How very sad, my poor blog!!! But a Freebie for you!

so seriously, how pathetic am I, Nov. 9th since my last blog??? How bad can I get already! All I can say is being a head gymnastics coach is a busy busy job and just trying to manage home and work three days a week and a team full of teenagers is a blessing and well, it is a blessing, but dang, I am busy! Needless to say, I am now a proud member of the design team at Purple Paper Flowers! Exciting times and I am still designing at Digital Freebies as well! So without further hesitation, I have to get you updated on products out and sales! My good friend, Karen Lewis at The Digi Chick and Digital Freebies, well, we released this months Club Kit at Digital Freebies. It is called I Heart You and it is so cute and so whimsical and a must have for your valentine scrapbook kit collection. We also released some great addons and QP sets to match this fabulous February Club Kit. Details of how to join the club are HERE. I will give you a preview of our kits!

Special Thanks to Penny Johnson at http://www.omniadesigns.com/ for the cute bear and elephant art used in these products!

And.....if you hurry fast, Digital Freebies is having a 50% off Super Bowl Sale through tomorrow February 3rd.

I have just released another fabulous Valentine Kit called All About LOVE, releasing today at Digital Freebies and Monday at Purple Paper Flowers!

Ok, and one last thing for fun! I was a contributor to kits at Scraps for Charity which has since closed and I have these kits that I want to give away as freebies...so, here is one for breast cancer awareness!

You don't want to miss out on this freebie, and I think every women I know is effected by this cancer in some way or another, I know I am!
One final thought...Delight in the Lord in everything, and He will give you the desires of your heart! Psalm 37:3-5.
Have a blessed day and happy digiscrappin!
With love in Christ

What a wonderful Friday!

I have been bad and again, haven't blogged, shame on me! We have company last night and today. Our Son Matt and his girlfriend Trish and their sweet son, my grandson, Bodi came to visit. It is horrible to say, but I haven't seen him since December. I was feeling so sad about this for the longest time, but let me tell ya, when that little angel walked through my door and I got down to scoopy him up, he greeted me with a big smile, hug and a big kiss on the lips, that just wiped away all the time that had passed. It was like yesterday I saw him. He is so much fun and will be two in December. I just had it reiterated how amazing my love for him, my grandchild is. Something different than the kids, just an absolute and total joyfulness and agape love. He has a huge room in my heart just for him! I played with him and got loads of kisses throughout the night and I put him to sleep and he was so cuddly and so sweet, and kept touching my eyes, and looking at me. He has some of the most fun little qualities any little toddler could have. I just adore him and love him to pieces and consider myself so blessed to have him, Matt and Trish in my life! Today is Matt's birthday, he is out pheasant hunting with his dad right now and I am sure they are having a wonderful time. They went with a group of men from church, including Pastor Rick. They were meeting this Am for coffee, juice, and donuts and then heading out for their hunt. The pheasant count has been tremendous in Minnesota, so I am looking forward to having pheasant for lunch or dinner tonight! I was really excited to have Matt come and go hunting with his dad on his birthday, with a wonderful group of christian men, and our pastor, as I think this will be a huge blessing for him today...God works in those oh so mysterious ways, and it is my prayer, that this day touches his heart in places that have never been touched before!


Ok, so that is my good family news, Praise the Lord! I have new designs coming out soon.....I am just waiting a tad for news and then will release them as necessary depending on that news. A few weeks back, I released a little kit called Commotion on the Ocean over at Digital Freebies. It is such a cool kit! It is geared toward reaching for goals and aspirations and achieving those goals. It is a great kit that can be used for boys and girls and just about anything.



It is a great little kit....here is a preview of the kit...I am going to be releasing it today at OAKS for 30% off for a week and at Digiscrap Boutique as well, but not on sale until Friday Oct. 19th at Digiscrap Boutique where it will be $3 all day Friday!

So, hurry over for this fun to one of my stores and pick yours up today, you don't want to miss out on this cutie...and here today, I have for you an add-on Freebie to the kit! Yay, Yay.....



SO, with this add-on, you must have the kit, lol!
