I am so excited, because I am hosting another Photography challenge for the month of May at Deco-Pages.com (
http://www.deco-page.com/) and we are having such a good time. I have created a page every day along with the other participants... it's been so much fun to see all the beautiful Spring flowers and more... If you are not a Club Deco Member, these are 8 wonderful reasons why you should join the Club! All of the pages (except for the Martial Arts page) were created with Quick Pages from the Mother's Day - May 2008 - Mega Kit for Club Deco Members. Every Month our Design Team gets together and creates a HUGE kit for our Club Deco Members... we choose a color pallet and a theme, and then every designer creates a mini kit and Quick Pages for our members! I am telling you, this is the deal of a lifetime! You can now try the Club for one month for just $7.99 ... One Club Deco kit is worth way more than $20.00! You can also buy a 3 month trial membership for $15.00 or the Annual Membership is just $36.00 for a full year of Club Deco! If you are a registered user in our forum, you can order your subscription by coming to our forum...

T.G.I.F.!!!! It was a very busy week for me, and I am so glad it is over and the weekend is here. On my break at work today I saw these dandelion seeds and I remembered when I was a child, how much I used to love to blow on them and watch the little seeds drift away. This little ball of fun reminded me of the days when my Mom would have the neighbors up in arms because we always had so many dandelions in our yard, and to them, they all wanted a rich green lawn, with no pretty little yellow flowers in it. Mom could never seem to get them under control. I created this page with one of CAZ Quick Pages from the Mother's Day Mega Kit for Club Deco Members for the month of May. This is such a beautiful page to work with! I love the way this came out! Thank you so much Carol!
Before I raked the leaves away this afternoon I took these photos. My Mom told me that she wanted to go home to Long Island and be put to rest in the cemetery where her family is, so we did as she asked. The first Spring after she was gone, I felt bad that I was so far away. So I purchased this Angel and put it in my back yard. I plant flowers for her here, and I sit and talk to her... I think of her and the times we had together.I think of the times when I held her hand, or we just sat and watched some old movie on TV that she loved. I think about cups of tea with sugar and milk, Macaroni's on Sunday, the smell of her perfume... all bring me quiet moments of gratitude.Mary Ridgeway's Quick Page was just perfect for these photos and the journaling I wanted to do. Mary created this Quick Page with her contribution to the Mother's Day Mega Kit for Club Deco Members. Thank you so much Mary!
I saw my scarecrow peaking out behind the bookcase today and decided he had to be moved out where I could see him... Thank you so much Marcee (RoseMade Designs) for your wonderful quick page from the Club Deco - May 2008 Mega Kit - Mother's Day! With a little color change, it was just perfect for what I wanted to do. Gotta love the ability to change colors with digital... not so easy to do with traditional scrapbooking supplies!
It was a beautiful day yesterday, and I had an errand to run for work... who would NOT volunteer to go pick up printer paper on such a perfect day, esp. if one has a digital camera in her purse! LOL!I used one of Dragons Lair Designs Quick pages from the May 2008 Mega Kit for Club Deco Members - Mother's Day for this. I did change the colors to match my photo, added a flower from the kit, and a jounaling area with rounded corners. Thank you so much for the Quick Page! I love the way this turned out!
It was another beautiful day today, so I was able to take a walk by the river again.My breakroom at work is grand when the sun is shining and mother nature fills it with beautiful flowers for all to enjoy! I was taking photos up by a tree, when the shutter went off on the camera, a woman walking on the path gasped and said I scared her. I guess she did not see me up there taking photos. Maybe next time I am on a photo shoot, I should wear a bell around my neck. Do you think that is why cows wear bells? I used Carol Rupley's Quick Page for this! I just love Carol's page... it really worked out great for my photo! Thanks Carol!
All winter long as I look out our living room window at the barren tree with the nest still sitting in it, I wondered if in the spring the Robins would use it again... well they have been rebuilding... And the tree is in bloom and looks so pretty.I used a Quick Page by Carol Rupley from the Mother's Day kit for Club Deco for this page! I just loved it! Thanks Carol!
Today was a very exciting day for Matthew, he was awarded a Black Belt in his Martial Arts Class. This is the first time in 10 years that Mr. Josh has given out a Black Belt, and Matthew and Dwight (not pictured) were the first to get them. This is a new kit I am working on that will be available in our store very soon at

Before work today, the sun was out for just a little bit, and I saw this pretty little weed and had to get a shot! It's fun how this challenge makes me look for things I might not have taken the time to see before! These little flowers are much smaller in real life than they are in the photo! I used one of the quick pages I created for the May 2008 Club Deco Mega Kit - Mother's Day!
I took this photo yesterday on a little break from designing ads for my day-job. This sculpture caught my eye. Club Deco - Mother's Day - Quick Page by Burkhart Scrapzone
