You may remember me mentioning my friend Julie before and what a wonderful person and designer she is. Well, I have a great announcement! She is the newest designer at Plain Digital Wrapper!!!! And she truly deserves it! I strongly urge you to go check out her stuff!
Here is a layout I did with her Canyon kit.
And you know what else I have...a freebie for you :)
It's a Funky alpha that I was playing around with. It's just upper case.
Sorry Link ExpiredDo you know what drives me crazy? People who need to complain about every little thing. Don't they know how exhausting it is to the people around them? It can only be ignored for just so long before it drives people away. OK, done ranting...see, told you it was quick! Sorry :)
Now...the fun stuff!
I've been very busy this week...my daughter was the flower girl in a wedding so I had to do all the wedding party stuff that goes along with that. It was worth it in the end, my daughter was beautiful if I do say so myself. My husband got to relax for a little while instead of his usual work your fingers to the bone routine. And I got a few hours reprieve from chasing around a two year old, YAY! I thought I would share a few pics...because I just can't resist!
Here's the beautiful flower girl!!
That's it...I won't bombard you with the hundred plus pictures I took but I had to share those. Wanna see what else I did this week? I've been on a roll scrapping. Don't know what got into me but I'm likin' it :)
Everything from Britt-ish Designs GrabBag :)

This one was done for a technique Challenge at Hummie's World. I twisted the challenge a bit to make it work for my LO though *L*Wow, I've been a little MIA. Sorry. But I brought some fun stuff to show you now that I'm here :)
First, for those wondering about life with a new puppy. Aside from the potty accidents it's wonderful. Housetraining is such a chore but I have faith that it will work out in the end. I think I need to be a little "meaner" and crate him more often than I do. I just feel terrible since he spent the first 4 1/2 months of his life in a cage. And of course I have taken a ton of pictures! So here are a few of my favorites.
Here is where my son slept the first night we got the dog. Do you think he's excited?
The dog LOVES my daughter! How cute are they?
Dopey dog got his head stuck in the game jar!
Is it wrong to find this hysterical? While my daughter was walking the dog she ran into a tree!!
Ugh, how GROSS! Look at where I discovered my 2 year old!! He thinks it's a darn sandbox!
But how can you stay mad when they look like this?
I got a few layouts done this week too...how cool is that?

Everything from Greedz VeralynSunshine Wonder Week is in full swing! My speed scrap on Monday was a great success! I am so relieved that I wasn't the only one there *LOL* And on Thursday there is another one at 10 pm EST and I can't wait to be on the other end scrapping!
There are great new things added to Sun all the time and this week is no exception. In fact, we have a new way for you to win some of our great new stuff!!! If you blog about certain new products in the store and help us advertise than you will be entered into a drawing to win the kit you advertised! How cool is that?

And she has a matching alpha that I just LOVE!! In fact, it comes in 2 colors pink and blue.
Amy Sumrall did a Collab kit with Krystal Hartley called Ooh la la.
And for all you paper addicts out there like me, Kiki has a gorgeous new paper pack out called Haute Pink. Gorgeous shades of red and pink all in different textures.
Last, but absolutely not least is Lliella's new kit that comes out tomorrow.
And as if this post weren't long enough I thought I would share some of my recent LO's since I haven't posted one in ages!!
Background paper from Flergs' grabbagOK, I told you to mark your calendars...did you do it? Today is my speed scrap at Sunshine Studio Scraps! 3 PM EST!! I sure hope you show up!
And this is a special day for another reason too. Look what I received this morning!
So my husband asked me to meet him at my parents house tonight and when I walked in I found an early 30th birthday present waiting for me. I have always wanted a pug puppy and look what I got!!!!
OMG, he is SO cute and I love him to death already. I am slightly apprehensive since this is my first dog of my own and I need to house train him. But he is so sweet and fun and he is so good with the kids that I think it will be worth the work in the beginning. My cat is not too fond of him but I hope in time they will learn to ignore each other.
Last month during the daily download the Wonder Girls gave away an awesome kit they made called the Missing Bits and pieces of Yesterday. If you missed it you are in luck. We are all giving away our parts all over again. Just visit all the Wonder Girls blogs and you can have all the pieces. But please remember that Sunshine Wonder Week kicks off tomorrow!
