Oh Canada!

This has been an extremely busy week for me! Every day I have been digi-scrapping or doing the hunter/gatherer thing - buying, collecting, downloading, unzipping, sorting, backing-up and ogling my shiny new (or shabby worn) digi-scrap stuff; usually all of the above. :)

I've bought a number of fabulous new kits this week and have been really lucky to have won quite a few awesome things too. And I received a lovely RAK from TheDigiChicks! I haven't had this much fun since iNSBD in early May, lol. However, I haven't had time to actually update my blog. I'll have to go back and post a few on the days they were made (fortunately blogger lets you go back in time to post).

I made this page today with one of my purchases ~ a brand new kit called 'Oh Canada!' kit (by Kimeric Kreations). I also used one of Kim's templates from her brand spanking new 'Paper Lovers 4 (template pack)' (by Kimeric Kreations). Kim has been really helpful in explaining how to use PSD files in PSP to me.

I added all the elements in MyMemories Suite ... it was just easier for me to do it that way, because that's the program I am most comfortable with. I placed the fireworks burst over top of the sprinkler laying there on the grass in the photo (so it can either represent fireworks, or water, haha). This layout was sooooooo tricky for me. There are many, many layers and it took hours, but this is one of my favourite photos of "the boys" when they were young and I love the way this turned out.

My hubby and I are officially on vacation until July 17th. We're planning to do some fun day-trip things while my hubby has this time off. So hopefully I'll have some new photos to scrap very soon. :)
