Another LO using LBD's ThankYou

Kim Broedelet had a great free template on her blog today, and I immediately thought about LBD's latest kit.

Here it is; photo is a formal portrait of our boys, a couple of years ago.  I loved it. The "A" is from an alpha I had on my computer, source is lost.

You just simply cannot go wrong using Lee Benkers Designs Kits.

Digi Freebie

I designed a kit!   All done with brushes and shapes from PSE8.  Not easy, but fascinating.  I was doing a tutorial from Hummies World on using brushes and for the practice, I decided to try and make a digital paper.  One led to another, and another, and another.....

I thought they were so pretty I just had to share.  And what are papers without a few elements.  So I made some to go with the papers.  And it is free!

Just download here and enjoy. (If you downloaded before I made a blog edit, I  moved that bright starburst from the top (talk about distracting!) and made a new QP and replaced the first QP and reuploaded the zip file, so if yours has that bright star come back and get the updated one) This is probably my first AND last kit. LOL

This is a LO I made with it. I did add some cross stitches to that gap.  That WAS where the starburst was.

Loveliest Village on the Plains

We were on Auburn campus two weekends, back-to-back.  Hot, hot, hot.  And NOT the team...:-(

On the second weekend, I brought my camera.  I never get tired of seeing the clock tower.  This building is Samford Hall, but since it is the first building of Auburn University, it is really "Old Main".  No classes there now; administrative offices.

Any photo of Auburn campus usually includes Toomers Corner and the Tree.  Ah.  This is what is left of that tree after a homegrown Alabama terrorist got through with it.  I could not bring myself to take a photo directly of the tree, so I put another one between my camera and those sad branches.  

We spent some time in the new Basketball Arena, looking at the amazing exhibit of Auburn sports since the college was created.  After reading about all the men and women who made Auburn what it is today, I now know that the names of the buildings on campus are not arbitrary; each one is named for one of these Auburn luminaries. When you go to college in a place and pass by these various Halls, you never really think about why they have the names they do.  Glad I had the opportunity to learn and thing or two.  Better late than never.

Thank You by LBD has arrived

Lee Benkers Designs has just put a brand new digi kit into The Boomerang at Hummies World.

It is a beautiful, muted kit.  Just the kind I love to scrap with.  Here are the two layouts I made with the kit.....so far!
