WOOOHOOOOOOOOO ....

Ollie got his first goal at the Midget level tonight. He's had a couple of assists so far, but this was the first goal. Unassisted and a beauty of a shot! I'm a proud hockey mom!

Of course wouldn't you know... one of the few times hubby didn't take pictures of the game! *sigh*

Still a fantastic night and a good win!

New kit and a fun layout ...

WOW, I'm not being a very good blogger these days. My job has been super busy and it taking a lot out of me right now. My dream job would be to make enough designing to quit "my real job"! LOL

Here's a look at the kit that was in my Surprise Box last weekend. It's now in all my stores and I'm super pleased with this one. It's the first one I've done with monochromatic and it turned out better than I expected. Actually this kit really surprised me. I did the first paper and the paperclip last summer/fall and it's just been sitting in my spare parts folder. I pulled it out last week and this kit went together instantly. I love when those happy accidents happen!

Here's a layout I did last night of King Patches that was a lot of fun. I love that I'm having the creativity to do layouts again and still be designing. I lost a lot of that for a while and it feels good to be back in a fun groove again.

Need to finish up some elements for the other custom kit I've been working on called "Rachel & Friends". It's got really fun colors and I've had a blast playing with them. Also got the palette for the August mega at TSG. YUMMY colors!

Need to get started on some other new kits too. I do take requests for custom kits and love ideas of what people are looking for. Please feel free to comment me or e-mail me any time. I want to do some other monochrome type kits and would love ideas of what people would love to see in them.

One more thing and then I must get back to work. There's always the debate of whether people want to see solid color papers that coordinate with the kit in the kit or not. Do you want to see solid color papers in kits, or is that something you can make yourself and would rather not have included? I'm of the mindset that maybe I should add them, but not count them towards the "value" of the kit?

A Surprise Box and a HUGE Sale!

It's Lori's birthday party at Digi Scrap Shak and we're having a huge bash! The designers each created a surprise box of goodies that will be on sale in the store for only $2.00. I've seen some of the previews of these boxes and you cannot go wrong by picking up as many of these as possible. They are a super deal. Here's a peek at the preview for my surprise box. The preview itself includes some hints. However, I will tell you that it is a brand NEW FULL size kit. A huge bargain for only $2.00. Also, everything in in the store is 40% off! This is a one day only event on Saturday June 9th .... so get over there and get shopping!

Almost Box of Dreams Crop time ...

Wow, I can't believe the crop is tomorrow. Time sure flies sometimes! Here's another ad for the crop, a preview of the pieces that Diann made for the attendance and challenge freebies.

Here's another ad that I'm sending out for Peggy's Rose. Corina from my Dream Team CT did two very wonderful layouts for me to advertise with and I'm excited to send this out.

Have I mentioned lately how much I LOVE my Dream Team and my Dream Team CT???? These lades ROCK!

It's just another manic Monday ...

Got that song stuck in my head this morning!

Just making a quick check in from the busy weekend. Friday evening was tons of errands. On a good note, Ollie's red helmet finally came in. Now he has a red helmet and red shell when he plays with the high school. I truly can't believe he's so close to high school now. We just got all the year end stuff about the moving up ceremony, etc. Yikes!

Saturday was a few more errands, chores and a game for Ollie. They played well and ended with a win. Poor kiddo missed an empty net goal at the end of the game though. He had a great run, but shot just wide trying to avoid the defenseman on him. You could see him throw his head back immediately. I told him there were plenty of shots from his team that missed the net, but his was obvious since there was no goalie! LOL

Sunday was a ton of chores and then the movies. Ollie and his friend David wanted to go see Pirates of the Caribbean 3. Mind you we saw it 2x opening weekend, so hubby and I decided we'd see something different. We saw Knocked Up and it was absolutely hysterical. First of all, I can't remember the last time we went to a "grown up" movie. Second, I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard I cried. It was good stuff!

Sooooo it's Monday and time to get back to work. I have a bunch of design stuff I need to work on too. Here's a super cute picture of 2 of our fur babies:



Hugs to all!
