Just so you know...

A little post, just to let you know about a couple of cool things.

The first one is an awesome sale on all danimoy designs' products. She's celebrating Halloween by putting everything at 40% off!! (the ad is linked to the store, go get some goodies)


The second thing I wanted to let you know about is a great place in Scrapland, called MyMemories! I like it for a few reasons. First they have a metric ton of designers, so there is something for everyone, in every style and for every occasion. It is also the place where 3 of the former Scrap That Idea designers sell their awesome designs: Sara (Sweet Blossom Designs), Mel (Mel Hains designs) and Vicki (A Work In Progress). Finally, they have promotions, free kits, contests and challenges on the blog, and those are always fun for inspiration. And I have to say they are VERY generous there. I won a contest a few months ago, and my coupon was somehow forgotten. So I sent a few small reminders once in a while, to see if I could get my $10 coupon (because I really liked the designer whose store it was for: Ettes and company). A couple days ago, I finally got a reply and Lisa was VERY apologetic and super nice. Then the coupon didn't work for some reason... And her solution for me was to make me a new coupon for $50!!!!! How generous was that, I was blown away. So thanks Lisa and MyMemories and take a look at what I got:

A Sunshiny Day by Sweet Blossom Designs

A Touch of Fall (plus the Borders and the Frames) by Lindsay Jane

Ready for School (and Wordart 1 and the Extras) by Connie Prince

Time4Me (the kits, the Extras, the Flairs, the Wordart, the Alpha, the Clusters!!) by Ettes and Company

And finally It Happened This Year (and the matching Flairs) by Connie Prince

Can you believe the shopping spree?!?!?! The hardest part was choosing, but I'm so happy! Now I have to use them, lol. I'm planning on using this last one to make my 2012 calendar, so that should keep me busy a while!
Thanks for looking, check out the danimoy designs sale and MyMemories this week-end ;)

How do you like your eggs?

I'm asking because Artgal Style likes them Over Easy, lol. It's the name of her new, breakfast themed, awesome kit!

I used it to scrap my little man starting the year with a yummy brunch:

Thanks for looking ;)

Haywire

That might be how I feel, some if not most of the time, but it's mostly the name of Artgal Style's new awesome kit.
It has beautiful elements, some glitter, and some subtly fall colours. It's a fall kit with an awesome twist, I LOVE it!!

Take a look at this brand new kit:

And here's my layout with it. It's a recent photo I took myself of Cédric and me and I love it. And I also quite like how the layout turned out ;)

Thanks for looking, say hi if you'd like ;)

October

Well, there's no denying it, it's October! It's crazy that it's already the 10th... I feel like the month just started, and that's why I just just made my desktop (I guess I have two thirds of the month left to enjoy it...).
I still have to prepare my house for our trip to Jamaica in 3 weeks (my in-laws are staying over to watch our son, so it has to be CLEAN), figure out how to make Halloween treats with no dairy and no gluten, and plan our costumes.

For now, let me show you the super cute kit I used for my desktop. It's a kit by Colie's Corner called In The Woods. It's nicely "fally" and the colours are very rich, and there is a bunch of adorable animals, so cute I had to use them all.

That's the cute kit, but I recommend grabbing the bundle where you get awesome clusters, wordart, QPs and templates for only $7!!

If you look on the bundle preview, you'll notice I started with one of the clusters, but I wanted to put all the animals, and the mushrooms, so I built on it :D

I made if for the challenge at Scrapable of course, come play with us in the challenges ;)
I'm off to enjoy a family day off on this gorgeous Canadian Thanksgiving Monday!!
Thanks for looking!

Touch of Autumn

Colie's Corner and her CT lead have asked me to stay on the CT, yay!!!
So today I get to show you Touch of Autumn, a beautiful fall kit, with the cutest fally elements and a gorgeous colour scheme.
I used it to scrap a photo of a single birch leaf that fell on my deck and was full of little rain drops. I love that pic!!

Here's the kit, linked to the store ;)

And here's my layout:

Thanks for looking!

A quick challenge

Today I was inspired by the theme of the MyMemories blog challenge, and I knew I wanted to use danimoy designs' See You Latte for it. I actually LOVE the kit, the colours are so soothing, and the elements just gorgeous.
As it was super last minute and I'm off to bed, I'm keeping this short, so here's the layout:

Thanks for looking ;)
