3 Quick Page Freebies

We hope you all had a wonderful Easter time. Ours was delightful thanks to the gorgeous days we had.

I realize I have be popping in and out lately without updates. Free time these days is limited to what I can manage in the free time I have. Hockey season is almost over and I will have more free time when it's done.

The reason I popped in today was to give you a few free quick pages as seen in the previews below.










You can download them at MEDIA FIRE.

Scrap That Idea Turns Two

Happy Birthday Scrap That Idea!

Let's Celebrate!

March 1st 2011 marked the 2nd anniversary of Scrap That Idea.

Scrap That Idea was created by 4 wonderfully talented girls who love to scrap.

I first came across Victoria Parker about 5 years ago when she first began to dabble in online digital scrapbooking and communication. As a 'newbie' to the digital scrap booking world she wooed us with her talented creativity through 'Freebies'. As Vicki learned new scrap booking techniques and traveled in scrap booking circles, she met 3 other wonderfully talented scrap booking girls; Stacey, Sara & Mel. During the first couple of years these 4 girls not only became great friends, they would also collab on many projects together, so much so, that 2 years ago, on March 1st, Scrap That Idea was born.
Scrap That Idea bought each of these talented scrap booking designers together to offer the online public a store to purchase their scrap booking products, a forum to play, learn, chat, get the latest new, etc., a blog to keep the web community apprised of what the girls are up to at Scrap That Idea, and much more.
A year and a half later Scrap That Idea added another friend and wonderfully talented designer, to their group from their CT Team, Laramie. To date they are all quite busy creating fantastic scrap booking supplies while keeping their forum actively rocking with fun.

During their 2nd year anniversary party their is lots of fun going on in the forums so head on over and join in on the celebrations and make some points for participating.

Every month, with the purchase of $5.00 or more in the store, you not only get some fantastic scrap booking products and points towards future purchases but you also get a free collab kit.



And this month Scrap That Idea has a special event going on that you truly do not want to miss out on. Check it out.



Head on over to Scrap That Idea, get some fantastic scrap booking supplies and join in on all the fun!

Happy Valenitne's Day - Freebie Mini

Happy Valentine's Day Scrapers;

It has been quite some time, very busy on my end, little time to post.
We wish you all a very Happy New Year, we hope you have a funtastic year of the Rabbit.
I am going straight to the point of today's post as I still have a few things to do before hitting the hay and I wanted to get at least something out to you all in honor of today.

As I mentioned before, while enjoying Tyler's hockey games, I indulge in a bit of scrap making while waiting for him to change in and out of his gear. Here's a little mini of some paper and fabric things I made for some Love layouts.

Time to Relax

Howdy Folks;

How have you all been? Are you all prepped for the big day? This year went by so fast. Isn't that always the way when you are busier then a bee in summertime. Whew, it's time to relax. I so need to do that LOL. When Mum said she wanted to have the dinner at her house this year I was overjoyed. Thou I love company, and we'll have plenty of that over the break, I really wasn't looking forward to cooking for everyone on the big day. To be honest I am burnt out and need 3 days of good uninterrupted sleep which I will be doing starting Monday.
We did get to put the tree up and I have a few photos of some of my favorites to show you. First let me say that the only thing I actually help with is the beads, the boys do all the rest. I have to say they have great imaginations too because the way they put it all together has stories behind every placement.

This one is the musical tale of the wise man and the big fish he caught. (the Wise man, the violin and the fisherman)

In this one the Angel watches over the babies while they sleep.

This is Joe's new ornament for 2010. He's an avid Campbell Soup Ornament Collector.

Joe got this Santa ornament when he was a kid from his Mum. Behind it is his Lou Gehrig ornament he got from my Mum on our first Xmas in our new home. Above it my Norman Rockwell ornament I got in 1994. I've taken this photo off the angle of the story. Sorry boys LOL


And this one is my Christmas card for 2010. This ornament is from a set I got from my Mum. They were always on our tree when I was a kid and she knew I loved them so she gave them to me.
You may have noticed that we don't put up a real tree. Ours is a fake one. And a heck of a lot easier to put away without a mess.
We had a real tree once but the mess, the watering, Joe sneezing all the time, it was to much so we just bought a nice size fake one our second Xmas and it's been faithful to us ever since. And no stickies :)

Over the last few weeks, while Tyler has been getting changed either to play or finish playing hockey Ive been hiding in the eatery with my laptop making Christmas goodies for you. I must say that the mothers of the team kept at me, being inquisitive, showing them what I was doing, how I did that, you know, being nice but really pestering me because I wanted to get it done while I had the free time LOL It took me longer and by no means did I come near to finishing what I wanted to put into it which seems to be the way these days. But I will get it out to you all before the weekend is over. That's a promise.

It's been a very long day for me so I am going to catch a few z's and get started on your gift after breakfast. Drop in later tonight, k.

Enjoy your day &

HAPPY HOLIDAYS TO ALL

Oh The Sales

Howdy Cyber folks;

Happy Belated Thanksgiving, Cousins!
And look at all those SALES!
Best get on them a.s.a.p. cause they will be gone on Tuesday.

Yesterday was quite the treat for me. 7 am my aunt arrived and we went digi shopping till noon and ended up spending around 60 bucks. 45 kits in total. Now the fun begins in downloading them all. One store totally crashed and we couldn't get the downloads. I think that is the worst part of all the Black Friday sales. 10 of the kits will have to be downloaded during the week. We got all the rest thou so look out for some quick pages from me during December.

I am so jealous. Yesterday we got about a half hour of snow flakes that didn't even leave a mark. I want snow, snow, snow. My gfs in Utah, New Mexico, and several more states in the USA, got plenty to brag about. The New Mexico snow fall brought tears to my eyes. Here I live in the Great White North and they got snow before we did. Talk about a climate change. I was telling Joe we should move further north cause they got snow already but I don't think he's willing to do that for snow. LOL

Today I am relaxing, I so need it. Until 3 pm at least. Tyler has a game at 4 pm. My sister and brother will be coming around tomorrow to do our Christmas draw and then we will be heading out to 5 malls to pick names from the trees.
We'll be doing Christmas a bit different this year. We might not put up a tree at all. We usually put ours up on the 1st weekend in December but we won't be here. Tyler has a hockey tournament and we will be in St. Catherin's all weekend. The next weekend we have a wedding to go to out in Alberta and the following weekend we are going to New Brunswick. And Joe is trying to talk me into traveling somewhere exotic for the remainder of the month, which he has off. Add to this that I am involved in helping to set up the Christmas concert, the Christmas play, and 4 Christmas parties and you can understand why I so need some one to split me in three. LOL

So how will I be relaxing this morning? I going to make some quick pages, of course. Maybe I'll have one or two for you tonight.

Oh, yes, I am still boycotting 4 shared. They totally suck big time.

Have a snow-rific day.
Huggins
Pat

Edit: 10:28 am

I got my wish.....it's snowing, and it's staying, yehaw, yehaw, YEHAW!

Just a few Photos

Howdy Folks;

It's almost time for me to crash, as Tyler puts it these days LOL, so I thought I would share just a few pics with you. I am still transferring and organizing them, what a job when there are so many to do with such little time but here goes, in numerical order...

the pumpkin patch...


Joe's favorite apples


Tyler's favorite apples and mine

Happy iNSD - Freebie

Happy International Scrap Booking Day Scrappers!

I didn't forget about you. I took some time out yesterday and today to get you a bit of stuff. It's not much and I am just about ready to go out for another hockey game at 3 pm so I couldn't add much more. Tomorrow I won't be around at all so I think it best to just give you what I've got and be glad with myself that I was able to squeeze some time in. Anyone figure out how to split me in three yet? LOL
No comments are required unless there is an issue cause I know there is just way too much stuff to download and do on this busy weekend. You can use the shout box as its way easier.
I used this months DSO Colors. Included are 5 papers, 2 different types of frames, 2 journal tags, a tree, 2 flowers, 2 leaves.
Okay, the preview and below it the links.

Can some one split me in three, please

Howdy Folks,

Yes I have been MIA for quite a bit here on the blog. Time just doesn't slow down long enough for me to finish what I start LOL.
In the am, I am able to sit for an hour, if I am lucky, before I have to get going, this leaves me just enough time to pop in and visit some online buds, maybe a forum, and poof, the time is gone. In the afternoon I am lucky to get in an another hour and poof, it's gone again. But the time I finish my day I am beat. But today I took a short nap, 47 minutes, woo who, in the afternoon just so I could post this evening, still I am pooped and will be heading off to dream land as soon as I am done, yawning away as I type.

I know I have missed so much here in scrap land but I have been trying my best to at least stay in touch with some of you most of the time. Let's just say Google's Reader is probably over the top, I am terrified to open it and see all those posts.

I haven't had any time to scrap or make anything, there just isn't any free time to spare.

Kristine, I live in Oakville, Ontario, not to far from Kitchener, LOL ( i hope its the wench who left the message) will I come and visit? maybe at the end of spring if Tyler doesn't play ball this year.
Can you split me in three cause i wanna go up to see Pam up in Barrie too.

Oh when was it, early October I think, we went up to the orchard and spent the day picking apples, spent the next two days making 40 pies, what a nightmare, my hands ached for weeks peeling those apples. No I don't have a magic peeler to do it for me, but I am thinking about it, trust me.

This weekend Joe is off, man the guy works way too much, and this leaves me lugging the boys around everywhere. don't even talk to me about snow, I don't wanna see any. I've seen enough. Can some one buy me a ticket to the Bahamas, I so need some sunshine and a beach with some gorgeous blue tropical waters. Nah, forget it, I would probably sleep the time away and miss the beauty anyway.

Last Friday he got a new Honda Cr V and he won't let me drive it. He also got promoted, the snob, he's now a boss. Really, I am so proud of him.

Tyler has a garbage bin full of Hallowe'en crap, yeah it's crap to me. I am an icing girl and that's about as far as I go in the sugar department. That should last him till next year. He dressed up as, of all things, a hockey jock LOL Oh, he's a hockey jock alright, every game scoring goals, even teaching some of the new kids some of his fancy tricks. He cracks me up.

Don't even talk to me about pictures, I have so many I don't know where to begin. I can't promise I'll post any cause who knows when I will be able to post again. Please, split me in three so I can have some me time, pretty please, I'll pay you.

Well I have to go before I crack my chin off the table, I can't stop yawning. 6 am is just way to early for me.

Gotta go
Huggins to you all

October DSO CC - Freebie

Howdy Peeps;

How are you all? Has the cold/flu virus finished in your household yet? LOL I laugh because its so predictable isn't it. I swear if the boys didn't get it from work and school we'd all be viral free. I always get sick from Joe. Joe just has to kiss me before leaving for work. dang.

Autumn is my second favorite season, spring being my first. I'm guessing most people love the change in leaf color which can be seen for miles standing on a hilltop. We have some amazing scenic hilltops here in Ontario and if you go north, wow, totally awesome. We are heading up north next weekend to winterize the cottage and definitely taking pictures.

How was your Thanksgiving weekend? Tasty? Lip smacking good? Joe bought a Presidents Choice turkey this year with all the fixing already done. Stuffed and buttered. I was so looking forward to our yearly roast but what the hey. Yes, I know it's turkey time, but I like to steer away from BIRD in cold and flu season, call me silly. So since I made the bird we've have turkey dinners, turkey stews and stuffing up to our eye balls. I swear if he brings home a BIRD for Christmas I'll cook it until it's burnt then we'll have to go out for dinner LOL. Turkeys are so big and with most of our family sick and staying home I am left with massive amounts of turkey to dish out in a million different ways. Even Lady is sick of it. LOL
But anyway I am babbling on and on when I should be getting to the point of this post...Kim B's DSO Color Challenge.
As you know I don't have a lot of time on my hands these days but when I could I sat for a bit and tried to think up something to do with these colors. All I got was papers so far. See I am not even doing it right this month. Usually I like to make a layout with a photo and go from there but I am in Autumn mode and these colors just didn't speak Autumn to me while all my photos do LOL. But there I go again, babbling. So I'll get to it cause time is creeping up and we have a hockey game at 7 pm to attend which means we leave at 6 pm.
If you would like these papers you can get them here, here and here.





Thanks for stopping by and reading my post today. If you have any problems with the downloads Shout at me in the Shout box. It's way easier then commenting. K
Enjoy your downloads and your day.

Sept DSO CC - Freebie

Howdy Folks;

Is it cold where you are? Up here in Southern Ontario it's like the end of fall. We had to put the heat on a few days ago and last night was freezing outside. I swear the seasons are all messed up. We had the least amount of rain for summer this year and the end of Autumn came in before the end of summer went out. The butterflies are confused. They need the warm Mexican wind to take flight and it's no where to be found. Mexico is flooded with rain and there's not one but 2 hurricanes playing in the gulf.

Yesterday I went shopping for some winter boots with my girlfriend and as we wandered around the stores looking at things we noticed 95% of the stuff was made in China. I can't even find a pair of underwear that isn't made in China. Where the heck does the things Made in Canada go? Doesn't Canadians make anything anymore or does the entire planet get there stuff from China? That really freaks me out. No offense to China but I still haven't gotten over the wheat gluten pesticide that killed a lot of pets or the embalming fluid found in Victoria Secret bras or the lead found in the paint on children's toys, all coming from China. Or the milk that killed lots of Chinese children made in their own country.
I didn't get the boots so tomorrow I will try some other stores like Mark's Work Warehouse. Maybe I can find some boots that actually keep my feet warm cause that thinsulate stuff sucks big time. Last year I had to wear those thick wool work socks over my regular socks in ski do boots, of all things.

Anyways, I am going to be pretty busy over the next several weeks with Thanksgiving coming up and then Hollow's Eve and we still have to get the cottage set up for winter. Stages have to be made, painted and set up, rehearsals, parties, dinners, etc. so I am booked solid. And Tyler decided he wants to play hockey this year so my weekends and nights are gone too.

I was able to get a few papers done and some round frames for September's DSO CC but that's all I will be able to get done for this month. I won't have any time available in October so it's best that I get what I've made out to you now before I get so wrapped up in things that I forget to even get them to you at all. I so wanted to make something to do with wine and grapes cause that's what these colors told me they were but time just wasn't on my side :) So enough of my blabbing. Here is the preview and below it the links.

Pamela McNicol Is BACK

Howdy Folks;

I had the best surprise this evening when I opened reader and saw a post I had been waiting for for so long. I scrolled right on down to read the post by the infamous Pamela McNicol.
You may recall Pamela took a much needed break way back in April 2009 to take care of her family. Well she is making a comeback and I can't wait....I am so thrilled. I missed her and prayed for her and her family every day.
Today she posted a picture of her 3 children heading off to school and they look so loved and incredibly happy. The break was so worth it for all of them.

Please head on over and give Pamela a big warm welcome back. You are going to love her designs. I know I do.

We're Back

Well Hello Everyone;

Has it been ages or what LOL

What a busy 1st week back to school. PTA meetings, Library Meetings, Social Meetings, well you get the picture. But today is Saturday and I can finally sit down and catch up. I opened reader first thing when I finally got online and man, over 5000 posts to read, NOT. Sorry girls and guys but I just hit the Read All button. I couldn't possible handle it. I opened my email and wow, there are over 200 emails in there.
I know I missed a lot in digiland but I had a fantastic summer. How about you?
I really missed you peeps personally and I thought about you quite often. I talked about you all quiet often too. Some of the girls and I went to a few country sales. These are like Garage sales but when in the country we go from farm to farm not house to house LOL.
More times then I can count I would spy something and think of one or many of you. So even though I wasn't online with you you sure were spending your summer with me.

This morning was the first time I turned on the computer too and I had several updates to do first. After that I went to look in my folder to see where I left off and there was sitting a layout I was suppose to get up before I left. I must have blanked it out or thought I did it but either way there it sat. Poor Loucee must think I forgot all about her and her challenge. Well I did didn't I. And I forgot to let Kim know I posted that little gift using the August CC. So I've done that now too. The Cars were right. Summer turns me upside down. It's my excuse and I'm sticking to it :)
Here is the layout I did for Loucee's Animal Challenge over at DSO...


Give me a few days to catch up on all the past and recent news and I'll get started on some new challenges and free gifts for all. Now where is my mojo bag...umm :)

Edit: Now there goes my brains again leaving me behind. Today is Sept 11 isn't it. Let us pray for the lives lost in 2001. I don't think any of us will forget that day as long as we live.

I am off

Morning Folks.

I am glad to see there were no issues (well one which I hope has been resolved).

It's just before 6 am here and I am off to the great wide open, Northern Country, that is, in an hour or so. Just waiting on Joe. So I thought I would come on in a babble for a bit.
I'll be back, hopefully by the end of August, but if things should change it will be the 4th of Sept at the latest. Tyler starts back at school on the 7th and I usually have a shindig bbq over the Labor Day Weekend, the last long weekend before everyone is back into high gear till Thanksgiving.
We are having some cool Autumn weather here as I speak. I actually had to wear a hoodie outside last night. The AC hasn't been on since the following night when the winds of change blew in and slammed my bedroom door waking me with a start.
Oh and here's a funny...the other day, when I did the template challenge over at the DSO, I did it on a song that I woke up with and it kept lingering on in my mind...well yesterday I was having some lunch and this commercial comes on the tv and it's got that song playing in it...and I'm like, so that's where I got it from...the darn tv playing while I'm sleeping...and here I am thinking it had some deep meaning LOL. I don't eat hot dogs, that's what the commercial is for.
Any how, I am going to bid you all a fond farewell for now.
Have a wonderful day and month.

Thank U Gift - Freebie

Hello Fellow Scrappers...............

I hope the links have worked for you.
Again, my sincere apologizes.

I am pooped.
Spent what time I could this evening making a small gift for your kindness. And patience.
It was well worth the time.
I hope you like it.
I picked up the palette from Kim's Color Challenge over at the DSO when I came back and they are marvelous.
I created a layout of Lady, seen below, which I turned into a quick page for you and
I also split everything up so you could make your own pages with the paper, butterfly, frame and rose. All in 1 download (47mb) :)

Here is the page I created of Lady. She truly is. A Lady.

Totally not finished but I am pooped LOL

And here is your small gift.


Again, thank U all for your kindness. I must get some zees before I bang my head off the table LOL.
Oh I leave this evening. I will check back before I go to make sure everything is okay with this download. I will check several times throughout the day too.

Enjoy your day and your download.
