Daddy & Me

Rianne says, KAYA!


Journaling:
Sing me a song again, Daddy.
Sing me a lullaby.
Wrap me inside your arms, Daddy,
'Though this is not goodbye.
Your songs will live forever in my heart.
When times get rough
The ones I'll most remember
Are your songs of love.

Missing Daddy. August 27, 2009

Materials Used:
Papers and elements from Peppermint Creative free kits Daditude, After Midnight and Candy Fairway.

Techniques Used:
Layering, drop shadows

About ME:
Hi, I'm Rianne, analyst, part-time writer, procrastinating blogger and recent bride, recovering from the recent loss of my father. I realized that I've been scrapbooking in some form or another since high school. Right now I'm dabbling in digital scrapbooking since I spend so much time in front of the computer anyway--and most of our pictures are only in digital form. Still, that doesn't stop me from hoarding! http://casualscrapper.blogspot.com.

2 Little Girls

Took advantage of the long weekend! I found this cute picture of my niece and my apo and Bea's dress has that nice combination of pink and green similar to the kit's colors :) Thanks to Danielle for this terrific kit and to Diane for bringing it to PS.

About ME:
Hi, I'm Rianne, I work as an analyst and part-time as a writer, and I'm finally getting married this year (after "A Very Long Engagement")! I started scrapbooking in some form in college, although I didn't know about acid-free stuff. It wasn't until a couple of years ago when my friend made me a mini-book gift when I left my former office that I got interested because the acid-free papers were really cute. Right now I'm dabbling in digital scrapbooking since I spend so much time in front of the computer anyway--and most of our pictures are only in digital form. Still, that doesn't stop me from hoarding! I hope to become more active here and in the mailing list, all while doing wedding preps!

3 Wishes from the Heart

It's my first time to submit an LO! Good thing there was an extension and I had a little extra time today. I can't help but feel that the LO feels so sophomoric compared the artistic stuff posted here, but this is me, simple and straightforward, with just a little embellishment. And it was really such a reward just to finish it! It was so hard because I hate having my solo picture taken, it was so hard to find one.
