~Happy Spring...Happy Days....Happy People~

Good morning all you crazy crafters! :)

I had such a fun-busy day yesterday.
Yesterday was Easter Egg Hunt day at school.
It was a balmy 80 degrees too!
Here are a couple quick shots I got of my little Kindergartner.
**loves it**
So blessed to have a wonderful teacher this year and amazing parents to help
out in the classes, we have had a great first year in school!
Happy Easter!

I wanted to take one moment to share that Quilt Connection
and Hancock Fabrics in Murfreesboro TN have agreed
to be drop off locations for Conkerr Cancer.
It's a small thing but every bit helps and I am so excited about Conkerr
and what Nashville/Middle TN will bring to those kids!
If you don't know what Conkerr is, please check it out.

Ok on to scrapbooking today!
More reveals from SFTIO kits! :)

You know I break all the rules for scrapbooking, so this layout
is not different...where do I start? LOL
It's about me to begin with not my boys...
it has NO pictures *gasp* and I left the staples showing! *double gasp* LOL
But I love it, Love it so much.
You notice I journaled "There will be no abuse in her life anymore"
Because when I think of courage and myself, the only thing that really
comes to mind is being able to leave my ex husband and surviving
all that he did to me. I don't even feel that was courage as much as just
pure survival mode. Nonetheless, totally true, never again. :)

Oh and some SVG files for Easter!
A cute Bunny and more.
FREE so feel free to share.

Now, I have a fun GIVEAWAY for my online friends today!
What about a very cool set of stamps?!
All you have to do is leave a comment, be a follower and that's it.
I mean what could be easier?
If you have not been part of my blog for long
I do giveaways all the time because I love crafting and if I find
a great deal I usually pick up two, one to share and one for me :)
It's all about sharing the crafty love!

I will pick a winner randomly on Monday!
So leave me a comment, let me know your alive and kicking!
I have some Cri-Kit pens to give away shortly
and more stamps coming up too!

~Have a beautiful weekend~
~Thank you for stopping by and saying hey~

I love your layout. I believe there are no rules for scrapping. When I started, my friends used CM and I didn't like their pages so I just did my own thing!

Well, I am alive (but not kicking). Anyway, just wanted to tell you that it is so brave to scrapbook and share your story. I have lupus and some other diseases, and I have never had the nerve to do a layout that gets all of my feelings out. Maybe one day... Thanks for a chance to win the stamp. And, as always, enjoyed your post!
