$2 Tuesday!

Good morning, and welcome to another $2 Tuesday.


For those who care, today is the LAST Tuesday of summer break...yippppeeeee!!!!! Don't get me wrong, I LOVE my kids, but I am so ready to do without the annoyance of their constant bickering...it's been a long hot summer. So let's head into fall! We sure could use it here in North Texas as it is still above 100 degrees most every day. Ugh. The advent of fall brings to mind the awesome State Fair of Texas! I know other states are already having their state fairs, not to mention county fairs and markets everywhere! Why am I blathering about all of this instead of showing you the kits? LOL It's because the kits relate to this kind of stuff! Designs by Snowlady has "At the Fair" in the bin (see, I told you it was related!):



She also has "Woodland Critters" available in the $2 bin. You can use it to scrap all of the cute little critters that come out when the weather cools off!!!


So go see what all is in the bin this week and happy scrapping!

Pretty new kit from Scrappy Cocoa!

Steph released a new kit yesterday, but I was out of it most of the day with a migraine, so I'm blogging this morning. And guess what!? It's raining!!!! I know for some of you that's not very exciting, but for us here in north Texas where we've had soooo many 100+ degree days and NO rain (nope, not even a drop!) for a couple months, a little rain is something to do a happy dance over! :)

OK, on to the kit! It's a beautiful flowery kit with a French garden feel. The papers are so pretty and the elements are very elegant. So here it is:


I told you it was pretty! Here is what I did with it:


You can pick this beautiful kit up for yourself at one of Scrappy Cocoa's stores Gingerscraps , DSS or her newest store at NDSB .

Thanks for stopping by. Have a great weekend and be sure to stop by late next week for some new kits and some freebies, too!

Life's A Dance from Scrappin Serenity and a *freebie*

I was so excited to play with this new kit from Scrappin Serenity. See, Life's A Dance is a GIRLIE GIRL kit!!! And as you know, I have boys. So my experience with tutus, ballet slippers, a pirouettes is limited. Fortunately, my sweet grandgirls are nothing if not girlie girls, so they filled in for my boys this time around! As you may have gathered, this is a very girly kit...full of pinks, greens and all things little ballerina! So here it is:


She also made a quickpage set:


Both are on sale for $2 each for a limited time only!

And here are my LOs, starring two of my grandgirls in all of their tutu'd glory:
