So much to share today!

There will probably be at least a couple of different posts today just to get all of the goodies in here for you!  Two of my designers at Polka Dot Plum have seriously gorgeous new releases today, so I will preview those for you and show off the layouts I made with them, haha!  Scrapberry Designs is having a HUGE Christmas Sale over at Pretty Scrappy, you do NOT want to miss this!

And I thought that this one had to wait til today to get posted, but I have seen the product in the shoppe so I probably *could* have posted it earlier, but I didn't want to be wrong, so here is a layout I did back when I was guesting for Susan Robinson Designs.

kit: Twinkle Toes by Brandy Designs.
sketchwaves1 template #5 by Susan Robinson Designs.

PDP's gallery is back up, yahoo!!

So here's a link to my gallery.  I'm bummed about how many layouts I couldn't post there, and overwhelmed at the thought of trying to add them all now... so I compromised.  I added the layouts I did for this week's challenges.  If I'm feeling froggy later I might go add last week's, too.  :P  It's not a huge deal since I have a pretty complete album at digi.scrap.friends.

I'm very excited for this Wednesday.  I will have two full releases to share with you, and several layouts I did up using them.

I also have a new blinkie to sport around, from Polka Dot Pixels.  Now I can play around the enabling threads at DSA and DST for her, yahoo!

I think I have just two layouts I can share, first, from the lyrics challenge over at Polka Dot Plum:

template- scraps to go 1 by Jennifer Fox Designs

kit- Funkalicious Fall by Jennifer Fox Designs and Nikki Epperson of GSD

sun- Under the Rainbow by Jennifer Fox Designs

heart- My Father My Friend freebie by Jeanelle Paige

Secondly, for the photography challenge, also at PDP:

kit: Jingle Jangle by Polka Dot Pixels.

Saturdays detract from my scrap habit :P

...but they keep us in groceries for the rest of the week, so I guess it's all good.  :P

I did do a couple of layouts this afternoon, though.  One I can't post yet, but here's one I did for the paper to digi challenge over at Polka Dot Plum:

scraplift of Homemade by miss guiss

Jingle Jangle- Polka Dot Pixels

July07DDD sloppy stitch long- Brandi White

Funkalicious Fall- Jennifer Fox and Nikki Epperson of GSD

I also did a layout using Scrapberry Design's GORGEOUS new kit Noel Elegant on sale over at Pretty Scrappy.  It's chock full of YUMMINESS!!

Rolling Right Along

I got some work done today, yay!  I can't wait til Wednesday when I can show you Polka Dot Pixels' new release, it's simply gorgeous!  I did up two layouts already with it, and have a couple more ideas still!  I'll also have a left-over from my guest time with Susan Robinson Designs, and who knows what else!   I also finished up another challenge at Polka Dot Plum, here's the layout I submitted for it:

HoHoHoundstooth- Allison Pennington

Candy Dish Papers- Sherry Ferguson

Under the Mistletoe template 1- Nikki Epperson

Santa's Shoppe- Brandy Designs

Jolly mini-kit- Sir Scrapalot Designs

I wasn't done, I guess, cos I went ahead and also completed the Reality Bites challenge.  I couldn't get the journaling right but it started frustrating me so I just left it.  It's an uneasy topic to say the least.  Here it is:

Under the Mistletoe template 4- Nikki Epperson

Deck the Halls- GSD by Nikki Epperson and Lyndie Collins

Just One Today

As much as I longed to be scrapping today, the 'real life' intruded.  My oldest had an eye appointment (his glasses have been broken beyond repair for a couple of weeks now, and he was due for another exam anyway) and he's still getting over strep.  I had avoided doing dishes for the past couple of days (it's seriously SO COLD in there, with the broken cat door leading to the garage letting in insane amounts of cold air!) so today I buckled down and got them done.  Tomorrow I will have a couple of hefty loads of laundry to fold/put up (I swear that chore is THE WORST!) but then I have a couple of pages floating in my head that I want to try to put together.  So stay tuned, haha!  Anyway, here's tonight's, from the History Challenge over at Polka Dot Plum:

I used: A Cold Winters Night- Brandy Designs

Blossom Within- Brandy Designs

A Lot Like Love- Nikki Epperson

Autumn Kiss- Plum Designers

Such a Hoooot- Jennifer Fox Designs
