I'm ACOT's Guest Paper CT for January!!

I got to work with Hometown from October Afternoon and it was GREAT to work with! If you haven't seen it yet you can here along with the layouts I did :D

Need Chipboard?!! HUGE SALE

How can you not take advantage of it!

Holy Gorgeous and LAST chace!

I went ahead and ordered some 12x12 prints from Scrapping Simply and they turned out AWESOME!!! The colors are true, they're glossy and what I uploaded is what I got! There is no resizing or anything just upload and order! And the 12x12 prints are only 1.99!! And if you live in the area you can also just go and pick them up! Definitley try them out if you're needing some prints!
On a sad note, I only have two more days left at Oscraps. I'm closing my shoppe for various reasons. So head over there and grab over 250.00 of products for only 25.00!
S4O/S4H friendly :D

Did you see the Jan. CK??

We have a glimps of what's coming for our Winter Release! Page 60!

Tuscany Villa

Will be the name of the new kit!! Random Generator pulled up number four! Congrats t.cimorose, email me so I can get you a coupon :D
Thanks everyone!

Buy My Store!!!

I'm retiring my shoppe at Oscraps on Dec 31st! Right now you can get all 110 products for only 25.00! S4O/S4H Friendly!!

My poor poor little kit

I did this kit this morning, and it has no name :( Sad right! So I want you to download the quickpage, play with it post it and link where you post it in the comments along with what you think I should name the kit. I'll randomly pick someone to give the kit to from the comments :D





Download the Quickpage HERE.

Good and Bad

You just have to roll with the punches sometimes right! As of Jan. 1st you'll be able to find my complete digital collection exclusive to ACherryOnTop. I don't think I'll be able to keep up with the new requirements at Oscraps. You'll still be able to find some products as well at ScrapWow. I totally enjoy designing but I'm not sure how much longer I'm going to be able to "enjoy" it!?!
On the flip side, I'm the December featured member at 2croppincousinz and the layout of the month winner there for November as well!

Finally something good!!

After a long, not so fun week! I'm really excited to announce I made it on the Magistical Memories Design Team for 2009!!
Here's the rest of the team! I can't wait to get started!!

Ahhh, online shopping.....

I have to say that usually this time of year, I do a lot of online shopping. I decided to go ahead on black friday and stay in to do shopping as well. I ordered from Walmart.com and ToysRus.com. Walmart was great, shipped free to the store no hassels. ToysRus on the other hand, not so much! Shortly after I placed my order I get an email saying my order has been suspended and I had to call them. So I did, seems they had a computer glitch, no problem I understand that. Second, when you use your debit card they put the entire amount on hold. Well with my bank, if I have a transaction pending it comes off my balance. I understand the hold part because a lot of companies do this, but it came through twice. Called again, they said it will drop off in a couple of days. Ok. I then get another email stating that one of my items was cancelled. No reason why. So I call again, it's now out of stock, even though this item was "found in stock" for the last 3 days. Ok. To top of this glorious experience. I receive my package. Luckily the item that was out of stock didn't ship in this box because I would have never gotten it. I had to hurry and take these photos before my four year could see!






So, I don't think I'll be ordering from them again. I'll drive the mile to Target or mile and a half to Walmart.

ETA- I did email them through their corporate web site, they said my concern was forwarded on along with this at the end "Ms. Teets, I do apologize that you had a negative experience with our on-line department. I am sorry that your order arrived in that condition."

Looking for something more personal for the Holidays?

I did some shopping last night on etsy. I have to say that site is a curse to my paypal account! But I did find a great shop last night. And if you're in the states they're last shipping date for stuff to get here isn't until the 10th :D
Here's what I got from there, ok actually I grabbed two of them. You're able to choose with sets you want :D


They also have the cutest site as well. Although, I don't know if I can get my cart to go to US currency, that could be something that gets converted in paypal.

Here's their site, which is totally cute and their etsy store.

Looking for a camera strap?

I've been stalking this etsy shop forever, and the great part! She's giving one away on her blog!

Do you have a strap, do you love it, like it?! I'm also in search of a good point and shoot as well if you have one you totally love!!

Secondly, I think I pretty much have my new design team narrowed down, so hopefully I can announce that tomorrow. Thanks to all that have applied! Also, I wanted to share a layout with my Grafica Kit from Michelle Lanning, one of my fav paper designers in dabbling in digital!

OMG, I SO can NOT wait!!!

The final trailer is out for Twilight! I will be there on opening night. And if I had my way, I'd go watch it in NYC with my girl Alexis!

I need more cowbell!

Not much has been going on here. I finally got furniture in our sitting room downstairs, the emptiness was driving me insane! I hate to spend that kind of money, if anyone knows me, but I.had.to.do.it!!
Ill get some pics up as soon as it's finished. I really want a vinyle decal from Jason 's Designfruit Etsy shop. I'm hoping he can match the RGB if I take a photo to get the color just right.
Other than our trip to the ER this week with my four year old, that's all thats new!
OH! I made one of the top favorites in the last OLW challenge with the word keep!

Change...

I decided to try and scrap today,even having to run down into the garage for supplies (men...grrr), just to get the mojo going again. I did this layout for ACOT and needed a title, I always tend to gravitate to One Little Word just to see what the new word is and it's CHANGE right now. I also found this great quote on the internet to use as well. We've had a lot of change these past couple of weeks, so bubble blowing was a nice change from chaos.
I used Dream Street, Sassafrass, Rusty Pickle Chipboard and Thickers
TFL

Finally!!!

We're all moved and the cable JUST got hooked up today! Long story on that one!! Now I need to paint and get some furniture downstairs all before DH gets back home! I've got 4 weeks though! LOL! But I do have to share one little friend we made since moving in :D

I'll get more pics later!!

Also, make sure to check out the design team call for Dream Street!
