Gotta tell ya . . .

I've had a full plate lately.  It almost seems like it's been busier than the holidays for some reason.  I'm teaching a group of  9 homeschool girls and parents the ins & outs of Photoshop Elements with the ultimate goal of designing a 100 page yearbook by year end.  It's been very time consuming and it's stretching my brain :)  What I didn't count on is how rewarding it would be.  The girls LOVE photoshop & digital scrapbooking.  I mean seriously LOVE it!  Not to mention that the stuff they're creating is knocking my socks off!

The only problem with teaching others and having my socks knocked off is that my creativity has all but dried up.  I'm using every ounce of it to teach, not my own creations.  So today, I said enough is enough!  Creashens new kit is soooooo fabulous I HAVE to use it.  So I paired it up with a new template challenge on Catscrap.com and this is what I came up with.  For me, the journaling is a bit lame . . . after I posted it I came up with way better journaling about swirling skirts and dainty legs and all kinds of metaphors for life . . . but oh well.  I created :)





Everything from Creashens new kit DAINTY available at catscrap.com and twolittlepixels.com

We're in a contest!

Alorah & I made this video for a contest with our homeschool charter school Visions.  Well, actually all the Williams contributed!  It went live today and is supposed to be voted on by the public.  The top winner gets a HUGE prize!  Would you mind taking a few minutes out of your day to rate our video (5 out of 5 stars would be ideal) and help the Williams kids win big!
