No Shortage of Work

With the opening of Kreative Kreations just around the corner, I am finding as much work as I can take on getting layouts to some of the designers.  I have another seriously GORGEOUS kit by Z Pink Boudoir Designs to share with you today called Gothination.  It's gorgeous, punky, but remains versatile as you'll see from my two layouts.  First, though, peep this yummy stuff:

and I made these two layouts with it:

So pop on over there and grab this darling kit up!

Wednesday Wednesday Wednesday!

So much yumminess to share I am not even sure where to begin!!!

Tuesday Layouts

I'm (still) avoiding my chores, bwahahaha!  But I have SO many awesome photos from Christmas to scrap!  And this kit from SATW, Holiday Lights, is just PERFECT for so many of them!   Here's my first one of the day (as per usual, I'm sure there will be others added later):

Just look at all those goodies!!

Good Times!

I'm happy to be working again today, tho I will have to break soon for chores (eww!)  But here is my first layout of the day.  I hope to have at least three before I turn in tonight, so I'll just add them as I go because I can't wait for you to see this one.  I'm really happy with how it came out.  I used Z Pink Boudoir's Dark Kiss and a photo of my sister and her gentleman.  :)

This kit is just so easy to use, I love it!

And this one, using Holiday Lights from SATW, a truly gorgeous kit so full of awesomeness I almost can't handle it!!

I can't share the rest yet, but you know when to look for them... that's right, Wednesday baby!  :P

Happy Scrappin'

I have a few to do tonight so I'll add them as I complete them.  I've finished the first, another layout using Scrapberry Designs' lovely kit Tootie Fruitie.

and template set 3 #3 by Megan Turnidge.

Then I took on the last 2 challenges at PDP.  For the Christmas Challenge:

kit: Smitten by Allison Pennington

And for the Christmas Eve Traditions Challenge:

kit: Smitten by Allison Pennington

Back at it!

We had a pretty wonderful Christmas.  I hope that you did, too!  Today we had one of my oldest's friends over for lunch/playdate.  It was nice, he got to play his new Wii game with her.  We ordered pizza because it was a special sort of thing.  :D  Now she's gone on home, my kids are mellowly watching a movie together in the next room, and I'm getting some scrapping done.  YAY!  :)

I worked with a new (to me) designer's product today, and I am totally in love.  Z Pink Boudoir will be selling at KK, and this is one of her gorgeous kits in this layout:

You can pick up this beautiful kit, called Dark Kiss, here.

And another gem from Scrapberry Designs is Tootie Fruitie, I made this with it:

and template set 3 #2 by Megan Turnidge.

Busy busy busy!

...but you know me, not too busy to participate in the new challenges at PDP!  :D

I had a very LONG afternoon of rolling, cutting, and baking cookies with the kiddos today.  It was a lot of fun, though, and yummy!  We all decided (and surprisingly it wasn't even MY idea!) to save the decorating for tomorrow... can you believe it?  I COOKIED OUT my 3 children!  Haha!

So that gave me a little more time to scrap!  Always a good thing!  I did two challenge layouts today, here they are:

For the 'Untraditional Challenge', which really made me think:

kit: Spoonful of Sugar by Sir Scrapalot Designs

and for the Twisted Lift Challenge (my favorite of them all, I think!)

That's it for tonight, and I doubt I'll make it here for the next couple of days.  I sincerely hope that you and yours have a very safe and Merry Christmas, or whatever holiday you observe,  I wish you joy.  :)

I couldn't resist these any longer

Several days ago I picked up this awesome element kit from Brandy Designs and I've been itching to use them!  Now that I'm ahead on my CT duties everywhere, I made a 'just because' page... I know, it's been a while, right?  :P  This is my handsome brother Bill and his lovely wife Kim.  They're on my mind a lot these days because they're expecting their 2nd child (I have one nephew, their son, and they'll be having a girl this time!!)  So I made this page with a heart full of love!  <3

I used Brandy's stunning kit Indulge, and of course, the aforementioned (awesome!) element pack BYOF.

The grand opening of KK is drawing ever near, and today I got to work with my first awesome designer there, SATW.  This kit is FANTASTIC!  So much, and it's all gorgeous, and I wanted to put EVERYTHING on the page!  Haha!  I did one right away, and sadly I am being yanked most rudely away from my computer (ok, so not really, I get to wrap gifts, yippee!! but I'll DEFINITELY be back to do more l/o's with this stunner!)  Anyway, I made this

Dabblin' Days are Here Again

This sure is a busy time of year, isn't it?

I did manage to get a couple of challenge layouts done yesterday, though.  For the twisted lift, I had to make a 2nd page (right) to complement an existing layout (left).  I don't have the photos yet, as I want to use cookie-making pics, and that hasn't happened yet... but the layout is ready.  Just imagine photos where the frames are (instead of, not inside of).

kit: Jolly Little Friends by Sir Scrapalot Designs.

And for one of the two scraplift challenges, which I just realized I lifted the WRONG layout, haha!  I'll just have to go do the correct one later, so I guess this is just an 'extra' layout for me:

Lift of the gorgeous You Are So Amazing by Manderin Oranges.

Misted- Brandy Designs

Fall Frolic- Jennifer Fox Designs and Amanda Heimann (recolored)

Now here's the lift of the correct layout:

Blog Challenge For Polka Dot Plum

You Are Bright and Intuitive

You can take in a lot of information at once. You're excellent at remembering details, and you are able to see how each piece of the puzzle fits together. Beyond understanding what's in front if you, you're also good at seeing what's missing. Your energy level is fairly high and consistent. You are good at being able to get yourself going. Your signature latte would be a skinny latte. Even if you aren't on a diet, you don't really like your food to weigh you down.
