Biograffiti: Retirement Sale

I just HAD to tell you all about this AWESOME DEAL going on!  No joke, I just got over $782 of Biograffiti's awesome templates and kits for just $25!!!  It's a little less than the total price of her store because I already had a few things.  This sale is a great way for new to digi scrappers start their stash.  She's got loads of elegant kits and clean, graphic templates you should check out before they're gone. 

Halloween Costumes with Spooky Stuff: Free Mini Kit

Are your kids excited for Halloween?  Even though the month's just begun ER has known for awhile what she wants to be.  Big surprise, it's a princess...yet again, but with a twist that even Daddy can appreciate.  I think he was secretly thrilled when she announced it was Princess Leia from Star Wars.  We found a great costume, complete with bun style hair do wig!  We couldn't leave LB out of the fun, although I probably won't give into pressure and search out an ewok costume.  I did dress him up in this cutie patootie green monster one piece, it even has "claws" on the feet! 

I used the FREE mini kit Spooky Stuff from this month's newsletter from Louise Franks Designs.  This month it also comes with a free template, that I used with the kit to make the layout at the top super fast.  So if you don't already subscribe, why the heck not?  There's still time to sign up and get the newsletter this month.  Then you can look forward to a new cool freebie each month, as well as finding out the latest scoop about Louise's designs.  It's a win win!

Get Well Soon Kit & Layout of the Week

Guess what?  Before I even got a chance to share with you my layouts with the latest digiscrapping kit from Louise Franks Designs, I found out I won layout of the week with one of my layouts using it, over at Scrapping Fairytales!  I think that's pretty cool, because I am not normally someone who wins things. 

As you can tell from the layout "Playing Doctor" Louise's kit Get Well Soon has a medical theme.  While it certainly can be used to document all the bumps and bruises we get, I picked the more light hearted theme of playing make believe.  Here's a preview of the kit:

Are the little people adorable?  I like how all the papers and elements are so bright and happy.  It's always good to look at the bright side of things, especially if you really do have pictures from being in the hospital to use it wirh :(  Louise is so great, not just cause of this next thing, but it's really shows what a great heart she has - check it out:

Isn't that so sweet, like I said Louise is just the best!  Although again, I do hope you don't need a customized little guy or gal to match anyone you know!  Just so you don't think you have to have little ones to use the kit, check out what Louise did with it.  I like how she incorporated the word art into the journaling!  Here's one more layout I did with Get Well Soon.  You can find it at Louise Franks Designs and at Scrapping Fairytales.
