November 1st - only 55 more days

Say it isn't so....Christmas will be here before we know it. I actually bought my first Christmas gift yesterday. Shhhhh. don't tell BF, it's an Ohio State shirt. hehe I get him at least 1 each year. Well it was 50% off. Can't beat that! Especially if they keep winning.

I got to play around with Fantacy's new kit last night. I love her stuff so much that I get really paranoid about what I turn out with it. I did 3 and this one I really liked. The other 2 will have to be tweaked. That's my niece Addi. I'm so excited I'm going to see them this weekend. That means lots more photos to scrap. Anyway go check out Fantacy's new kit. You can get it in papers, elements or complete kit.



Here's a 2 page set I did for the November Theme- Family, pages over at Scrappers Daily Dose with Nov. sponsor Michelle Pieters Summer Sunset collection. The photos aren't the greatest, but it was a good time and family is all you got sometimes. But I really enjoyed the kit and plan to do a few more pages with it.

Saturday is National Digital Scrapbooking Day. Yeah we got our own day! Now what does that mean???? SHOPPING!!!! And chats, and challenges and freebies!!!!! So I've compliled a list of things going on in the digi world. I won't be at too many of them Sat. since I'm going up north to see the kids (yeah!!!) but I want you all to be there for me (shop for me too! lol)

I'm sure there's more going on. Check you favorite site to see what they're doing and then pop into a site you're not familiar with and do something new and different. It's a great way to meet new friends.

No one had freebies up yet and it's getting close to the time I need to leave for work. I have to figure out this freebie thing and how I can make it work for everyone.

Until next time, scrap happy!
