Here is another page from the stamping and scrapbooking retreat I attended in April.  I saw a similar layout and decided to copy it using 118108 My Digital Studio software.  This layout allows me to get eight photographs on this page, but there is some separation of the photographs by their placement and putting frames around them. 

My favorite photograph is the bottom center one of the crosses. My thanks to Autumn for telling me to take this photograph.  She has been at this retreat center before and knew where to stand to get both crosses and the lake in one photo.

Flower gardening is another passion of mine besides papercrafting.  I like to take pictures of my favorite flowers and then scrapbook them using 118108 My Digital Studio software.  On this page, I wanted to show the different stages of the orange poppies at our cabin.  We have an entire flower bed filled with them, which is stunning when they are all blooming.  On Saturday, only one flower was in bloom, one was ready to bloom and the rest were just taking their time to bloom. 

A feature of My Digital Studio that I used on this page, is I "filled" the tag punch with Designer Series Paper.  I double-clicked on the tag punch and was able to move the Designer Series paper to the portion that I wanted to show in my tag punch.  So cool!!!

I saw this layout on Pinterest last night and had to copy it.  This is a layout that I can see myself using over and over again, by changing the colors and the photograph.  This is my sister, Jan, who taught me how to rubber stamp about 20 years ago.  Who knew how that teddy bear stamp, glossy white cardstock, black ink pad and markers would change my life.  She lives in San Diego, California.  And this is my brother, Pete, who owns Great Harvest Bakery in Great Falls, Montana.  Any time you are in Great Falls, stop by the Bakery and tell him you know me.

An awesome feature in the 118108 My Digital Studio software, is how quickly I can change the color of these letters.  I click one letter, then hold the "Ctrl" key and click the other letters I want the same color.  Then I select which color I want.  Super fast, which is what I like when scrapbooking.

I bet Jan and Pete don't even know they were wearing Rich Razzleberry and Always Artichoke Stampin' Up! colors.  I love how easy it was to match the colors on the scrapbook page with the colors they were wearing.

The majority of my scrapbooking is my grandgirls, holidays and family events.  To prove that I do have a life outside of my family, (tee hee) I decided to start working on my pages from a weekend retreat I went on with one of my downline, Autumn.

The first page I've done is the packing and the drive to the retreat center.  I love taking short road trips with friends because it is an adventure before the weekend adventure!  Here is page one of our adventure.  I like doing chronological scrapbooking for these types of pictures.  More pages will be coming as I create them, so stay tuned.
