We’ve been really busy this week - we hosted a Girl Scout Troop from Michigan that was passing thru on their way to Disney World:

Then the Grandparents and a cousin are here this week, so we’re doing all the touristy stuff…

Mining for Gems at the Lost Sea:

(YES, Twila, we’ll take you there if you want! ) It’s cool, a cave you get a boat ride in, then they have a great little shopping village and for 5 bucks the kids can use the sluice to ‘find’ gems in a bag of dirt!

BUT… despite it all… DH made you guys a Quick Tip Tuesday over at Scrappers’ Workshop!!

Go take a look, and you’ll know why I keep that guy around!!

Happy Scrapping!

Alright, I’ll send a lovely sparkle brush to anyone who can tell me what musical Brush Up Your Shakespeare is from! (hint: one of our daughters gets her name from this show!)

I have a new brush set in the store at Scrappers’ Workshop (no, we’re not officially ‘open’, but you all can sneak in and poke around!)

and I had fun playing with them today:

AND - I remembered a great tip y’all might not know!

Now I’m sure most of you know that in PS and PSE, when you have your brush tool selected, you can hit the [ and ] keys to make your brush larger or smaller.  But did you know that if you hold down the SHIFT key too, you can make your brush softer or harder?

SHIFT+[ will make your brush softer or fuzzier

SHIFT +] will make your brush harder or sharper

Now THERE’s a quick tip you can really use!  We have 49 more of them in our PS Tips and Tricks class at Scrappers’ Workshop.com.  Be sure to click on BLOG and sign up for our email newsletter we can keep you up to date as we schedule classes and events!

Happy Scrapping!

Our vacation at Myrtle Beach is nearly over, but we’re having a blast!

Doing all the touristy things, and stuff…

Staying at Stan’s cousin’s AMAZING penthouse condo…

and even getting to scrap with my friend Amanda Thorderson’s Song of Hope brag book and kit!

We’ll be back soon!  See ya then!

I’m guest blogger today on the Thrifty Mommy site - go check it out!  Karen and Kelly keep you up to date on all the best ways to stay thrifty - dig back thru their archives for all kinds of neat stuff.  They’ll link you to Kim Komando’s free downloads as well as lots of other great sites and posts.  Don’t forget to read MY post (although you are already converts…) and click on the link to the slide show of my layouts.  I don’t post them in galleries or on groups that often, so here’s your chance to see my work!

Well, off to the beach!  We’re in Myrtle Beach, the water is 85F, and we have a brand new boogie board that needs breaking in!

Hopefully I’ll have some great photos to scrap for you later!
