And, we came swooshing in to April.  I was working on the kit, and couldn't decide- rain, or April Fool's theme. I figured rain would carry us further than an April Fool's theme.  Maybe next year!

Well, I did not do a kit about Chocolate Cinnamon Bears.  I really ought to. I mean I have this total obsession with the things.  Even worse, my kids love them.  Why am I even talking about them. Oh year, that would be because I am sitting here eating them as I am doing my blog post.  I would share them with you, but ... the internet hasn't advanced that much... YET.

SO, maybe this post should really be called: I got the laundry done.  It isn't such a catchy title, although it might make you feel better hearing how I only THOUGHT about getting the laundry done. I will be working on that one late tonight.  Alright, this is getting depressing thinking about the chores list I have awaiting me.  SO, we'll go to the fun kit I have for this week:
You Make Me Smile.  I'll give you a hint, it is bright, happy, and does not have any laundry in it.

I have a fun freebie on my facebook page that coordinates with this.


I also have Scribbles and some CU Clusters up in the store a well:



AND for the Pocket Life Scrappers, Deanna has created some amazing cards and clusters that coordinate with my New Year Glitz kit, and Wintergreen Kit:





 Be sure to stop by the forum, as well. I have my Color Challenge up!



and a little sample of the above mini kit in action!

Hope you have a great week!

Okay, I am down to two weeks until I pick my son up.  I can't help but smile!  He has grown up a lot over these last two years, and I am proud of his sacrifice.  I will say that it is kind of difficult watching them grow up and leave the nest. I realize that, for me, I may never have a true empty nest, but it is difficult dealing with all the changes that occur as they grow up and move. Okay, not going to lament that. 

I created Poppy Fields as a kind of remembrance kit.  I think we all have things we would like to remember.  So, first off, some of the layouts I created:

It's Friday! I am not sure about the rest of you, but it has kind of been a long week. It is almost the end of the month, too.  Time flies when you are stressed out, overbooked, and have a lot of kids?  I am so excited, though, because my son who has been serving a church mission will be finishing up soon. We are to the point that we are counting the weeks.  Excited can't begin to describe what we are feeling here.  If you have noticed that I have had a lot of "happy" kits come out recently, this might explain it :)

For my latest kit, I figured that it had been a while since I had done something with neutrals. So, I stuck with a softer palette, and theme.  Spread Your Wings came out of that. This is a versatile kit that can be used with just about anything.  I even scrapped a few pictures to show it off.

This time of year is so hectic and crazy.  I like to think everyone else is calmly going about their business, but in reality, we are all in a mad rush.  Maybe that should be the next kit name? Mad Rush?  It totally seems appropriate.  I have TONS of new stuff up. Most of it is CU, although I do have a pretty kit mixed in there.

I also have lots of freebies.  BE AWARE!!  Every day on facebook I am giving away a new freebie. It is in thanks to you!  We all need a little nice in our life, and sometimes it is harder to see it than others.  Then there are those really dark days where the light at the end of the tunnel turns out to be a train.  So be sure to stop by, and grab a freebie created just for you.  I will post the Day 1 freebie, which you might have missed.  The freebie link will only be available till Friday! Then head over to my facebook page and grab Day 2 over there.  Alright, enough jabbering, and on with the visual display of loveliness.






and my very pretty Personal Use kit:




You guessed it, the freebie I have for you coordinates with my Give Thanks kit.  So here is Day 1:

Remember, this link will be disabled on Friday, November 8.

I also have a CU freebie for you. My newsletter will have a different CU freebie, as well :)  What can I say, I have been on a Commercial Use kick.

Hope you have a great day!
