Back to School Blog Hop!!!
Welcome to Milamemories and the ...Back to School Blog Hop! I have some BLOG CANDY!!!
If you've just happened to come across my blog please check out each of the super talented ladies blogs below. There will be some fun prizes along the way, AND there will be some AWESOME ideas!
Now for some fun blog candy!!! I am going to be giving away a brand new stamp set from Sale-A-
How to win, all you have to do is follow the three steps below!!
1) Follow this blog or subscribe via email. See upper left hand corner of blog to do so.
2) Follow me on my youtube channel link here: http://www.youtube.com/user/MilaMemories (I made a special blog hop video showing my projects live and you can see the Blog Candy up close!!)
3) You must leave a comment under this post to win (I would love it if you would tell me what you would love me to do more of on my blog, videos, simple cards, fancy cards, simple layouts, more complex layouts, layouts using my Cricut or Sizzix Big Shot, etc.).
Above is a card I made perfect for a boy or girl!! This is an older paper collection that I was so excited I got to use!! I did some layering, cut out some buses from the paper collection and used a stamp from Stampin Up! for the sentiment!! So easy and quick!!
Here is another card I made that is a little bit more on the elegant and softer side. Not so grunged up as the one above this one!! This card is perfect for your female teen or someone going off to college or graduate school!! I used all Stampin Up! cardstock, some designer series paper, cherry cobbler seam binding and my most favorite brand new stamp set that I am giving away to one lucky follower, the Bliss Sale-A-Bration stamp set from this past year. Of course, you know I had to use some shimmer paint and rhinestones!! I stamped the butterflies with the Cherry Cobbler ink and then cut them out and put shimmer paint all over them.
The last project I made was this altered frame using Graphic 45 Steampunk papers! It was so much fun altering this frame!! I thought it would be the perfect gift for someone going away for college!! Or a teen that is starting the new school year, just to say "Good Luck, this year!". I used some prima flowers, and lace. I also die cut a dress form using my Sizzix Big Shot, I used Claudine Helmuth Matte and Gloss Medium to cover all of the paper to protect it from dust and dirt, etc. Wendy at http://cricutyourclassroom.com

New Projects!!!
I have some new projects coming this week!! Sorry i have been M.I.A, I have had a few emails asking if everything is alright, because i haven't put up videos in a few weeks. Everything is fine, we have been pretty busy in the Mila household. We went to Disney in May, so i was preparing for that, then my son and i kept getting sick and we had been giving it back and forth to each other. Things have been calming down now and i should have a few videos up on my blog and youtube channel in the next few days.
On a side note, I pre-ordered the Kelly Moore B-Hobo Camera bag in Walnut and she said that it should be shipping out by the end of this week!!! So, I am so super excited about that and am very impatiently waiting LOL.
I am starting to feel more comfortable with my Sony A55, and am saving up for a new telephoto lens which i can hopefully get next month. I wanted to share some reviews on a few books that I have been reading about photography. The first book that i had read is by Scott Kelby and it is called The Digital Photography Book, Volume 1. You guys it is an amazing book, i literally could not put it down and read it in about two days. This is a book that i keep in my bag when i shoot pics, it has so many amazing tips and suggestions. In the book it's like you are out on a shoot with him and he answers all of your questions that you have. Thanks to him, I learned how to shoot a portrait using a de-focusing technique (as well as many other techniques, thank you so much Scott!!). Seriously, I had spent 4 days trying to get this technique down and just couldn't figure it out. Then finally, i received the books from Barnes and Noble.com and started reading!! Anyone who is starting out in photography NEEDS to get this book! He literally goes through all different kinds of photo situations that you would be in and basically tells you how best to shoot in what situation. I really felt like i was in a class or something, can you tell i loved the book. LOL Anxiously waiting for the other volumes to come in the mail!!
Right now, I am currently reading a photography book by Brian Peterson called Understanding Exposure, this is really a great informative book as well and i will give my full review and thoughts when I am finished reading it. I am learning a lot with that book, Bryan goes more into detail about the why and definitions.
All right, have to put my muncky to bed and make a video :) Hope everyone is enjoying there summer!!
Let me know if you have any questions on any of the books or Kelly Moore Camera bag that I mentioned.
Oh, one more thing, I am on twitter now, so look me up Milamemories (surprised LOL).
Hugs,
Mila
