FREEBIE Kit-The Fast and the Furiest

2010-05-05T12:50:00.000-07:00

After losing nearly my entire collection of kits earlier this year, I am slowly building up my supplies again. I am finding so many fantastic freebie that are awesome. I have become pickier as to what I download this time, but there are still some great ones on a regular basis.

I came across this one today from Everyday Mom Ideas called The Fast and the Furiest. Fantastic kit for animals, pets, nature. It includes birds and turtles too, not just the typical dog and cat. I decided to give it a whirl this morning and create a fun layout about our silly Golden puppy, Diesel.

Let's Ride {May Build a Kit}

2010-05-02T10:17:00.001-07:00

Jenasis Design just released a new kit called Let's Ride as part of the Build a Kit series. It is a really fun kit that I quickly discovered can be used for many different themes beyond the country theme. I had a lot of fun creating the two pages that I made and I hope that you will find it great as well. The great part about the series is that you can mix and match the mini kits at such a great, low price. All designers use the same color scheme so the kits work with each other.

I loved digging through the older pictures of Gunnar when he was a baby. He is such a cutie!

After my mom's stroke a year and a half ago, I struggled to find time to do much of anything scrapbooking related. Now I am so ready to get back into it. What better motivation than applying for digital scrapbooking creative teams. I applied to Jenasis Design and boy am I so thrilled and excited! She is the perfect fit. She is getting back into designing and gearing up for a big entrance at Stuff to Scrap.

Her first big kit is called "Bliss of Both" and I love it! It is perfect for boys and girls and spring or summer photos. It is so versatile and can be used for just about any kid photo. With Gunnar's crazy, busy personality, this kit is a true winner. This kit is being released today at Stuff to Scrap.

Here are the two layouts that I created using this awesome kit:

She is even offering a free addon to her kit which is just fantastic!

This Blog is Being Resurrected

2010-04-21T11:50:00.000-07:00

As you can see from the last post, I have not posted here for sometime. Oh like a long time. Last year, I didn't do a ton of craft things so it became easier to post on my family blog. However, I have gotten back into digital scrapbooking after a break when my computer completely crashed and literally lost everything and I have some great news coming out tomorrow in the digiworld. I am so excited for the announcement and it has forced me to work on digital scrapbooking which a love. It is pretty therapeutic for me to sit and the computer and create. So to this blog...it is coming to life. I hope to post all of the scrapbooking things that I am working on and throw in whatever else I feel like.

Here are a few of my most recent layouts. Realizing that I needed to replace the majority of my scrapping supplies, I was reminded that there are so many freebies out there. Awesome ones too and not every designer does an awesome job.
"Ouchie" by Misty Cato
"Sunrise Sorbet" by Ellie Lash part of the Easter blog train that is still available now. Hint: With blog trains, I pick and choose what I like. I don't bother with every download.
"Pink Elephants and All That" by Shawna Clingerman
"Little Buddies" by Dani Mogstad
Unfortunately I can't even link up to the awesome kits that I used because they were part of the Sweet Shoppe going, going, gone sale of retiring forever kits.

Year of Memories

2008-11-03T09:21:00.000-08:00

These little 6x6 albums are so incredibly cute! When my son was born, I started taking a picture a month in the exact same spot by the exact same stuffed dog on the date that he was born. I loved seeing the growth month from month through these pictures. This album is a version of what I did. Each page reflects the feeling of the month. The come in both boy and girl versions. A simple ribbon completes the look. The inside title page can be customized with a name. The album is also perfect for any age or any occassion. Just a fun little album to document the year.

All I Want for Christmas...

2008-10-03T15:51:00.000-07:00

I recently created these super cute Christmas Advent Calendars for Etsy and Sugar Snap Blossoms. They are so incredibly cute and I am proud of each one of them. They have the best secret spot for a daily treat or message. A scripture can be used or the lyrics to a Christmas carol. The possibilities are endless. Each calendar is very unique. No two will ever be alike. If you are interested in one, please check out my Etsy shop. More will be listed soon.

I have decided to keep a seperate blog to introduce and talk about my items on Etsy and other things that I do pertaining to making money. I hope that this becomes useful, if not it will be a fun place to talk about the things that I make.
