May
30

Why is it that on those days you should be able to sleep in because you don’t have to get up to go to work, you never can?  Stupid alarm went off at something stupid like 5:30 for Shannon.  You’d think I’d be able to turn over and go back to sleep.  But nooooooooooo. lol.  And I really need to be at the gym but my knee is giving me a little bit of problems.  I’m gonna see if it goes away and do a mid morning walk with the dogs at the park instead.  Speaking of dogs, have you seen the movie Marley and Me?  I wonder if people who weren’t dog people would want to see it?  And if they did see it, would they bawl their eyes out like I did at the end.  I truly don’t remember crying that much at a movie in like forever.  I don’t know if it’s because I know that eventually I’m gonna have to deal with it and know that it’ll break my heart when it happens.  (Don’t want to spoil it for those who haven’t seen it, but it’s a dog’s life story and the ending is inevitable.)  Carmen and Jazi are my babies, my comfort especially since I can’t have my own.   Anyway, it was a decent movie with a realistic ending.  Today I’m watching Brad Pitt in Benjamin Button.  Maybe.

I have a new kit for you today.  It’s available at all three stores: Wenchd Grafix, Digital Scrap Garden and Inspiration Lane.  Lavender Fields is a great combo of purples, sage and brown perfect for scrapping little girl pages, heritage pages and AAM pages.

And Elaine did some fantabulous pages of her granddaughters with it.  Take a look.

And lucky Lynn went away for the weekend, but purples are her favorite so I know that next week there will be an awesome page or two from her too.

And did you know that on Saturdays at Inspiration Lane they have Super Saver Saturdays and several kits, papers and even CU stuff is only $1?  Two of my paper packs, Black Tie and Zach’s PJs are included this week.  So if you havent’ snagged them yet, now’s a terrific time to do so.

And everyday at Digital Scrap Garden there is some fabulous finds in the $1 store.  The designers all do mini’s in a selected color scheme so you can choose just the mini or you can select a few to make a great kit.  Just a few of my $1 kits include:

and my newest Timeless:

I also have a freebie for you.  It’s a paper pack that coordinates with Lavender Fields.  It’s a bit grungy and I had a blast making all the papers for that kit.
