You ever just have a day where you hate technology?! Well today that was my day for me. I could not for the life of me get my camcorder raw video footage edited. I had recorded the episode really early this morning, and I spent all day basically fighting with every computer in the house trying to get the video onto the computer and edited and uploaded to youtube. Finally after being in a grump mood all day, had to change file formats with my computer geek's help! and then it worked!!
ALso I dont even want to begin on how much I struggled with my cricut machine. I forgot how to use the cartridges. I'm so gypsy spoiled!!! I didn't remember how to put the paper on, and setting paper size, and all sorts of other things.
I didn't even want to bother with the layers for the gumball machine, so I cut out the black out feature, and everything else in white, and just used my copic markers. ( I really wanted to match the paper colors as well)
So this video was probably the most stubborn that I worked at in a long time!
I decided to make this layout for Momo's Challenge that she has over at her blog, and the challenge was to create a "romance/love" layout. I have so many old pictures that I haven't scrapped, so I decided this was a good chance to get caught up on my scrapbooking.
This was my first attempt at an 8.5x11 scrapbook page and I love it. I got a free Horizontal Scrapbook from Creating Keepsakes and I just had to make something for it.

So Cute!!!! What is her blog? I would love to get into another challenge!!
That is so sweet!
What a way to take constructive criticism! LOL I always accept it but I never want to hear it hahaha. I don't do the videos but I do know some people film with the tripod in front of them, like The Pink Stamper and Emma ?? I love the layout, Ive been thinking of switching to this size too. Good job!
Awesome layout my friend! Very romantic! XOXO Momo
yeah I know that some people do that, I honestly dont know if that will work for me, I will have to try it on my next video. I am kind of sporadic with my videos. I never plan anything until I'm doing it. I often have to stop and find my atg gun or pop dots, because my daughter just loves to take things and use them as toys.
I always welcome CONSTRUCTIVE criticisms it can help me becoming better at doing what I love.
I know this was a first attempt for me at this size, and it's great. I just have to see if I can find some horizontal 8.5x11 page protectors because my scrapbook that creating keepsakes gave me, only has like 10 pages!!
This is fantastic! I love the gumballs and all of the color on the page.
This is a really cute layout! TFS
