Howdy Ya'll. I hope you all have had a safe and happy week. I know we've had a HOT HOT one!! That's Texas for ya LOL!!

Kim Broedelet and Jen at Chaos Lounge got together and came out with an awesome kit "Angel Tears", inspired by a famous South African wine. It's just lovely ladies. Awesome work :-) You can snag it at Kim's store over at DSO or Jen's store over at Enchanted Studio's Scraps.

I really enjoyed playing with the kit. Just lovely. Here's a couple pages I made. This first one is of me dear friend "Scooter's" special day. The kit is PERFECT for your vintage type wedding pages.

And here is another. This is my handsome guy on his special day. I was one proud proud momma. I was full of tears that day, I can't even share any of the pictures of me I was crying so hard LOL!!! Two down, two to go ROTF!!!
I made this page into a freebie Quick Page for ya'll. You can CLICK HERE to snag it.
Don't forget about Enchanted Studio's "Fabulous $1 Fairy Finds". Here's a peek at what Jen at Chaos Lounge and Bonnie Van Esch has put up for us this week. The kits are just lovely and so much fun to play with and they've even snuck in a few awesome CU goodies for the designers in the bunch.

Plum Glum and Ruby Gloom are BACK ROTF!!!!!

Well Ya'll, I am very very happy and proud to announce, I now have a new store. Kristine has asked me to join the gals over at "Wenchd Grafix". Also, Bunny Cates has invited me to join the team at Digi Scrap Obsession so I will be joining them soon as well. Can we all say YAY!!! I know I can ROTF!!! How cool is that ya'll. I went from a store open for basically just the weekend (that was a TOTAL BUMMER!!), to NO STORE AT ALL, to two of the BESTEST stores around!! I'm so excited and proud ya'll!! Once again, thanks so much to those in the Digi Scrappin Community who remembered and opened your doors to us Sweet Tarts. I believe most all of us have now found new homes :-)

This week, I've uploaded my "Plum Glum's Wedding Day" and "Ruby Glooms Wedding Day" kits to my brand spanking new store (big grin) over at Wenchd Grafix and to celebrate, have marked them down permantly to $2.50.


Here's a layout I made with "Ruby Gloom" and little "peek" at one of the goodies from Kim Broedelet's Mini CU Grag Bag 2 for this weekend. AND, here's a little hint, she has some OUTTA THIS WORLD photo masks in this baggie!!!!


Be sure to visit Kim's blog to take a look at more pages done with goodies from this weekends bag. There's some awesome "sneak peeks" at all the wonderful goodies inside :-)
I was following links, visiting people who have stopped by and look at these cool cool pages I found at the BG Mamma Forum using my "Secret Lands of Sleepy Nods" Mini. Awesome work ladies!!!

While I was cleaning out folders tonight, I found these funky little borders hidden away. I'd forgotten I'd even made them and can't remember for the life of me what I made them for. Blonde moment I reckon ROTF!! Anyway, I thought I'd give them away to you all as freebies. Commercial use is fine :-)

I'm sure you all noticed the blog makeover. I was wanting a new look so I played around with my "Sleepy Nods" mini a bit. I've decided to share it with ya'll as well. I'm not good at writing instructions really but I did my best. They are just basic instructions so if you don't know how to use these, please be sure to search a bit and pick up a few tips first. I would hate for you to loose all your widgets. These layouts are really very easy to use but WAAAAY to complicated for this blonde gal to explain in detail ROTF!! I enjoyed making this so be on the look out for more :-)
Ok, I'm off here to get back to work. I was SUPPOSE to be re-installing my printer tonight before Bunny comes in here and tans my hide LOL!!! But, I got side tracked by all the pretty shiney sparklies in my folders, easy for me to do. Especially as I usually end up on the phone with tech support before it's all said and done, got the phone by my side as I'm typing. You all have a safe and happy weekend :-) I'm off to tackle that pesky printer ROTF!!!

A Friend in the Dark

First, before I say anything else, I want to thank EVERY ONE who left such nice and encouraging comments last post. Each and every one just made my week ya'll. I really needed those smiles after the rough couple of weeks I've had in digi land LOL!!! All that visit and take the time to leave a little love here, you are a wonderful group of people and always appreciated, yes, even you Anonymous :-) I will be sure to keep your suggestions in mind when I'm finishing the full kit as my blog freebie's are the add on, a little peak of sorts at what I'm working on at that time. I should of explained that better :-)

Jen at Chaos Lounge has an awesome new kit out, "Peggy's Magical Rainforest". I new exactly what I wanted to make with it as soon as I seen the unicorn and purple papers LOL!! I'm always amazed about the little toddlers who get lost in the woods for days then are later found safe with just a few cuts and bruises, none the worst for the wear. Don't you ever wonder how they make it through those long cold nights???
"A Friend in the Dark"

I just have to show ya'll my new little "Duddly". He came to us a country pup, having happily spent his days chasing hens and baby ducks. But sadly, he's frazzled the hens so badly they've quit laying. Sooo, sweet little Duddly is now our city pup of leisure. Do ya think he's adapted??? No shame at all ROTF!!! I finally got to play with Kim's new kit "Moody Days". It's such a pretty kit. I started playing with it and for some reason I started thinking of paintings and I got all "retro" LOL!! Must be her cool grungy elements and papers :-) Here's what I ended up with. Here's a little peak at everything else in "Moody Days" to play with. I loooove the ripped paper leaves and as Kim said the "grungy earthy feel" of the whole kit. It's just too cool ya'll :-)
I made my "retro" page into a Quick Page. You can CLICK HERE to DOWNLOAD.
