Happy Scrappin’ to you all! 

Ahhh! A wonderful break and freebie for you!

Yippeee!  It is officially the holidays!  We are off this week for our Thanksgiving break, which is already 100 times better than last year.  (remember the dreadful H1N1 hit me hard)  I am watching my two boys play with two of their friends from church and reflecting on how blessed I truly am!  Not only do I have two great and healthy boys, but I have two awesomely compassionate and good at heart children!  I am so thankful to God for trusting me with them!

I will be in town all week this year for the holidays, which is also a change for us.  But I have already shopped for my meal (and got it cheap thanks to my coupons!) and planned for my Black Friday events!  I am sooo ready this year!

Now, on to what you have been waiting on…the freebie!  I am so fortunate to work with a lot of great designers in the digi scrap world and Kathy Winters is one of the best!  I love all her work!  Here’s her latest collaboration with LauraMarie Scraps “Christmas Jingles”.

Now isn’t that just the cutest holiday kit around!  I fell in love with the pink and raspberry colors mixed in with the greens!  You’ll also love the elements and alphas.  I loved it so I hurried and made my December 2011 pages with this kit…here’s a preview…

 

Aren’t those some sweet faces singing last year in the church Christmas program?!?!  Yep, I am biased!

And I also made a December Desktop using Christmas Jingles!  Hope you like!

You are welcome to grab it HERE!  I have included many sizes to adapt to your desktop.

I want to wish each and everyone of you a very Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving! 

Until the next time…

Blessings,

Missy

Love Me! New Release and Freebie

I know it has been a while…but SCHOOL’S OUT!  And I am so excited!  It really seems that during the month of May I might have scrapped 5 pages.  However, since school let out last Friday, I have been one mad-scrapping lady!  And the latest new releases by the designers have equally inspired me to get off my tail and scrap!

Here’s one for example! Love Me by Inspiredbydominic Designs

This phenomenal kit can be found at Inspiration Lane and Scrappity Doo Dah.  Also look for the Word Art pack which is AWESOME!

Here’s a page I created using this kit…Jake is 4 in this pic and I caught looking out on the lake, deep in thought! 

And I decided to create a template for you using this layout as inspiration…So HERE you go!

DOWNLOAD HERE

So I hope you drop by Tiffany’s store and grab her latest kit!  I wish you all the best and love to here your comments!

Happy Scrappin’!

Until the next time….

Blessings!

Happy Mother’s Day & a freebie for you!

As Mother’s Day approaching, I decided to share with some of my thoughts and wishes for this Mother’s Day.  Let me add that as I type this my youngest “angel” is screaming his head off because he is not winning at the wii!

First, I don’t think of myself as a shallow person.  Really. But I am struggling with the way I am feeling about this Mother’s Day.  So, this week every night was devoted to a kid’s activity…flag football, baseball, church, etc.  Two days of work missed for kids’ illnesses and Mothers’ Day activities at school.    And the only free time I had to myself to relax, pray, etc. was when I was shopping today for groceries or when I would wake up in the middle of the night from coughing my head off.  And to top it off, my DH brought home pine straw and finished off my flower beds and said “Happy Mother’s Day!”  Don’t get me wrong…I am not ungrateful, but IKNOW he would have done it anyway but because he did it this weekend it is my gift! 

Now I am know I am  speaking to the choir, but come on!  Why am I being so selfish…I just want to have a day where is not all about what can MOM do now!  I even asked my boys if they could just started a one sentence every now and then without saying “Mama” first!  (they can’t …they tried but were not successful) 

Oh well, now that is off my chest, on to the goodies…I am dabbling a little in designing.  I had started this kit a few weeks ago but am not 100% happy yet, so I am offering out the papers that I am pleased with now to you for FREE!  Hope you like them!

Download HERE

And here’s a page I made with the kit…My boys!

 

Please leave some comments, constructive criticism is welcome!  The more I hear from you guys the more motivated I am to design for you!

Until then…

Have a blessed Mother’s Day!

Loving Weekends

Can I just add one more time to this blog how much I love weekends!?! Why yes I can because it is my blog to do so! I LOVE WEEKENDS! Not only do I get quality time with my family...kiddos are so much fun when you have them all day long on rainy days! LOL! But I get to catch up on scrapping stuff...like last night, I spend probably two hours organizing my completed pages by year and also by which ones were ready for printing and not going to be printed. I got another shipment of 2009 pages yesterday and I still am missing about 5 or so pages to have that yearly scrapbook finished! Yippee! Then I can move on to 2003-2008 books while working on the current year! LOL!

Now, onto to what you guys love to grab...the FREEBIE! I am so honored to work with some great designers including Leticia with Pixiemama Designs. She does great work and I love the latest product she released for sale at Scrapable.
So I created a freebie for you guys from this kit...and it is My Valentines Quickpage!

Too Cold for anything else...

Howdy! As you know I hang my hat in the deep south, but apparently it is not deep enough! It is FREEZING here! I can't remember being so cold ever! I don't think it has been above freezing since Thursday (and then it was brief!) and we have even had snow...nothing to show for it! And I got to enjoy another PJ day with my boys yesterday since we had SNOW...LOL! Yep, all you folks living in the north get a good chuckle out of us Southners! Anyway, I am so over being cold and ready for some warm sunshine!!!!

On to what you all are waiting for the FREEBIE! I am honored to brag about Tiffany & Jaya's collab which is a masterpiece!

Midnight Resolutions is the perfect kit to scrap all those New Years pictures. I have even used it to create our fridge calendar because I love the colors! It is now available at Scrapable, Inspiration Lane & Scrappity Doo Dah...so head over and show these girls some love!

Here's a couple of my layouts using this kits:




And here's your freebie....a quickpage made using this beautiful kit!

Until the next time,

Coming to an end...

Boohoo! My winter break is coming to an end! While I have had a blessed holiday, I have gotten quite used to being lazy, wearing jeans & a sweatshirt and scrapping all day if I wanted! LOL! I do get another day to sleep in and nap, but I am sure I will be getting everything ready around here for us to head back to school Tuesday.

I have been pleasantly surprised at the number of downloads for the Sweet Pea Cluster/frame that I had previously offered. So I am offering you another freebie from this beautiful kit by Inkin' Creations. You can find the entire kit at Pretty Scrappy.

Here's a peek at the entire kit:


Here's another page I made using this kit:


And here's your freebie...a quickpage using this awesome kit!


Now, a few simple requests before you download. Please visit Erika's store at Pretty Scrappy and pick up this kit! You'll love it! Also, show some love for the quickpage if you like. While the number of downloads is nice to see when they are high, having no comments is discouraging! I love reading your comments, so continue to leave them!

Until the next time...

Blessings,

Happy New Year!

Happy New Year to all! WOW! 2009 flew by! I have had a hard time hearing 2010 today but I am sure I will be getting the hang of it soon enough!

So since I last spoke with you, Christmas flew by with the boys tearing the house up with new toys! My family has come and gone and I spent three days chaperoning our church youth group to a mountain retreat! And you know what, I probably gained a greater yearning for doing God's work while watching and working with these kids! Can't wait to see what the new year brings!

On to scrapping...I was very fortunate to be selected by Inkin' Creations to do a few layouts using her latest kit, Sweet Pea. This kit is available at Pretty Scrappy and Inspiration Lane.


Here's one of my own pages using this awesome kit:


And as a gift to you...I have a freebie! Here's the cluster/frame I used in the above layout! Be sure to stop by and pick up Inkin' Creations' great kit!



Pick up the freebie HERE

Until our next time....

Blessings,
Missy

Ta-Dah! I made it! And it is free to you!

HeHeHe! I had a fantastic day yesterday! First, I was able to scrap a good bit. You know anytime I can work on some pages I get absolutely giddy! Second, I was chosen for Layout of the Day again at Inspiration Lane...WhooHooo! Come check me out and leave some luv! Third, I received an email that I was chosen for a One Kit Call on a collab with Sara Ellis and Connie Prince. I have already started creating a layout using their kit and can't wait to share it with you all tomorrow!

Now to the freebie...with two young men here at home, I watch my fair share of Nick Jr (aka Noggin). So, I was watching this morning before church and saw this cute little flower made of candy corn. I love it! So, I searched all my Halloween kits and too no avail found anything like it. Which leads to the freebie...I made my own! I hope you enjoy.

Many Blessings until next time!

A True Southern Lady...

Loves some football on Saturday! And it is even better when the Dawgs are playing! No, I know how to spell, but here in Georgia we spell it just like we say it! Even though my boys were outscored today (Boo OSU!) We are a young team and will rebuild to our championship form. Anyway...SEC is the only conference in all of college play! So with opening day today, I was inspired to pull out some of my UGA tailgating/football pics to scrap and thought I needed some color-coordinated pages and elements. So I decided to venture out and create my own! Yes, this is my first kit and I am so excited about it! I am offering it as a freebie for a week or so to see if there is interest in and then may open up a store to start selling my products.

Here's a preview of all that is included in my Glory, Glory UGA Kit (5 papers, 10 elements):

So I can't wait to hear all your thoughts about the kit and would absolutely love to see your pages created with any of the items.

Blessings to you all,

Missy

Starting a New....And a freebie for you!

Whoa! I just rhymed and did not even plan it! So, I was not on much last week mainly because we started back to school. During preplanning, we teachers really did not get much planning done at all! I know that is not a surprise to those of you out there that teach, but I really wish the higher ups would wise up a little and let us have a day to get our room set up and plan with our other teachers. But not this year...LOL! On top of everything, we are always furloughed for three days this year. Our first furlough day was this past Friday and, in protest, I did not go to the school and chose to mow the lawn and tidy up the yard instead! I hope my dear hubby appreciated my efforts! If nothing else, it really entertained my two boys!

On an another note, my oldest, Jake, will start kindergarten tomorrow! I am so sad! I have held on to my boys being little and not exposed to so much of what goes on in the world! But now I feel like I am losing a little of my grip! But Preacher Tommy's sermon today hit home for me! On going back to school, we as parents should be preparing our children to be equipped to handle the pressures, demons, and dangers of our world. I also loved the reminder that our children should see us praying and practicing what we preach to them. I hope with all my heart that my boys will retain these lessons I have been teaching since birth. If so, my day tomorrow should go pretty smooth.

Now, what you all have been waiting for... A FREEBIE! As you know I have been trying some template making out and enjoyed it so far! I was even thrilled to see that my first templates have already had about 50 downloads after one day on Digifree! Yeah! So here you go....
