There is so much help for everyone no matter what their skill level and everyone is always there to lend a helping hand with anyone's questions (includin me) so it's wayyy cool! And the gallery is rockin! So check it out and don't forget to pop back there for the week long sale!

In other non-digi news I went for my tests yesterday. Can I just say that there is NO WAY Barium is a good thing to drink! ROFL! It was so heavy and so gross that I was this close to losing it! Good thing you can't eat or even drink before hand...now I know the real reason! Hopefully I will have the results back soon and can get everything all fixed up.

Today is Kelsey's last day of school. Can I say I feel like such a cool mom...I bought her a disposable camera (I wouldn't give her my camera...are you crazy?! LOL!) to take with her on her last day so she can take shots of all her friends and stuff and then of course...scrap. She got a Bratz scrapping kit for her birthday so these shots will be perfect. She loves to scrap and draw, that's my girl! :)

Well I hope everyone has a great weekend! I know I will, today is my last day before having 2 weeks holidays from my IRL job and I can't wait!!!!! YAY more scrapping and designing time! Woo-hoo! Alright everyone, enjoy your weekend and your families!

New products!!!

Well I have finished the first 2 in my new line of Punished products, lol! I love that name, rofl! They are items that have been more than grunged up and more than distressed they have been punished. So the first 2 are primary papers packs; Punished Plaid and Punished Polka Dot. I love how they turned out and I am sooo into primary bright colors right now. Must be because it's summer! I think I also forgot to share my Primary Funk Doodle style funky flowers, they go really well with these papers, gee is it too late to change their name? Naw I like primary funk, lol. (I actually name all my papers but I don't get to actually name them like that in the zips or else no one would know what's what, lol, little known tidbit, rofl.)

So here they are:

So it's the start of another week, ugh I hate Mondays if they are not holidays! ROFL! BUT this is my last week of work before a 2 week holiday so I can handle that I guess. I can't wait to sleep in and be lazy!!!

So what else is new? Not much, just wanted to share with you my new products which of course can be found at both of my stores Digital Candy & The Digiscrapshak. Later chickies!

Just Chattin'

Well, this week has flown by! I am so glad it's Friday, I can't wait for a relaxing weekend...do those exist? LOL! Not much planned for us. I have testing to do at the Dr's on Wednesday. I am so sick of avoiding raw vegetables and fruits because of the horrific pain I get in my stomach so I finally asked for them to figure it out instead of just avoiding those foods all together. It makes it so hard to lose weight, plus I miss my salad! Within the past week another issue has come up, I keep feeling full as soon as I start eating and I have to force myself to eat even just a little bit. UGH! I hope they figure this out, although I could stand to lose a few pounds so this might actually be a good thing, lol! I think I've figured it out though, I stumbled across something on the internet after adding this other issue and it sounds totally like what could be happening. Although DH says I'm a hypochondriac and I am no Dr. so I could be wayyy off! ROFL! I guess we will have to wait and see.

I am also totally sick of my hair! It's in between curly and straight and I have to curl or straighten it to leave the house and look somewhat decent. So I am thinking either a perm or straighten it...still unsure though. I am so scared I will look like a poodle or have my hair move in just one solid chunk. I used to have beautiful natural curly hair and worked in a beauty salon, people would come in and say they wanted their perm to look just like my hair, not anymore, where we live now the air is so dry that I can't get it curly to save my life. It's getting pretty long and I don't want to cut it but it's in my way all the time and I HATE it when it's windy (which here is all the time) it tickles my nose and cheeks when it blows around, I know weirdo, lol! So I am going to call my hairdresser and see what she says and hopefully get something done this weekend. (Although I have been saying this since last week, I am SUCH a procrastinator!) I think it also has to do with getting old, it's getting thinner than it used to be and my oh my I have a few gray hairs!!! Aaak!

Vacation is coming up in 1 week, by this time next week I will be on my first day of vacation! YAY! NO work!!! Ok, digi work but that's fun for me ;) I hope to get alot done while I am off but if I don't have projects started and I do get time off I can't seem to start something new, I need to be in the middle of creativeness (not a word I know) to be able to jump back in and get it done. We don't really have any plans, we spent our vacation $$$ going to Vegas a few months ago so we will probably end of just doing day trips around home. The ONE thing I do want to do is go to the zoo. I have only been one time before and was so sick I could not enjoy it so I am excited for that.

Oh I forgot to tell you that dd lost ANOTHER tooth this week! My goodness she is gonna be toothless soon. I think that's 4 in 2 weeks! WOW! So now that I have mentioned my baby can I say it saddens me that she just turned 9?! She is not my baby anymore, and she's my only one, pout!

I just finished reading Dean Koontz's new book The Good Guy, it was good but didn't capture me like some others have. And right now I am reading an old one of his called Night Chills, I am only a little way in and this one's not capturing my attention either. Hmmm....maybe it's my mood lately.

Anyway, that's about it to be caught up since last time I blogged. Hope everyone has a great weekend!!! Later gators!

Thunderstorms and a Digital Candy FREE Megakit and Goodie Bag!!! :)

This is a quote from Environment Canada for a Severe thunderstorm watch for our area tonight...UGH!!!

"Thunderstorms with Nickel size hail, heavy rain and funnel clouds have been reported. Conditions are favourable for the development of funnel clouds or weak tornadoes. These types of funnel clouds form out of large cumulus clouds or very weak thunderstorms and normally do not have the energy to reach the ground. However one or two of these funnels may briefly touch down and can become destructive over a very small area. Treat all funnel clouds and tornadoes seriously and avoid when possible. Should one develop overhead take shelter until it dissipates. Remember these funnel clouds will normally appear with little or no warning."

Thanks! Just what we needed! Although I have to say that I checked the radar online and it looks like it will miss us. Yeah...I'm THAT kind of gal! When the summer heats up here we get the chance of tornadoes. Not at least we don't live in tornado alley (I don't know HOW you gals do it that do!) but it still TOTALLY freaks me out! In the summer you can find me glued to the weather channel many nights if there is any signs of bad weather. I like to say that I will be the one to survive if anything does happen, but the truth is I *may* just be a bit weird, lol! BUT since I have had the opportunity to see a tornado first hand I think I have a right to be this way, lol. Ok, granted the one I saw was not big but a neighboring town was leveled by one many moons ago and they DO happen around here so I let myself be paranoid. This is probably something you will see much this summer on this little weather freak's blog, lol! So speaking of the one I saw...wanna see it?

LOL I know pretty small but a tornado nonetheless. YIKES! Here's to hoping everyone around these parts stays safe tonight, but since these aren't your typical funnel clouds it shouldn't be too much of a worry. I don't usually worry unless it's about 90 some degrees and then I worry!

Ok, well i guess that's about enough blabbering from this dork! Hope you all had a great day!

New Header = New Look + the tooth fairy...again?

So How do you all like my new header?! I am lovin it! It's my first try at any doodle-y and I am lovin it! BTW that is my little pug Nelly in there too (besides the obvious DD and DH). I had so much fun doing this! I SHOULD have been creating but ya know, it was nice to create with and not just design, although I did make everything especially for this header...ok almost everything special for this lol.

So you are NOT gonna believe who is visiting my house AGAIN tonight?! THE TOOTH FAIRY!!! That is 3 times for the same kid in only one week!!! I am going broke ROFL! When I went to pick her up from school today she was grinning and so I asked her if she had lost another tooth again and she said yup. We laughed all the way home and told her she better not lose anymore of she won't have any left to chew with! LOL! Ironically she has a dentist appt in 2 days...maybe she's losing them all so she won't haev to go. OR knowing Kelsey she is prying them out of her mouth with plyers to get moe $$$ from the tooth fairy! ROFLMBO!!! I wonder if I'll wake her up tonight, probably! I'm no graceful dancer that's for sure!

Well not much to say but just wanted to show you all my new look. Hopefully you have all seen my new Indexed Memories frames which I used in the new header. They are soo cool if I do say so myself and I am so excited to bring them to digi.

Well I'm off...wish me luck as the tooth fairy tonight...AGAIN!!!

NEW NEW NEW Item! I'm so proud!

Wow, I have sooo much to blog about but I'll be selfish and start with my own stuff, tee-hee ;)
I have a NEW ITEM! Yes, completely new to the digi-world and I am so proud! I call them Indexed Memories. Do you remember a few years back when you would use Advantix film? When you would get it developed it would come with a photo index print...well here it is the Digi-Way!

And here is a layout that I made especially for this! My daughter's 6th birthday getting a new bike. Isn't the look on her face in the last picture priceless!?! LOL, what a cutie!

You can find this awesome new item in both of my stores (links are on the right side of blog).

Okay so more news! The Digiscrapshak is having a birthday bash in honor of our awesome owner Lori's birthday and the entire store is 40% off and there are awesome birthday boxes from almost every designer for only $2.00!!! You HAVE to check this one out!!! Have you ever tried the Photoblast actions from the Shak? Right now they are 15% off for the birthday bash. They are so rockin! I am slowly amassing a ton of those and use them on every layout I create! These are a MUST have. My favs are the color wash and the vivid color and oh of course the all time favorite beauty glow action!

Wow, that was alot of digi fun! In other news (lol) I booked dd's b-day party, she will be swimming with about 15 of her closest friends. I am sooo not looking forward to that part. The parties are always soo hectic and I come away feeling tired, drained and with such a headache I can't even function for the rest of the day. I can't believe my one and only baby is turning 9, pout, she's growing up so fast!

I almost got caught last night when the tooth fairy paid her second visit. DD woke up and I was standing on the ladder to her loft bed and had just made the swap (humming the james bond theme music here) when she sat up!!! I told her that I was just checking to make sure she had set her alarm since she forgot the day before. She was so out of it she didn't even remember so that's good.

Wow, I am exhausted! It's almost midnight here and I am blogging?! ROFL! What a computer geek Digi has turned me into, ha ha! Well my eyes are barely hangin on after these last few late nights! So until later chicks!

Double the Pleasure, Double the Money?

So Kelsey lost a tooth yesterday at school. She had been saying some were loose but i didn't know they still lost teeth at her age (almost 9). She was so excited when I picked her up, they had even put it in a little treasure chest called a tooth keeper for her. Awww how cute! So the tooth fairy officially payed (get it?!) her a visit last night. Well this morning while she was eating breakfast ANOTHER tooth came out!! So the tooth fairy will be paying yet another visit tonight, 2 visits in 2 days. We should leave a note saying that she only pays out once a week, ha, ha!

Still trying to decide on what to do for her birthday party, but I think it will be swimming.

I did some layouts last night, I know, a rarity! These are quickpages that will be being given as a surprise at Digital Candy. I can't tell you much...but if you haven't registered or re-registered then you should do so as soon as possible, wink, wink. Check them out below. I used my Bloomin Crabapple kit.

Kelsey's First Day of Grade 3. She's such a Diva and you cannot catch her not posing!

My mom and Kelsey a few years ago when she came for a visit.

Soooo...if you like these layouts and want them as quick pages, you know what to do, wink, wink.

Okay, I have another announcement. I have been working on something really cool and it's almost ready! I won't tell you what it is but I will give you a hint: I don't want to be "negative" about it. Any guesses? No it's not the most obvious one, but along those lines...very close! I guess you'll just have to wait and see!
