New Address!

August 10th, 2011

It has been in the works for a long long time but I finally finished it!

 

My new site now combines my personal blog and my design blog along with a few other goodies.  I am slowly building up my design portfolio and adding information to the Info page.  If you check out the Stay Connected at the bottom of the page you will find links to all the ways you can stay connected!  The Flickr link is a little empty right now but will soon have my personal layouts added.

Thanks!

My Only Sunshine

July 21st, 2011

You make my happy when skies are gray!

My Only Sunshine is a digital scrapbook collaboration from Meghan Mullens and Amanda Heimann. Sunshine peeking thru on a cloudy day is enough to make anybody happy! Yummy paper patterns, adorable wordart, and fun flowers make this kit a must have for any layout!

Come chase those gray skies away! My Only Sunshine is 20% for today.

Stars and Stripes for you!

July 3rd, 2011

The 4th of July is one of my favorite days.  I love the thought of family, BBQ, parades, fireworks, fun and celebrating the birth of a nation.  It combines all my favorite things into one day.  We are celebrating today with a lot of BBQ, swimming at the local pool and relaxing with family.  My boys are a little sad that there will not be any fireworks this year (burn ban due to drought) so instead we are going to bring out the telescope and look at the stars.

 

How about a holiday gift?
Stars and Stripes is a paper pack with 10 pattern papers and 6 solids.

I also wanted to mention that I put Calypso up at TDC this week.
It is the perfect kit to scrap about the hot summer nights!

 

 

Have a wonderful day!  Be safe!

Rainbow Connection, Ctrl Alt G and a Birthday!

June 24th, 2011

Hey there! So after moving and unpacking (and being without internet for a long 3 weeks) I decided that my grab bag also needed to be unpacked!

This week I released Rainbow Connection and Control Alt G.


Rainbow Connection

Come chase the rainbow! Filled with bright colors and fun elements this kit is perfect for your spring and summer photos.

My Creative Team knocked it out of the park with this one.  Take a look:

Control Alt G

Included in this fun template pack are 8 masks to clip your papers to. There are 5 page borders and 3 page trims to add depth and layers to your layout.

How about a coupon code?
Since I will turn 36 this weekend I think a 36% off coupon sounds good!

36-Bday

 

Enter the code 36-Bday in the shopping cart to receive 36% off your order.  Can not be used with other coupons and may not apply to collaborations.  Expires June 30, 2011

Have a great day!

This week I had the pleasure of working with Leah of Mommyish Designs.  We knew we wanted to create something pretty and seasonal.  I have to admit that I usually do not enjoy making girlish kits but I adore this one! 

Butterflies, green grass, a picnic basket and lemonade- everything you need for a pretty picnic!

It is packed with papers and plenty of fun elements.

We hope you like this kit as much as we do!

Win it! *edited with winner!*

April 13th, 2011

So here is the short version of what has been going on with me: We Are Moving!!! No, not my designs but my family. We sold our house and are packing up and moving to my husband’s hometown and very close to where I grew up.

If you know me at all, you can imagine how messed up this has me! My desk is piled high with lists and paint chips. On weekdays I am busy packing, cleaning and getting a little bit of designing done. On the weekends we are painting, cleaning and preparing the new (to us) house. Life is crazy but we are so happy and excited about our upcoming move.

Until we get moved in (end of May) and all settled I will try my best to have a few new releases for you. I am trying to come to terms with the loss of high speed cable internet. I am also trying to mentally prepare myself for the temporary loss of internet service during the move. Hopefully the wait to get my new slower service will not be that long. :)

So that is where I am today. Crazy! I guess you can call this an apology in advance for lack of new goodies.

But I do have one new item for this week! I had many requests for another set of wavy templates and I was more than happy to comply! Leave a comment here and I will pick a couple people to win the new template pack. You have until Thursday afternoon to get your comment in.

Example from Sheri:

Thanks!

 

***Winner!***

Congrats to Candi for winning the new templates.  Check your email soon Candi.  Thanks to everyone for playing along.

March 17th, 2011

Yeah I realize I am a little late.  I blame it on daylight savings, spring break and the fact that I started 30 Day Shred yesterday.  I could hardly move after that brutal 20 minutes.

Here are the winners!
