Another kit, another Freebie!!

Hi, everyone!
Doug and I returned from Colorado on Saturday night, and we're almost back into the groove of reality! The Rocky Mountains are spectacular! The weather was great, and we had a great time.
Doug attended a conference on Biochar, and I hung out and did some designing. The conference was all that Doug had hoped that it would be, and he learned a lot. The ideas are busting out at the seams of his brain!!

I have this new little kit that I wanted to share-it's called Sugar-n-Spice and is great for your girly-girl photos (or even photos of very confident, macho men-lol). This kit is on sale at my stores for 35% off until the end of August.

This Paper Pack, which coordinates beautifully is free for one week only at my stores.
I hope that you enjoy this little gift, and would love for you to leave some love!

To snag the kit and the freebie, click on my store blinkies on the left. :)

August already!
Here in Wisconisn, we're having beautiful spring weather. Yup, spring weather. Not enough heat for the peppers or tomatoes, or to jump in the pool. Just lovely spring weather. I don't think it has been over 80 degrees for more than a handful of days. And very little rain. The poor corn crops are all dried and spikey.
My daughter and I took a wonderful Mother/Daughter long weekend mini-vacation. We drove to Galena, IL and shopped in all of the girly shops, had pedicures and went to the Field of Dreams. It was so fun and relaxing. I love that my daughter and I are close and that we have become friends.

I have a new, fun mini kit in my stores...It is called Doodals, and I just love it. It is only $1.99, and is 35% off for the month of August. Doodals Mini Kit contains 4 textured papers, 4 painted flower doodles, 3 glitter flowers and one glitter leaf and a jewel for the flower centers. Here it is. You can snag this kit at Sum Scrapper or at
Scraps with a Mouse for only $1.29!!







Of course, I made a freebie for you from the kit :)
And here is the link for it at Sum Scrapper. I sure hope that you enjoy using it. And please leave some love.

Now, onto another subject! I'm in need of a finch therapist!
We have a goldfinch that has made it his mission to get into the house. So he constantly flies up to the window in the sunspace and bangs on it. We taped up magazine pages to deter him, (and what a lovely look that is, too), but it hasn't worked. We have a birdbath, gazing ball and bird feeder for him, but all he loves to do is bang on the window and kiss his reflection in the gazing ball.
Like I said, we need a finch therapist for him!

Happy Thursday!
I wanted to show you a page that I made with my Beneath the Sky kit...
This is Michael, my son, setting up his tent. I was in the dry comfort of our pop-up camper (vintage orange and brown 70's style), while he set up his tent during a sudden drizzle. Thankfully, it was the only rain of the weekend. We had 5 campsites for the entire family--all of the Uncles, Aunts and cousins. I have a lot more photos to scrap, but it'll be easy with this kit! I just love it-and yes, I know I may be a bit biased! :)








I do have another Digi-Scrapping Freebie for you, and I will get to that in a moment. But first, let me show you Summer Blush that is in my stores now. And, it's on sale for 35% off!!
I also have a set of matching QP's in my stores...I just love them, and although they are not on sale, they are a great price-4 for $2.99! Here is a peek..










They have plenty of room for journaling, and can be resized to an 8" square for printing at home.

Be sure to click on one of my store blinkies at the left to snag these! Or go to
Scraps with a Mouse or Sum Scrapper
Ok, without any further delay, here is the Freebie that I promised:





I think it is such a sweet page, and perfect for any type of photo, and there's room on the plaque for journaling. Sometimes I think that as Digital Scrappers, we lose sight of the journaling, but it is so important! All of those little things that you're sure you'll remember...guess what? They do slip away and are forgotten. So please try to remember to add more to your layouts than photos and elements...keep those memories fresh with journaled reminders!
Enough of the lectures! You can either go to Sum Scrapper for the freebie, or you can download it
here. Please leave some love!
Oh, and Scraps with a Mouse will be having their grand opening in August, and we have tons of fun planned, so make sure to keep checking in!
