It's Christmas time!

I finally finished my 1st Christmas kit! It's called Kissing Santa, and I love it's bright reds and greens. It's so perfect for Santa pictures or anything Christmas-y. I scrapped my sweetie and me under the mistletoe. I put it on black cause I liked the blended photo better, but I have a FREE quick page for you in more Christmas-y colors below!

This new kit is on sale now at both my stores: Designs in Digital and Stone Accents Studios
Get it while it's on sale!

The Grandmother Heritage Collection

I have a freebie today from my new kit, Erma, currently on sale in my stores. I've started a new collection called the Grandmother Heritage Collection. I'm really excited about it. This quick page freebie is from a layout I did with my great-grandparents, one of which the kit is named after:)
Click on the image below to grab it!

Check back as I'll be doing a mini-kit in the colors and styles of each of my grandmothers and call it by their name. This is very special to me because most of my Grandmothers have passed on. Because I am the oldest of an oldest child, I actually KNEW 3 of my 4 great-grandmothers in addition to my two grandmothers. I also have two step-grandmothers who are dear to me, only one of which is still living. So we grew up with grandparents in abundance!

I've started off the collection with ERMA, who was my great-grandmother who lived in the same town as us growing up so I saw her every week for 16+ years of my life until she passed away. And we were quite close. I still remember sitting at her feet as she told stories of growing up which would have been in the early 1900s. Here's my new kit, Erma:)

Friday Freebie Time

Life is so crazy busy this week. But isn't it always? I've been getting ready for my dd 5 yr old bday party which is tomorrow, and I think we've done a little too much. LOL
Here's a layout I did with my kit Country Summer with my sweet baby boy.

I made my layout into a QP freebie for you, but I added lots of sunflowers. I just couldn't put too many flowers with "the boy" as my dh calls him. haha I'm more of a traditionalist than I thought I guess. Click on the QP below to get your freebie! And Saturday and Sunday, pick up the entire Country Summer kit up for 50% off!


Don't miss out on a getting this kit at a super great deal! Have a great day!

A Little Halloween Freebie!

My goodness! I can't believe it's been a month since I last posted. So much for once a week. But... my dh was laid off from his company very unexpectedly, and I've been having to share my computer with him as he searches and hunts for a new job. I was about to get a laptop, too, but now that's on pause for a bit. Anyhow, I do most of my designing late at night now between getting used to a husband at home and the ever demanding sweet children. And I've managed to finish a kit! Just in time for Halloween, too. It's called Black Hats and Scaredy Cats, and I love it! It's on sale for a limited time now at DID. Click image to grab it.

It has more purple than other traditional colors cause I love love love purple, and orange has never been my favorite. But my dh loves Halloween, and is corrupting our children to love it year round as well. So I've learned to actually like orange a little.
I've done a layout of my dd as a witch from 2 yrs ago. She wants to be a witch again this year after taking a break to be Snow White last Halloween. I guess this is good cause witches are less expensive to be. LOL

I've made it into a Quick Page Freebie. Click on image below to download. And please let me know if you like it. I'll try to get going on my weekly Freebie again, too. Have a great week:)

So I finally took the time to try to figure out how to use my own designs for my blogware. It took some time, especially with all the many usual interruptions and distractions that come with being a SAHM of 3 little cuties. But here it is finally in all it's glory. I'll be back with more later, but for those interested, the designs on this page are from my new kit, Belle of the Ball, which will be released shortly. Stay tuned:)

I need to pick a day of the week that will be best for me to blog on so that I for sure get it done. Wish me luck in this new endeavor...

And I also will offer a freebie each week as well. So I will be back tomorrow with a freebie and a plan of a weekly update day:)

Newbie with a new kit and new CT!!!

Life is so busy! Summer is supposed to be the down time for digital scrapbooking so maybe that'll give me more time to get my designer act going.

In the mean time, I now have two CT members! Yay. My first very first team:) They were both on Silly Beans Scraps CT with me and they are AWESOME! More to come, but for now here is a layout from Amy: (click image to leave her some love)!
