2012 Artisan Finalist Blog Tour - Day 5

Hi stampers!  It's day 5 of our Artisan Finalist blog hop!  Halfway there!  This is sure taking a lot less time than it did to actually come up with and make the projects, ha!  You have probably just come from Tara's blog where you got to see her fabulous project!  Don't worry if you didn't though, because we make a big loop and you can find the whole list at the bottom of this post!

I have another scrapbook page today!  I wanted to share this one today because it features my awesome hubby....who let me buy a macbook yesterday:-)  I shouldn't say let me but actually encouraged me to, lol!  And he graciously said that if for some reason I don't like it, he'll take it off my hands, lol!  Big of him, no?  He's been talking about it for a while now and I finally said I'd consider it this week after playing around with MDS2 (which, OMG is SOOOO much faster on a mac, holy cow) and dealing with my old laptop being slow and locking up and what not.  So this page has a couple of pictures of him on our trip to Vegas last year.  He's so photogenic....hehe!  Too bad you can't see how HUGE that margarita is in the one picture!  He's about six feet tall and it was down past his knees!  Silly boy!

This is my one completely digital page.  There are no traditional elements on it.  I wanted to use the hexagons since they are very "in" right now and wanted to keep it simple too so I could focus on his cute smile!  I also love those candid fames and downloaded them (and I can't even tell you how many other downloads, lol) just for this project and the Artisan contest!    But I think making them look like polaroids is totally cute!  I miss polaroids!  They remind me of all the old pictures my granny used to take:-)  It's hard to see in the picture but the background paper is actually DSP, it's tiny dots.

Now it's time to head on over to Connie's blog if you already haven't been there since we're back to the start!  And just in case you get lost or started in the middle, here is the whole list.  Make sure you check them all out and come back again for the remaining 5 days!
