Before You...

So I am still working on the farm kit. It may be Saturday sometime before I can post it, tomorrow may be a bit optimistic :) But it is still coming up!

I haven't forgotten the award I received from Scrafurple. I appreciate it so much, but just don't have time right now to really participate as I should and pass it on. :( I will tell you, please visit my blog subscription list in the right sidebar, it is full of amazing designers. It is so hard to single anyone out, I am just enamored of so many people's talents. But I do want to post her website and the award I received:

Scrafurple's site: words.life.scrap
Be sure to check her out, she has some really cute wordart freebies up, very worth a look.
And the award:


And last but certainly not least!
Today's freebie is in honor of my sister, Kelley (the older of my two younger sisters). She lives out of town, but we talk on the phone most days, she is a pretty cool little sister :)

Anyway, it's her 23rd birthday today and she is a complete Twilight fanatic, so I thought this quote from Edward in New Moon was appropriate for the occasion:

Check back tomorrow, another wordart freebie!

A Smile a Day

Ah well I'm in a bit of a hurry today. I did see the wonderful award that Scrafurple left me, but don't have time right now to do anything about it right this minute. Will get to that hopefully this evening, tomorrow morning at the latest. I soooo appreciate it and am absolutely flattered to be included with some of the talent on her list (Nicole and Mel to point out a couple amazing designers). So I will be back for that.

I found my missing wood-burnt wordart, so here ya go:

I'll be back tonight or tomorrow with more :) Later!

You Are My Sunshine

Ah, I'm feeling lazy today, might spend it in my robe!
I am looking for a new part-time job, blah. I lost mine back in January and have been kinda dilly-dallying about getting a new one. But we need the paycheck! My last job was a work-at-home one and I would LOVE to get another like it, but so far I'm having no luck. :(

In scrapping news, my farm kit is still coming along nicely. I anticipate posting it Friday or Saturday. And then I'll get busy on my contribution to the Precious Convoy Spring Time Blog Train. Yay! :)

Also, I was asked via email if I will do requests and my answer is: sure. If you're familiar with my stuff and think I can do a good job, I'm flattered really. My email is listed in the right sidebar, just shoot me a question and I'll get back to you ASAP. I will try to have real quick turnaround.

Today's freebie:

Apache Blessing

Ok, I believe (I'm pretty sure..) I got this little blessing out of a Chicken Soup for the Soul book, probably one relating to romance or couples. I went through a phase where I devoured all those books (at least the ones that applied to me - I shied away from anything relating to mothers or families.. sigh). While some of the stories are admittedly corny, I find myself tearing up at at least one or two a book. At least, haha.

Tomorrow another one I wood-burned.

Children Reinvent the World for You

So I haven't gotten a darn thing done on my kit. Still have wordart to spare, so keep checking back. I plan to have the farm kit done sometime in the next week or so, with enough time for me to get my pretty pastel submission to the Precious Convoy Spring Time Blog Train (blinkie/link in right sidebar) done for March 22nd. So keep watch for those goodies.

Today's wordart:

And a bonus wood wordart, using Atomic Cupcake's burnt wood action, because I missed yesterday:

Check back tomorrow, it's a doozie.

Oops

Check back tomorrow, I'll make it worth your while.

You're Something Special to Me

So I finally had a touch of inspiration for my next kit. I think I'm going to do something farm-ish. No idea why that came to me, but it's a good idea, so I'll run with it. I would like to claim I will have it done by Monday, but am unsure right now what we've got goin' on this weekend, so I will just let you know more as I do.

Also I need to scrap! I want to put together pages from the concert I went to with my sisters! And way more, I have more pictures than are imaginable and have hopes to get many of them scrapped. No deadline, maybe that's my problem! LOL!

Ok, here is today's freebie, it's the last of the George Straits:

I have more country music wordart saved up, but I think I will veer off course and give you something different for awhile. Tomorrow I'll have one that's good for kids.

A Love As True As Mine

Today's is a late/short post, I had a lazy morning :)

Here is today's freebie. I haven't even gotten started yet on a new kit, but I do have an idea in mind. I need to get back to scrapping myself, designing is so addicting I tend to neglect my own scrapbooking!

LINK EXPIRED

*And as soon as I posted that one, I looked at it and decided to change it. I moved the bottom words around so it makes more of a right angle, I'm imagining a picture in there. I'm leaving the original, but here is my newer updated one as well:

Check back tomorrow!

Our Love is Unconditional

Omigosh! My wordart from Saturday was listed on IkeaGoddess's blog yesterday. You should've seen my happy dance! She was one of the first digi-scrap blogs I found and the very first one I subscribed to when I discovered the magic of Google Reader lol.

And..
Thank you so much to everyone who commented both here and on 4Shared, I appreciate your kind words so much. I really can't express how good it makes me feel to see people downloading my work and leaving appreciative comments. Warms my heart, really :)

Today's wordart freebie is from a George Strait song. Yes, the country-music-themed wordart continues lol, and will for a bit longer. I can't help but be inspired by the music I surround myself with. Sunday's was a sweet waltzy one by Lee Ann Womack and Mark Chesnutt. Today is a classic by the King of Country. I love George Strait. A lot. :)

LINK EXPIRED

So I have a few more inspired by Mr. Strait songs through the next few days. Check back, even if you're not a country fan they are pretty sweet. :)

Dungarees

Ta-da!


DOWNLOAD ALPHA

DOWNLOAD PAPERS 1

DOWNLOAD PAPERS 2

DOWNLOAD ELEMENTS

Whew! haha

I had thought about releasing it through the week in pieces, and eventually I think I will go that route, but right now I'm still too psyched to draw it out lol. And I don't know when I will start my next freebie kit, but definitely check back for my daily wordart freebies in the meantime. And if you do any layouts with my kits, I would LOVE to see them (please? lol).

Til tomorrow :)

Make Memories With Me

Still at work on the Dungarees kit. Am really hopeful I'll get it out tomorrow. Am debating between posting it all at once (like I did the Pajama Party kit) or taking a cue from fellow digi-scrap-bloggers and releasing it over the course of a few days.. Haven't come to a decision yet, but we'll all find out tomorrow haha!

Today's freebie:

Check back tomorrow, I'll have a kit for you! Or at least a piece of one LOL.
