Hello!

Kathryn over at "The Scrapbeach" (Or "Kathryn Scraps") is having a layout week where she posts a new layout each day along with a sketch, video and prize to be won for following the sketch!  I have been slacking on my scrapbooking and thought this would be the perfect opportunity to get back into it.  Here is her day one project: The Day I Met You.  And here is my take on her sketch:

What do you think?  This is from Halloween last year.  The cutie in the blue Fairy costume is my daughter, Danika! :)

All during the month of June I am offering 10% off your orders when you order through me.  Please contact me for details!!!

Stamp of the Month: A Flowering Bunch Make your artwork bloom! For bloomin’ cute artwork, the My Acrylix® A Flowering Bunch stamp set is the perfect choice. There are adorable floral images that make projects blossom. And don’t forget the sentiments that make a great layout title or thank-you card sentiment. Whatever the occasion, your artwork will bloom with A Flowering Bunch! During the month of June only, you can receive the A Flowering Bunch stamp set for only $5 when you spend $50. See the June 2013 Stamp of the Month  Patterned Pennants Bring texture and sunshine to your artwork! Ready for fun in the sun? Summer is here and so are the sunny rays of the Patterned Pennants stamp set. Use these summer images to document your waves of warm-weather memories. The myriad of versatile patterns on each pennant can be used as individual embellishments, stamped repeatedly for a background pattern or custom B&T paper, masked to create a particular patterned shape, and more! Bring your summer projects to life with colorful rays created with the Patterned Pennants stamp set! Take a look at the Patterned Pennants stamp set Let’s Get Patriotic—Stamp Style! A portion of every sale of our new patriotic stamp sets will be donated to support the military With Flag Day, Independence Day, Canada Day, and more right around the corner, now is the perfect time to celebrate military service and promote patriotism with our three new patriotic stamp sets—only available for a limited time from June 1 – July 31, 2013! One B-size stamp set and two D-size stamp sets were created specifically to celebrate independence and freedom. The best part is that $5 from every patriotic D-size stamp set and $3 from every patriotic B-size stamp set sold will benefit a military-support charitable organization. Donations in the US will be made to the USO, the leading, most recognized military-support and services organization in the country. Donations in Canada will be made to the Canadian Hero Fund, which supports spouses and children of fallen Canadian military troops by helping provide post-secondary education funds. Show your military support and patriotism by purchasing your very own patriotic stamp set today. We love our troops! See the exclusive patriotic stamp sets »

Hello!  Did you come from Becky's Blog?  If so, thank you so much for stopping by.  If not, you should read the touching story of how Becky Higgins (creator of Project Life) is trying to help her brother Jonathan's family during this incredibly hard time.

Feel free to look around my blog (even though I have been really bad about keeping it up to date lately) or browse my Close To My Heart site. Maybe you can find some things to add to your Project Life Kits! Or maybe you just want to treat yourself to some new stamps and scrapbooking supplies! :)  In addition to the donation I gave for the ad on Becky's blog, 10% of my total sales (before tax and shipping) during September and October will also be given to Jonathan.  So how about helping them out a little.... every penny counts! Go here to start shopping now!
