for my hobbies, digital scrapping included. Granted the holidays have thrown off the schedule a little. I am excited about some of the holiday pictures that I took yesterday and couldn't wait to use a great picture of a cardinal I took. I thought the stark contrast of red against a blue themed kit would be great.

I created this page using Danielle Christiansen's Winter Wishes kit. The kit provided such a wonderful canvas to promote this beautiful red cardinal that was flying around in the trees outside my parents' living room window. He seems to be looking right at me...waiting for his picture to be taken.

Hope everyone had a safe and wonderful Christmas and will look forward to the holiday pages that so many with scrap.

Winter Flannel

Well, what a busy day. I started a part-time job today for a large funeral home in the area and will be a part of the support staff to the funeral directors. I will be a member of the team that creates the folders for the services, creating memorial DVDs and other items that pay tribute to loved ones that have passed on. I look forward to utilizing my skills to help others during their time of grieving. It will be a job that comes with gratification of helping others.

In the meantime...

I have added another to my list of those that I CT for. I have joined the creative team over at Designs in Digital. One of the kits that is a collaboration kit this month is called Winter Flannel. It was created by Gone Scrappin' Designs and Tiger Lily's Designs. Here is a layout I created using the kit. I have it posted in many of my online galleries.

Will only post a short post for this evening. Must cook dinner. Have a good evening.
