Q is for Quarter.
So on Sundays my friend Edie and I upload our photo with the previously agreed upon theme to our Sunday Shutterbugs blog. We’ve been going alphabetically and this week it’s Q. Lemme tell ya, there are not a lot of photogenic items that begin with Q. ha ha! But we settled on quarter, which could be interpreted several ways. Here’s my photo:
What do you think?
Edie’s having computer issues so hers isn’t there yet but should be by Wednesday morning.
Wanna join us? If you can think of a “quarter” photo, come share it with us and link up your photo so we can see it over on the blog here.

Another photo challenge with my friend Edie. We couldn’t post last week because Edie was having trouble so this week we are doing 2 photos, 1 for O and 1 for P.
Our O word this week (last week) is OPEN and coicidentally Edie and I both took a photo of a flower! We don’t discuss what we’ll be photographing ahead of time.
Our P word this week is PARK. I love Edie’s photo for this challenge.
Head over to the Sunday Shutterbugs blog here for the O’s and here for the P’s and share your photo with us this week!

I mentioned the other day that Edie and I doubled up on our photos this week over at Sunday Shutterbugs. And I showed you my nature photo. Here’s my take on the noun assignment.
I sort of had a hard time with it, even though it sounds pretty easy. But with “person, place, or thing” the possibilites are endless! ha ha So after a rain storm I went outside and looked around because everything always looks more interesting after a rain, I think. And this is what I saw:
Nature.
Edie and I skipped a week on our photo blog and this week we’re doubling up and doing two photos with the letter N…. Nature and Noun. I’m still working on my noun but……
Here’s my NATURE photo:
Come over and share your photos with us at the Sunday Shutterbugs blog. As always, Edie’s is awesome!

One day back in May I asked my daughter to let me take a nice photo of her new hair highlights. She is 10 years old, and this is what I got when we went out into the yard and began.
Picture me the entire time being totally frustrated and yelling, “Please just give me ONE GOOD SHOT! That’s all I ask! JUST ONE!” ha ha
And this is what I got:
I kinda like it. It really represents who she is right now, always flashing the peace sign and saying “peace out” instead of “goodbye” to someone. She cracks me up. But I swear to you I grew a couple of new gray hairs that day.
Then a few days later on Mother’s Day I asked my husband to take a photo of me with my daughter. And here’s what I ended up with after EVEN MORE of those goofy face photos.
ONE photo I really like.
And this is what I did with it:
It was a challenge over at Practical Scrappers that week to use transparency in some way, and that whole black swirly frame above is a transparency. I just put it down over my photo. I used a rub-on from Imaginisce (I think) on top of the transparency and I also stamped the month and year on top of the transparency. And because I can’t stand to finish a page without adding something sparkly to it I also added some dark pink rhinestones on there too, which you can’t see very well in the above photo. Hopefully you can see them if you look closely enough!

This week Edie picked KISS for our theme on our photography site Sunday Shutterbugs.
Please click on over here to see our photos and share yours if you like! Edie used a timer for hers and it’s awesome (as usual!)
Last week our theme was JAGGED. I swear, that Edie picks the hardest words and really makes me work for my photos, really makes me use my thinking cap! Here are a couple of my photos from last week that didn’t make the cut.
You can see which one I ultimately decided to go with here.

Today my photos and Edie’s photos are up on the Sunday Shutterbugs blog. We doubled up this week because we missed last week. I just couldn’t get it together last week. Today we did INCANDESCENT for “I” and JUMP for “J”. Wanna play along? Go here to see our “I” photo and show us yours. And go here to see our “J” photos and leave a link to your photo. We love to see what others come up with too!

I’ve been busy this week and totally forgot to remind you about my Sunday Shutterbugs post with Edie on Sunday. This week our theme is INDIVIDUAL. I think Edie was thinking individual person and I kind of took a different route with my photo. Click here to go check out our photos (and share yours this weekend perhaps?) I love to look at other people’s take on our themes!
I also forgot to show you my latest design team project for Practical Scrappers. (I am thrilled to be chosen to stay on for another term with the new design team!) Our product to use this week is buttons. Here’s what I did:
I used the BoBunny “Love Bandit” line that I won a few months back from Rita’s blog. Thanks again Rita!
Here’s what the story says: (and just so ya know, I swear I don’t usually curse in my scrapbooks!)
Ya know how when you get married, how you save the top portion of your wedding cake and put it in the freezer to eat on your 1st anniversary? Well, here’s our cake, all wrapped up in aluminum foil….where it sat in our freezer in the basement…..for 9 years! Yes, you read that right. Apparently we’re dumbasses. I guess I didn’t realize that Ken had put it in the freezer downstairs, and we never use it so I never looked in it. Then in December 2009 our regular fridge died on us, and we started using the basement one. That’s when I noticed it. Not that it would have mattered…I can barely remember what happened last month and I was supposed to remember to eat that cake a whole year later on our anniversary? April 2010
You can see all the projects here (lots of talent here!) or submit one of your own until Saturday at 5 p.m.
It’s Monday…
And yesterday Edie and I uploaded our photos to the Sunday Shutterbugs site. This week our theme is HORSE, and man did I have a HARD time finding one to take a photo of!
Here are a couple I took that didn’t make the final cut.
Isn’t he beautiful? He came over to the fence when we pulled off the side of the road as if to say hello to us.
And this one was pretty too but was pretty busy eating.
And he had a friend with him who was much too busy eating to be bothered with even looking up at me!
Okay, so for the BEST photo I took go on over to Shutterbugs here and check it out and see Edie’s photo (which I love as usual) and show us yours!
