Happy St. Patrick’s Day!

Well here is my third layout using Scrap This Kit’s beautiful March kit. I have once again linked the photo if you want to see more. Today at Get It Scrapped I am challenging my scrappy buddys to post a layout that has them going “green” however they may interpret that. If they post today they are entered for a chance to win a prize. Want to know what it is? Huh? Huh? Do ya?


Oh O.K. I give! If you post today and then link your blog post or layout to the forums here at GIS, you are entered in a drawing for a $20.00 gift card to Scrap This Kit. Nice!

So go green and tell me about it. I will be watching!

Happy St. Patrick’s!

Blogging Challenge 3/12 – Scent

OK so I have missed so many of these! Over the next couple months though I am going to do them all. All the challenges have been so great so I will just spread them out and do them as i have time!

Jane challenged us this past Friday to let our noses share a favorite memory scent. you know the kind that not only triggers your taste buds but your memories. OK so not all scents trigger your taste buds!!! Work with me people!

I can think of a few memories that bubble up with scent triggers. Not many to be honest but I think that is because my sniffer is not always that sensitive. So most scents that I smell are strong ones, often from the kitchen but a few outside the home.

One scent that is a trigger for me is skunk. Yes not pleasant but true. I have never been at the receiving end but I do know the song and so does my family (from childhood) and my family now. Do you know it? There’s a dead skunk in the middle of the road, a dead skunk in the middle of the road, dead skunk in the middle of the road, stinkin to high heaven!… There is of course more as many of you are now singing on but if now trust me there is more. We sang that so many times…way too many I am sure, out of tune and as loud as we could make it. Boy did we love singing in the car. It reminds me of that. And now my girls sing it, just adding to the memories.

Today there is a wonderful scent in my home! Chocolate Chip Cookies!

Happy Monday!

St. Patricks Day is coming!

Well at GIS I am in charge of the challenge for March 17th so really it was a no brainer! We must scrap green!

Here are the rules;
1) Scrap a layout that either goes recycle green by reusing a product or packaging, or pick up some awesome green colored scrappy stuff and use it.
2) Post your layout ON March 17th no earlier, no later! Then let me know back at GIS that you got it up.

Prize!
Yep I am getting one of you a great prize for this one! No telling though, you just have to play to find out what it is, but I give good prizes, just ask anyone!

Now since I am not playing I am posting two of my layouts early. I have one more that just needs to be hooked together that I will post on the 17th. All three of these layouts come from my awesome friend’s kit club Scrap This Kit. Hit one of the layouts to see her site!

Now I will admit I added to this one here. The fairy is my work, the patterned paper and the “smile” are from the kit. Oh the buttons too!


On this layout I only added the twine and the small heart tag. The rest is all from this month’s kit at Scrap This Kit


I will have one more layout from this beautiful kit on the 17th and still more to play with! Besides that, Tami is doing a major giveaway right now so hurry! go! check it out now!

Happy St. Patrick’s a little early all!
