E's First Movie - "Copper" by Diane M. Dresback (Day 1)

The other day one of my friends posted a casting call on her Facebook, and they were looking for a little girl 6-9 years old, blonde, brunette, or red head. I debated taking E, and in the end, decided, what the heck . . . why not. If nothing else it would be a fun night out together. The part was for a short film (only a 15 or so page script).

Last Monday night, we drove downtown Phoenix, and E auditioned. I felt nervous because we had never done anything like this before, and because lots of the girls who were there seemed older than E and also more experienced. Still, we were there, so we just stayed. E was really excited. She did okay in her reading of the lines -- but apparently she did better than I imagined because she got the part. She practiced her lines throughout the week, and then today, my cute hubby took her to film her first scene.

Here she is practicing her lines before her scene was shot. I am so thankful that she can read because I think that really helped her to be able to suceed with this opportunity.


Here are a couple more shots while filming the first scene she is in . . .

E and the camera

I think she had lots of fun! She got home kind of late and was pretty tired when she got home. I think she learned some things too. I am glad she is participating in this project. Only a couple more scenes for her to have shot -- one tomorrow and one Monday . . .

I'm so proud of her! And seriously, it's been a year since Baby E was born? I still can't get over that.

HANNA PREVIEW: For the Soul

This set is totally cool! I have not seen anything like it! I think it is perfect for a sympathy card, a thinking of you, a little hand out at church, maybe even for cards at Easter (thinking ahead here) etc. It is so CUTE! Hanna looks so angelic and well, to be completely honest, reminds me of my little sister (not sure why). I used the sketch at Card Positioning Systems (#83) for the layout. I was going for a "touched by an angel" look on the main image (and I think I kind of created that.) I used vellum to overlay the image to give it that glossy fuzz (soft focus). Stamps : For the Soul (Hanna Stamps), "God Bless" sentiment by American Art Stamp Paper: Lily Kate - Basic Grey, Neenah Solar White, SU vellum card stock, SU Whisper White Ink : Onyx Black Versafine Accessories : Sheer 5/8th Inch organdy ribbon, Nestabilities (Circle and scalloped circle), sewing machine, white thread, circle of plastic canvas, copic markers, white brads, paper piercing ...

Pinecone Balls Revisited

So lately I have been noticing that a lot of the traffic to my blog has been to the tutorial on how to make the pinecone balls that I put together about a year ago. SO, due to the increase in popularity, I thought I would get rid of some of my extra supplies on hand (because I made some already this year again and my fingers are sore enough) -- I have decided to giveaway a kit that contains enough supplies to make three balls. It features some great papers and ribbon and will be similar to the ones you may have seen at orientaltrading.com . I know it is not a huge giveaway, but I thought it would be fun! To enter, tell me what your favorite Christmas tradition is in the comments section of this post. I will draw a random winner on December 1st , so enter today!!! UPDATED: We have a WINNER -- Post number 44 was chosen using the random number generator and the winner is *drum roll please* Rosella said... WOW! I'd love to make some of these beautiful pinecones!
