I'm LATE, I'm LATE .... for a VERY important date!!!

Well, as Tara mentioned tonight in the chatroom, "when it rains, it pours" or it's a DRY spell!!! Even the BIGGEST digital umbrella could not stop the FLOOD in my list of "things to do"!!! ROFL ... but then, I 'd much rather have TOO much to do than not enough, wouldn't you?

I said that I would post PREVIEWS of the "You Don't Know Jack" brag book for those who have already attended Pam's, "Creative Crafty Crop" earlier this evening OR for those who still wish to participate. I haven't checked Pam's thread in the forum yet, so I am not sure what the deadline is but will update as soon as I am privy to the info!!! Pam gave out two of the pages as Attendance Gifts for attending the crop and will give the rest of the BRAG BOOK as a POSTING BONUS to those who complete their project and post to the Creative Crafty Crop gallery. Again, I will check the details and post here for you.

I am just wrapping up my FIRST Half-n-Half kit, "A Thankfall Heart" and should have it in the store LATE tonight or EARLY morning!!! Not sure why, but I've just sort of struggled a bit with this one. I think it had to do with trying out some new AWESOME "rustic" styles and playing around with them and then deciding to leave them in their NATURAL state!!! I will post a PREVIEW of "A Thankfall Heart" tomorrow morning.

I could not find a color palette that would JUMP right out at me, so I created my own and hope y'all like it!

Okay, enough jabbering-jibberish!!! I get SUPER wound-up when I'm tired and can talk and/or type 100 miles per hour!!!

SWEET DREAMS everybody!

Hugs, Linda :)

COMING UP FOR SOME AIR!!!

Join us in the 3Scrapateers CHATROOM

I am drowning in Photoshop as of late and have come up for some air and to visit with y'all!!! When I've had a LONG day, it is SO wonderful to "pop" in and see what everyone has been up to! I'd like to thank EVERYONE for your WONDERFUL comments and sharing a bit of yourself with me! Y'all RAWK!!!

I've just completed my VERY first "brag book", which was made with, of course, my "You Don't Know Jack" scrapkit which is on SALE for ONLY $4.50 through October 31st!!! LOL! I think I shall have to think (hmmm ... did I just say that? lol!) about renaming this kit because y'all DO KNOW JACK and quite well by now I'd say, wouldn't you? He, he ...

Pam, our resident CRAFTING QUEEN at 3Scrapateers is having her MONTHLY "Creative Crafty Crop" in the 3S chatroom at 9:00 pm EST, TONIGHT, and will be featuring my "You Don't Know Jack" scrapkit in her VERY specially prepared craft for the month of October!!!

I have created this DARLING Halloween brag book for y'all to receive FREE by attending Pam's crop and posting your project to the gallery by the deadline that Pam will give you in the CHATROOM!!!

Pam has an ENDLESS supply of crafting ideas and I am SO jazzed about her upcoming "12 Days of Christmas and Hanukkah" class, which begins October 15 and is ONLY $15 for a TOTAL of 12 CRAFTS, which will help to whittle down those Christmas shopping lists VERY quickly!!! WOW!!! That's just a few pennies over ONE DOLLAR per craft template that Pam will have for us!!! The class runs for a period of four weeks! You may find all the information HERE.

I wish to invite y'all to join Pam (I hope to drop in for a while as I am working on my FIRST Half-n-Half scrapkit which will be uploaded into the store tomorrow evening - WOO HOO!!!) TONIGHT for a FUN time and a REALLY "kewl" craft project. I am posting an image so that you can see EXACTLY what the project is and I WILL also post PREVIEWS of the BRAG BOOK, that you can earn for FREE by attending the crop and participating in the craft project, later on TODAY!!!

We look forward to seeing you in the CHATROOM tonight and as ALWAYS ...

BON SCRAPATIT!

It's time for a FABULOUS FRIDAY FREEIBE from Bon Scrapatit Designs!!!

CLICK ON IMAGE OR HERE TO DOWNLOAD

Hi y'all!!! How's EVERYBODY doing this FABULOUS FRIDAY night? Are y'all ready for the upcoming weekend? ANY exceptional plans? Anyone working on WINTERIZING their homes?

Robert will be cutting wood tomorrow next door on our landlord's property. We just recently bought a cord and a half of cedar (we LOVE the smell, although it does burn much faster than oak) and our landlord has been kind enough to offer up an oak and a pine tree that have fallen and are ALREADY seasoned!!! Robert will also be draining the swamp cooler and putting a cover on it as well as putting his birdhouses in safe and dry storage before the rains come.

This is TRULY our favorite time of the year!!! The air is already CRISP and COOL in the mornings and evenings! Robert came home yesterday from work with FOUR bottles of YUMMY liquid potpourri, most of which were our favorite scent for fall, Pumpkin Spice!!!

Robert is such a practical joker and all-around humerous gentlemen and he can pull off a good one without SO much as a smile on his face! NOT ME! I start busting up before I can even get two sentences out of my mouth!!! Anyhoo, I walked out into the living room and asked what that YUMMY smell was? He replied, "what does it smell like?". I wasn't sure but it was a bit on the sweet and delicious side and then I spotted one of our son's cup of tea on the counter and thought it was that. Of course, I was busy in here on the computer and didn't have time to be SO distracted!!!

My oldest son walks in from work and asks what it is that smells SO good? ROFL! We were none the wiser as Robert had pulled the wool over our eyes and had us thinking we were simply "smelling" things that were not there! This morning while putting towels away from the dryer, I happened to notice a partially used bottle of something sitting on the table in our spare room. Natuarally, I just had to take a CLOSER look as I'd not seen the bottle there before. And what to my wondering eyes should appear? A label that read POTPOURRI - FOOLED YOU dear!!! Okay, so I added in the last part!!! ROFL!

Now all I need to do is clean house this weekend and bring out the FALL decor and my darlin' Robert will be OVERJOYED!!! He has asked me twice now why I have not yet decorated! What a guy!

Okay, I'm sure that y'all have finally figured out that I do the majority of my blog postings LATE at night as that is the best time for me to do so without a MILLION distractions from all of the adults in my house!!! LOL!

I hope that you ENJOY this Friday's FREEBIE, which coordinates with my "You Dont' Know Jack" scrapkit, which can be found on sale through the month of October for ONLY $4.50 in my 3S STORE!

This week's FABULOUS FRIDAY FREEBIE includes:

4 - Background Papers (3 patterned, 1 solid)
1 - Patterned Slide
1 - Orange Tag
1 - 1 Yellow Metal Brad
1 - Orange/Black Multi-Bow
1 - Set of Yellow Metal Photo Prongs with Black Beads

This kit is HUGE and is done in TRADITIONAL Halloween colors of Orange, Yellow. Black and White. There are a TOTAL of 18 background papers and a PLETHORA of elements that will take you WAY beyond Halloween with all of the WONDERFULY patterned papers that will work well for MANY occasions and FESTIVE events. "You Dont' Know Jack" is PERFECT for girl and boy layouts, FALL, black and white themes (you'll LOVE the black and white checkered paper and alpha!), parties, outdoor fun and SO much more! If you look further down my blog, you will see the TWO previews!!!

I will be adding MORE coordinating FREEBIES through this month as I have MANY papers and elements that did not make it into the kit, SO make sure to stop by for each FABULOUS FRIDAY FREEBIE throughout the month of October to collect them all!
