Bikes and big trucks

We went to the Monster Trucks on the weekend. The kids had a blast and I enjoyed trying to get that perfect photo. :)I thought I had captured some really good shots but my critics were the kids and I think they think everything is "cool". I went through tonight with a much more critical eye and I think I have some ok shots but nothing really,really great. The day was fun and in the end that is all that matters.

The extreme bikes were fun to watch. The boys can't wait to try "jumping" their (peddle)bikes this summer. I lucked out and caught the tough truck just before it flipper over. Take a look and tell me what you think.

Sheryl, you got some great shots. You could do some cool stuff to these shots in Lightroom or Photoshop.

I love the picture of Kayne just enjoying the day. I knew I didn't want this layout to have a "little boy" feel to it but I didn't know what direction to go either. I definitely don't mind stepping out of my comfort zone so I tried some of Wilna's paint it mentality. I am not sure yet if I like the layout but I don't hate the results so I guess that is good. I will try painting again on future layouts as I did have fun creating this one. The chipboard letters have crackle paint,perfect pearls ink and glossy accents.

The Fall Issue of Canadian Scrapbooker is out!!!! It's on the shelves....run don't walk to get your copy.  I am so excited to be featured  in the Passport to Creativity!!! What an honour.I freaked to put it mildly when I opened that email. :) :)  These are the 3 LO's that I created for the issue. I stressed over my Bio and felt a little "nerdy" answering my interview questions, but when it's all said and done I am very proud of how it all looks and reads. I want to send a big SHOUT OUT to my friend Karen of KMP Photography for doing my head shots and scraproom photos too. Bird Call was created with Bo Bunny and some vintage goodies. I used my hole punch distress technique to finish it off. I wish I could Freeze Time consists of Graphic 45 and some yummy Tim Holz items. Toes is my last page. It has Basic Grey and my all time favorite photo of 2009. Now who else was is this magazine????? How about checking out my friend Kate ...she was featured in Pas...
