Hi everyone, I am starting a new blog today! I am not sure if I will keep this one or not, my new blog address is
http://www.debammerman.com/ I am not very good about updating, as you know, but I will try to do better. Here is a page I did yesterday from my son’s martial arts class.
I am so proud of Matthew for continuing on with his classes. He started this many years ago, he was in the first or second grade, and now he is in 7th grade! Part of his requirements for this semester was that he had to help his instructor in the classes before his own. The first class has little kids in it, about the age Matthew was when he first started, as I watched, I remembered… He started this when he was this little! WOW! They grow up so fast, it seemed like only yesterday!
I used my
Martial Arts kit for this page, it can be found in the store at
Deco-Pages.
I don't know if you have heard about the
photography challenge at
Deco-Pages, but I would love it if you would come and check it out! This month we are doing a photo a day challenge. Every day you have to take at least one photo, and create a page with it. Because December is such a busy month for everyone, I am extending the dead-line for submission of your pages until January 15th, but by that date, you have to have 31 pages done.
If you hear about this challenge and have not been taking photos all month, I will allow you to play catch-up... but you must post to the thread in the forum on the day you intend to start, so that I can watch for your pages to come in. Here is a link to the
Photography Challenge at

Here are a couple of the pages I have done for the challenge so far...
We love to tease Matthew, and always tell him we are going to get him Barbie Dolls for Christmas... Today there was one on the kitchen table when we got home, and Matthew saw it, and I think his heart skipped a beat! LOL! He is so much fun to tease! Jeff picked these things up to give to the Toys for Tots program tomorrow.I used the December Color Challenge Starter kit by Lori Staton for this page, I thought it was just perfect! I love the way the page came out, Thank you so much Lori!
Now that Matthew is getting older, I have desided that he needs to learn how to do some things, so it was time to pass along the secret recipe for our family meat balls and sauce... some day, his future wife will thank me! LOL!
I used the quick page by Burkhart Scrapzone from the Cabin Fever Mega Kit for Club Deco, which is available for download all through December for our Club Deco Members. If you are not a member yet, this is just one great reason to join! Michaele, thank you so much for the Quick Page, it worked out great for this page... I did rotate it.
