Now then remember how I said a while back that I had won that HUGE rak on the Scarlet Lime Kits Blog? Well this month's kit was so delish! I wanted to share a layout I did last night using it. Cause after all what's a post without a layout to share? HaHaHa And there will be more coming from this kit! Here it is...

Okay Okay my second secret is that I am guest designing for Scrap For A Cure!!! Weeeeeeeeee How cool is that! This kit club is awesome and not only to we get scrapbooking stuff we get to help others! That's so top notch, hey?! I though I would share a few sneaks (sneaks include things from my own stash as well such as flowers and buttons) and tell you to make sure you get over there and put in your pre-order for this kit it's so much fun! You won't wanna miss out. Promise and I keep it! :)

My last secret isn't sharable yet. And yes I think I just made that word up myself. HaHaHa But trust me you're gonna love it. I'm still flipping out about it. :) I'm sucha happy girl! :) Hey that sounds like the title to my next layout! Which btw I am pumping out pages like mad this month. So prod of myself. Just feeling so inspired. Tim says this baby boy is gonna be a good scrapbooker. HeeHeeHee

Oh and just wanted to tell you if you haven't been over to the American Crafts Blog lately you might wanna go check it out. They're having sneaks of CHA stuff. Yummy stuff. Don't forget to check out the gallery there. So much inspo! It's updated every 1st of the month. :)

Well until next time much love and peace~

HE'S A BOY!!!!!

YAY!!!!! I had my ultrasound today and no sooner then she put that thing on my belly the little booger flopped over and flashed us! Kinda like weeeeeeeeeee I'm a boy Mommy! LOL He was so cute all moving around doing karate and what not. HeeHee It was so fun to watch him. My heart smiled the whole time and Timmy was so excited to see him. It was to cute cause he was sucking his thumb practically the entire time. The tech was so sweet too! She had us in there for a good 40 minutes. :) I think she was having fun with my baby. HaHa We got 4 5x7 pic.s. What a difference from when Timmy was born the pic.s were scarce and only 3x3. :P So, he is healthy and growing. My due date is May 13th. Cute little spring baby! :) We are so excited!

New Look, Sneaks, and my Etsy

Hello strangers! :) I'm here with a new look for my precious blog that I always neglect. :( This year I need to be a better blogger. HeeHee I think I said that last year. *rolls eyes* The tags used in my new banner are from Elle's Studio and LivingRoomFloor! I <3 tags!

Anyways can you tell I'm so ready for Valentine's Day? Ugh I love Valentine's Day! All the pretty colors and all the candy and goodies. Mmmmmm I'm feeling so creative this last week so I wanted to share some peeks of What I've been doing...






And when I get creative I get messy. HaHaHa Have a look for yourself... This is my desk and some closeups of what's on there.














Oh have you been to my Etsy shop? I've loaded lots of new kits. Some cute mini kits too. As a resolution for this year I decided to stay purged. LOL Another words if I'm not using it I want to be rid of it! Which means etsy kits more often. HaHa So have a look you miay like something in there. :)

Hey guess what? I'm almost 6 months pregnant now! Weeeeeeeeeeee. I am seriously having the best time being pregnant. I feel good! And I get to wear cute clothes. HeeHeeHee So I took this foto yesterday to share here! :) Can you see the little bump there?

YAY!!!! It's a baby! And this little baby moves sooooo much now! It's so adorable and I can't help smiling every time! This pregnancy has truly brought me so much joy. I forgot how exciting it is to be growing a little being inside myself. I thank God everyday for this child. I am truly a blessed girl.

We have not found out what we are having yet, but I'm pretty sure my schedule for next week will hold this info. I will shout it from the roof tops as soon as I find out, so you all will definitely hear me! HaHaHa

Oh and here are my layouts from Sweet Spuds January Kit. Can you tell I had a blast with it?!








Hope everyone is having an awesome weekend. Today I'm just kicking back relaxing. I love being in my pajamas all day. :P
