Let me start by saying BRRRRRRR! It's stinkin' cold outside. It's 9:00 am and a whoppin' 4... yes FOUR degrees. And that IS fahrenheit! GAH! It's supposed to stay below 25 for at least another week with more snow in the forecast. It snowed a couple days ago, but even with the sunshine, it's still on the ground. The girls try to go out and play in it, but even bundled, they come in after about 15 minutes cuz it's just too cold. Nice to look at, but I don't like it. lol
So, on to fun fun business! I'm so excited to announce that I made the amazing Traci Reed's creative team! She had a call and chose 10 girls... I still can't believe I made it. She's so sweet and such a cool chica. I just finished my 1st assignment for her a couple days ago and it was such fun. She just released Punky In Pink with the equally cool Lauren Grier. It's a "totally" fun, 80s inspired kit that is perfect for all my high school pictures should I ever get around to scanning them all. I did, however, get one scanned to use and was it ever fun. Here is Punky In Pink and my LO using it...

I also had the thrill of posting my very 1st contribution to the Hawt Mamas Blog. Go check it out... there's a little freebie in my post.
Traci has some super YUMMY stuff in the works which, if we're all lucky, may be available in her store on Saturday. Keep your fingers crossed that the Photoshop "gods" smile kindly on her this week.
Misty Cato has also been hard at work to bring us some gorgeous new kits. Last week she released Heartstrings, my absolute favorite kit from her to date. It's so warm and beautiful. There are SO many amazing elements that I couldn't stop adding to my page. Here is Heartstrings and my LO using the kit...

Isn't that just the prettiest kit? Misty is on a roll... she has another gorgeous creation coming out this Saturday, so stop by and pick it up. You can see a sneak peek of it here on Friday. WOOHOO!
The beginning of the month is never complete without news of the newest kit from Songbird Avenue. This month the SBA girls have teamed up with the amazing Rhonna Farrer. Together they have created the very pretty Happiness with proceeds from this kit to benefit the Celiac Disease Foundation. Here is Happiness and my page using the kit...

Stop by and pick it. You'll not only get a beautiful kit, you'll benefit a great cause!
My two-month spot on Kay Miller's Creative Team ended with 2008, and I'm sad. I knew it was only a Guest spot, but it's hard to let go. lol Kay's style is so fun and whimsical you just can't help but smile when you're creating with her designs. I thought I'd show off the pages I made using her new releases from Nov and Dec. Thank you Kay for the oportunity, I had a wonderful time getting to know you and the other team members! Here are a few pages using Kay's designs...

Thanks again Kay, it was an honor!
Now, last but certainly not least... my girl Fee Jardine. Fee has been on vacation for the holidays, but I thought I'd show you her most recent release since it's so yummy. Joyful is so versatile because, while it certainly works for Christmas themed pages, it is not a "theme" kit, so it also works for anything! Instead, Fee created a plethera of element packs to make it more "christmassy". Check out Christmas Mix, Joyful Decorations , Joyful Tags and Baubles for variations to the kit. Here is Joyful and my page using the kit and Christmas Mix...

So, now that the holidays are over, stay tuned for something new from Fee very soon. YAY!
WHEW... that was a lot! I hope everyone is having a lovely week. Stay warm and keep scrappin'!







Love all the LOs!

Wow - so many gorgeous kits and beautiful pages!
Good luck with the cold cold weather! It's been very warm here - but I'd like it to be at least a little cool in January.
