I just wanted to hop in for a few and thank Chris for this wonderful blog!
While on a trip to Kentucky last month, I went on a school trip to the zoo with my grandson’s class. We stopped and had lunch at the local park. I spotted this gorgeous Dogwood tree and had to grab the camera. With the rainy day in Tennessee, I decided to take advantage and catch up on a little scrapping. Here’s the layout I came up with:
I used Chris’s file: CD00286- Fancy Swirly Accents 1 for the vine.
The dogwood flower was my own creation. 🙂 I hope you enjoy seeing this layout as much as I did making it.
Enjoy!

Creative Team gets a new home!

May 15, 2008 By Chris Durnan

Have you seen it?? Well follow this link and visit my wonderful team. Each creative team member has acces to the Creativity Blog for Visual Designs by Chris and now can post their “recipes” for their projects and anything they’d like. So check it out. This is an answer to the numerous emails asking me which paper? how did they do that? What did they do it with and what’s their story for their projects. So don’t hesitate. Two Members have already posted!! You’ll see some of their projects here, but more details there.
HERE IS THE LINK.

****
On to life… I leave town next week and one of my Creative Team Members has agreed to be my guest blogger here to keep you busy and enjoying. (My favorite thing to do “enjoy”) .. You’ll have to guess which one, but I will say she is definitely looking forward to summer vacation and time to work on her projects. A very talented lady. More to come.

And because I am leaving town I am swamped with to dos and part of that is to take care of the “puppy”, go to a doc appt, visit my sons school for his “last day” and get a ton and a ton and a ton done. So my apologies if my posts are short and sweet , but I am sooooo ready to head to Minnesota & Wisconsin. Can’t wait. Spend time with the hubby and the bambino. Visit the in-law side of the family and see my Dad. My Dad is preparing for fishing extravaganza. I am preparing for reading extravaganze! Woohoo!! and also that means I have to go the library. Darn it. One more thing to add to the list. I have no idea what to pack. I have heard it’s cold, it’s kinda cold, it’s sweater weather, it’s jacket weather…. I can only take one bag! Sooo.. I am off to look for the weather website.
Have a wonderful day!!
Don’t forget to check out the site. for the creative team. And thanks to my creative team members. They are without a doubt awesome!!
Enjoy!

Hello Everyone!

May 15, 2008 By Chris Durnan

I am Vicki and I am, of course, On Chris’s Creative Team. Just wanted to pop on here and say “hi” and I will be back. I just finished my grandson’s first 8 months of life album (he’s now 9 months old) and have only a few pages left for these next couple of months until his birthday. I am almost out of room in this album, so I hope we don’t have any major happenings. Chandler is 9 months old and talks. He says Mama, Dada, Brother and BaBa which means “food” in general. He likes his food more than his milk. He walks – not alone, but all around the furniture. He’s early in everything! What a joy and a challenge.

Here’s a picture of one of my Favorite Projects using one of Chris’s files:

Happy Day Everyone,

Vicki
