Update from me..

Sorry I haven't gotten much posted. I rather not repeat the last few months and now this month. I feel that I owe you all an explaination. Firstly I was sick for 6 weeks. I lost my grandpa and then was sick again. Then I lost my uncle and now sick again. Then this month. Dh got let go from his new job the end of the first week of this month. Again! He had been laid off before that from where he worked for 10 yrs. After a few months he got hired in as a temp at the new place. We were thrilled, it was a major paycut but it was only 15 minutes away from the house. Once he got hired in full time his pay would have went up. But with the Auto Industry struggling and where we live most jobs are tied to them in some way. Some big orders were cancelled and they had to let DH and 3 others go. He had to wait until the 15th to call unemployment. He called and they said he's eligible, but instead of the normal a check being mailed in a day or 2, he has to call back now the 24th. So no money coming in for us.
I normally love the Christmas Season, baking cookies, buying gifts, and all the wrapping, everything! But I am so down this year. At first we thought okay it will just be a very small Christmas, but now with this problem with unemployment. We still have a 20yr old (with disabilities), a 17yr old, and my 3yr old grand-daughter here with us, and I get down thinking that they will not have much of anything for Christmas. Okay enough of the depressing stuff! If you've read through all this thank you so much!
I've added a donate button on the right side now. So if you'd like to help me out that would be great. If not that's fine too! lol I have been working on a surprise freebie for Christmas for everyone. Hopefully I can get it finished and posted by the end of the weekend coming up!

So I have been put through the mill lately. I have been given a couple awards. Thank you so much ladies! I really am thrilled. I promise to try and pick out my choices and get them posted tomorrow.

Forest Beauty

My very first kit. As I've mentioned I have been taking lessons to learn to make scrap stuff. Well I figured along the way I might as well create a kit! I got my inspiration for this from a photo of the rainforest. So that's where the name came from...lol I hope that you all like it! I sure had fun making it! This kit is tagger size, I create everything full size for digital scrapping myself, but I am unable to get files that size uploaded at this time.

This kit has 46 pieces. Loads of elements, ribbons, wraps, buttons, brads, bows, flowers, stickers, frames, embellisments, charms, tags, an alpha, & 7 papers. And I'm sure I left something out..lol

Most of the elements in the preview have been resized by 40-50%.

Okay...

so I have slowed down on my lessons.. lol I guess I need to push myself to get back creating. I do miss creating but I open PSP and I just don't have any umph to create anything scrap. Hopefully I'll get my mojo back and start creating again soon.

Welcome

Welcome to my new Blog. I've been psp'ing for about 5yrs now. I've made signature tags, tried my hand at tubing and making web pages. The digital scrapbooking bug has bitten me...lol So here I am. I thought I would create a Blog to share my creations with you. Why the name?? Well I tend to jump all over the place and do a little of this n that. So there is no telling what I might come up with.
