Scrap Matters is having some minor problems but...

don't let that stop you from finding the new releases. The problem is...new releases won't be released until tomorrow....sigh. But I will let you know that Kim, the Geeky Diva (I giggle at that name, it's so cute!) will be releasing a CD Calender kit for 2011. What a fantastic and very easy Christmas present for your family. A little hint when you work with this. Remember it's a ton smaller than a 12X12. Make your shadows a lot smaller than normal (say you set it at size: 20, distance: 10 and Opacity: 75, bring it down (10, 5 or 4 and 65 thru 50). It makes the shadows more in perspective to the size of the project. Here is the preview of the kit:



And here are my first four months. Way kewl huh???



So hop on over to the Geeky Diva store at Scrap Matters (just click HERE) and take a peek!! Enjoy!!

IT'S MANIC MONDAY!!!

If you're not aware, Scrap Matters always has this great sale on Mondays called "Manic Monday". Some designers will offer a kit at a humongous discount and, check this out, Kim (otherwise known as the Geeky Diva) has put her "The More the Merrier" page templates on sale for just $2.00!! That's less than a cup of Starbuck's coffee!! Check it out here! And here's a peek at the templates...


Look at all those photos you can fit onto one 12X12 scrap page. Not bad, eh? Well, gonna make this one short and sweet. Gotta go! Have a great day!!!

Well, I've been gone for a while..

but I think I'm back for good!! 5 infections cannot keep me down!!!

I've started scrapping again and first, I had the privilege of using Geeky Diva's NEW "Letterbox Templates" found at Scrap Matters (just click!). I used it to scrap my photos of the Barcelona Cathedral and they were perfect!:







I love how they turned out! I used the kit "Wings and Wildflowers" by Creations by Rachel.

I also completed the In Living Color challenge at SM. We had to use the color green (not too hard for me). Here's the layout "I'm 1 Today" starring little Jackson opening his presents. Too cute!



For this layout I used: Birthday Bash(boy) by Trixie Scraps, Glitter Mess by Juno Designs and Half Moon Bay by Chelle's Creations for the stitches.

Well, gotta go nighty-night as I have to work tonight. Have a great weekend!!

It's been a difficult past 2 months but I'm hoping to find my health improving over the next few months. First, I'm losing weight but I'm not on a diet....I've changed my eating habits a little at a time. Also, I will be starting a new psoriasis med in April called Stelara. Woot!! I can't wait!!

It has been way too long...

Then about 5-6 days later I sprained my back (actually the diaphram muscle) and I can't take muscle relaxants....argggghh!! Anywho, I can now get up without help and the psoriasis is slowly clearing!!! Feels good to be back on the puter!!

Without further ado, let me talk about the next Quick Page Exchange (QPE) at Scrap Matters. The kit is "Love ya" by Page Frocks and you can find it here for 30% off for a while (this ad was made with the kit, does that tell ya how cute it is? So hop on over, pick up the kit and join in the fun!!!

Wowzers....

Has life been interesting this last week or so. I've been scrambling to get on a few CT's and I'm excited to say I'm on some awesome teams!! One is the site CT for Denim and Daisies.net. My first kit was Reflections - their mega collab for January from which I created a couple of layouts.

First, here's the kit

Also, I had completely forgotten that I signed up for DigiScrap Addicts Scrap Off 2010!! We are given small mini kits (part of a larger kit) for the next 3 weeks. Their CT members will vote for us with the final chance of a 3 month guest spot on their CT. Kewl beans, huh? So I'm off to work on that layout next!
