Hybrid Hub: Friends

Last week I told you that I had done another hybrid layout, so here it is: Over at the Pencil Lines blog, I’d found a pretty page that I felt would be great for scraplifting (esp. with the limited supplies I have here in China): I loved the composition, and the embellies it required wouldn’t make the cutting process too arduous. Also, I wanted to create a page that was meaningful for me, so I decided to scrap about some of my friends from a long time ago. Basically, I created the layout on my computer, then resized and transferred everything to several sheets of A4 size paper, printed, cut, and assembled it.

September Thoughts

This is September. Ok. Granted. The end of it. But still September. And we should be walking around in t-shirt, enjoying blue skies (one of the few times a year we get it blue), and be happy that the summer heat has finally cooled down and reached comfortable, enjoyable temperatures. Instead, it’s been raining almost all September and I’ve already begun pulling out my winter sweaters. And I heard the farmers are worried because it’s been so wet that they can’t bring in their corn crops. So, we all must hope for October, and that with it the better weather will return!
