I hope you all are well. As the summer wraps up, I'll be able to visit my bloggy buddies more! So sorry for being MIA! I'm just trying to keep my head above water at this point!
It's been a fun ride with Scrapbook News and Review and I have been expanding my talents, learning new things, and having fun creating and enjoying my scrappy time! I've been immersed in it!
The May issue of SNR featured the following projects I now can share! They are two of my favorite creations so far.

The above digi layout might just be my most fave one. I enjoyed creating it. I employed lots of "stitching" into the design. Digi has so many options I tell you! I scrapped about my 35th birthday dinner at my favorite Korean restaurant. My mouth is watering just thinking of it right now!
I used Instagram (on my iPhone) for the photo effects. Yes, it's very addicting!
Next up, a card. Lots of stamping goodness here!

I just love how your work pops off a black background. It's so classic!
I stamped my image a few times and embossed, inked, and blinged it all out for your viewing pleasure!
