Do yourself a favor and watch this!  Hang in there till the end, it’s very moving.  Confirms what I think we all know down deep somewhere - Motherhood is God’s work!

I think you probably have to have facebook to see it, but it’s worth it.  No matter what your religious convictions, there’s great food for thought there!

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!

(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!
