Krystal Hartley MSA Featured Designer for July



Krystal has designed the coolest Mini Kit for the Flourish Newsletter from MyScrapbookArt.com

subscribers to this newsletter will get this Mini kit for free. You had to be signed up before July 1st though. So make sure you sign up for future newsletters as they feature a new designer each month. Anywho...I adore this little kit!

PS....don't let the label fool you...it is NOT at SSD! So don't go looking for it there as you will NOT find it there. (not yet anyways!)

Krystal Hartley Guest at TheDigiChick

Krystal the featured Guest at The Digi Chick for July!! Look at the kit she has available only there!


She will be getting around A LOT this month actually! Watch for her at My Scrapbook Art-MSA, Digishoptalk-DST, and TDC. Plus her usual home at SSD! July will be rocking with Krystal Hartley!

Ettes & Co. Wonderful World




The Ettes have released another new HUGE Collection! This one is called Wonderful World. Lots of great Ettes things in this one too. I just had to use that Earth. I went round and round on my layout. Created a few of them until I found one I was totally happy with! LOL Sorry Fayette! heehee But this is the one! I love it! Zander was sitting on a rock down by the creek and I just put on top of the world instead! LOL Fitting for him for sure!



Kristin Aagard-GP Spotlight Designer for July!



My Cyber Sister, Kristin Aagard, is the Designer spotlight at GottaPixel.net this month! She has a free collab kit called Sea Wonder that you collect over the entire month of July available. Its super cute. (as usual) If you don't want to wait to collect it...you can always join the Pixel Club membership and get it all at one time plus loads of other free things too!

ScrapbookGraphics-IO Travel

Ok... I know I loved up last month SBG Mega kit but seriously....THIS ONE is a total must have. The colors are great the elements are awesome and who doesn't TRAVEL daily?! I loved this kit. The papers are so awesome I couldn't figure out which one I wanted to use first. I seriously changed my paper selection several times on this layout. Yummy!
Grab it here or at least go look at it! and you know its on sale!
This is my lil Sis and I last weekend on our Fiestaware trip! We seriously had a blast. We talked for 8 hours there and back. I needed that. Sometimes life gets in the way and you don't get a chance to get into the little details of life. Well, I try. We talk almost daily! LOL It's so awesome how we have become more like Friends than Sisters. If you would have asked me 20 years ago if I would be like this I would have punched you in the mouth! LOL I HATED MY SISTER GROWING UP. But I adore her more than ever now. Funny how God works huh!?

Dudes and dudettes, you must know, I am totally excited for this mini trip. I can hardly wait. Again, I know some of you don't want to hear it but I can't hardly keep it to myself right now.

I have made a promise to Shelley that we will get together within a years time too. Just have to get the finances around. Maybe when I hit the jackpot?

What swim suit are you?

You Are a One Piece Swimsuit
You are a bit conservative and traditional.
And you are not at the beach to put your body on display!

You are a low maintenance person. You like to look good, but you're not vain.
Your taste tends to be sophisticated. You always opt for classy over trashy.

Stupid Law in Providence, RI

oh my freaking gosh....you have got to be kidding me: READ THIS LAME LAW:

According to law, no store in Providence is allowed to sell a toothbrush and toothpaste to the same customer on Sundays. Mouthwash and a toothbrush is fine, though!

WHAT?? what could the reason possibly be??? This was a quote in a Digi Store newsletter and I was like, oh come on...so I had to go research it. Weird!!

Poor Zander

We have watched Jon & Kate Plus 8 for years. Since the beginning really. Zander LOVES that show. Well, tonight while we were watching the "new" show they announced they were splitting up. He looked at me with the saddest eyes I have ever seen on him. I just sorta laughed at him to keep the mood light. But inside I was fighting back tears. Just as I am doing now typing this. He said, How sad that they have come this? What??? He's 10. What 10 y.o. has the mind set to ask such a question or to even recognise the magnitude of what happened? Should I be worried? Or proud? I have raised an extremely sensitive child and I think that's pretty cool. Both my boys are sensitive children. And I love that about them. They can be tender and soft but still be BOYS. Man...I have done a wonderful job so far! I just pray those poor Gosselin children grow up healthy, happy, and strong mentally. Wow...wouldn't want to be in their shoes for NOTHING. I feel soooo sad for them. All of them.

Digiridooscraps.com

Just stumbled upon this new site. I guess it opened up June 5th? Huh? I have NOT looked around here so I am not saying anything good or bad about it...just sayin'!
The slogan caught my eye...reminded me of Shari Boggs new business name. Things that make you go hmmmm. I've been working with Shari for well over a couple months with this name. Co inky dink for sure.

Arisu Template

So I bought this template and I have been scared to death to try it! LOL I finally just decided that I wanted to do it up and give it to my BFF's Nephew (whose wedding I just shot) and his new bride. I LOVE IT! There are 73 pictures on here! Can you believe it?! When I bought it you could get either the template or the action. I have no clue how to use actions so...I went with the template. Now I am thinking I should have got the actions after spending HOURS uploading those pictures and resizing them. UGH...Why do I do this to myself!? LOL I hope they love it for the amount of time it took to create. I am going to print it 8x10 and figure out something to put on the bottom edge so they can hang it up. Gotta get my thinking cap on.

Strawberry picking







I went strawberry picking for my first time ever on Wednesday! we had a ball. We picked 8 pounds and I am embarrassed to say...they are ALMOST GONE! Zander went nuts and ate a ton of them! LOL but better them than chips, right! He was so awesome. He helped me cut them ALL too. I washed and de topped and he cut them with the pampered chef slicer. Took us a while but we got it done! I have the best kids ever.

Krystal Hartley-Shabby Baby

Well Krystal has teamed up with Misty Cato again to bring you Shabby Baby! Here's a gift I did for a friend of my sisters. They just had their second son a couple weeks ago. This kit will out tomorrow morning or really late tonight at SSD and remember, all new kits are 20% off on Saturdays ONLY!

What's your gift?

Your Gift is Sensitivity
You are easily moved, and you have a strong emotional reaction to almost everything.
Your sensitivity helps you get a lot out of life. You appreciate every moment more.

It's hard for you to divorce yourself from your feelings. You notice every little thing around you.
You're the type of person who finds empathy and compassion easy.
