Happy Saturday ya'll. Hope it is a good one for you. It is cold and dreery here today. Brrrrrrr. Brandon is Scuba Diving today. I am hanging with the buds. Waffles graced the breakfast table. Lots of building with tinker toys etc took place after. Now the boys are coloring some velvet color posters I bought them...man they love those things. And I love the dollar tree. Every time I go there I stock up.

Speaking of fun finds...I went to our Big Lots the other day. They had some great scrapbooking goodies. I got some flowers and ribbon reallllly cheap. And these adorable accordian albums...the 6x6 were 3.00 and the 4x4 were 2.00. This person is selling them on Ebay for 7.50 plus 5.50 shipping. Talk about profit,lol. I also picked up some itty bitty albums for 1.00. looks kind of like a matchbook album but larger.

I am also working on some altered goodies..but you have to wait to see, hehehehe.
Though I am having trouble with one. I want to sew some lunch bags...and my machine won't do it. I have seen others get it to work...but is no go for me. I have adjusted the tension, made the stitches bigger...just won't work. Any thoughts?

I worked even more at the school this week. copied my big ole hiney off. getting crafts ready for next weeks fun time. we have so many fun things...turkeys, hats, feathers oh my! I am done there for a bit, lol.

Is anyone looking for some Christmas Kits right now? Bren has some gorgeous ones out at Scrapbook Graphics...Check these out:





Kim Hill released an adorable hanukkah kit at ACOT and CG essentials. as well as some fab alphas and cool stitched sequin swirls. woot.



Rachel Young went crazy and has these gorgeous papers for only 1.00 today at FPD.


and Kathi (lauraskathi) is Givinggggg away this freakin awesome Michael kit for a dollar too! Today. Run to FPD and snag them both! (If you click here...you can see lots of their stuff plus the others for a dollar)


I am also in LOVE with everything Amy Wolff has been making at the Lily Pad.

ok...that is enough enabling,lol.

I have had some ask me if my older templates will be available at scrapdish! the answer is of course my pretties. and all the square I have had will be made into rectangle. I also have a few brag book templates, card templates, a through-the-year celebration template set, a paper bag template set etc all coming out in the next month or so..perfect for presents. And hint hint...I will be having a SALE! We are swithching servers right now, so all will be better and faster! I will let you know when it happens.

A couple layouts I made recently.



Have another goodie for you...a square template. Here is the layout I made with it (I used the awesome 2nd bday kit from Elemental Scraps. man is that thing packed full of goodness!!!) the preview doesn't come close to showing you all inside.

Here is the preview.

with this one...not going to give you a list of do nots. instead take this as a challenge. I would love you to scrap some special memory with it. I scrapped the first thanksgiving we had with out my gran and with out uncle bob (they both passed away in October of last year). We all got together and had a nice dinner.

ok kids...going to go play a memory game with the boys...they are sitting here staring at me,lol!

hugs and love chicklets!
