What did I learn?



The new challenge at Scrapping Out Loud is up and it's all about what you learned in 2008!! For me 2008 was a year of healing and getting back to a happier place. But I didn't do it alone I had help from my loving family and some really great friends!! So what did I learn from all of that.....well I learned that everyone needs a helping hand sometimes, and it doesn't mean you're weak for asking.
Ok so I am totally loving grey, I've seen it popping up quite a bit in different lines...so why not try some grey cardstock?? I know that this will be a new regular in my cardstock stash!! If you're wondering this is Bazzill Criss Cross texture - Elephant.
I was wondering through Walmart's 'art' supply section when I spotted a pack of blank make your own Stencil sheets....and of course I thought to myself why not make my own sheers (ala Maya Road)!! I used a Cuttlebug die to cut out that lovely little lady, then outlined her using my Zig Photo Signature pen!
Make sure you pop over to Scrapping Out Loud and see what the rest of the DT has created, and I hope you'll play along with our new challenge!

I'm loving Grey too, I got some in a christmas pack of bazzill from Michaels for 50% off(let me tell you I will never use any other card stock after using Bazzill! Whoa that stuff rocks).

Your LO is beautiful, love the pic and that little "lady" is awesome!
