Lovin' the March kit from Coordinates Collections...

I am so thankful that I was chosen for the Design Team. The gals are wonderful and Jaime, the owner, really rocks her kits. This month is no different. I had alot of fun 'creating' with this kit. So much so, I made a total of *6* projects with the kit and still have a ton of stuff to use up.

Have you seen the previews?

Jaime, the owner of CC, has really been rockin' her kits. It was so hard for me to pick just one kit to showcase for March.

Embellishment Add-Ons


Paper Add-On


And then there is the fabulous 'Around the World' kit. I couldn't just pick one kit, so I ended up ordering this one for myself.

Pattern Paper Add-On (which I really wish I had order...just may add it to my upcoming order)

There are a few more add-ons for each kit, just head on over to CC to check them out.

Love weekends like last weekend!

I took Friday and Monday off from work because the boys didn't have school. They had a min-winter break. Boy, it seems that kids today get more days off than I ever did.

I decided to make it a fun day for us. We joined Brenda at Pizza Hut for lunch. Gotta love their Buffett!! Since, we aren't able to do much for Spring Break, so I decided to take the boys to a local Inn. We signed in around 3 P.M. and they swam until 4:45. Then we went back to the room and watched cartoons until about 5:15 and then back off to the pool. Our friends, the Swaffords, stopped by and swam until about 7:15. Then we all went to KFC for dinner and then back to the Inn to watch cartoons and go to sleep.

After the breakfast bar, the boys got ready to swim again. They swam for a couple of hours before check out. All in all, I think the boys had a wonderful time and that is exactly what I wanted.

Aunt Brenda and Uncle Charlie invited the boys over Saturday night. So, I dropped them off and ran to the local scrapbook store. Didn't really get anything, they didn't really have anything I really wanted. So, I headed back home and jumped online to participate in the online crop over at Scrap4life. I stayed up way later than I normally do. I had alot of fun and was able to accomplish a few layouts.







When the boys came home on Sunday, Rog decided to take them ice fishing. I couldn't believe it...another day to myself! So, I spent another day scrapping. What a great weekend.

January...

The sponsor for the month of January was American Crafts. I was so thrilled! Love AC. AC was kind enough to send us some papers from their new Amplified Line, Thickers, brads, ribbon and a few other goodies. I like the layouts I did, but am unsure of if I did the goodies justice. I created 2 layouts and a couple of cards.








I, in no way think I am a good card maker. I think, no I KNOW, I am going to have to work on this. LOL! Some people just have such a talent for cards and I just can't seem to pull that out of me.
