Big Changes Going On

As You know, if you're a regular to my little blog, I was on to CTs one for Lizandherbabes and one for Amy and Theresa. Sadly, I am no longer going to be working with Amy and Theresa. I didn't leave on bad terms or any thing, they released me because they knew what was on my plate. Both of them were very understanding, and knew I was about to be really busy and, they wanted to make sure I had time to focus on my new venture. They really are the best and they were right the past few days were a little hectic. OK so by now you're probably wondering what the heck it is I'm talking about, why is it I'm so busy. Well I officially crossed over to being a designer! Yes you read right I submitted my application to Scrappers Zone and the have accepted me! I'm so excited, and what even better, I have a kit up in the store. I introduce to you
Chill Out


You can find it in the Scrappers Zone Store HERE. I promise you it's there, I'm having a small problem with the preview. I hope to have it fixed soon. Keep an eye out, I'm going to be holding a CT call, will you be there to answer? Have a great day everyone.
Happy Scrappin!

I'm a BAD blogger!

Ok when I started this blog, I had no idea I would end up on two CTs and still be trying to create my own designs! If some of you didn't know I have an addiction to digiscrappin and therefore I seem to find new reasons to scrap everyday! Working with Theresa and Amy at GDS and Liz at Sweet Digi Scraps has been just what I needed to feed my addiction. They are all awesome designers and I love being on their teams! And Liz has been so helpful with giving my hints on my own kits she really is the best! I have also decided it is time for me to change my "home" gallery. I have been at SBF since April but there have been some changes there that really aren't for me. Don't get me wrong, I'm not leaving I will still post pages in my gallery, it just won't be my "home" anymore. On the home front Gabby starts school in a couple of weeks and we are in the process of trying to get out of summer mode and back into school mode. Yeah, because that's just so easy with a seven year old! HA..HA..HAHAHA! She really is a stubborn one and I have no idea where she gets it from......oh yeah. Anyway, that is why my poor little blog gets no love! It should calm down in a few weeks behind back to one child during the day will really help! But for now it's hit or miss if I post.

Happy Scrappin

How about a Template?


Good morning, can you believe I have been up since 3:30 this morning. I really am tired but can't get back to sleep. Sir Aydan has started going to bed without a pull up and wakes up to go to the bathroom. This is wonderful, however when he wakes me up because he can't get back to sleep is not so wonderful. So, I did two more CT LOs, and because some of you left me such nice comments(yes I read my comments here and 4shared)on yesterdays LOs I've decided to post the new ones. This is the one I did for Lizandherbabes
I found this picture while going through Wylie's Grandmother's old Dancing school pictures. I have no idea who this little girl is but I loved her picture. And well Liz's Vintage Perfection 1kit was perfect for it you can visit her BLOG for more info on the kit.
This is a LO I did for Theresa Borntreger
Look at how sweet Aydan looks! This was made using Theresa's Sweet Jax Page Kit. Everyone always says that kids grow up quick but I never realized how quick. I'm so glad I have an addiction to digi-scrappin to preserve all of my precious memories.
OK I guess I should give you your template at some point in time, so here ya go

You can download it HERE

I'm off to see what i can get done before Wylie needs the computers. Have a great day
Happy Scrappin!

CT layouts and a freebie!

Good morning, some of you may notice a new look here on my blog, well I decided it was time for a small makeover. I was getting a little tired of my old header so I made a new one. All my own design too. So yesterday i was able to get a few LOs done and I would like to share them with you. Look at Gabby's happy little face. Credits Amy Fenner's contribution to School Time GDS August Collab Kit (this Mega Collaboration Kit is awesome and you can get this kit free by purchasing $10 on a single order at anytime during the month of August at GDS how cool is that?) and I also used the Pick-a-Patch Sampler by Amy which is a great add on to the mega kit, and guess what the Pick-a-Patch Sampler, it's only $1.00!Credits-Amy Fenners Grunge Princess right now it's 20% off at GDS I might make a template out of this layout because I really like the way it turned out, so be sure to check back tomorrow.
This one I did with Little Royalty by lizandherbabes which you can find at Sweet Digi Scraps OK one more LO and then I promise you'll get a freebie.

Credits A Child's Joy by lizandherbabes find it at Sweet Digi Scraps. And Liz I have to agree with you, I think this kit was made just for him.
OK now to what you've all been waiting for.......You get......A template. It's actually what I used to do Aydan's LO. So here it is

You can download it HERE
So I hope you have enjoyed my LO's and maybe even inspired by them, but I won't push it. Have a great day and Happy Scrappin!

A new day a new CT

Good morning, I am happy to report that Amy Fenner and Theresa Borntreger have accepted me as part of their CT Yippee Yippee. I got the news yesterday afternoon and I can't tell you how excited I was. They are such great designers and I'm so happy and grateful to be part of the team. I also have to say a special thank you to my family, they have been so supportive of my little ...well maybe not so digiscrap addiction. My son was even nice enough to decide he could stop being stubborn and use the potty like a big boy. Yay no more diapers or pull-ups. WooHoo happy dance!!!!! I've gotta run for now, laundry pile is calling my name.
Have a great day and happy scrappin!

Back and well rested!

Hey everyone, first of all I would like to tell you how much I enjoyed my mini vacation. I think we should all take one every once and a while, no where big just get the family away and enjoy each other. I had a great anniversary, we got to go out to dinner, a nice seafood buffet. And for Gabby's birthday she wanted to spend the day at the beach(this was my mini vacation). We got back a little too late for her cake so we did that part today, she enjoyed it because to her it's an extended birthday. I was able to do a couple of layout, and here is one.

Credits: Angie's Pretty in Pink Kit By Angela Young find the kit at the Digitals store HERE

And as I promised I have something for all you freebie hunters. I have been working on a few new kits for the store (coming soon) and in honor of my vacation, I've thrown a little quick page together for you. This one comes from my Tropical Escape kit


You can find it HERE

Enjoy and have a good one, Happy Scrappin
