new website

2011-07-27T18:09:00.000-07:00

So a lot has happened since i've last been on here. I created my own website. (free one)
http://www.wix.com/xomckee/ohlovephotography

long name but until business starts taking off then we will upgrade to a real domain name!
So i never thought i would have to take a picture of myself for the website.. but you have to!
so here is what i got...

kinda silly but i liked it!

Also i purchased Posing Guide Collection 2 by BP4U!

amazing stuff there! So i printed off my posing cards and uploaded

them as a comment on their blog. And brooke loved it! So she said she

would feature me in a blog post of hers today!

this is what i took...

I also have some photoshoots coming up this week- 2 on sunday and one on wed!!

I'll update you on pics !!

a very happy girl

2011-07-25T12:44:00.000-07:00

I emailed Sabrina at Sabrina Creations awhile back and asked if I could be a part of her AMAZING CT!
I've always admired her work. Well two days ago she emailed me back saying that she loved my LO in the gallery and that she would like to have me be a part of her CT! That just made my day! So today I downloaded
her products and made 3 pages so far. More to come probably tonight :) It's been like few days since I've even scrapped a page. So here is what I've made so far using Sabrina's Creations products.

our story kit & clean and simple template no8

I recently got the

Inspire Me Cards: Modern Engagement Posing Guide by Design Aglow

So after i resized the images to the paper i had, i had to print them out then cut them out. feels like i am in kidnergarten again.

2011-07-11T23:30:00.000-07:00

Today we took the cats to the vet.. for their yearly rabies vaccination, and I must say it was not as stressful for me as it probably was for them. We found out tater has sideways front fangs.. never new that - but they are all healthy! Photos should be up soon from their visit.
I've spent a lot of my day trying to make a logo for my photography business.. it's a lot harder that it looks..
But while i was doing that I made another layout and freebie for you all <3
I hope you all enjoy!

WINNER WINNER & my nails

2011-07-01T23:11:00.000-07:00

I just started browsing mscraps.com forum.. since i am new to the whole forums thing.. it took me awhile to

figure it all out. I discovered CHALLENGES.. who knew? I just did my first challenge. "about me".

the challenge was to scrap a LO about something you DONT like about yourself.. which was easy for me

since i am a nail biter lol

here is the LO i created for the challenge

you can view it here .

I also was the winner of Lauren Reid's new products <3

Photos are IN!

2011-06-28T17:38:00.000-07:00

We had family photos taken a few weeks ago by travis lickey (aka aptfoto)
They turned out so good!
We spent an hour talking about more than our photos today.. like photoshop..
lightroom and adobe illustrator. Then he said i could come along on his next
photoshoot to learn how to take awesome photos!
That right there just made my year.. but here is a peek of what he did <3

creative block

2011-06-26T20:36:00.000-07:00

its been a struggle for me to be at all creative when it comes to making layouts. I've been browsing galleries for inspiration but nothing helps. Maybe its the lack of photos i have on my computer.. seems like its the same picture i scrap over and over. Or all the stress from work. Hopefully only a few more months of work til i can be a housewife <3.. hoping lol

Heres my latest purchase from Paislee Press

2011-06-21T13:33:00.000-07:00

Today I was just in the mood to scrap. With a limited amount of photos i have- i found some that were perfect. I've been neglecting all the other digital kits i have since I've joined Honey Designs CT, so I thought it was time I went through some kits I havent used. I found some Paislee Press templates and kits I never used. enjoy :)

2011-06-17T10:53:00.000-07:00

I got an email the other day from the creator of Honey Designs - I am now part of her creative team! I'm so overwhelmed, I've never had to use a forum for anything before.. so I'm slowly learning how to use everything.

She just came out with a recent kit called "My super Hero". I'm so in love with it. Perfect for Father's Day. Yesterday was my first LO in a few weeks since my brother came home from Afghanistan. So many pictures to make LO's for!

A new paislee press kit came out tonight and i HAD to have it! Growing up my brother loved chasing and catching fireflies. I cant wait to create layouts with this new kit! I also purchased Wallflowers and Curated quickpage 3.

purchase at oscraps.com!

dst chat

2011-05-25T00:14:00.000-07:00

Tonight was awesome! I got to chat with liz tamanaha creator of Paislee Press on digishoptalk.com. She is one of my favorite designers. There were trivia questions and prizes- i even won one! Learned lots of things, like how to become more of a minimalist, which i aspire to be! The chat lasted about 2 hours, we kept it going after it ended, met some new people that love the same designers i do! Also talked about what kind of cameras everyone used to take their inspiring photographs. Nikons and Canons. Still waiting on getting my Canon T1i soon! Here is the latest layout I made using paislee press kit- the sunday edition, it seems to be my favorite one so far.

friends

2011-05-22T12:06:00.000-07:00

One of my closest friends just graduated from college and got a job about 2 hours away.
Shes moving in a few weeks and last night was her graduation party. Fun times! But sad because
I know i wont see her as often as I would like. But here is a scrap page i made from my birthday from last year.

I made it from paislee press kit - lemonade stand

tuesdays.

2011-05-11T00:17:00.000-07:00

a little busy !

2011-05-05T14:27:00.000-07:00

I've been a little busy here lately and haven't posted anything new.
I found Paislee Press is one of my favorite scrap designers around. Simple and clean designs are my thing. I've purchased a few kits and made some layouts!
I also finished my 2010 summer scrapbook. I ordered it from Walmart just so i could see the quality of their work compared to Shutterfly... I must say that it wasn't up to par at all with print quality. So from now on its Shutterfly all the way!

Sorriso by paislee press & Huntington by paislee press
I made my mothers day mini scrap book with both of these kits.

Finally my latest purchase...

EST. by paislee press and taylor made designs

My next post I'm going to be making my first freebie design.

My most recent purchase!

2011-04-15T23:11:00.000-07:00

Since i started digi scrapping in 2009 i decided it was about time i started my own blog to showcase all of my pages I've designed over time. I hope you enjoy what you see! Thanks!
