Scrappy Doodle Kits

On another note ................

TGIF!!!!!! I am so glad it's Friday!! Is that horrible or what? My weeks are just flying by, which is sometimes a good thing, sometimes a bad thing. I sometimes feel like life is passing me by and I'm just standing still there watching the events of my life come and go and I don't really get to ENJOY them as much as I want to. Does anyone else feel that way?

Well, on another note, we have less than 2 weeks until the first airing of our DiSc Talk Radio shows!! I'm soooo excited about it, I can hardly wait!! We're adding a fun area of the site where we'll post silly Q&As from our interviewees....... things like What's your favorite color?...... stuff like that. You know, things you might want to know about your favorite digi "celebs" but you normally wouldn't find out about because you're not part of their inner circle.

Let's see...... what else do we have going on?

We will have a one week Memorial Day sale going on next week as Scrappy Doodle Kits. Not quit sure what the sale will be.......... but it's sure to be a doozy!!!

Well, I hope everyone has a fun and safe Friday! Not sure what I'll be doing, but I'm sure it will be both fun and safe Ü

Happy Mother's Day

Happy Mother's Day everyone! I wanted to share what I just finished creating for my grandmother. As you might know, my grandfather passed away exactly 1 month ago today and I tried to think of a gift for my grandmother that would bring a smile to her face. What better way to do that than through photos! Bringing back good memories always does the trick.


So, I bought a 4x4 turquoise accordian album by All My Memories and I also purchased the Flea Market Chic Album designs by Shabby Princess with the 6x6 premade pages ~ coordinated perfectly!

I inserted my pictures that I wanted to use into the pages, printed them and cut out. It was very simple to do and I know my grandmother will enjoy it! Check it out.

Check out the pages I created with SB's beautiful papers!

Another week.......

Another week has come and gone! Lots was accomplished, but yet lots to still do.

First off, the DiSc Talk Radio grand opening chat event was a big hit on Wed. We had a ton of fun and got to meet some new people! If you missed the chat, don't worry, we're planning on having one at least every month, with lots of specials, games and prizes. Also, the first designer to be on our show is Rhonna Farrer!!!! HORRAY!!! I'm so excited to get the radio show off the ground and out into your desktop! So thrilling!!!!

Also, on another note, we've received notice that the PCCrafts Convention dates have been changed. Below is a letter from Elissa regarding why and when the new dates are:

Many of you have heard that I have a house fire in March. We are
still not in our home and this seems like it is going to be a bit
before I get to return to my house with the girls.
Due to this I have decided to move the dates of the convention to
the Spring of 2007. This will give us MORE time to prepare a BIGGER
and BETTER convention!
Please do not be disappointed! We WILL be having the convention….
Just a few months later then planed.
Please stay on this list and post to your friends, chat boards and
email groups that the PCCRAFTS CONVNETION is ON!! And WILL be having
our convention just changing the dates. LOCATION will stay the same.
I will be listing the NEW dates Mother's Day Weekend.
Registration will begin July 1st.
AGAIN if you are interested in teaching or helping plan this event
in any way please email me at info@PCCRAFTS.com
I do have a list of helpers and teachers…. STAY POSTED !!!! I will
be emailing you over the weekend to firm up plans.
Again thanks for your support in this event!
I look forward to meeting will all of you.

On a side note, I ran across these photos early this morning and wanted to share them with you. These were taken last spring when my good friend David and I went to Washington DC for the day. It was peak season for these Cherry Blossom trees and it was during the Cherry Blossom festival. There were so many people there and the trees were just magnificent. It was a beautiful day that day as well and we walked around to all the monuments and went through an art museum which was amazing in itself.

Anyways, my upcoming kit, Sweet Pea reminds me of the beauty of these trees.

Welcome our CTM Additions!

Who will be interviewed?? Good question!

Would you like to find out who will be interviewed first and what our first show will be about? Make sure you make it over to DiSc Talk Radio on Wed May 10th at 10PM EST! We'll have games, prizes and lots of fun!

Paying attention

I never really paid attention to yellow roses before, but I have to say that I love my yellow rose bush on the side of my house. I planted it two years ago after putting the lattice work up for privacy on our front porch and it has grown so beautifully since then. And I'm very proud of myself, cause I don't have a green thumb! So if you don't have a green thumb either, I would highly recommend getting rose bushes, because they are VERY low maintenance Ü

On a side note, I have a very exciting announcement that I'll make in just a little bit. You won't want to miss it!

Plus, the DSD May Mega Kit is a HUMUNGOUS kit that you'll surely not want to miss! It has such great colors and fantastic designs by all of the very creative designers at DSD. Be sure to download yours on May 1st! You can view my portion of it below.

A little blonde humor

Thought this was cute, so I wanted to share it with you!

Cough syrup

The pharmacist walks into the store to find a guy leaning heavily against a wall. He asks the blonde clerk "What's with that guy over there by the wall?"

The blonde clerk responds: "Well, he came in here this morning to get something for his cough. I couldn't find the cough syrup, so I gave him an entire bottle of laxative."

The pharmacist yells: "You idiot! You can't treat a cough with a laxative!"

The blonde clerk responds, "Of course you can! Look at him, he's afraid to cough
