New layouts

I can't believe it's almost our anniversary. Tomorrow we will have been married 7 years and together 9. You know how guys usually forget anniversaries? Well, this year it was me. My hubby asked me the other day if we wanted to go out to eat today to a "fancy" restaurant. I looked at him quite perplexed and asked why. He wasn't too happy. I apologized profusely, but the day to day Mommy stuff makes me forget what day it is...truly!

So since anniversaries have been on my mind ever since :), I decided to scrap some of our honeymoon shots that have been sitting in a box for the last 7 years. No digital shots just the shots we took from cameras left over from the reception table cameras. So even with some great photo actions from Coffee Shop, they're not the best pics in the world. At least we have them.

I used a great kit that's releasing on Monday, July 27th. The kit is called Holiday Memories and it's by Rena Designs. You'll be able to pick it up tomorrow in both her stores: Digi-Shoppe and Scrap Dreams
Here's the kit preview...



And here are three layouts I did with the kit. The Cayman Island layout is my favorite.

New releases, New freebie

I love July. It's my favorite part of summer. I don't feel the pressure of school starting yet like I do in August, and I can just enjoy the little things with my kids and husband. I just wish July was twice as long.

I always have big summer plans too for what I want to get done around the house. It might not look like it, but I'm really on track. I've gotten the porch cleaned...finally. I organized the kids playroom. And I'm meeting my goals of using my crockpot at least once a week and trying at least one new recipe. We've tried a couple of new dairy free/egg free recipes for my oldest son. So far the PB Banana Chip muffins are the big winner. But his all-time favorite is zucchini brownies- a recipe we discovered last summer. We've made them once this season, but he's already asking when I'm going to make them again. Unfortunately our one zucchini plant seems to be growing just one little zucchini at a time. Here's a link to the zucchini brownies on All Recipes. They're yummy. I make them without the frosting b/c of Gianni's milk allergy.



Here's a quick peak at my new releases at Divine Digital.







Each is priced at a $1 today for Dollar Friday. You can find them all in my boutique.

Here's today's freebie. It's a sweet little mini kit. I hope you enjoy it. You can download it here.

New layout...finally

Wow, it's been over three months since I posted. Being back to work with two kids left me little time for scrapping, designing, or blogging. This has been the first week I've been caught up enough to get back on track since summer break started.

Let's see...what's new in the time I've been away. I went back to work a month earlier than planned b/c hubbie got laid off. It wasn't as hard to go back to work as I imagined it would be and the three months really seemed to fly by. Marcus is now 7 months old and trying hard to crawl. My husband decided to take a class this summer and the boys went to daycare for the first time. I never dreamed I would spend so much time each day getting things ready for daycare. Marcus needed breast milk pumped, unfrozen, and packed along with his bottlesand bottles each day. Gianni, due to his food allergies, needed all his own food packed each day. Then there was getting their bags packed and unpacked each day. It took hours every day. It seemed like by the time I did that, made dinner, and bathed the kids it was time for bed. At least the kiddos really liked the sitter and we made it through without any food allergy reactions. G did have problems with the pets at the sitter, so we know that's still one of his top allergens besides his food allergens.

On to the layout...



My first layout in three months was done using a kit called All Boys by Digiscrapations. The elements in this kit are so sweet and the colors worked perfectly with this picture of Marcus playing with one of G's new toys. I guess boys truly are born loving cars.



All Boys can be found in all of Digiscrapations' stores including Twilight Scraps, Michelle's Angels, and GBL Creations.

I hope to be back later with a new freebie and previews of my latest designs!
