Two Great Templates and Kits Scrapped....

I was so happy to get time to scrap these two pages.  One is of our village under our tree and I LOVE the colors of this kit.  I don't think I've ever see a Christmas kit with these colors... loved scrapping with it and I used two more templates by Roadside Designs.... aaaah I love scrapping with templates... really takes a lot of the stress out of the memory keeping.  You know I love being creative but when you use a template.  You can still enjoy creating but it's so much more FUN!

I used Snowberry Punched Up by Kiki Halbert in both of the below layouts HERE IS A LINK and a peak at that great kit


and I used two of the templates from this set.  HERE IS A LINK go ahead a try her templates... I think you'll love them as much as I do... here's a peak at them....






and here are the two layouts I made.....







Hope you've enjoyed a peek inside some of my scrapping.  Until I blog again...... Believe

Still scrapping through cancer treatments!

I'm still at it.  I must admit though this chemo treatment (his 4th this go-round) so far has been better on him the the last one.  Thank goodness we'll not have another until after the first of the year.  So I'm thinking he's going to have a good Christmas!  Between scrapping and making Christmas gifts I've enjoyed the season.  So I have a couple of layouts to show you today.  Both were created with the kit Sweet Emotion by KDesigns.  I like her designs.  I'm only a guest CT but I'm hoping to stay on with her.  I had a chance to sign on as a permanent but I wasn't sure I could handle being on 3 designers of kits and 2 designers of templates but it seems to be going well.  So enough babble.  Let me show you my first layout... before I do let me give you links to the kit and template I used.


Here's the LINK to that kit... Sweet Emotion... isn't it soft and pretty? and here's the pack of templates that I used one of... they are soooooo awesome.
and here is the LINK to these templates they are designed by Roadside Designs (LOVE her templates!)... take my word for it... templates are the way to go.  They just make a layout so easy and you can move items around and enlarge... etc...

and here's my layout.  It's of my Great Nieces - Casey and Destiny... did I mention I had twin Aunts and TWO sets of twin Great Nieces!  You'll be see all of them in upcoming layouts.


and my last layout I used this set of templates by Roadside Designs here is the LINK to go snag them... and my last layout of the day.


That's all I have for today.  Happy Scrapping until I blog again.

Scrapping those memories!

I've been scrapping those memories.  I have 4 layouts but I'll show you two today and 2 on the 15th and hopefully I'll have more soon.  Keith is having his next chemo treatment tomorrow.  I usually scrap more the first two weeks after his chemo treatment because I don't get far from him... he's usually pretty ill.  So I pass my time as a caregiver scrapping all the memories I have.

Here's the kit I scrapped with this last week.  It's got a nice winter "feel" to it but is very versatile.  So don't think you have to use it for winter scenes... there is a world of possibilities...  here a LINK and here's a sneak peak....


and here's my first layout.  I used a great template from Roadside Designs.  LOVE this woman's templates.  Nice and clean! Here's a LINK I used the 8 1/2 x 11 templates but they also come in 12 x 12 templates. 



My last layout is just a simple one because I was so moved by the flags on Veterans Day in Trion, GA I HAD to scrap about them.  No template was used... just the Lovely Winter Kit


Hope you all have a great evening and get lots of scrapping done.... Until I post again.... Believe

I love scrapping!

When you have an idea in your head, photos, a great kit and the icing is an awesome template... scapping just falls right into place don't you think?  OH I do... Let me show you the kit I just finished using and the template pack.. I'll even link you up.  You might want to jump on some of the great deals out there in digi-land....

Here's the kit... It's called Winter In Paris by Kreen Kreation and here's the link  and look at how pretty it is.

and this is the template pack used.  It's Trail Map Collection 1 by Roadside Designs... I LOVE her templates... nice and simple... not crammed packed full... I've found that a lot of scrappers... well... their photos get lost in all their elements... I like the photos to shine... I figure THAT'S what the memory I'm scrapping is about... not the elements... the elements are suppose to ADD to the layout not diminish the layouts... but maybe that's just me... but I'm loving working with Roadside Designs templates.... here's a link this is the link to the 12 x 12 templates on my layouts I used her 8 1/2 x 11 templates.








That's all I have for today.  I'm working on another layout... it's open in my PS right now... so I'll be back soon... but until I do happy scrapping and remember to believe.
