Candyland Christmas

CHRISTMAS!!!! I'm so excited because some of the season's new Christmas kits are coming out! Like this one: Candyland Christmas by Nikki Epperson! The colors are bright and fun, and she's got some adorable elements in this kit! Love it! Add this terrific kit to a Fuss Free template by Fiddle Dee Dee Designs and you've got some Christmas magic!
I've been listening to the GLEE Christmas album and feeling generally Christmasy! But that's not unusual for me! :D

Digital Deliciousness!

So much goodness out there in the digital world! It's hard to make your way through all the digital shops and wade through the kits and papers and elements and word art, isn't it? I hope that seeing some of my layouts helps your narrow down your search! :D I seriously create for 4 of the best designers in digiland! I just joined Fiddle Dee Dee Designs creative team, so I'll have some of Cheryl's amazing templates to share with you all soon!

Today I'm bringing you digital delights from The Digichick! First up? Jennifer Labre Designs' kit, Daybreak, coupled with a Sweet Start Vol. 7 template by Nikki Epperson. And that cute little girl is ME! ;)

Next up? Fall in Love Again by Elise's Pieces! The detail on these elements is just amazing! These are pictures of Thomas lovin' on his younger siblings. He still loves babies! Another terrific template by Nikki from her Sweet Starts Vol. 7 set!

Finally, Winterland, a frosty kit by Nikki Epperson, coupled with one of her terrific templates from her brand new Sweet Starts Vol. 10! Love the wintery feel in this chilly kit!

Sneak Peeks!

Two new kits hit The Digichick Shop tomorrow! The first is Winterland by Nikki Epperson. She's also got another awesome template pack out: Sweet Starts Vol. 10! I used both the yummy winter kit and the template pack to create this layout:And Jennifer Labre Designs has a cute new mini-kit out, Daybreak! Check it out...and check out these cute pictures of me as a chubby toddler! :) I also used a Nikki Epperson Template on this layout from her Sweet Starts Volume 7. If you don't already love Nikki's templates, you NEED to give them a try! Templates are an awesome time saver for digital scrapbooking, and Nikki's are exceptionally terrific!

Winter Wishes and One Cool Metal Alpha!

Brrrrr...can you feel the cold? I'm laughing over here because the temps are still hitting 80 during the day! It does not feel like autumn, let alone WINTER! But this new kit, Winter Wishes, by Nikki Epperson had me remembering cold, Pennsylvania snow days! Add to it One Cool Metal Alpha by Jennifer Labre Designs and put it all together with one of Nikki's amazing Sweet Starts Vol. 9 template and you've got a FUN layout!

Playing in the Leaves!

Missing home…

Autumn in Palestine isn’t much to speak of—the brown, dry, hot summer kind of slips into a dreary, rainy winter. Autumn passes without much thought. It remains hotter than it should well into November. And every fall I miss home more than before. Pennsylvania has a breathtakingly beautiful autumn. I grew up with nothing but trees across the street and with grandparents whose farm was full of the sites and smells of autumn. Fresh baked apple pies, warm apple cider, playing in the leaves, state fairs, hay rides, hot cocoa and toasting marshmallows over the fire…all memories of autumns past. Right now I’d give anything to smell the crisp, fall air and Na-na’s apple pie….

So, I'm scrapping it! :D

This beautiful and FUN kit by Elise's Pieces and GBG Designs is perfect for autumn memories! Available exclusively at The Digichick! The picture is linked! Aren't the colors beautiful?

And yes...I'm on ANOTHER creative team! Elise's Pieces invited me to join their amazing team of digital scrapbookers! I'm thrilled to be coming along for the ride! And what a FUN kit to start with!
