FESTIVITIES AROUND THE WORLD!!! WHAT ARE YOU CELEBRATING?
>> Wednesday, November 5, 2008
Today, the United States of America has awakened to a NEW "president elect" and Ms. Vicki has CELEBRATED "Guy Fawkes" in England with carnivals and fireworks and she told me that she and Rob would light a fire in their chimney and roast some marshmallows!!! Mmmmmm .... I've not had roasted marshmallows in about forever and that sure does sound good right about now although eating them can put one into quite a STICKY situation - OH, but what FUN, eh??? LOL!
I live in a VERY small community in the foothills of Northern California so Robert and I were TOTALLY oblivious to the FESTIVITIES taking place all about the US in which there were ALSO fireworks! We did see some of what was happening on television and then today I was listening to the news when I heard last night's outpouring at Times Square equated to that of a Millennium - New Year's celebration! WOW!!! That is HUGE! History has DEFINITELY been made and we have SO much to pass along to our future generations - yet ANOTHER fabulous use for *FESTIVITY*!!! WOO HOO! Vicki has done such a FANTABULOUS job with her part and I am SO enamoured with the SWIRLS of color and her DELIGHTFULLY colorful stars!!!
Of course, and as I promised, I just HAD to do a layout using Vicki's LOVELY creations and it will show you just HOW versatile *FESTIVITY* truly is!!! Tonight you are receiving *FESTIVITY, Part Three* which is FULL of pinks, while Part Two had LOTS of blue and yellow. Where am I going with this? I just bet you know - you can scrap just about ANYTHING for either boys, girls, men or women!!! I TRULY am honored to be working with Vicki and I am learning to relax a bit! So much so, that I've scrapped "3" layouts in less than two days!!! I know that is not much for MOST of you, but for me - WOOO HOOOOOOOOO!!! I just might have an album full when all is said AND done!!! ROFL!!!
hospital, which would have been nearly two hours from us, on our way home from
our SIL's "50th" birthday bash! Sofie, Lohgan's mama, had grandparents
celebrating their "50th" wedding anniversary on the very same day! I tell you,
there is ALWAYS something going on in this GIGANTIC family of ours!!! Never a
DULL moment, for there are ALWAYS photos to scrap!!! LOL!
If you've not already been by Vicki's LOVELY blog to download her AMAZING Part Three, please head on over to do so by clicking on her preview image below and make sure to check back with both of us tomorrow for our coordinating alphas!!! Ahhh YES, what would scrapping be WITHOUT and alpha or two? He, he ...
Until then .... SCRAP HAPPY y'all!!!
MWAH!
Love,
Linda :)
(My apologies for being SO late today - I have had MAJOR issues with my computer
and, well, you know there is just NO fighting against that! Many of you know that
I've desperately needed to burn onto DVD to free up room on my EHD and my
software just likes to put a FREEZE on things!!! Anyhoo, after four reboots, I was
able to get enough off to do what was needed. Keep your fingers crossed for me
that I'll be able to accomplish even MORE tomorrow! THANK YOU for your
patience in awaiting my next portion of *FESTIVITY*! Y'all ROCK ... and then some!)
