Happy 4th and some CT Layouts

Hey all and Happy 4th of July!! I have been pretty busy lately working on several projects and sadly my blog has suffered. I am going to try to make it a mission of mine to update at least every other day if not daily. Let's just say it's on my to do list :)

Here are a couple of layouts that I have done for one of my CT, Janosch Designs.

I hope that everyone has a safe and happy holiday and remeber take tons of pictures to share and scrap!

Busy Week & New Layouts

First off, I hope that everyone's week and weekend were great. Mine was a bit busy this week, but nothing I couldn't handle, LOL. I was able to accomplish quite a bit so that is a plus. And I was able to take more pics of my kids at their baseball games.

I am going to be a bit more busy this coming week. I am going to be sitting my twin niece and nephew, and I am so looking forward to it!! It will probably only be 3 days a week for about 3 weeks. They are so cute and sweet. My kids have been driving me crazy wanting to go to their house since I found out. They want to play with their cousins.

Here are some of my layouts that I have been working on .

Busy Weekend

Well it is officially Sunday and I have been very busy with a new scrap site. Scrap Digi Style had their Grand Opening. They had a huge mega kit that they were giving away. There was 5 different pieces of the kit, and to get each one you had to complete a couple of tasks. It was pretty fun and it gave me a chance to get a little bit of scrapping done. One of the tasks was to create a Card, a 4X6 Brag Book Page and a 12X12 Layout, using the kits you receive from the first two tasks.

Here are mine:

They also have a great challenge forum. You get freebies for completing each challenge. The only key is that you have to purchase and use their stuff. It's not that bad considering you get something free, so check it out you might find something that you like. I participated in the Wow Them With Word Art Challenge.

Here is my layout:

Another great challenge is at Designer Digitals. They have a forum with great word art, and the best part is it is free!! You don't even have to participate in the challenge. I think there is like 3 pages in the archive of nothing but Word Art. I picked some up and I plan on participating in the most recent challenge.

Here is a peek at this weeks word art and the link to participate (in the pic):

Well that is about it for now. I am off to scrap a bit more...husband is playing X-Box 360, LOL. Catch ya tomorrow!

Digi Lift Challenge and A Couple of My Layouts

I hope everyone is having a great Friday!! Just wanted to let everyone know about a challenge at The Digi Shoppe. It is called the Digi Lift Challenge. Mareen (sternrakete) hosts this challenge, and she has chosen Nicky (fulloflife) a very talented lady to lift from. This is a weekly challenge and you don't have to do just one. So come join us and get your scrappin' juices flowing!


Here is her layout that I chose to lift:

Easter Fun

And here is mine:

My husband has been pulling some extra shifts at the prison so I have been getting in a little bit of scrapping while my kids are asleep. I can't sleep when he isn't here so what better way to spend it right?? Here are a few of my latest layouts. TFL!!

Weekly Color Challenge

Yesterday I was busy with the family so I didn't get a chance to post, Sorry! But today I am back with some awesome news. I have been participating in a weekly color challenge for a while now at The Digi Shoppe.

It is hosted by Bren Boone and she is so talented. Every week she posts a color pallette that she has chosen and a freebie kit that you receive upon downloaded to the gallery. Her freebie kits are great! She has had such great response that she has actually added another designer to help her. She is know around the board as Stef.... aka: schmoopie Schmoopie Scraps. I am sure she will do a wonderful job.

I have listed below the colors for the week of May 20th, and the freebie kit for this week also. The links are in the pics. She has also created a blinkie just for this challenge, pretty cool! You can pick the blinkie up in the forum. My submission for this weeks challenge is below. If you participate, make sure you tell them I sent you X.

Here is my submission for the week:
