Boys Just Wanna Have Fun!

I have two sons and they have several different interests. This day I captured them playing badminton with their Dad. They always seem to have fun no matter what they are doing. My boys like to goof around and laugh a lot! Dad enjoys spending fun time with them also. I combined the pictures with a favorite background (a picture) of some beautiful autumn trees in the area where we live. 

Thanks for taking a look.

Hello Fall

This is another of my digital scrapbooking pages. I am really having some fun making these. Before now I used to struggle trying to figure out what to do. I did some research as to what other people do and it is starting to click. Eventually I will start to use up my physical supplies when I feel I know what I am doing!

I would like to add this to the following challenges:

Stuck?! Sketches- New Sketch challenge for Oct 15

here is a picture of the sketch:

Farm Boy

All digital scrapbook page.This is a picture of my husband as he goes about his chores on our hobby farm. We have about 20 sheep that he cares for. There is a mixture of ewes, lambs, and one ram. I'll have to create a page with pictures of my sheep someday. I did all kinds of texturing with the picture and the page using adjustments. I like how the stitching came out using drop shadows and embossing. It really looks like thread on the page! 

I used digital items from Pixel Scrapper designers:

Elif Sahin, Sheila Reid, Alexis design studio, and J Kneipp

Play-a digital scrapbook page

I've been working on digital scrapbook pages lately and I made this one highlighting my son and my two grandchildren. They look like they are having a lot of fun just being together. I love it! Isn't it wonderful when your family is getting along and having fun vs fighting? 

I used some scrapbooking supplies from Scrapbook Graphics artists: 

Flergs- Smile Laugh Play and 

Tangie-Confabulations; Journal Anthology9; and quidoodles

Scanner fixed and a Face!

I know it doesn't look like much but it is just a face. I did not draw the shape of the head but it is implied. What do you think? I need to work some more on mouth's and eyes for sure. It's a start though. 

Technical Difficulties

Well, I haven't been able to upload any pictures yet because of technical difficulties. I will keep working on my faces but I probably won't be able to post them for awhile. If anyone is checking these posts please come back later in the month. I hope to have some faces by then. Thanks.

29 Faces in September 2016

                             

Going to try to do this challenge in September. You try to draw, paint, sketch or create a face however you want. I am going to try all kinds of art materials to make my faces. For instance: pencil, watercolors, acrylic paint, and whatever else I have in my supply cabinet. I'll be posting my art work on my "Getting Messy with Art" blog.
