I’m having a sale this week – buy one kit, get another one free!  (Excludes collaborations and mini kits.) Just add two of my kits to your cart and the second will automatically show up as free. 

Oh yeah, and Colour Splash is back at SUN!  Cari, Ivonne and I are participating this month and we all have color coordinated goodies for you to mix and match.  Check them out HERE.

Here’s what I have:

Thanks for looking!  Have a great weekend!

The boys are back in school and I actually have a few hours to myself four days a week.  Yay!  So after I spent the first few days napping, cleaning, and running errands I decided it was time to scrap.     I eased myself back into it with a template from the Shabby Princess and a couple of kits from Flergs (Tuesday’s Child, Shenanigans and In Bloom).  I usually like lighter colored layouts, but the dark browns looked too good to resist.

Thanks for looking!

I love Nicole of Sugarplum Paperie.  Aside from having really beautiful designs, she is one of the nicest people I know!  So I was pretty excited about collabing with her.  Our new kit is called A Sweet Day and is filled with all kinds of sweet, pretty little things.  Since Nicole is a guest at Sunshine Studio this month you can find it in her shop there.  And it’s 30% off through this weekend.

My boys just started back to school this week and so I thought it was the perfect time for a new school kit.  It’s 30% off through the weekend, as well.

Thanks so much for stopping by!

Have a super awesome weekend!

I have some good news for you font lovers.  Sugar Frog Fonts is making a comeback!  We needed a little break, but Sugar Frog Fonts is back with a new partner: NeeNee of NeeNee Designs!  I’m really excited about working with NeeNee to bring you all new fonts.  The site is getting a revamp and we’ll be adding some great new fonts.  We’ll also be accepting new submissions soon, so keep an eye open for that!

First of all, thanks to everyone who left a comment about summer in my post below.  The winner of the ring is ChrissyW (love your templates)!  I used random.org to pick a winner and she was comment # 14:

Chrissy, I’ll be emailing you shortly!

Since my guest stay at ScrapMatters is now finished all of my kits from there are coming home to SUN.  Since they are new to SUN they are 30% off through the weekend.

Hey guys.  I don’t have any new scrap stuff this week, but I thought I’d write a post up anyway.  I haven’t done anything fun on here for a while, so maybe I should do a random giveaway? 

A couple of weeks ago I was browsing through Etsy looking for rings in my size (I have fat sausage fingers and finding cute girly rings for them is… difficult) and I came across JJ’s Jewelry112605.  She does these really cute wire wrapped rings and earrings!  I’m really into cute, casual jewelry as I’m a pretty low-maintenance kind of girl and just like a little bit of bling.    So anyway, I bought a couple of rings and this is my favorite!

It’s pink jade and sterling silver wire and it looks so sweet on my hand.  I just love it.  The picture just doesn’t do it justice!  And the pink looks pretty bright there in the sun, but it’s not really that bright in normal light, it’s actually pretty subtle.

So I’ll give away one of these pink little darlings here on my blog.  Just post a comment below and tell me your favorite thing about summer.  I’ll randomly choose someone on August 6th.

Hope you’re having a great week!

Even though I’m a designer and feel moderately comfortable with my designing I have to admit that when it comes to putting the actual pieces together to form a layout I am not the most talented.  Or even the second or third most talented.  Okay, I probably come in dead last, and that goes for siggies, too.  (Siggies = those really cute little name graphics that the cool people put in their signatures in forums.)  That’s why I love templates!  So when I opened my newsletter from The DigiChick I was really excited to see siggy templates by Laura Banasiak!  I didn’t even wait two seconds to buy them!  LOL  Check them out:

See what I made?

I actually almost feel like one of the cool people now! 

Definitely check out Laura’s templates, especially if you’re inept at that kind of stuff (like me).   heh

I can’t wait to see who applies!

I’ve had a lot of requests lately for some of my older kits, so for a short time I’m going to have my most popular older kits available as bundles.  They are only $5 per bundle and are in groups such as boy themes, girl themes, holidays themes, etc.

Also, a reminder that my July grab bag will only be available for a week more!

Pam created this layout using my grab bag.  Isn’t it adorable???

Thanks for reading.  Have a wonderful weekend!
