National Scrapbook Month is Coming!!

May is National Scrapbook Month. I've been taking a look around and they have something great starting. It's called the "Queen of Scraps!" They will be having tons of challenges and speedscraps, sounds like lots of fun! They will also be choosing CT members for the site so it will have some additional benefits to joining!

So come on over and join in the fun! Can't wait to see ya!!

Woo hoo!!!! I'm so excited....on April 24, the FDA approved Simponi, an injectable biological used for treating several things, but for me it should help my psoriatic arthritis. Now I just have to have patience and wait the 6 months until Blue Cross will allow me to use it *sigh*. It seems to be having good results with stubborn PA so I can't wait to give it a go.

I attended a Speed Scrap (online) at ScrapMatters. Great instructions! Above you can see the final result. The main kit I used was Low Tide by Jen Lin Designs, the heart was from Clearly Seen Elements by Jeni Hopewell and the template was a freebie from Haynay Designs.

Well, off for a few hours sleep!

National Scrapbooking Day is May 2nd. That whole week, most of the digiscrapping sites will be celebrating with sales, contests and other fun things! Some of my faves are:

Scrapmatters

ScrapbookMax

Scrapbookgraphics

InspirationLane

Jen Ulasiewicz

PickleberryPop

GottaPixel

And so many more (I'll keep adding to these). The designers I like tend to make very complete kits and the items look realistic or they go totally into fantasy. This way you'll get an idea of what you will find on those sites.

Don't forget to check designer's blogs. They will probably be having their own contests and freebies, if not on their blog, on the site they sell on!

Have fun! Scrap on!
