Our New Baby

We have recently welcomed a new member into our family. Since May is National Scrapbook month i decided to introduce him to you through a scrapbook page. This was created using My Digital Studio. I love creating projects and just playing around with this program. Its a lot of fun. Hunter is only 8 weeks old and very playful. We are enjoying his babyhood as much as possible since he will be growing quite large pretty quickly. His mother is a full blooded Siberian Husky and his father is a full blooded German Shepherd. The canines at our house don't out number the humans, yet. Not until Christina goes back to school in the fall anyway. She has been home for about 3 weeks now and we are loving having a more normal family life again. Yay summer vacation!

Getting Back to Normal

Last month I had to have surgery on my right shoulder. For 4 weeks I wasn't even allowed to move it. That sort of put a halt on my stamping for a while. I am pleased to announce that surgery went better than expected & I am on the road to recovery. I still have 2 months before I can start any strengthening exercises, and my range of motion is still limited, but I am having less pain and increased movement every day.

Needless to say, I am anxious to be stamping again. I have already scheduled 2 classes for June and I am so excited. I hope you'll be able to join me for one or both of them!

I am also excited about the changes that are happening at Stampin' Up these days. We are saying goodbye to the retiring items in June and preparing for the new catalog that will be available July 1st. There are exciting changes taking place in the Stampin' Up color palettes, and of course its always exciting to see what the new stamp sets will include.

I will be posting pictures of scrapbook pages and recent cards in the next few days so check back soon.
