And Then There Were Two...

Well we are down to our last two layouts for the calendars. I will have a cover page for you too, so keep that in mind...Here is the November layout. It is simple and I left it plain so that you can add your fall photos and embellish them with the kits of your choice! Personally, I will probably use three photos and put them in the lighter blocks and use some great fall papers for the darker blocks. But the choice is yours for sure. I have got to get busy and play catch up on my own layouts! Have a great weekend!

Last Day of the Contest!!!

OK, I dont want to confuse anyone....here is the latest ad from Pretty Scrappy. A huge thanks to Shannon for her great job on this!

I Digi-Dare You! (I mean I dare all my digi-friends)

That is just my way of saying i dare all my digi friends! Ok, on with Proverbs! We have come too far to stop now! I have ben so busy with getting things set up in the store at Pretty Scrappy, but I do not want to neglect the most important things... the eternal things. I have a motto I live by since having had cancer... If it doesn't have eternal value it is not that important. But this, this is important. Lets look at the Proverbs 31:29 woman. 'Many women have done noble work, but you have surpassed them all!' Oh me...........its going to be another convicting post i can tell! I have watched two great movies this week and I would recommend them to you too. One was an older movie, Facing the Giants and the other one, is at theaters now...Fireproof. Great Christian films, done in a way that hits you right where you are. There are lessons for everyone in these two films. And so, that brings me back to this Proverbs 31 woman. What we need are more women who are willing to set their wants aside and seek what God wants in our lives. What a selfish nation we have become. The challenge is this, are you willing to seek the Lord and see what He wants you to do in your life? Uh oh, preaching to the choir here...Am I ? I wish I could say with all confidence, yes. But the truth is, more often than not, I want to do my thing not God's. So, this is a joint challenge. I will seek to try to make sure the work I do is of noble character. God knows my heart, but sometimes my flesh gets in the way. Let's work on this together, ok? His, Teri

Going a Little Bugsy?

This is a cute kit from Jaydensmama called "Bugsy". This kit can be found at Pretty Scrappy. Click either preview to go to the store. I love the retro colors she used. I had some photos of my grandson and a nephews little boy from last week when I took them to the park and I think the colors and the kit just went together. This is a great chance to show how you can use a photograph that has some of the kits colors in it, but dont be afraid to try to add a color that is not present in the kit, see how the red just pops! Any way, wanted to show you these layouts and I will be back to add the QP's for you. Hope you have voted today! His, Teri

Here is a little goodie for you! I will post the other one in the next few days!

I'm Up and Running!

I got my things up and going at Pretty Scrappy and I am so excited. I want to thank all the gals over there who helped me set up shop! I am going to show you a sneak peek of the kits I have created! And without further ado, here are my latest endeavors! Drum roll please! Ta Da.............

This is my very first kit "Holidays are Here" and I had so much fun making it. I love the little lights and the great colors of this kit. I hope you will like it too! It will always be special to me because it was my first one. I like the fact that even though it was designed for the Holidays, I made it with the thought that people could use it for non Holiday scrapping also! I will have a freebie real soon with this cute little kit! And moving on to the second kit....

This is my kit "Thankful Heart". It was with that theme in mind that I created it. I feel so blessed and thankful for all that the Lord has done for me and continues to do. I hope to share his blessings and grace with others through my designs. I would love to hear your feedback on what you think about my kits! And to let you see the quality of my work, here is a little sample just for you! A QP using my kit "Thankful Heart" Please let me see what you make with it!

I also have put the alpha tiles and the number tiles together in one package AND have lowered the price. Click on the preview to go to the store. And come back soon for some more goodies! His, Teri
