Scrapbooking is one of the many things I like to do. From time to time I will write about something in that area that interests me and hopefully someone else.

April Showers
Today's blog is the fulfillment for the Monday challenge on the blog Fantabulouscricut. It took me some time to get the layout done, but it allowed me to use some of the supplies I have had for years, such as chalk and rubons. As I was doing this layout, I learned a few things along the way. I had designed the layout using Design Studio one evening while watching TV. Yes, I'm usually on the laptop while I watch TV. You know killing two birds with one stone thingy. I learned how to do welding on the Design Studio. Yesterday I learned how to transfer the file from Design Studio to the Gypsy. The other thing I learned on the Gypsy was how to identify the thing on your layout design that doesn't have a downloaded cartridge. I used the Cricut Expression and cut out all the shapes from one layout. This layout has also been linked to another blog challenge at Cricutters Anonymous.
Supplies: Cardstock and paper-Bazzill, AC Cardstock, DCWV(At Home-umbrella, Flower Shower-Title), Wausau, daisyds; Rubons Anna Griffin and Little Yellow Bicycle; Fiskar punch; Ranger Ink(Tea Dye); Chalk and Ribbon.

I believe a person should live their life to the fullest in the Lord, not merely exist.
The things I love to do are studying the Bible, travelling, photography, scrapbooking, gardening and reading. Since retiring in January 2007 I now have time to enjoy all of these things.
