the scrapping bug kit reveal...

August 29/08









OKAY.... I just realized that I cant leave you for a few days without posting my creations from September's kit at http://www.thescrappingbug.com/
It is the appleton line from Scenic Route, and even though my son hasnt started school yet, I still had an easy peasy time finding things to scrap that worked with this line.
I made 4 layouts, 4 cards, and one altered item with this kit...ready for a lot of pictures??
p.s. Go check out the bug gallery to see the AWESOME creations from my fellow dt'ers.

MIA for a few days

August 29/08

I had another doctors appointment today, and it looks like I will be going for my surgery tomorrow morning, because it has gotten infected and Im in a lot of pain.
I am going to go sleep now:) but I should be up and running for Monday.
Enjoy your long weekend

I need your votes

I entered our puppy into a canine idol contest in the Winnipeg Free Press, with the grand prize being $500 worth of dog products, but She needs ALOT of votes to catch up and pass some of the others.
All you do is go to www.winnipegfreepress.com/canineidol type in her name Memphis(She is the only dog named Memphis in the competition) and click on vote for this canine.
You are allowed to vote for the dog once every day til it ends September 5.
Thanks so much!!!!!

Good and bad news

Lets start with the good....
**I won a prize pack from Fancy Pants designs..WOOT!!!WOOT!!!!!
and tomorrow I am going to my friend Lindsays for dinner and an evening of scrapping.
The bad...
**I saw my Doctor today and I have a cyst(I forget the clinical term) So, tomorrow I go for a complete physical and I am waiting to hear the date for my surgery. I will be put under, and have to spend at least one night in the hospital(My body is so tired from all of these surgeries) So I am a little nervous about this, but the last few days especially I have had quite a bit of pain from the cyst.

On another note......I am waiting for my blog count to hit 10,000 so I can post a giveaway to my loyal blog viewers...so, lets get viewing:)

Look at....

How talented my 4 year old son is.
He created this layout completely on his own, using my scraps, some glue, a pen and some embellishments I had around.
All I had to do was write Memphis' name on a piece of paper so he could spell her name in letter stickers, and I had to write I (heart) her, so he could write it himself on a piece of paper.
I LOVE that he shares my enthusiasm for scrapbooking!!!! I WILL encourage this:)

Just so you know...

I have NOT taken a break from the creative world....In fact I have made more layouts, cards and altered items in the last few weeks, then I probably have in 2 months.
I wanted to share 2 new layouts, loven some KI Memories:)
The first one includes a lot of hand cut designs
and the second one included a lot of hand cut designs, and some huge use of the Martha Stewart butterfly punch.

Jessica www.jessicaguthrie.blogspot.com who is the owner of Kits 2 remember(whom by the way is currently holding a call for a new design team) has tagged me
so here are 7 random facts that you may or may not know about me.....
1)I Do NOT like puppies at all, but I sure do LOVE our little Memphis. I have always found them annoying little terrors(lol) and while she can be one, she is also pretty darn awesome.
2)I have a life threatening allergy to tree nuts, but have also had the occasional small reaction to cool whip and sunflower seeds.
3) I am NOT a morning person, but days when I am up early, I have my most productive time of day
4) I have 7 parts of my body tattoed
5) I will never wear contacts again in my life..been there, done that and it was not for me
6) I, along with dh and several close friends all believe I have ADD... well actually I think I have ADHD because I also can be very hyper.
7) I could easily spend an entire weekend lounging in my bed, watching tv or movies.
**Now I am going to tag a few friends.....
