Another DAY AT THE FAIR layout !

Today I wanted to share with you another layout that I made using Gone Scrappin's latest kit called A DAY AT THE FAIR. I don't have a lot of fair pictures (just not our cup of tea, I guess !!!), but I made a page for Noah's book about his pony ride, so I thought I should do one for Mia's book.

First, here is a look at the entire kit again !!



And here is my page !!!


I should be back again tomorrow with the last page that I made with this kit !! We have meet the teacher night tonight so I hope I can get my post up and scheduled BEFORE going to that for you.

Have a great day !!

A Day at the Fair !!!

It's here !!! Time for me to reveal the latest kit from Lyndie @ Gone Scrappin Designs !! I love it and have already completed one layout, but there will be more - guaranteed!!

Here is the kit:

This will be a great kit for all those awesome little small town fairs coming up soon in the fall !!

Here is the layout that I made from our recent trip to Toronto and we went to Centerville (an amusement park type of place on Toronto Island) - my son Noah loved going on the Pony Rides and this kit was perfect for those pictures.

And the awesome thing is that I posted this layout over at Designs In Digital and I got Layout of the Day !!! That is awesome, really makes my day and gives me some motivation to keep scrappin - not that I need it right now !!!

Thanks for stopping in and I will be back !!!

Back To School & Sneak Peek

I'm back !!! Sorry that it is so late, but I promised to come back and show you guys pictures of my girls on their first day of school.

Emily is my oldest and she's almost 12 going into grade 7, then little Mia is 7 and in grade 2.

They had an amazing first day, and when they got home I couldn't help but laugh a little because they both couldn't wait to tell me all about it !!! Now my little guy doesn't start until Sept 25th, that will be a day of tears (mine probably), so I am enjoying the next few weeks when its just him & my time !!!

Now, I also promised a little sneak peak of Gone Scrappin's latest kit by Lyndie !!! Here you go !! Be sure to be back tomorrow when the kit is revealed along with a layout that I did with it.



Have a great rest of your night !!!


Catch Up Time !!!

Hello everyone,

So very sorry for not posting to my blog in such a LOOONGGGG time, but with moving and everything I just haven't had the time. We're all moved and settled in now, and with the kids starting school today (WohOO !!!) things should get back to some sort of normal again !!! Don't get me wrong, I hate that summer is over - because I had an absolute blast with my kids this summer - but I don't like winter at all and usually around South Western Ontario you never know when we might see that stupid S word - of SNOW !!!

Anyways....I promise to be a much more faithful blogger again now. So today I wanted to share with you some things that have been going on over at Gone Scrappin Designs. Lyndie has put out some great stuff in the last few weeks - take a look:



Isn't this one - called CIRCLE THAT DATE - just awesome, I used it recently in a layout that I will share with you tomorrow !!! (image should be clickable to the store, where you can pick up this cute little set)

Next up, is a nother cute addition to your stash called RECORDING LIFE, I haven't used this yet, but I can't wait to use it !!! I really need to journal more on my layouts so this will come in handy !!! (again, image is clickable !!!)

And certainly not lastly is a new kit called ALL MY HEART which is just GORGEOUS and I haven't played with this one yet - but I hope that I get the chance to, because the colours are right up my alley !!! But you should take a look over at Designs In Digital's Gallery to find some inspiration from some of the others on the team because I know they have some awesome stuff over there with this kit !!! (image is clickable)

Well digi scrap land that is getting you all caught up on the goings on (I think - hope I didn't leave anything out). I will be back either later today to give you some photos of my kiddos on their first day and maybe show you around my new place - and I promise to be back tomorrow with a new kit that Gone Scrappin is releasing tomorrow for you - and I even scrapped a page with it !!! I know AMAZING!!!

Have a great day !!!
