a very lazy Saturday
23 August 2008
Spent today doing not much of anything. Which kind of feels good, since we've been going, going, going here all summer. We went to a 'garden' party last night at friends, with kids in tow, got home way too late, and then had to get up way too early to drive dh to the airport for a business trip. So I'm wiped, and so are the kids.. they didn't really appreciate being dragged out of bed at 7am, and once home from the airport, Noah went back to bed until 1pm! I've been kind of sittin' around all day in the heat, doing a little bit of scrapping, and just relaxing. :) I'll probably head to the pool after supper for a swim, in the hopes that it will refresh me and I won't have to retire at 8pm tonight. ;p
Here's a layout I did today while the little guy slept, and dude #1 was at a playdate. So happy to have completed a page, b/c I've been feeling rather mojo-less these past weeks. Getting my DT box from AC kind of helped that along, the new lines are incredible, and I can't decide which one I like best. This layout uses the travel line, with some travel stickers by Martha Stewart thrown in. It's a bad stitch, it really is very straight and lines up nicely irl, but I was way too lazy today to rescan it. *yawn*.
Enjoy the rest of your weekend! Summer's almost over, and I'm kind of depressed about it..

LOVE your page, Mel. I love seeing well balanced two-pagers that flow so nicely. The AC is wonderful. I'm always so impressed by how well you use it. As much as I LOVE my AC stuff, I often struggle with its bold colours and designs. Your work always provides such great inspiration.
don't those photos look so great enlarged - the black and white one is the perfect break to the colour shots - thanks for sharing Melanie!
You are so dang amazing! Love this layout Mel!
I am a bit bummed summer is almost over too. The girls are back on Wed and J a week later. Kindergarten this year :(
Holy cow-what a brilliant layout! Glad you're enjoying the end of your summer-even if it's keeping you busy. We're in back-to-school mode here. :)
