Just realized I hadn't shared these layouts with you guys. Both are made with DeDe Smith's newest kits.

The first is from her Not So Scarey kit. It was so much fun to work with. I love the scare"mice" and the funny pumkins. I blended two of the background papers to get the effect I wanted for the background of the LO. I just love the tree with the Mickey ear leaves too. You can find this kit at Digitals, iScrapbook, and 3Scrapateers.

The second LO is an addition to her Ahoy There MateyZ kits and is a DollZ. I had a blast working with these and can see a lot of other ideas coming from it - including a hybrid paper dolls - just got to find a little girl to give them too. Hope you like these LOs.

Woo - Hoo, I'm Amanda Thorderson's CT at Digitals

I'm so excited. I'm Amanda's CT this month at Digitals. And her new kit is awesome to say the least. I love it, but then I love all Amanda's kits. You've got to go to her store and check them out. The kit I used for this layout is called Remembering You and is brand spanking new in her store. It's romantic, vintage, and perfectly perfect in every way. You're gonna love it too. Hope you love the layout I made using this kit too. Can't wait to upload more with this great kit.

Ahoy There MateyZ

DeDe Smith has a new kit out. It's called Ahoy There MateyZ and if you haven't already guessed is a pirate themed kit. There are several items to go with it - A Brag Book, a set of Quick Pages, an Add-on Kit, some Stacked papers to get your layout off to a great start, a set of DollZ, you've got to see them. And I know once you've seen them you will be hooked. You can find the kit at Digitals, 3 Scrapateers, iScrapbook (coming soon). Here's one of the LO's I've done with this great kit. It's called Sweetest Treasure.

September CT Shares for Digitals and updates on my life

OMG Guys, September came and went and I've been so busy I can't see straight. Mom's getting weaker and weaker and I don't know how much longer I will have her with me but I'm trying to cherish everyday I have while praying God will do what is best in handling her pain. While I know I will be rocked to the my very core when it comes her time to go, I think I will be able to handle it as it breaks my heart to see her suffer so. She's fought a long and hard battle and has nothing but more pain and physical suffering left for her on this earth but oh the wonders that await her on the other side. For those of you out there who pray, please keep our family in thoughts and prayers as we need all the love, support, and strenght to make it through the days ahead of us.

As for my Scrap life. I had a LO published in Digitals October Magazine / Newletter. Toot, Toot. It was one of my CT LOs for DeDe Smith and is entitled Family Is.... I used DeDe's Believe in the Magic Kit.

My September Digitals CT assignment was Kathryn Estry. She has a ton of awesome kits and I love everything she does. I know you will too. I chose to use her Cookout Ant-ics Kit and her Classic Romance - in Pink kit as I was scrapping a picnic and a wedding. Both kits are awesome. Cookout Ant-ics is so fun and playful and filled with these precious little ants who are into everything. Classic Romance is the perfect wedding, engagement, couples, love - kit. It comes in several different colors so I'm sure you can find one to match your wedding needs.

These pictures were made during our Labor Day Pinic at a state park nearby. My GS and DD had a blast as you can tell by the pictures.

These pictures were made at a dear friends wedding. I thought the kit was perfect for them.
