Doxie pictures
Ok, been wasting way to much time today, looking through my kits. I was going to use a particular kit this morning, but then ended up not being able to, but was in the mood to use a round frame (after seeing the one in the kit I was going to use) so went looking for one. I can't believe I don't have all that many kits with round frames in them! Least not the ones I did look at, and I couldn't just remember any kits that had any either. I know Blushbutter has some pretty round lace frames, but I didn't start out planning on using lace, so kept looking, and looking, and finally gave up, and used this kit (with lace). I wanted green, cause I thought it would go nicely with the pictures, so when I saw this kit, after having looked through way to many of my folders, I just had to use it, even though the round frame was lace.
As you all know, I love lace, I just didn't know how I would like it with my Doxie. I think it turned out ok though, so I guess all is well! LOL While I would usually have leaned towards using the lighter green in this kit, I decided to try the darker one, because I remember Blushbutter has used a darker paper recently, with a lighter picture and I thought it made the picture stand out more, so thought I would follow her example. I'm going to have to remember to do it again, cause I do like it. It may not work as well with darker pictures, but since these photo's had a lot of light in them, they did great!
These are our two doxie's sitting on my chair in the living room looking out the window. They love to sit there and wait for DH to come in. I can usually tell he is coming in, if they are there, cause they start making a ruckus, all happy to see him. This is even before he gets into the house!! When they are watching, he can't sneak in and surprise me that's for sure! *giggle*

If you haven't seen Blushbutters layouts lately, go view her blog here. She is doing a book featuring one of her sons, so has a lot of baby layouts, but if you scroll down you will see a wedding one that uses a dark paper with a light picture. I think it is so pretty...(her baby ones are adorable to!!).
Well here it is, almost noon, I only got one layout done, and I have other things to do around the house so i guess I will have to leave the computer, and get to work! LOL I hope all of you have a great weekend, enjoy the very first national digital scrapbooking day, and don't over spend at all of the sales!!! LOL I don't know if I will even venture out, to look at them or not. Not even sure whats going on this weekend here, so don't know if I will be around to, or not. If I manage to do more layouts I will post them, if not, see ya all next week, thanks so much for your comments and for stopping by!
Awww...how precious!! I can't wait for my little Doxie to do such adorable things. Of course, he's already spoiled rotten!! *giggles*
