Couple of Easter LOs

Been busy scrapping away those Easter photos. This has been a lot of fun. I cannot believe how much more independent my children are than they were last year - Cayden at least. He amazes me everyday day. And in 4 short weeks, he's going to be 2.

All of these Easter LOs were created with CanDesigns Easter Kit, Yummy Goodness.

Here are photos from Hannah's Pre-K Egg Hunt. This was a lot of fun for everyone involved!!





And here are some photos of Cayden during the Cousin Egg Hunt. Thankfully, Aunt Bekah was there to take these photos because my camera was at home on the dining room table. Cayden is fairly obsessed with Soccer Balls this year so he was very excited when he found the Soccer Ball Eggs!


And here's a small LO I created using photos of our family from Easter.
And here is a LO I created for the ADSR Challenge 10 (unofficially) and Mrs. Wresh's challenge for week 9. I am absolutely in love with this LO. It turned out sooooo nice.

I am loved!

Many, many months ago, I applied for my first Creative Team!! A fairly new designer had ventured out into the world and posted a CT Call at DST. I was a little nervous, but decided to go ahead and see if my LOs would fit the bill to be a part of a CT. This designer is CanDesigns. When I first starting creating LOs using her kits, she was at several stores, but now, you can only find her designs at Stone Accents Studio.

Candee's designs are beautiful. With each new kit she publishes in her store, I am amazed at the design and technique she's used. In honor of each of her CT Members this week, she's actually created a kit bearing our names. And look at this GORGEOUS kit called "Rose." She's giving it away for free on her blog, but you have to visit Mermaid's Haven if you want to snag it!!

Thanks, Candee! It's an honor to work with you.

All About Clara Sue

Another one of my amazing CT member is Clara Sue! She's is a sweetheart. I adore all of her LOs and was so pleased when she emailed me to ask if I was still accepting CT Members. She has definitely helped make my designs noticable.



In honor of Clara Sue, I have created another Brag Book Album, this time using my Kid's in the Kitchen Kit. And just like the other two, you can download it for FREE from my Scrapper's Zone or KJOI Stores TODAY, March 19th ONLY.

And on March 19th only, you can pick up the entire kit for half off but only at Scrapper's Zone and KJOI Studios.

And now, let's get to know Clara Sue a little more. Clara is from Tennessee and has lived there all her life. She's been married to her High School Sweet Heart for 28 years, Ricky. They have two sons - Brandon and Matthew, two daughter in laws -Eva and Amanda, and three grandchildren - Bryce Jaden, Ayla Jade, Conner Matthew, and one due in the fall. She started scrapbooking on November 30, 2006 when she stopped and bought a scrapbooking magazine with a CD to the site. The rest has been, as they say, "History." She says she's so addicted it isn't funny. Aside from scrapbooking, she enjoys being lazy with my hubby, watching her grandbabies, reading, watching old movies, being with family and friends, sewing, and traveling.

Thank you, Clara Sue for all you've done for me!!!

All About Ms. Kari

Happy Tuesday y'all. Today I am honoring Ms. Kari of my awesome CT. I got to know Kari at a chat with SeAScrApS. I gave her a free kit of mine and thought she was so sweet that I invited her to be on my CT. She's an awesome gal, although she's a BoSox and Patriot fan. It's not my fault that she's blind to the best sport teams out there - the Yankees and the Colts. I'll forgive her though since her LOs rock the house!

In honor of Kari, I have created another Brag Book Album, this time featuring my kit, Chocolate Kisses. And again, TODAY ONLY, you can pick it up for free in my SZ and KJOI Stores.

And of course, if it's one of her favorites of my designs, it's on sale at 1/2 off so for one more day you can pick up the Bold and Bright Collection, About a Boy, Chocolate Kisses, and Hannah's Backpack at 50% off, but only at SZ and KJOI.

And now, let's learn a little more about Ms. Kari. Ms. Kari is currently living in Kansas City, MO with her hubby, Nick, and kiddos, Shane, Sean, and Justin. She has 1 pet of the animal variety, Abby, her miniature doxie. She began paper scrapping nearly 4 years ago, shortly after Justin was born. I wanted to document our lives in an interesting way other than just in plain boring picture books. She started digi-scrapping in June/July 2007 so she could keep family that's scattered all over the US more updated in what's going on with their lives. Some of her other hobbies include reading, which is a MAJOR think in their home. Her family also loves NASCAR (Jr - 88), baseball and football, which her favorite teams are not worth mentioning twice on my blog. Ha ha ha. Kari also volunteers with the Key Volunteer Network, a support system set up for the spouses of deployed Marines.

And here are a couple Kari's LOs using my designs:

All About Amanda

Like I said in a previous post, I'm honoring each of my CT gals with a special freebie on my blog. If I were an amazing designer, I'd honor them by creating a mini kit, but I'm not that good (lol) so I have created a special Brag Book out of one of Amanda's favorite kits of mine! Today only, you can download the About A Boy Brag Book from Scrapper's Zone and KJOI for FREE!!! Here's a preview:

AND all of Amanda's favorites are on sale at 50% off. . . Are you ready for this? You can pick up About A Boy, Chocolate Kisses, Swell News, and all my Template Packs for half price!!! Only at Scrapper's Zone and KJOI Studios.

And now, let's get to know Amanda a little bit better:

Amanda lives in central Pennsylvania! She's been married to Chris for 7 years and has 2 boys, Zach (6) and Aaron (15 mos). She began began paper scrapping 4 years ago when her family relocated becuase she couldn't find another job outside the home, and she needed something to stay busy. She's always been fairly crafty and could preserve our family memories too. It was fun! It tapered off because it was not fun hauling out all her scrapping supplies during nap times then putting it all away since Zach was 2 when she started. She discovered digital scrapbooking in July 2007. She loves it! She's always loved graphic arts and likes scrapbooking. Now, she can combine the 2. And now, she can just hit save, and walk away if the boys need something, so she gets more scrapping done becuase she can scrap in little snippets of time if she has to.

Thanks for all you do Amanda!!

Some of Amanda's LOs:
