I just forget!

I get so into scrapping that I forget to post on my blog! I have a bout a dozen pages I've done in the last week! I'll have to pick my favs! First some Kasia layouts....The girls love to play in their kitchen that they got for Christmas. Matthias thinks if we got rid of all their other toys they wouldn't even notice, lol! But I don't think that is true. I went a little crazy at the Disney Store....and got them these adorable dresses with tutus and cute little princess pots & pans. Ava is totally into princess stuff...it seems to be her favorite word!

Then Kasia came out with her Sweet Garden Collection...there are two kits and a set of cute alphas! I did a page with Ava and a page with Bella.
I've been addicted to Kitty Designs at Oscraps too...and she keeps releasing new kits! I just can't seem to get enough of her! Here are a few Kitty Layouts...
And one more.....when we were in Cozumel, we laid the girls in a hammock....and it made for the sweetest photos! Bella got so relaxed she actually fell asleep! We had to take Ava out because she was upset that Bella fell asleep....she kept elbowing her. Anyway...when I saw this "Best of Friends" collab by Holly Designs and Edeline Marta....I knew I needed it to scrap these photos. My Two Peas....in a pod.
Wow...I really need to remember to start posting layouts here as soon as I'm done! I'll be back at least by Thursday with another freebie from Gypsy Couture designs.

New Copycat Challenge @ Oscaps

Well, after a long hiatus....at last the Copycat Challenge is back at Oscraps! I really enjoy hosting this challenge, but I got all confused and ended up taking two months off instead of just March. We didn't want any other challenges to distract from Oscraps 3rd Bday celebration. So it's going again and I'm so excited! Here's a link to the challenge....and my layout I did with the template!


The template is free! So follow the links an play along!

In a Funk

I've been in a funk for about a week now...it all started with the software that I use to organize my scrapping stuff with went haywire and dumped over 1400 folders into one! with no subfolders! I'm sure it was user error...but it would have been nice for some error message to pop up and say, "are you sure you want to do this?"...cuz I definitely would have said no. It took me almost a week, working non-stop to manually re-file everything, and I still have a random folder of stuff that designers didn't label properly. If a paper is labeled "paper1" and gets moved from the folder...it's impossible to know who designed it and what kit it came from! Ok...rant over.

I do have some layouts to share with you that I did before all of this happened...I just couldn't post until release dates and then forgot...

I think I've talked about our trip to the park when my mom stayed with us. It was really a fun day...and I got this picture of the girls walking on the sidewalk together.
I had a lot of fun scrapping it with this new kit by Joanne Brisbois. She's being featured at Digishoptalk for the month of April! This kit is a free download to all gold and diamond members of DST.

The next is a gorgeous kit by Kasia....released last Friday, called Twilight. Doesn't have anything to do with the book series...lol! But it it very quirky and fun. As soon as I saw the large flower I envisioned one of my girls sitting there.



And I've saved the best for last. Kitty Chen has grouped together some of the most fabulous designers in the industry to create a wonderful collab for charity. All the proceeds from this kit will be donated to a friend of Kitty's whose son has been diagnosed as PDD-NOS and cannot afford therapies. You can read more at Kitty Chen's Blog.
That's my sharing for today....I'll be back Thursday with a freebie from Gypsy Couture!
