Taking a Break

You may have noticed that I haven't been posting for a while. And you may have also noticed that I am no longer CTing for Digi-designs by Nicole and Laurie's Scraps. I have decided to take a break from scrapping for a while. My babies are getting older, and I find that I don't have near as much time to get things done, let alone scrapping! So, as hard as it has been, I have let go of this hobby for now. I hope to get back some day, as it is such a great creative outlet for me.

Thank you to all of you who have followed me. It has been an honor!

Don't Forget!

Just a quick reminder about Laurie's birthday celebration. In addition to great discounts, there are major prizes to be won! Hurry before it's too late! And make sure you stop by the Laurie's Scraps CT Blog and enter to win your favorite of Laurie's kits!

Hit the Books

I'm a little late with this one, but butter late than never, right?!?! I've got a great new kit to show you today, and it's just in time for all those back to school photos. That first day back is such a bittersweet day, so make sure to capture it while it's fresh! Before I show you the kit, I want to show you what I was able to do with it. This is my oldest son - 3rd grade!! {I also have a 5th grader - yikes!!}

Now here is the kit. We got to vote on color schemes for this one, and it just so happens that Nicole went with my favorite! I love the elements, the colors, the flairs. There is just so much good stuff in here!

There are coordinating quick pages, worn cardstocks, and flairs too. Nicole has made a bundle, so you can get everything for the cost of the kit and quick pages! Awesome deal! You won't want to miss out on those extras! This week only, if you buy just the kit, you can get the worn cardstocks or the flairs when you use coupon code HTBAddOn. So, what are you waiting for??

Laurie's Scraps Birthday Celebration

It's a party! Laurie's Scraps is turning two, and she's throwing quite the party to celebrate!!

Summer Living

I can't believe the summer is winding down and the kids will be back to school. So, now is the perfect time to scrap those last few pictures of summer fun! Or, in my case, I'll be scrapping several hundred photos! Digital cameras are so nice, but they can be a real curse too!

Laurie's Scraps has a great new kit for all those summer moments, especially if they involve eating. Here's what I did. This little guy loves watermelon almost as much as he loves candy!

There are a lot of great elements in here. I know, I used a ton - but there are still lots that I didn't use! Here's the entire kit - 20% until next Friday! Click on the preview to shop, and head to Laurie's blog for a freebie!

A Name and a Blessing

Laurie has collaborated with another designer at DSC to create this special and beautiful kit. It is designed with blessings and christenings in mind, but it is versatile enough to scrap lots of pictures with. I am done scrapping my kids' blessing pictures, so I scrapped a photo of my kids and all their cousins. And the kit worked beautifully! Here's what I did.

This kit is full of soft and delicate papers and elements. It would work perfectly for any baby photos you have, and so much more. Here is a look at the entire kit.

This kit is only available at DSC, so head on over and check it out! It will be on sale for 20% off until next Friday! And Laurie has a freebie for you that you can grab on her blog.
