My dad


This is my dad Henry. I took this picture in July at the Davidson/Watchman Family Reunion in Sawmill, AZ. Had a wonderful time there meeting new people and had a blast with my family. I don't get to see them alot. I'm guessing only about twice a year. It is always great to see such a happy smile on my dad.

mom


This is my mother Louise. I got this photo from her just this past July. I tried to use a kit that compliments the black and white photo.

Memories


I got this photo from my aunt Angie. I have never seen it before that. Gosh, I wish I could remember those days. From left to right is: me, cousin Gina, little sister Bernadette, cousin Christina and the last three I don't really know who they are. Gina and Christina are sisters.

Kitty


I was playing around with photo masks again. This is my friend Maria's cat. Her name is Kitty.

The Kawell children


The center woman in this photo is my mother-in-law, Ella. The others are her brothers and sisters. This layout was made with another amazing kit made from my Daisytrail friend, Anne. She is so talented. I just love her kits. I made the photo corners with the DSA program.

John 3:16


The most amazing scripture in the Bible. I really wanted to make this layout match the frame and all the embellishments. I made the cross from different shapes that I cut out from digital papers and used the DSA (Digital Scrapbook Artist) program to make it look like stone. Love that program...

Hayden Guy


I tried a different method with this layout. I used a black and white photo and put the pink color into the blanket. Again, the frame is a photo mask.

Desert Botanical Garden


I made this layout for a weekly challenge at Daisytrail. The theme that week was "Gardens". Since I don't have a garden and don't know where to look for one, I decided to do it on the gardens of Arizona desert.

Chooch

This is our dog Chooch. He is quite a character. Actually, Chooch is Brian's dog. In this layout, I was practicing with photo masks. I really like using photo masks. They make the picture more interesting.

Butterflies

Just playing around with a black and white kit, plus I really like butterflies...

Brooke


These photos of Brooke were taken in May 08. I just love taking pictures of her. She has such an amazing smile and glow about her.

Brittany & Tiara


These two beautiful girls are my nieces Brittany and Tiara. I took this picture of them last year. The both of them just graduated from high school (Brittany) and middle school (Tiara). I am so proud of the both of them. They always seem to have that smile everytime I see them.

Brian


One of my favorite photos of Brian when he was a baby. Brian was about 9 months old here. Now he is going to be 21 this year. Wow.....

The Bald Eagle


This layout is made using a new kit that was made by one of my online scrapbooking friends on Daisytrail. Her name is Anne. The kit is called Shell Seekers. Such a great kit to scap with...
