A lot of scrapping stuff to take care of. First, Jen's kit Mover's and Shakers is now in her Gingerscraps store. Preview is linked.



Second, Steph has a new set of templates out. Here is the linked preview. I made a LO using Char's new kit called Mommy's Little Stinker. Isn't it cute? My LO is me when I was about 8 months old.



Next, STS is having a sale starting tomorrow! Go and check it out! Stuff to Scrap is a great store with lots of great designers.


And last but not least is the STS National Scrapbooking Day Celebration! They are doing a challenge a day in their forum. Go there to find out more!


Here is the best part of the celebration. Every day in November, they will be giving away a piece of this fabulous kit! Isn't it amazing??? I personally cannot wait to get this!! =)




Alright that is all. I am tired and am ready for bed!

Giggly Shop Hop

Wow, I am totally out of it. I totally forgot to post my LO for Char's new kit called Giggly Shop Hop. It is the last of the LOs I made while backstage running lights for the play. I think that I have a good excuse though as we are in the process of packing up our house!!

Anyway, without further ado, here is this really adorable kit. I hope you like it!! Preview is linked!

Wild Wild West

One more tonight and then I am done for awhile....=)
Steph has a fabulous new kit out called Wild Wild West. It is a collab with Scraps of Ellay. I love these two kits. The papers and elements are so much fun! Here are my two LOs and the previews. Click on the previews to go to their stores to buy.
I used a template by Stolen Moments and a photo mask by Stephanie (preview below-click to go to store) I used both kits on this LO.


This LO I used a template by Stephanie - preview below. Click to go to store to buy. I used mostly Steph's portion on this LO (two papers are by Ellay) The WA is by Bethany.



Here is Steph's preview.

here is Ellay's preview.

Glee

Alright, here is the good news that I am shouting with "glee" over...we just bought a house! We signed our last agreement with the owners and now it is onto the appraisal and then escrow. Our closing date is on or before November 24th. We are hoping (and praying!) that it closes a little sooner than that because we would love to move before the week of Thanksgiving. The house is actually back in the same area we moved from last summer, so that will be interesting! =) It is 3400 square feet with 5 bedrooms, but they are LARGE rooms, so 3 of them could be used as bonus rooms. We are going to do some renovations when we have the money. Hopefully things will go well and we will be able to do them right away. Anyway, we want to knock down two walls, take out a fireplace, and replace the flooring in the two rooms the walls are separating and the kitchen. It will be a great house for us.

Onto the Glee the title of my post is really referring to. Shel Belle has a great new kit out today! It is called Glee and it is based on the TV show of the same title. The best part about this kit is that it is FREE this week only! So go to her blog to download each of the parts. Here is my LO and the preview of the whole kit. The colors are fantastic! Click on the preview to go to her blog to get the papers.

I used a template by Scrapping with Liz. I love her templates!

Afternoon Delight (full kit!!)

Wow, this week has been CRAZY! I was involved with our stake production of A MidSummer Night's Dream. We have been working since July and last night was our final performance. It was fantastic to watch these people who are not actors put on a great performance. They all grew so much. I was so proud of them.

I also had jury duty this week and had the opportunity to find a young man guilty of assault and unlawful imprisonment. I am glad that he is off the streets. I am also very glad for the opportunity to be on the jury. It really opened my eyes to the justice system and made me proud to be an American.

Anyway, it was a good week, but crazy. Surprisingly enough, I was able to create all 5 LOs I needed to for the CTs I am on! I worked during the breaks in court (we have a morning and afternoon recess, supposed to be 15 minutes, but usually turned into 20-30! lol) and between light cues on the play. I guess I just use my time wisely....=) So stop back later today and tomorrow because I have some fabulous things to show you!

First up is.....
Janice has a great new kit in her STS store. She loved the color scheme and theme of the October STS blog train that she turned her mini into a full kit! It is a fabulous kit with an AMAZING alpha. You just have to get this kit! And good news....it is only $1.99 for the first week! So hurry to her store and get it before the price goes up!

Here is my LO and the preview.
Isn't that alpha fabulous? It is pink, but I recolored it for this LO. Very easily done.


Have a wonderful Sunday! I will be back later with more kits and some exciting news!

Gothic Romance

Hey everyone! I have a new kit to show you!! It is amazing! I just love the colors in this. It is called Gothic Romance and it is Steph's version of a Halloween kit. Don't you just love it?
Here is the preview and my LO I made. I am working on another one, but my mojo left me while I was working on it. It might have left because I just haven't had too much time to scrap...hopefully it will be back soon! Anyway, hope you like! =)
You can buy this kit at STS. Also, you should go to her blog here for an excellent freebie add-on. I LOVE the add-on to this kit. Very nice.

Don't you just love the polka dots!?!? I love them. =) Well have a great evening!

Boost of Confidence....

So today was pretty interesting. It was my first day back to school after being gone all week. I am juror #7 right now. So I have been in court all week. I get a break from court all next week and then I go back for a week. The judge has a conference, so we can't be in court.

Anyway, when my kids walked in, they were so excited to see me. That felt really good. Then, I got lots of "what's wrong with you?" "You look different!" "Have you been rubbing your eyes?" "Why are your eyes so red?" Isn't that great? What a great boost of self confidence. I explained that I had a stye in my eye and so I decided to not wear any eye makeup. Darn kids! I will never believe Brett again when he tells me I look pretty even without makeup!!

Alright, that is it right now =)
