Bad Bad Blogger...and a Sale!

Hey everybody! If anyone is still hanging with me! I've been a bad blogger and a bad CT member! I'm behind at Pretty Scrappy by 2 kits, I'm behind with JW-Digiscraps by at least 2 or 3 kits and now Kathy is back from vacation at The Latest Scoop, Too and I think I'm a kit behind there, too! Getting back into a routine now that all three kids are in school has been crazy. Just when I think I'm going to have a free day to catch up...one of the kids forgets his lunchbox in his Dad's car and off I go on the 20 minute trip (one-way) back to school! And then when evening comes...back on the 20 minute trip to play practice...Which is really very exciting because my 9 year old daughter landed a role in the local university theater department's play. We're talking GREAT opportunity! I think about 40-50 kids auditioned and only 3 kids are in the play. The rest are the theater majors. So we are excited for her...but we are busy. So here I sit outside of practice trying to catch up a little...

With that said I have some exciting news from Janice at JW-Digiscraps! She is opening her second store at Divine Digitals! This weekend she has decided to upload all her kits early and YOU reap the benefits! While she is uploading she is putting EVERYTHING on SALE! Check out the ad below and head over to her store!

Whimsical Pages

I'm getting back into the swing of things after vacation...I'm sure you know how that goes! Extra laundry, rotten kids, over-abundant garden, etc. etc! But I'm finally getting some scrapping time in! I got to work with a great kit from Ladybug Pages called "Whimsical Wonderland". I used the Girls portion of the kit, but she also has a cute Boys version, too! I love the soft colors and the kit was PERFECT for my daughter's play pictures with the magic wands and crowns! There is so much more to this kit that I didn't even use so you really should check out this kit. (I can't get the kit preview to work properly.) You can find it at Pretty Scrappy. For full credit details, click on the previews.
