Hi Everyone! This is Lydia, a member of Amy's CT - here to show you Amy's newest kit, Flowers for Mom. This kit is perfect for Mother's Day gifts and layouts! I just love the colors of this kit, and the patterns and textures are simply gorgeous. You can get it at Polka Dot Potato and Digital Freebies. And, right now, it's on sale!

Take a look at what Amy's CT did with this beautiful kit!

A Little Something!

Hi ya'll!! I am going to call it an early night! Tomorrow is a busy day - Eli and Zoey get to meet their Mother's Day Out teachers and Eli has a doctor's appointment - again! Poor little guy - he's got an awful ear infection and the antibiotics he has been on for a week aren't helping! :( Add to that a couple of errands that we need to do, taking Aidan to school and picking him up, homework, completing an altered "Mommy and Me" project tomorrow and etc - that's a busy day!

But before, I head to bed, I have something to share! It has been forever since I gave away a freebie just for the fun of it - sooooooo I decided it was high time! Here is a fun and unique (I think!) template for you! The template is based on the layout above that I created using Scrapbook-Bytes' Element Team MegaKit for August - Hit the Trail! It is an awesome kit - the textures and elements are so fabulous! And it is only $5! Check it out here!

Download my template here! I hope you like the template! If you download the template - please leave a comment! And please don't directly link to the freebie - if you want to share the template with someone - that's great - just send them a link to my blog!

Keep a look out - in a few days I'll be re-releasing my calendar tops templates! They are fabulous for working on your 2008 calendar! :) I hope to have them out before the weekend!

Thanks for stopping by! Have a great night!

Daddy's Girl and more!

Good morning! Tonight Aidan has his first swimteam meet! Yesterday they had that poor boy swimming up and down the length of the pool so I think he is ready physically but I am sure he doesn't know what to expect tonight so we will see! You can be sure I will have lots of photos to share!

Today's "Hot Topic of the Day" at TDS is "Why we scrap." This is such an easy one for me today! On Wednesday, Aidan's last day of school, my Mom told me that on my last day of schools she always took me to the Village Green for ice cream! Unfortunately, I have no memory of this and if she wasn't here to tell me, I would not have known that she had this nice tradition for me! And now that I do know it, it makes me feel just a little more loved. I scrap so that my children have this! So that they remember (or are reminded) of the little things and traditions that we have. I scrap about me and my feelings for them so they know they are loved and that I am proud of them. My life is so much better with them in it - I want them to know that and feel that through their scrapbook pages.

Okay, that's enough sappiness even for me at the moment! I am so excited to share with you my newest kit - Daddy's Girl! (See picture above.) I have so many pictures of Zoey and her Daddy that I want to scrap with a feminine kit but so often they are just a little too feminine for pictures of Daddy too. So along came "Daddy's Girl". It's on sale at Scrapb00k-Bytes through Wendesday for just $4.50. You can take a closer look or purchase it here!.

I have the best Creative Team! These ladies are both fabulous scrappers, CT members and friends! Here's a small showing of what they have done with Daddy's Girl!

Any fun plans for the weekend? We are headed to a little town called Hondo for a "Fly-In". More fuel for my sons interest in airplanes of all kinds! Other than that, the meet tonight and tons of laundry! I love reading your comments and learning what everyone else is up to - so what about you? What are you up to this weekend? Thanks again for visiting! I hope have a great weekend!
