Flower Patch {and a little freebie}

True to form, Laurie's Scraps has released another great kit, called Flower Patch. I fell in love with this kit before I even knew it was a kit {Laurie's blog is all decked out with this kit}!! The flowers are so soft and pretty, there is great stitching, and the butterflies are gorgeous!!

Here's the page I did - it's from the calendar I am making. It just screams May to me, so now I'm ready for spring!! Enough of this cold and snow! Bring on the flowers and sunshine!


Here is a look at the entire kit - image is linked to Laurie's Store. Make sure to grab it this week, because it's 30% off!!

And to wish you all a Merry Christmas, here is a little freebie from me. I made my page into a brag book page for your enjoyment! Click to download (and of course leave some love).

I hope you all have a very Merry Christmas!!

U Da Bomb!


Nicole has teamed up with Amber of Stolen Moments Design to put together a fun, grungy, and slightly edgy kit called U Da Bomb, and believe me, it lives up to its name!! There are some great elements - including some fun metal tags, chains, and clips - and great papers for scrapping toddlers, teenagers, and even us oldies!!

Here is the page I did with this kit. I wish I would have had more time to play - I would have liked to do a page for my girls too! Maybe after Christmas! This is my busy, busy, busy boy! The only time he stops is to sleep, or when he's sick! I managed to sneak this picture of his heart-warming smile while he was playing recently. Isn't he the cutest!?!?


Here is a peek at the entire kit - so full of goodness - and the coordinating quick pages. Click to start shopping - they're both 20% off through Monday night!!



Make sure you stop by Nicole's blog and Amber's blog - they each have a cute freebie you won't want to miss out on!

Snow Fever

I thought I might be turning into a winter person, but after this past weekend, I think I changed my mind! LOL! It snowed ALL. DAY. LONG. on Saturday (and more yesterday)!! We got at least 10 inches! And since DH was gone to meetings most of the day, I got to be the one to drag out the snowblower and get it started for the year - ugh!!

If only someone had taken some pictures of me - I could have used them with Nicole's newest kit! Snow Fever is a fun wintery kit, with great colors and some really fun elements. Here is a page I did with this kit. This was 3 years ago (I am soooo behind!), before my last 2 little
munchkins came along!


Here is the entire kit and the coordinating quick pages - click to shop!


Nicole also has some CU-friendly snow templates in the store (she used these to make the snow elements in the kit). If you use coupon code SNOW you can get the coordinating cardstocks for FREE with purchase of the kit, or get the templates or quick-pages for only $1.00 more.

And don't forget the freebie that Nicole has for you on her blog! You don't want to miss it!

Snow Angels and a FREEBIE!!

I cannot believe how COLD it has been here lately!! Even though we had a somewhat mild November, it has just been cold! It has snowed a few times, and that started before Halloween! Man, I am NOT a winter person! LOL!
Laurie's Scraps released a new kit today called Snow Angels, and after working with it, I might just become a winter person so I have a reason to take more - and then scrap - winter pictures!! Here's the page I did with this kit.


The elements in this kit are absolutely beautiful and full of detail! I love the mostly blue color scheme with just a touch of green for that extra pop! Believe me when I say that this kit is a MUST HAVE for any wintery pictures!! Take a look at the entire kit!


You can grab it at Laurie's store for 30% off this week! And make sure you stop by Laurie's blog to get the coordinating alpha as a freebie! You'll be glad you did!

It feels like it's been forever since I offered a freebie, so here's the cluster frame from my LO. Enjoy, and don't forget to leave your love! Preview is linked!

Happy Thanksgiving!

We're heading out of town tomorrow for the Thanksgiving holiday, but before we go, I wanted to share with you a fun Thanksgiving-themed kit from Digi-designs by Nicole. It's called Gobble and has some really fun, unique elements. Here are a couple of pages I did with this kit - a Thanksgiving dinner page, and a page completely unrelated to Thanksgiving, but still lots of fun!

Even though it's a Thanksgiving kit, you can use Gobble for almost any picture! I just love it! Take a look at the entire kit, and coordinating quick pages. Images are linked to Nicole's store.


If you use coupon code TURKEY you can get the kit and the QPs for only $5!! But you have to purchase by Sunday night, so hurry!

I hope you all have a wonderful and safe Thanksgiving!

Touchdown!


I grew up watching BYU football as a kid, and I loved when it was my turn to get to go to a game. I was in absolute heaven when I was a student there and got to attend every home game I wanted to! I haven't been to a game in a really long time, though. Life seems to get busier every year, and we live too far away now to hit a game.

If you love football too, then you'll love Nicole's newest kit, called Touchdown. It's full of fun colors, great football elements, and all the things you'll need to scrap those football memories. Since I haven't been to a game in so long, I didn't have any football specific pictures to scrap. But this kit is versatile enough to scrap just about any pictures you have. Take a look at my page - that's my cool-dude son. Isn't he cute?!?


Have a look at the entire kit, and the coordinating quick pages (I made the one on the bottom right). Images are linked to Nicole's store.


Nicole also made some plain cardstocks to go with this kit, and if you buy the kit this week and use coupon code FOOTBALL, you get them free!


Run on over and grab them today - football season is almost over!! Oh, and GO COUGARS!!

Tis the Season

I cannot believe how fast this year is going - the Holidays will be here in a blink! That means family, food, fun, and a TON of pictures to scrap! I get so overwhelmed when it's time to scrap Christmas photos, because I always have soooo many of them! So I was completely excited when Laurie gave us this adorable kit to play with! Take a look at Tis the Season!

I say this a lot, but this kit is definitely going into my "favorites" folder! There are so many great stickers and ribbons, and the papers are so rich and festive! Here's a page I did with this kit - pictures from 5 years ago! Just more evidence that Christmas pictures are overwhelming for me!

I'm definitely going to use this kit over and over! And I'm sure I'll never run out of pictures! LOL!!

Head over to Laurie's Store to pick up this wonderful kit {it's 30% off this week!}, and make sure you stop by her blog because she's got a great freebie to go along with this kit!

Or maybe you're ready to get Christmas cards out - I know I'd love to get that checked off my list! Laurie is also releasing a set of greeting card templates, so check them out here. They're 30% off this week too! I can't wait to head over to Laurie's gallery to see what you create!

Autumn Love

I love fall!! It is full of so many good things - colorful leaves, cooler temperatures, lots of family time, Holidays, yummy food - it's all good!! If you're anything like me, the camera is starting to come out a little more often, and there are a TON of pictures that need to be scrapped! LOL!

Nicole has released a great new kit called Autumn Love. It's a fall-themed kit, but is absolutely perfect for just about any pictures! This is my favorite kit of all of Nicole's kits - it's really that good! Take a look at two pages I did with it. Believe it or not, these are both pictures of my oldest! She's getting so grown up!

Now take a look at this beautiful kit - so full of wonderful goodies - and the coordinating QPs that go along with it (images linked to Nicole's store)!!


If you buy the kit anytime this week and use coupon code FREEBIE1, you get the quick-pages for FREE!

Maybe you're not a QP person?! Nicole also has a coordinating set of glitters and a set of autumn-themed word arts that you can pick up as well. Just for this week, if you buy the kit and use coupon code FREEBIE2, you can get either the word arts or the glitters for FREE!! There's always something to be thankful for!!! So run off and show your gratitude!

Hey everyone! Hope your week is rolling right along! Mine is moving, but slowly! My youngest has been sick since Saturday, and you know how that goes!! Doesn't leave much time for anything!

Just wanted to let you know about a couple of products Nicole has put into her store, perfect for those of you who, like me, don't seem to have a lot of spare time on your hands!

First up is Template Temptation volume 4 - a set of 6 templates that make getting started so much easier! Take a look at the two pages I have done using two of the templates!

These have turned out to be some of my favorite pages (that happens every time I use Nicole's templates!)!! I love that her templates give me a great outline, and then I can let my creativity take over!

Here is a look at the entire set - click to head to Nicole's store.


Speaking of not enough time...I always intend to be on the ball and get my Christmas cards done nice and early, but for some reason it never happens!! Well now it can! Nicole has a set of 5x7 Christmas cards in her store - just put your photo in, print, and you're all set! And just look how cute these cards are!
