I have been having so much FUN. The kids have learned how to pick up after themselves or they have to pick up after everyone (lol) & this leaves me ample time to scrap. I did even more challenges for SDD this week. I am seriously addicted to that place. The atmosphere there is so wonderful & supportive.
NOW ONTO THE GOOD NEWS!!!!!
I have created a couple of Freebies! Now be patient with me. I am not a real designer, more like just a creator. I am hopeful that I do this right, if not someone please let me know. I got so much positive feedback on this wordart that I decided to give it to anyone interested.
(pick it up here)

I used it in this LO here. Using the add on of Babys First Year by SKrapper Digitals.

AND I have even More! YAY right? I was inspired by the Ad Challenge to create my first ever Template. I have become addicted to templates too (anyone else see a pattern forming). If anyone is interested here are the links to the template

Here is what I made with it. I used Tropical Dreams by KissedByPix Design - Team Kissed that can be found at TKO Scraps

I also found a new (to me) site, and a designers blog/store that is amazing. The site is called Scrappin Dollars, and I picked up some fantastic kits (I mean truly fantastic Full Size Kits) for only $1.00.

I made the following projects from the kits purchased there.

This was a challenge for SDD Lets Make a Date, it is my 2012 calender for May. I used a kit called a Touch of Blush by Creative Scraps by Crys.

and this one is using the kit All Boy also by Creative Scraps by Crys

The Blogger Designer I found is the Kit Cart. And OMGoodness! She is super talented. You can get some great deals through her site right now too. I look forward to getting my first newsletter from her. I would love to be on her CT Team too. Maybe someday.I am still DLing all my great purchases from her. Next time I will have more examples to show off. Right now all I have is my new siggy I made using Spring Has Sprung by the Kit Cart

And another original creation by ME. Carlos loved my 'paper'so much that he asked if he could paint it. That is a huge compliment from him. Here is the page I created from scratch.

Thanks for looking. And feel free to leave any feedback you would like.

WOW. I have been keeping myself so super busy. I have done a whole bunch of LO's. Twin Mom Scraps is having a fantastic sale. She is headed for vacation, and is leaving her stores at 20% off.
She also has a fabulous new kit, Summer Paisley I got to use it to make a LO of Missy's new baby. This kit is gorgeous, and so fun to work with.
Here is baby A. with Summer Paisley

I also did some challenges for SDD
for the Bird Cage Challenge, using a great MINI of the kit Sea Memories

and this was the template challenge. A fantastic template by Designs by Sweet Mesquite
and the fantastic kit used was You & Me by Snips & Snails.

and for the Studio: the template challenge using You & Me by Snips & Snails Designs
Once again starring my little man Justin.

Wow I have done a lot of pages this week. I discovered how much fun Progressive Scraps are. I made one for the PS Challenge for the Studio. I am difinately addicted to that challenge now. Min is awesome. It must be so hard to host a challenge like this. She does a great job.
I also am learning how to use templates. I love this. I did 3 pages with templates. Some great beach pages of the little girls. And I made some May pages using Twin Mom Scraps Beach Break
This was a great kit for mw because it tied the colors of the girls swimsuits together very nicely.

Twin Mom Scraps Beach Break LO's

The nex two were made with By The Sea Collab by Kay Miller and Studio Flergs. This is incredible beautiful elements & the colors are swesome. I also used two FABULOUS Templates by Jenn Lindsey Designs.

This was a challenge for Scrappity-Doo-Dah. The template was provided by Alegna Designs. And the kit I used was Tropical Dream Collab Kit (TeamKissed - Tropical Dream) purchased from TKO Scraps

I have been busily scrapping away. It is a nice stress reliever, but I really need to remind myself that I do have other responsibilities. I am a bit more sleep deprived than I used to be, too many late night dates with Photoshop. lol. I also have some good news, I made the CT Team for Twin Mom Scraps. She is an amazing designer with absolutely stunning kits! I made a couple of pages with her newest kit Budding Prettieslast night. It was a fun kit to work with.
Here is what I made.


This is for a challenge on Scrapity Doo dah

I haven't posted here for so long. I have been away fram scrapping for 2 years, but now I am back. I have found some wonderful new designers around. I cant wait to start to really play with some of my new kits. When the computer crashed a couple years ago I lost everything, including PS. I was so sad. Now I am settled in Brazil (the move went great) and I am back online with an upgraded PS. I am so excited to start this adventure all over again.
So here are my most recent pages:
Ashley is my oldest daughter. She is starting out a modeling career, and these were some pics she took for her portfolio.

Kaydence is Ahsleys daughter (my granddaughter) she is a complete doll. I miss them both so much, they still live in the States.




and of course I had to make pages using my little girls
