Just click on the photo below to be taken to download, password is beauty. Same thing here, click on the photo to be taken to download, the password is beauty.And the last one gives you the option of having no word art on it, click on the photo to download, and again, the password is beauty. If you download all three, you'll probably only have to enter the password once. Please let me know if you have any problems downloading!! And next up, is this fantastic kit by Cheri at Dream Big Digi, let me tell you I just loved playing with this kit! It started out as a collab kit with SAHM Scrapper, and ended up huge! I'm sure I cranked out these three layouts in about an hour! Grab it quick, as for a limited time, it's only $2 in her store! Here is the full preview:And here is the preview for SAHM's part:and my first layout, starring my nephew, I just loved the papers and all the elements in this kit! This layout is of my new nephew, using Cheri's part of the kit only:And this one was Chase, just ecstatic that it was snowing {it was early October, so needless to say, I was not as overjoyed}.And this one is my daughter, just being all cute and happy! Love these elements, and the photo mask! This layout used both kits.And here is one last freebie for you! A quick page made from my first layout for you! Hope you like some of my layouts, and please leave a comment if you download! I know you hear it all the time, but I know I for one really like to hear what you think! Click on the image to be taken to the download, and the password is family.Also, we celebrate Remembrance Day in Canada today, so make sure you take a moment to remember all those that have died for us, before us, so we could live in a free country. I found something I find very interesting on Wikipedia (don't you just love Wikipedia??) about the tomb of the Unknown Soldier, check it out if you're interested. I honestly never really gave much thought to the fact that some men went to war and never returned, and that they were possibly just never identified. Lest we forget...

Giveaway Winners and a Freebie

Hey all, sorry I've been slow in getting the giveaway winners posted, with my Scrap booking retreat this weekend, time for anything else has been limited, which I'm finding is the case a lot lately! So I apologize. And without further ado... (that sounds so lame to me lol)...the winner of the Quilt Taffy giveaway for day one is: comment #2, R. So please email me with your address, and I'll have the wonderful ladies at Quilt Taffy send you the turnover! In all fairness, there were only two entries, so you both had a 50/50 chance of winning!! I also said I would choose the winner for giveaway for day two on Sunday, so the winner of a kit from Vicki's store is comment #17, Marif!! Please email me with your choice of kit, and I'll get you the coupon code to grab your kit! And since today is Monday, I'll do the winner for giveaway day three as well...which is for a kit from Stacey's store. The winner is...{drumroll...} comment #6, DoggiNo, so again, please email me with your choice of kit and I'll get you a coupon code to claim your prize! My email is cwps29 (at) yahoo (dot) ca. No spaces, hehe, trying to fool the spambots! Or you can check my blogger profile to get the address if you don't understand cryptic lol.

Also, Maurine from Let Me Scrapbook has a freebie collab kit available right now on her blog, and guess who her collab is with? The fabulous Nicole of Digi Designs by Nicole, so head on over to Maurine's blog to grab her parts, and then hit Nicole's for her parts as well! Here is a preview to Maurine's part of the kit:
And here are my layouts, isn't that carriage element just too cute? And I love the alpha too:Credits: Sweet Romance kit by Let Me Scrapbook, Template #12 by Colie's Corner.Credits: Sweet Romance by Let Me Scrapbook, H cutout alpha template by Scrapping With Liz.
Please check out these ladies that make these freebies for us!! Both template creators post freebies on their blogs quite often, and so does Maurine! And so do I for that matter. For instance, this Wednesday, there just might be some quick pages made from these layouts!! Come back Wednesday for those! I also wanted to say a special thanks to Corrie and Des from Quilt Taffy, and to Vicki and Stacey from Scrap that Idea for donating the prizes for my first three blogiversary giveaways. Also, thanks to everyone that played along for the giveaways, and thanks for reading my little blog! It makes me happy to know that others enjoy what I blog about enough to bother "following" me. Congrats to the winners, and please note, you guys have a week (approximately knowing me, hehe, well, at least a week) to contact me to claim your prize. SO get on it!! Also, the kit by Maurine and Nicole is only free for a limited time so make sure you snag it before it ends up in their stores! Have a great night everyone :)
