It's called Winter Romance. I really liked this kit when I first saw it, but really didn't have any need for the snowy elements. Then, we had a snow storm in Austin and I saw my chance to use this kit. You can find the kit at <a href="http://www.groovyscraps.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=80_81&products_id=29158&zenid=77dc79ece81e4b7b26e8d9e6dcb6b022">Groovy Scraps</a>.

It's on sale now for 40% off. <br /><br />The first layout I did was about our vacation last spring break. This shows you how far behind I am in my scrapbooking. This vacation was 11 months ago and I am just not scrapping it. I didn't really have any scrapping mojo for a couple of months. The new calling as ward historian and also doing the ADSR are really helping my mojo to come back.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/S33A09J6oII/AAAAAAAABa0/lAPaAZrkxOQ/s1600-h/lincoln+memorial.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/S33A09J6oII/AAAAAAAABa0/lAPaAZrkxOQ/s320/lincoln+memorial.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5439715940935311490" border="0" /></a>This second layout is for my mother-in-laws memorial book that should have been done before Christmas. Again, I will blame my lack of scrapping mojo for this one. It's getting closer to being done though. I have about 10 pages done, so half way. These are photos of Beth with some of her closest friends.<br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/S33AxwjVgSI/AAAAAAAABas/NAvqMJggOK8/s1600-h/beth+with+friends.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/S33AxwjVgSI/AAAAAAAABas/NAvqMJggOK8/s320/beth+with+friends.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5439715886012662050" border="0" /></a>Patricia Hodgehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08084619273130062462noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4714466675641037106.post-33672649089723391682010-02-14T22:13:00.005-06:002010-02-14T22:28:55.910-06:00ADSRIt's that time of year again. It's time for the Amazing Digiscrapping Race. This is the 3rd year I have done the race. It's a lot of fun and I learn a lot by doing the race. Here are my first 3 layouts for the race. The bottom one is first. I had to scraplift a layout from my partner, Rose. The layout had to be about her. Rose and I have been partners ever since we started doing the race 3 years ago. We have also been designers in the same stores through the years. I've retired from designing, but I think she still designs some. She and I are both into photography as well as scrapbooking. <br /><br />The middle layout is the 2nd challenge. This challenge had to have 5 photos, one of them had to include the number 5, I had to use 5 different fonts or alphas and journal about 5 things I love. I chose to do my family. My 5th photo is the number 5 itself. The last part of the challenge is to use 5 of the same element types. I used 5 different flowers. I love flowers on my pages. It's probably my most frequently used element type. When I was designing, my kits always had lots of flowers in them. <br /><br />The top challenge is the one I just finished today. The challenge was to use selective coloring on the photo. I turned the photo black and white, then made Jeremy back into color. The lightning bolt on his shirt really pops with the background being black and white. In addition to the selective coloring, there had to be at least 20 words of journaling and a date element. You can't just put the date on the layout with an alpha or font. It had to be a specific element to state the date. This date element was created by me last year for a collaborative kit I contributed too. I think it's rather unique. I don't know that I have ever seen it in another kit. It's not in anything I own.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/S3jKOduBF3I/AAAAAAAABaU/cRYtE7P5yA8/s1600-h/challenge+3.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/S3jKOduBF3I/AAAAAAAABaU/cRYtE7P5yA8/s320/challenge+3.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5438318899894490994" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/S3jKJP99MuI/AAAAAAAABaM/zk8dsgwh4BA/s1600-h/challenge+2-small.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/S3jKJP99MuI/AAAAAAAABaM/zk8dsgwh4BA/s320/challenge+2-small.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5438318810303902434" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/S3jKGNot68I/AAAAAAAABaE/xjdeD_khphY/s1600-h/challenge+1.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/S3jKGNot68I/AAAAAAAABaE/xjdeD_khphY/s320/challenge+1.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5438318758138342338" border="0" /></a>Patricia Hodgehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08084619273130062462noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4714466675641037106.post-40722594914689492032010-02-09T14:19:00.005-06:002010-02-09T15:03:05.904-06:00Morning Meadow<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/S3HNcUumCtI/AAAAAAAABZk/qjJAQfYNQCk/s1600-h/jeremy+in+april.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/S3HNcUumCtI/AAAAAAAABZk/qjJAQfYNQCk/s320/jeremy+in+april.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5436352111697070802" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/S3HEMBR972I/AAAAAAAABZc/G9alhDcgYXQ/s1600-h/folder.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/S3HEMBR972I/AAAAAAAABZc/G9alhDcgYXQ/s320/folder.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5436341935994171234" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/S3HEAScRQnI/AAAAAAAABZU/7sCzwuOCB1E/s1600-h/challenge+2-small.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/S3HEAScRQnI/AAAAAAAABZU/7sCzwuOCB1E/s320/challenge+2-small.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5436341734442353266" border="0" /></a><br />Here is my next 2 layouts for Kim's creative team. The one with all of my kids also happens to be my second layout for the Amazing Digiscrapping Race. This is the 3rd year I have done this race with Rose, my partner. It is a great way to get out of my comfort zone with scrapbooking. This kit is called Morning Meadow. It is beautiful.

This is a photo of my family taken the day Jeremy got baptized, January 16, 2010. We didn't do a good job of positioning because there is a shadow across Rachael's face. This shadow has shown up in most of my pics from that day. I can't believe I didn't notice this when I was taking the pictures. I should know better.Patricia Hodgehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08084619273130062462noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4714466675641037106.post-84991688628554595072010-02-05T13:11:00.004-06:002010-02-05T13:15:37.392-06:00Lovely Day<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/S2xtyipdezI/AAAAAAAABZE/pjKpQssX5G8/s1600-h/dranet-LovelyDay.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/S2xtyipdezI/AAAAAAAABZE/pjKpQssX5G8/s320/dranet-LovelyDay.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5434839565390936882" border="0" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/S2xtsKaYcYI/AAAAAAAABY8/rdjTizHhCBY/s1600-h/Jeremy+in+hershey+pa.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/S2xtsKaYcYI/AAAAAAAABY8/rdjTizHhCBY/s320/Jeremy+in+hershey+pa.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5434839455806026114" border="0" /></a><br />Here is my latest CT Layout. This one is for a kit called Lovely Day by Tracy Drane. She and Kim share their CT, so I get the benefit of being able to work with both of their products. The kit can be found at <a href="http://www.groovyscraps.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=80_82&products_id=2642">Groovy Scraps</a>. This is a picture of Jeremy taken on the bus tour at Hershey PA when we went there for vacation last March. He was enjoying a yummy pastry on the bus ride, then got a bunch of chocolate at the end of the bus ride. Hershey was a really fun place to visit. Next time we go, we want to go during the summer so we can go to the amusement park.Patricia Hodgehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08084619273130062462noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4714466675641037106.post-40485232268854184392010-02-02T13:54:00.002-06:002010-02-02T13:57:10.747-06:002nd Layout with Into the WildernessHere is the second layout with this kit.

I've been on there for a long time, but haven't really been active since I started designing. Now that my designing career is over, I decided I needed to get some scrapping done and get active in the CT again. Here is the first layout I have done for Kim in a long time. This layout is for our church scrapbook. I am going to be called as our ward historian soon. I'm taking over from a sister who is 96 years old. I've done several layouts in the past year for her and she always teases me that I am going to end up taking over for her when she gets released. I'm excited and nervous about this new calling, but I really think it will be fun. It will also get me back into scrapping. I haven't scrapped much in the last 4 months. I'd kinda lost my mojo, but I hope it's back. This kit is called Into the Wilderness. You can find it <a href="http://www.groovyscraps.com/shop/ind...oducts_id=2324">here</a>. It's currently 35% off, so you can get it for only $2.59.

It is called Rise and Shine. It is filled with these cute little critters as you can see on the preview. There are 10 papers, all unique and different along with 20 different elements. There are 2 elements that have been recolored twice each, so not a lot of duplicates is different colors. <br /><br />I have a special going on right now. If you spend $2.00 in my store, I will send you a coupon for this kit free.

It is such a fitting name for this sale since the Austin Texas area has been experiencing record breaking heat for the past 3 weeks. It wasn't as bad yesterday and today due to the "cold front" that came through. Unfortunately, the rain missed us this time. This past weekend, we had an Austin Oakhills Stake fast in hopes to bring rain to this area. We even had Jeremy fast. He did really well considering he is only 7. I won't force him to fast every month, but I think this was very important. I am very proud of him and how well he did.<br /><br />Anyway, I digress. Groovy Scraps is having a sale. My entire store will be 35% off July 8-15. You can find my store <a href="http://www.groovyscraps.com/shop/index.php?main_page=index&manufacturers_id=18">here</a>. I don't really have anything new in the store, but these 3 kits haven't been in the store long and I haven't really focused on them.<br /><br />While you are over at GS, check out our challenges. My challenge is something different each month. I get bored easily and didn't want it to always be the same. This month, it is a lyric challenge using the song 1-2-3-4 by the Plain White Ts. You can use all or part of the song. There are also several new designers at the store and that means lots of new challenges. If you find yourself stuck in a rut, jump over and check out all the cool, new challenges we have going on at GS.Patricia Hodgehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08084619273130062462noreply@blogger.com4tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4714466675641037106.post-87477072212221406002009-06-19T15:30:00.003-05:002009-06-19T15:40:30.047-05:00Father's day saleI have been sadly neglecting my designing and my store, but I am vowing to do better. I need to design more and advertise more. I think I have probably lost all of my viewers for my blog as I have only done 2 posts the entire year. You can tell by my sell figures too. I really do enjoy designing and I really want to design more.<br /><br />So, I am having a sale in honor of Father's day. Everything in my store is 50% off through Sunday. I have several new kits over the past few months. Some of them are from my recent personal use grab bag and then my new kit that I released in April. I hope to see you at Groovy Scraps. You can find my store<a href="http://www.groovyscraps.com/shop/index.php?main_page=index&manufacturers_id=18"> here</a>.<br /><br />In addition to my sale, I have also posted a new challenge. The challenge for June is to create a layout using all or part of the lyrics for the Plain White T's song "1 2 3 4". I love that song. It is so sweet. For completing my challenge, you will get my part of the collaborative kit "Island Luau". Here is a preview of the kit.

This is a blog about a tiny little baby named Crew. He was a twin born at 28 weeks. His twin brother passed away prior to birth due to twin to twin transfusion syndrome. Crew is fighting for his life now. He is progressing and doing really well for such a tiny little guy. I read this blog every day and I have added Crew to my prayers each day. You can read about him <a href="http://crewsjourney.blogspot.com/">here</a>. His mom is a digital scrapbooking designer also. The designers she sells with have created a kit to help the family pay for Crew's NICU cost, which will be huge, even with insurance. I didn't hesitate to purchase it. It is on sale at <a href="http://www.plaindigitalwrapper.com/shoppe/product.php?productid=3779">Plain Digital Wrapper.</a> I don't usually advertise for kits that are not my own, for my CT designers or from one of my stores, but this is an exception.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/STiP3RlGreI/AAAAAAAAA5A/vLtF5TDIbus/s1600-h/folder.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/STiP3RlGreI/AAAAAAAAA5A/vLtF5TDIbus/s320/folder.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5276125143239142882" border="0" /></a>I'm posting about this on both blogs. This is a very worthwhile kit. It is huge and adorable.<br /><br />When you say your prayers, please include Crew. He could use all the prayers he can get.Patricia Hodgehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08084619273130062462noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4714466675641037106.post-69996743067254101062008-12-02T08:46:00.003-06:002008-12-02T09:04:03.515-06:00Old Fashion Christmas Add-onI added a little bit onto my kit <a href="http://www.groovyscraps.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=80_89&products_id=295">"Old Fashion Christmas" </a>and redid the preview. I have learned so much about previews in the 14 months I have been designing. I used to think I needed to make the nice and neat so you could see everything that was in them. I have found people seem to like them better when they are a little messy. Go figure. <br /><br />I know there are a few isolated people who purchased my Old Fashion Christmas kit last year, so I am making the add-on available as a freebie on my blog. For those of you who may not have purchase it, right now is the perfect time to do so. It is on sale for 50% off. That makes this kit only $1.88. Some of the pictures I used in this kit remind me of Norman Rockwell photos of long ago. The Dover book I used was the best. I hope you enjoy this kit. Everything in my store is currently 50% off for the Christmas season. I will be slowly redoing my previews and maybe even adding to the kits I have in the store. I would love to see what you make with my kits, so feel free to give me a link to your gallery if you use something I made.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/STVKpZmRnrI/AAAAAAAAA4w/m5fimX7sIYY/s1600-h/folder.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/STVKpZmRnrI/AAAAAAAAA4w/m5fimX7sIYY/s320/folder.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5275204613640920754" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/STVKjqNixRI/AAAAAAAAA4o/VZDmC3K4tks/s1600-h/digiheaven_ofc_add-on_pr.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/STVKjqNixRI/AAAAAAAAA4o/VZDmC3K4tks/s320/digiheaven_ofc_add-on_pr.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5275204515021374738" border="0" /></a><br /><a href="http://www.4shared.com/file/74113395/e8170b1b/digiheaven_ofc_addon.html">download here</a><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;">My sister-in-law just emailed me some sad news.

The <a href="http://newsroom.lds.org/ldsnewsroom/eng/news-releases-stories/joseph-b-wirthlin-oldest-apostle-dies-age-91">little blurb</a> she sent said he worked in his office all the way up to Thanksgiving. He served the Lord all the way to the end. He will be missed, but I am sure he is enjoying a happy reunion with his wife.<br /></div></div>Patricia Hodgehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08084619273130062462noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4714466675641037106.post-15325415157864755252008-11-30T12:17:00.004-06:002008-11-30T12:36:23.268-06:00Blog award and 2 daily downloadsI got a blog award from one of my former CT members, <a href="http://robinlscraps.blogspot.com/">Robin</a>. I need to list 7 things I am thankful for. This is an easy one for me as I have a lot to be thankful for. I am also suppose to tag 7 people, but I don't really like trying to tag people, so if you read this, then consider yourself tagged.<br />1. My amazing husband<br />2. My 3 great kids (I could have listed them individually, but I thought that was cheating)<br />3. each day that I have with my mother-in-law<br />4. My husband's job<br />5. The restored gospel of Jesus Christ<br />6. The chance to live in a free country<br />7. My parents, brothers and sisters<br /><br /><a href="http://www.groovyscraps.com/">Groovy Scraps</a> will be starting a Christmas daily download starting tomorrow. It will run through Christmas day or eve, I can't remember which. When you go to the forum area at GS, then click on downloads on the top bar. Each download will be available for only 24 hours. At the end, you will end up with the entire kit, called Santa's Kiss. These are the 2 days I have contributed. Mine will be available on the 15th and the 24th. Along with the daily download, my entire store will be on sale for 50% off through the 24th. I don't have anything new in the store, sorry.

This kit can be purchased at<a href="http://www.groovyscraps.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=148&products_id=1027"> Groovy Scraps</a>. It is a steal at only $6.00.

The end of the month snuck up on me though. I am going to be retiring, sort of. Life has just gotten so busy that I can't keep up with everything. I can't find time to design much and the stress of having to get a certain number of products in the stores each month, plus collaborative kits for each site was too much for me. I didn't have any time with my family and I didn't like that. I am having a huge sale at each of my stores. Everything is 50% off at Scraphead, Scrapper's Zone and Studio Style Designs. You can find the link in my side bar. <br /><br />I will be staying on at Groovy Scraps to do some charity kits and their monthly collaborative kits. I doubt I will put anything in the store. If I decide to design anything, I will give it away for free on my blog. <br /><br />Thanks to all of you who have bought my products and downloaded my freebies. My family is the most important thing to me and it is very important that I have time with them. I made a go at digital designing when I couldn't work and my family really needed the money. I was blessed to get on in several stores very quickly. I did not make the kind of money I had hoped to, but I really enjoyed the process. It gave me something even more important. I needed some sort of distraction during a very difficult time in my life and designing provided that for me. As I was typing, that came to me-an epiphany as to why I was getting accepted to all of these stores. I think that distraction was the most important thing for me during that time. Things are much better now. I feel better, I have an answer as to what is wrong with me and I have a treatment plan to help some. Having MS has brought many blessing to me. I never thought such a horrible disease could bring so many blessings.<br /><br />Speaking of MS, I will have a charity kit for the National MS Society in stores soon. It is a collaborative kit by some of the designers at Groovy Scraps. As soon as it is in the store, I will post about it.<br /><br />So, take advantage of my retirement sales for the rest of the week. I hope you find some great deals and find something you like.Patricia Hodgehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08084619273130062462noreply@blogger.com7tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4714466675641037106.post-15184780198472459082008-10-06T14:31:00.002-05:002008-10-06T14:35:04.794-05:00Big oopsSomeone pointed out to me that they did not get brag book pages. Instead, they got my part of the Daily Download for this month. It seems I goofed. I picked the wrong file when I uploaded the brag book pages. I did instead put my entire part of the kit. Here is the corrected link for the brag book pages. For those of you who downloaded the initial zip, I hope you enjoy my part of the daily download. This is what I get for trying to post a freebie while I am also trying to go out of town.<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/SOpoNIu7XtI/AAAAAAAAAy0/u7Dg-jDzY8A/s1600-h/digiheaven_nightmare_bbpr.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/SOpoNIu7XtI/AAAAAAAAAy0/u7Dg-jDzY8A/s320/digiheaven_nightmare_bbpr.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5254126490173005522" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.4shared.com/file/65914397/1d40dbc9/digiheaven_nightmare_bb.html">Download here</a><br /></div>Patricia Hodgehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08084619273130062462noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4714466675641037106.post-10359269083900472002008-10-01T05:51:00.004-05:002008-10-06T14:35:38.839-05:00Nightmare at ScrapheadHalloween is now a month away. The <a href="http://www.scraphead.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=13">daily download </a>at Scraphead this month is called "Nightmare at Scraphead". It is a Halloween themed kit. It is adorable. I don't have a preview of the entire thing since it is a daily download and we only do previews for the individual day. I do have a treat for you though. We are doing a blog train with brag book pages from the daily download. <a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/SONXcepkUOI/AAAAAAAAAys/vygWFEtsnHs/s1600-h/digiheaven_nightmare_bbpr.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_rN87FHVIsJY/SONXcepkUOI/AAAAAAAAAys/vygWFEtsnHs/s320/digiheaven_nightmare_bbpr.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5252137737219494114" border="0" /></a><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><a href="http://www.4shared.com/file/65206977/73fa6269/digiheaven_Nightmare_at_Scraphead.html"></a>link removed-see above post<br /><br /><br /><br /><div style="text-align: left;">Since this is a blog train, here are the other participants. I am posting this in the wee hours of the morning. The others may not have their part up yet. If they don't, please check back later to get their part. Also, please check out our forum at Scraphead to get the entire kit, day by day, so you can make your own full sized LO for you little trick-or-treaters. I think this is all of them. If I find out differently, I will add the new links. I hope you enjoy these brag books.<br /><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div></div>Tiffani <a href="http://totallyrawkindesigns.blogspot.com/">http://totallyrawki<wbr>ndesigns.<wbr>blogspot.<wbr>com</a><br /><br />Snowraven <a href="http://silversnowyraven.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">http://silversnowyr<wbr>aven.blogspot.<wbr>com</a><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div>Renata <a href="http://www.serenebyrw.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">http://www.sereneby<wbr>rw.blogspot.<wbr>com</a><div> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> </div>Creations by Rachael <a href="http://www.creationsbyrachael.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">http://www.creation<wbr>sbyrachael.<wbr>blogspot.<wbr>com</a><div style="text-align: center;"> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> </div>By God's design <a href="http://digibygodsdesign.biz/" target="_blank">http://digibygodsde<wbr>sign.biz</a> <div style="text-align: center;"> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> </div>Jennifer Wambach <a href="http://jennartdesign.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">http://jennartdesig<wbr>n.blogspot.<wbr>com/</a><div style="text-align: center;"> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> </div>MoveFearlessly Designs <a href="http://movefearlessly.com/blog/" target="_blank">http://movefearless<wbr>ly.com/blog/</a><div style="text-align: center;"> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> </div>Cathy Joes Designs <a href="http://cathyjoeskorner.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">http://cathyjoeskor<wbr>ner.blogspot.<wbr>com/</a><div style="text-align: center;"> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> </div>Sherry D <a href="http://ambrosiaartsva.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">http://ambrosiaarts<wbr>va.blogspot.<wbr>com/</a><div style="text-align: center;"> </div> <div style="text-align: center;"> </div>Cindy Ritter <a href="http://cindyritterdigiscrap.blogspot.com/" target="_blank">http://cindyritterd<wbr>igiscrap.<wbr>blogspot.<wbr>com/</a><div style="text-align: center;"><br />Michelle Powell, aka Kutnkudly-<a href="http://scrapheadspot.blogspot.com/">http://scrapheadspot.blogspot.com/ </a><br /><br /><br /><br /></div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div>Patricia Hodgehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08084619273130062462noreply@blogger.com9tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4714466675641037106.post-66965283910409289872008-09-17T11:07:00.001-05:002008-09-17T11:07:31.017-05:00Birthday Celebration<div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'><div align='center'><div align='left'>My family has so many birthdays in September. My BIL had a birthday on<br />the 6th, my daughter's best friend (she is like my adopted daughter)<br />had a birthday on the 5th. My niece had a birthday on the 15th. My<br />birthday is coming up on the 23rd. Lastly, my son Andrew, has a<br />birthday on the 29th. With all of those birthdays, I decided I would<br />have a birthday sale. This sale is going on in all of my stores.<br />Everything will be 50% off starting the 15th and ending the 30th of<br />September.<br/></div><br/><br/><img alt='digiheaven_birthdaysale.jpg picture by digiheaven' src='http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/nn2/digiheaven/ads/digiheaven_birthdaysale.jpg?t=1221666624' id='fullSizedImage'/><br/><br/><div align='left'>One of my fellow designers at Scraphead, Cassel, has a bunch of new PSP scripts in her store.

It has been quite a while since I have had a freebie. I'm sorry. Truth is, I haven't been able to get much designing done at all the past few months. I have been focusing on my family and my health. I did start this kit during the Olympics. I got a few papers done and some flowers and ribbons. I also made gold, silver and bronze metals, but then I got busy and didn't finish it. I feel a little silly putting an Olympic kit in the store when the Olympics have been over for almost a month. So, I am going to give away the papers I made for this kit. I hope you enjoy them. Maybe I'll give away the elements I have made at a later date.<br/><br/><div align='center'><img alt='digiheaven_olympic_preview.jpg picture by digiheaven' src='http://i300.photobucket.com/albums/nn2/digiheaven/ads/digiheaven_olympic_preview.jpg?t=1221667329' id='fullSizedImage'/><br/></div><br/><div align='center'><a href='http://www.4shared.com/file/63371574/6492c881/digiheaven_Olympic_papers.html' target='_blank'>Download here</a><br/></div></div></div></div></div></div>Patricia Hodgehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08084619273130062462noreply@blogger.com3tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4714466675641037106.post-80399374415908727332008-09-11T10:35:00.001-05:002008-09-11T10:35:36.949-05:00Patriot Day chat and sale<div xmlns='http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml'>I know it has been a while since I have blogged. Things have been busy in my real life. I haven't had much time to do anything with designing lately. I have been trying to get school work going consistently with the kids lately. My teenage daughter got her learners permit yesterday, so we will start the driving part of driver's ed soon. It is a scary thought, but I am excited for her. She is pretty responsible, but she can be a little scatter brained at times. I have told her she is forbidden to talk on the phone while she is driving until she is at least 18. The State of Texas backed me up. We learned last week that it is illegal for teenagers to drive and talk on the phone.<br/><br/>Now for a little bit of designing news. At Groovy Scraps, we are having a sale. We are calling it Patriot day. This sale is on anything patriotic. The sales is for today and tomorrow. All patriotic kits are 50% off.
