1 Grandma, 2 Chores, and 3 Free Templates

I've been a busy little daisy this week... After Thanksgiving, I knew I needed to get to work on some scrappy things for my scrappy fans. :-) So, here is what I've made...

CLICK THE PICTURES TO SEE THE REST OF THE IMAGES

1 Grandma theme chipboard album - - PERFECT gift for a mom, mother-in-law, or any Grandma who loves her Grandkids and is loved by them! (the colors are in memory of my mom who loved purple, blue, and green)

And I made 2 cute chore books. I was thinking the red white and black reminded me of diet Coke (which I love and can no longer drink because of a medication I take). So, one is in the colors of diet Coke and the other is in the colors of summer and flowers. Lots of gems and ribbons abound! :-)

I hope everyone is having a great start to this holiday season. I am still scraping up the funds to get my daughter to the Holiday Bowl in San Diego. Every completed auction is going towards her trip - - she and her high school band have been working so hard. They have practiced at all hours of the day and night, learning their music, keeping up with their other classes. I am so proud of her! She'll be spending her 16th birthday at the Holiday Bowl!

Thanks for looking at my blog and for your kind comments. Happy Scrapping!

3 Free Digi Templates

Hi there Scrappy Friends!

It's a cloudy day here in Arizona and I've been sleepy all day. I'm loving this weather - - it's such a nice change from the HOT HOT HOT. :-)

Here are some new digi templates for your digi scrapping pleasure! And for those who are paper scrappers, use these as sketches for designing your layouts. That's the process for me. I sketch the designs in my notebook, then I create them digitally...

Happy Scrapping!

Good reviews! :-)

I wanted to share this note I received this morning... When I created these chore books I thought they were a good idea that could help other families. This is an email from a satisfied customer:

Dece,

Received your parcel yesterday. Thank you so much! Everything is great. My son was so excited to get his own set he immediately started working the cards! These sure have made a difference in our morning routine getting on task to get out the door for school. And I'm not having to repeat myself over and over! Thanks for making life just a little bit less stressful!

Traci Rader

This really made my day today (as I've got all 3 kids home, the chaos abounding! LOL). Thank you Traci and all of the other Moms who have purchased my chore books. I have one up for auction that ends tomorrow and I'm working on a new one. I also take orders for specialty books - - colors, patterns, etc.

Have a happy Scrappy Day! And THANK YOU to all the Veterans who have served and who serve to keep our Nation free! :-)

Digital Scrapbooking Day! New Free Fall Templates and Cute Chore Extras!

As promised, I'm updating my scrappy blog with scrappy goodies of both the paper and digi variety. Did you know it's International Digital Scrapbooking Day? Well, it is! :-) YAY! I started digi-scrapping when I had a tiny infant and no energy to get all of my scrappy goodies out of the closet but still had a desire to do something creative. Plus, I love the process of design layout.

I had a request for extra chores for a couple of Pre-School Books, so I thought I would share the results. I love doing custom work, whether it's designing custom chore books or paper piecings, mini-albums, etc. With Christmas coming up, let me help you get a Grandma's Brag Book done where all you have to do is add the photos! :-) Email me for details!

Fall Inspired Digi Template and Chores, chores, chores

It's been a very busy week and I'm glad it's finally the weekend...
Time to rest, recharge the battery, enjoy some time with my children and dear husband...

Of course, there are chores to be done. Here are helps that I've made for getting the chores done and keeping you (and your children, whether they're tweens, teens, or adults!) focused on the tasks to be done everyday and in every room.

A Free DigiTemplate and Previews!

Wednesday... Whew! Half-way through the week! YAY!

I have been working hard on getting more chore books made. I've had a few requests for 2 books at one time, but that is really tough when I'm chasing my 2 year old around. So, I set aside the tear bears and worked on chore books since I've been home from vacation (which had some fun moments but left me even more exhausted than I was!).

These books will be going up for auction unless I get a buyer before-hand... Take a look:


These are the same papers I made my girls' chore books in at the beginning of the summer. I am in love with the purple, green, and blue palette. This would be great for a teen or an adult.



I used a lot of gems and bling for this red, white, and black book. I was inspired by the high contrast of the color scheme. Again, I think it would be great for a teen or an adult. It looks really sharp!

And, I haven't made a digi layout template in a long time, but I've been in the mood, so I openined up PSE and went to work. I hope you like it. :-) Oops, I just looked at the preview and it doesn't show an outline around the layout. It is a 12 x 12 with a white background. I said it's been a long time since I've done this! LOL

I hope you're having a great week! Thanks for your kind comments. :-)

Happy Scrapping,

Link me up! All the auction links...

Hello out there!

I have some cute pieces up for auction right now. I especially like the little witch - it makes me think of my Hannah and every time she has been anything that was remotely "spooky" she was much more CUTE than scary. If you look through some of my very old posts here, you may see my first digital scrapbook page of Hannah as a cutie pie witch. So cute! LOL

If you have a moment, please take a look at the auctions below! Thank you so much!

Too Cute to Spook

I know you're probably like me and have a whole hard drive full, not to mention those boxes of photos that are still sitting there, waiting to be scrapbooked. Or they're waiting to be labeled... Oh, I used to be "good". I would get my photos back and write the who, what, when, where, and why on the envelope. But that's when I scrapbooked regularly. Those were the good times, before the digital age...

Now my children's memories are on hard drives waiting to be printed.

Or they're in envelopes of haphazardly printed things when snapfish had a sale.

So, I made this cute little bear with an easy-enough title, "Too Cute to Spook". Everyone has a picture of their little cutie at Halloween that needs a title like that!! :-) (I know *I* have a dozen at least!)

Too Cute to Spook - http://www.ebay.com/itm/140616404789

I have additional books and items going up over the next few days, so please check "other items by this seller" when you're on my auctions. Thank you for taking a look! :-)

Happy Scrapping!

Bears have Arrived

Hello and happy fall! I think it might actually stay below 100'F here today. One can hope!

Auction Ending this morning:

Chore Book in purple palette - http://www.ebay.com/itm/140607970327?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649

I quickly listed a new 12 x 12 Scrapbook Layout called "Sweet" that has Fluffy Tear Bears on a layout in pinks, yellow, green, and lavender with flowers, gems, and ribbon.

EDITED: Here is the link for the newly listed Teen/Adult Chore book I just listed:


http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=140610989739

I will have another Teen/Adult Chore Book up this week (*edited, see above) and I'm working on more tear-bears and a Pre-School Chore Book. I am wanting to put myself into an Autumn mood, so I'm breaking out the fall papers, cardstock, and ribbon, so you'll be sure to see that reflected in my offerings in the next weeks. If there is something specific you are looking for, please drop me a note and let me know so I can design with you in mind! :-)

Thank you so much for your bids and interest in my work. The work I'm doing is helping pay for my daughter to go to the Holiday Bowl in December with her school Marching Band, so these are very dear to me. :-)

Take care and happy scrapping!

New Chore Book!

It takes me a lot longer to get things done than it used to...

Does that make me old? LOL

This morning I have listed a new Chore Book on ebay:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/140607970327?ssPageName=STRK:MESELX:IT&_trksid=p3984.m1555.l2649

It is in the same color palette as my daughters' books - purples, greens, blues, browns and has lots of fun sparkles and details. Please take a moment to check it out.

I think it turned out cute -- what do you think? I'd love some comments!

Chore Books are Coming...

New Chore Books are coming!

I am currently in the process of cutting, gluing, and decorating a new group of Chore Books to sell on eBay. Here are pics of my daughters' Chore Books that I made at the beginning of the summer...




I will be making a "Pre-School" age chore book and a School (Teen to Adult) age Chore Book this week.

AND be on the lookout for furry critters. I hear there are bears lurking around these parts!
