McMenamins Edgefield - Death Cab For Cutie Plays Transatlanticism

It has been a long time since I have blogged. I got distracted with all kinds of things, one of which was I could not decide if I wanted to pay blogger to host more pictures here on my blog. I love taking lots of pictures and was trying to decide if I wanted to keep blogging or just let it go. In the end, I decided I miss my blog. It is fun for me to go back and read through and see all of the things I have created/done. SO, I'm back!! (said in my most creeper voice).

This weekend I got to go see Death Cab for Cutie. I had not been to a show in awhile and it was so fun to relax and dance and sing and just be not a mommy for a few minutes. Sometimes I get so overwhelmed with all the mommy chores I have to do that I forget who I am. They played the entire Transatlanticism album (they are only doing this in two venues so it was pretty sweet) and then they played a few other songs which they called "part II." I was impressed with how much they sounded exactly like they do on the album when performing live. Amazing live show! A band called Deep Sea Diver opened for them. They had a good sound and I liked them a lot. I had a really good night!

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).
