My May Layouts

Sadly, I didn't find much time in May to scrap, I managed to get a whole 2 layouts finished, but I am really happy with the second one, so I'll call it a win! How many layouts did you get scrapped? I'd love to see some, leave me a link in the comments so I can check out some of your work!

Inspired by Noelle

**Throughout the remainder of the year, I am going to be introducing the Skribblers one at a time. I will do this through a special release, a kit or template set or combination that was inspired by the Skribbler we're meeting!**

Let's meet Noelle, the inspiration behind today's mini kit and template pack

**Bio Template created using All About Me**

Noelle is one of my oldest Skribblers, not necessarily in age, but in length of time she's been on my team! Noelle has been with me from pretty much the start! She also works as my moderator in the Skribbler forums, and is a big help on my team! Noelle creates beautiful layouts, often starring her daughter! 

Noelle provided me with four layouts she had created, and I used those layouts to create a fun set of templates!

Noelle also shared that her daughter, Chawndelle, the star of many of her layouts, loves purple and green! Noelle recently shared some personal stories with me about her daughter and some of the challenges she has faced over the years with her. Her stories and the colors that her daughter loves (one of my personal favorites too) inspired the mini kit "Something Special." I hope you like it! 

Thanks for inspiring me Noelle! 

Check out what Noelle and the rest of the Skribblers did with the templates and the mini kit! Then pop over to my store to pick them up for yourself!

A Special Thanks

I had a wonderful weekend celebrating iNSD - I gave away some RAKs, coupons and had a ton of fun shopping! A lot of very generous designers were sharing coupons, and I managed to snag myself a few fun goodies! I don't know when I'll have time to scrap with them, but I wanted to share a quick thanks to the designers whose goodies I 'won' with coupons and contests:

Sweet Digi Scraps::A Good Read

Kathy Winters Designs::A Mighty Rawr

FlutterExpressions::This Kid

Inspired by Dominic::CU Tissue Overlays

Wishing Well Creations::Owen's Room

and, for paying attention to her posts - I won a coupon to shop at a later date in Just Jaimee's store! I picked this up from her store as a thank you too her for the coupon! 

Thanks to all the very generous designers out there, I got a lot of additional freebies, hopped on a few blog trains and did a TON (too much) shopping! I have a lot of organizing to do!

My April Layouts

I have been trying really hard to get my albums caught up, at least the albums of the kids! I made some good headway in April in fact - as of yesterday I have scrapped 2 more layouts already this year than I did all of 2011! I'm feeling good about that! So, be inspire!

New Release: Around the House & Guest Gig

I am guest designing this month at Digital Scrap Cafe! I'm super excited to be hanging out with their team, and to get to celebrate {i}NSD there this weekend! I have a brand new kit, exclusive to DSC out today - it's all kinds of fun!

The kit is called Around the House and it's all about the not so fun parts of life, like cleaning! This kit would be super fun for hybrid projects like chore charts for the kiddos! I'm hoping to make one for my son to use!

Check it out:

I've also got a solid paper pack and some journaling cards (which *cough cough* might be free....

Check out what the Skribblers did with this fun kit!
