Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!

2010-12-18T16:02:00.000-08:00

Just wanted to wish everyone a very Merry Christmas and/or Happy Holidays!

Haven't been around too much, but I do have some new products over at my iScrapbook store. I am sad to say that Deco-Pages has closed down so the only place I am selling at now is at iScrapbook.

The last half of year has flown by. It has been a hard one for us, but we are hoping for new and exciting happenings come next year.....I hope! Hope you are all doing well...take care and good luck in 2011.

Here's two layouts that I have done: Apple Orchard Fall Visit - October 3, 2010

Almost Autumn by Connie Prince QP

Halloween 2010 - Toil and Trouble by Just So Scrappy Qp

OMG it's July!!!!!!! and a freebie, too!

Yep, it's July and I am finally updating this blog of mine! How has everyone been? What's been going on? Always busy here with one thing or another. Last month my oldest finished up with her Club Volleyball season only to start Summer League with her high school team. That concluded on Thursday and this Monday she went away to her first Volleyball Camp which will be over on Friday (her 16th birthday!). Yes, I must say that she loves Volleyball and want to continue it when she goes to college! :) We had fun going up to the beach for a week in June, too. We were able to see some of our extended family and get some much needed rest and cooler temps. We are looking forward to heading up to the cabin next month to visit with my Sister and her family.....and then it will be back to school for the girls.

I haven't been designing or scrapping too much - I would have to place the blame on those darn Facebook games - lol. I go there to check a few things and before I know it, it has sucked me in - but it has also been nice seeing what old friends and family are up to a bit more.

If you haven't stopped by Deco-pages.com in a while, you should head on over and check it out - there's a daily download kit along with a bunch of fun challenges. I host the Template challenge each month (go here for further details) and If you complete the challenge then you will receive this lovely quick page posting prize. Here's this month's template: You can download it HERE

Thanks for stopping by - hope you take part in my challenge!

Time for the March Template Challenge

Oops...is it really the middle of March now???? Yesterday I had to mow and edge the front lawn, which means that warmer weather will soon be here! :) This last month Mom and I have been doing the Amazing Digi-Scrapping Race and having a lot of fun creating layouts for the various challenges - one more week and 2 layouts to go until this one is over.
Are you ready for a new template challenge? Here's a layout I did with this month's template and my kit that will be in the store the 1st of April - My Sister, My Friend. Here's the posting prize you will receive at the end of the month if you complete the challenge (See here for further details).Here's Template #41: Link has been removed - sorry, no longer available!

Happy February! Hope all is well where you live......two more month's until Spring!!!!! I can't wait - so tired of all the cold weather. Mom and I signed up to do The Amazing Digi-Scrapping Race which starts this Sunday. I am looking forward to participating in the challenges, picking up the great prizes and also working on some layouts! Check back here to see some of our layouts that we have done.
I have a new kit over in my store at Deco-Pages - it's called Candid Camera.Would you like to take a look at a couple layouts using my new template for February????? Here's two of them. Mom made this one using my Oxford Romance Kit. I did this one using this month's Club Deco kit, called Cherry Blossom Romance which will be released in my store the beginning of March. If you create a layout using my template and post it in the gallery, you can receive this neat Cherry Blossom Love add-on. Head over to the forum for more details.

Hi again! Last week was definitely a wet one for us here in Southern California...I sure was glad when the sun came back this weekend. We are not use to having so much rain all at once here in the desert - it's suppose to be dry always - lol! I don't know about you but I am really looking forward to winter being over and Spring replacing it!!!!!

At least this year so far I have been able to get back to designing a bit more. I have a new Paper pack: and Embellishment pack: over at my iScrapbook store - I loved working with these colors and had fun with it. What do you think of it? If you'd like to take a closer look - head over to my store to take a look (HERE). I plan on making a quick page album next, but I first wanted to share a quick page with you - hope you will enjoy it. Link removed - sorry, no longer available!

Also, Robbi1 (Mom) has created a second free quick page using these products and you can go and pick it up on her blog - don't forget to leave her some love, please! Robbi1's Blog. Gotta run, but don't forget to come back next week - February will be here and so will my next template challenge!

Black Velvet Quick Page Freebie

2010-01-17T13:21:00.000-08:00

I want to say thank you to all of you who were so thoughtful to leave a message for me regarding my template. I was so surprised to receive so many of them. Thank you! When I first started blogging I always looked forward to reading the messages I received from everyone - they made my day. Over the years it seemed that less and less people were doing this, kind of taking the fun out of doing my blog. So, to see all the kind words, it meant the world to me. Who-hoo!

I can't believe that it is already January 17th. My oldest has already had two Club Volleyball tournaments and numerous Varsity Basketball games, started her 2nd semester of school and is officially ready to get her learner's permit - oh boy! My youngest is just about ready to start selling girl scout cookies and I have been trying to get back into designing and doing more layouts. I did this one for a challenge over at Digi Scrap Garden - click on layout for credit. I put a new kit in my store over at Deco-Pages...it is called, Black Velvet. Here is a quick page that I made to share with you.

Happy 2010!!!!!!! New Template Freebie!

Hi-Hi! Happy New Year!!!! Once again it's been quite awhile since I have posted on this little blog of mine, but here I am now! The last two and half months have been busy, busy, busy! Celebrated Halloween, my 16th Wedding Anniversary, my birthday, my computer crashing and being without one for two weeks, Thanksgiving and Christmas! Here's a layout I did of my youngest visiting Santa (click photo for credits) Oh, and I did accomplish my goal of completing Project 365 - not only the photos but the layouts to go with them! That was definitely a challenge, but I stuck with it and finished it. This next year I will go a little more simple and do Project 12 instead! LOL! Whew, I am ready for the days to slow down a little bit!
I have a new free template ready for this month's template challenge over at Deco-Pages (go here for further information and to see the great Add-On Kit Posting Prize).
sorry, no longer available - link removed!
I look forward to hearing your thought on this template and hope you will join in the challenge! Enjoy!
