Blogging…

Helllooooooo out theeeeeeere…….

Did I just hear an echo????

Not sure if anyone’s still reading this, I haven’t blogged in ages… I just don’t have time or feel inspired to write much lately. But I have taken on a position on Kristin Cronin-Barrow’s blog as a weekly writer so if you’d like to join me there every Thursday I’d love to “see” you there!

I will be doing a weekly post about journaling, and I’m hoping to really improve my journaling abilities with it myself. Usually I’m lucky if I even put a date on my layouts… lol.

The first Thursday of each month will be a journaling challenge.

Second Thursday will be filled with journaling prompts to help you along with the challenge.

On the third Thursday of the month I’ll show you my layout for the challenge.

And finally on the fourth Thursday of each month I’ll make you up a little journaling freebie

So I hope that if anyone’s still subscribed to my blog, that you will join me every Thursday at KCB’s blog!

Misc Scrapping News

Hey everyone! How was your Halloween/Digital Scrapbooking Day weekend?

Our Halloween was fun, except for the part where my DD got home from trick or treating barely able to talk and coughing… then woke up in the middle of the night with a fever! So yesterday was spent taking care of her, poor thing. Then I went to my first day of work in 4.5 yrs! I will be working part-time/occasionally at a local flower shop, so I may not be crafting/blogging as much as usual, but some weeks I won’t be working at all and can get caught up (I hope… lol).

Then DSD was great! I did a little shopping online first thing in the morning, then last night I joined in on a couple of games/contests at DigiShopTalk and the Sweet Shoppe. I even won a couple things! I won 1 product of choice from Kim Hill, and a 5$ GC from TracyAnn of TADA! It was a great day! Wanna see all the goodies I got?

First I bought these at the Sweet Shoppe:

I chose this as my prize from Kim Hill/CG Essentials:

Then I bought these beauties with my GC from TracyAnn (plus spent a little as the 5$ didn’t quite cover all 3, but it was still a steal as the store’s still marked down by 40%!):

Oooh I also downloaded a few new CT goodies from Kristin! She just put out 2 new collab kits and an entire 12 month set of collab minis! I started by downloading:

I already used this kit this morning to create this week’s recipe card, you can look forward to that recipe on Thursday!

And I just wanted to talk about one more thing that I stumbled upon today…

Friends 4 Food project!

It’s a great contest for a great cause, if you’re interested in winning a goodie box filled with crafty goodies, or would like to donate some crafty goodies to be included in this wonderful price then check it out!

FOBTY – Cute Monster

If you didn’t know already, Sweet Shoppe Designs’ blog has a From Our Blog To Yours post every week that earns you reward points if you participate. I’m not doing it this week for the points though, I just thought that this week’s quiz was too cute to pass up, especially with today being Halloween. So here’s my Cute Monster and what he says about me…

What Your Cute Monster Says About You

You are a very natural, real person. You’re comfortable with who you are – and your spirit truly shines through. You are free of inhibitions and hang ups. Because of this freedom, you tend to be very creative. Your inner demon is greed. You can’t help but lust after wealth and shiny objects. People think you’re cute because you are so lively. Your natural glow makes you charming.
