Artwork Extradinaire

Jackson and Ava love to play in my craft room and now that they are getting older, I've taught them to use my craft tools and enjoy much quality time with them creating stuff. Once they discovered my tape rolls, they went to town decorating the closet doors.

I can't wait for Owen and James to come for a visit in February so they can add their creations, too.

Hello, my name is Barb and I'm addicted

to many things. Here's my list:
iPad, iPhone, Motography, Instagram, mobile blogging to name just a few! You can "Follow Me" by tapping on the button to the right, or you can just watch the "real time" Instagram pics, also on the right. Easy prays!

Here's my IG birth certificate.


And here is a snapshot of the favourites chosen by followers like you.

Jackson & Ava and the Fall Fair

Not long ago these children visited Andrews Scenic Acres for some fun with their maternal grandparents. Looks like they had fun!

Welcome Victoria Cameron

Here's a little video of our newest granddaughter, Victoria, born on Sep 22, 2012 at 10:30 pm.

Isn't she beautiful!

On My Way Back to Creativity

At least, I hope so! It's been a very long time since I've had any interest in my hobby of scrapbooking and cardmaking. In recent weeks, there's been a change and it's for the better. As I sit here in my craft room, my beautiful granddaughter, Ava, is sitting next to me at her little table and creating something of her very own with cardstock and stickers. I'm sitting at my computer playing, too!

I downloaded these pictures from Facebook where Ava's mom posted them. Thankfully, her parents post pictures of the kids or I'd never have as many photos as I do. 




And, while I was busy creating, Ava was doing some creating of her own! Take a look.....

Now a movie, hopefully.

If you're reading my blog......

I've switched to Google Chrome as my blog was no longer supported by my old browser. From my standpoint, there seem to be many changes and enhancements and I will have to familiarize myself with them before making my blog "pretty" again.

If you are viewing my blog in Google Chrome, I would like to draw your attention to the upper left corner, just under the blog name (Digi-Dallies). You will see several words as follows: Classic, Flipcard, Magazine, Mosaic, Sidebar,Snapshot and Timeline. Click on each label to see the different views you can have. So far, that's all I know about viewing my blog. As I learn more, I update you on what I know.

I do not know if my blog shows up in Windows - any version - or what. I guess I'll hear from my family if they can't see it anymore.

More later,
Barb

Good News!

Ava likes to stamp!! Here she is with the first two cards she has made, with a little help from Gram Gram. Tomorrow we are going to do more as she seems to like to stamp. Oh happy day! I couldn't wait to tell the world so, no fancy scrapbook page, just the photo.

Sassy Cheryl's Digi Stamps

Thanks to my friend, Sherri, I heard about a new-to-me digi stamp site called Sassy Cheryl's Digis. I found quite a few stamps that I had to have. Here's my first card.

I'm so glad that when I sold most of my stamping stuff that I retained the tools and lots of paper. Now that my interest in cardmaking has returned, I'm ready to go!

School Photos

Here's Owen's and James' school photos.  Aren't they gorgeous little fellows?

 I look at James' picture and see a boy who will try anything and everything, with no thought to scaring the wits out of his parents. Currently James is still in nursery school and is doing well, according to his last report. Well done, James!

When I look at Owen, I am truly amazed that he is reading already. The British system teaches phonetically and I love to hear him recite the alaphabet or sound out words. It is working like a charm and he is already texting his aunt and uncles.

Keep up the good work boys. Grandma is so very proud of you all.

Now all we have to do is get Ava into school and she will join the crowd!
