Title: On The Edge
I wonder, when a bird looks over the edge, do they think: "Wow, that's a lot way down. Hope I don't trip or anything. Oh, wait, I can fly! Ha!"
Probably not.
Enjoy!

Photo 365 - Day 265 (Leeloo's First Legion)
Day 265 (March 25th, 2011)
Title: Leeloo's First Legion
I have officially taken pictures of people (err... person really), on purpose, with the sole intention of actually taking a good picture of them! True, it's a picture of a recently-turned 1-year-old, but its a darn cute picture! To date, Ms. Leeloo has been my most photographed "person-based" subject! I would like to thank her parents for making such a cute baby, and hope they continue this level of cuteness in any future endeavors.
As you can see, Ms. Leeloo is enjoying both her first trip to the Legion of Honor museum and her newly discovered ability to walk.
Enjoy!

Photo 365 - Day 207 (Sparkle)
Day 207 (January 26th, 2011)
Title: Sparkle
Secrets of Scrapbooking: Sparkle!
The most dangerous of all embellishments - Sparkle! Of course, by "dangerous", I mean is the one embellishment that you need to be careful of using, because overusing it can take away from the overall idea of your project instead of enhancing it. A sparkle element can be used in just about any aspect of a project (you can add sparkle via ribbon, embellishments, glitter, gel inks with glitter, embossing powders, and so much more), but the real "trick" is to use just enough sparkle to enhance the theme of your project, and not look like a disco-ball (unless, of course, your theme is 'Disco Ball').
Sparkle elements remind me of a product they used to sell years ago called the "BeDazzler" - it was basically a stapler for rhinestones. You could attached rhinestones to just about anything; fabric, shirts, pants, the wall, the cat, anything. In the commercial for the BeDazzler, you would see these kids using it to add approximately 2.8 trillion rhinestones on to a pair of pants before wearing them outside and causing traffic accidents (okay, they didn't cause accidents - but the pants sure looked like an accident). This is one of those examples, where a little sparkle would have gone a lone way.
In these project, a sparkly butterfly was attached to a birthday card. The butterfly had glitter and two rhinestones on it to add a great sparkle element. Even the metal antennae add a somewhat sparkly feel as well (although its more of a metallic element than a sparkly one).
I hope you enjoyed this weeks "Secrets of Scrapbooking", and I'm sure I'll do some more scrap-focused weeks in the future!
Enjoy

Day 206 (January 25th, 2011)
Title: Ink and Stamps
Secrets of Scrapbooking: Ink and Stamps!
Inks and Stamps are probably the most customizable element of your project. While their might be 100's of different papers and 1000's of ribbons, how you draw, stamp and/or color something is limitless. While you might use the same stamp as someone else, you can use a different ink, you can stamp it with different pressure (therefor having the line density be different), and you can colorize the picture. All of these factors your control to customize it to your hearts content! Included when defining "Ink", is of course, one of the most essential elements of any project - the words! A "Thank You" card is a lot less thankful without those words!
Just remember, the pen (and ink, and stamps) is your friend!

Photo 365 - Day 141 (Pin Bird)
Day 141 (November 20th, 2010)
Title: Pin Bird
Ah, yet another strange ornament to show off! Today's ornament is just odd. Its a very old (at least 20 years, perhaps even older!), hand-made bird. Its made from little glass beads and sewing pins (I believe they are stuck into a pin-cushion of some sort). It has no feet, so I'm guessing is supposed to be some sort of hummingbird (yes, I know hummingbirds have feet, but they are usually portrayed without them). Course, it also has no wings, so I'm not sure what's really going on. Either way, its my oldest and yet most loved ornament.
Enjoy!

Photo 365 - Day 83 (Chillin' By The Pool - Otter Style)
Day 83 (September 25th, 2010)
Title: Chillin' By The Pool - Otter Style.
Cutest otter ever, just chillin' by the pool. Sitting in, what can only be considered a otter-version of a Lazy-Boy (Lazy-Ott?), he gave me a look of: Yeah, you *wish* you were cool enough to do this job.
I shot this will a small digital camera, so the quality is a bit less than I would like, but sometimes its better to get a fuzzy shot than no shot at all!
Enjoy!
