~FRIDAY!!!!! Time for some FUN~

Good morning all you lovely crafters!

Today is the Sassy Lil' Sketches, Dirty Scraps, ScrapFit Blog Hop!
So get to hopping! There is a GREAT challenge and
fun prizes as well!

Here is what I created for the Blog Hop,
you can also find it on Dirty Scraps
a long lost friend found me and sent me a picture
of myself many moons ago...Don't you love Sassafras Lass?! I know I do!
I always struggle with sketches, so I decided to just go with the flow
and if it was not perfectly matched to the sketch it was ok! :)
Of course I am in LOVE with my Helmar adhesive, I used the Scrap Dots
on this one for dimension and they rock! They do take a little bit
to dry, so I have found putting the dimension on last is best,
but they hold really well so it is worth the time.

OK I am off to get ready for this weekend!
~Have a great Friday~
~Thanks for popping by to say hey~
~Pinky~

~It's the first! Full of fun reveals!~

Where oh where do I begin???

Let's begin with
Scrapbooking From The Inside Out...
You know they are near and dear to my heart and this month
I am yet again WOWED by the kit, I can honestly say I scrapped 3 layouts
in one day, layout after layout because I was so inspired!
That rarely happens but this kit just flowed for me...

February's kit theme is PASSION and I am so passionate about it.
This is just one of the layouts I created with it,
I will be revealing all week :)
How beautiful is this paper and the embellies totally made me drool.
I made the lace flower myself and the ribbon flower
is from the kit ribbon! :)
I wanted the entire layout to be soft and beautiful so I softened the picture
before I printed it, I *heart* Photoshop.

On to more NEWS!
Imaginisce is starting a new monthly sketch challenge with PRIZES!
Here is my take on the sketch I used Scooter's Vacation from Imaginisce
And some Magic Mesh :)

Here is the FUN part!
YOU can win if you play along!
So get to scrapping people, I know you rock the scrap world
So share your talent with Imaginisce!
OK on to the next FUN REVEAL!
SCRAPFIT asked me to guest DT this month.
You know Scrapfit has a great challenge blog that keeps you hopping!
Kelly the owner is a peach and she used my Lingerie cards as a template
for the challenge this month!
I have not done one of these in a while but I love making them :)
You know these are great for V-day especially for friends or if you are alone.
Because they really show the "support" on those crazy days :)
I think I will be mailing mine to a gf who is always there for me,
hmm...maybe I should make 20 LOL
Oh and I actually used the SFTIO Feb Kit for the Bra Card too! :)

OK you have all the LINKS!
So go visit these fun PINKY endorsed sites, I will not play in a place
that is not friendly and KIND so you know these places rock!

I hope you have a great February 1st
my boys are home so I am going to have a great MOM day!
~Have a great day~

~Friday! Finally precious Friday! hehe

Morning all you beautiful crafters, another

beautiful day in Middle Tennessee.
Yesterday's burst of sun really rejuvenated me.
Today the new Challenge for ScrapFit is up and running!

Since this was our last workout as the current DT
Challenge #12 was
Weight Lifting
Pick a LO that another DT member has done in Workouts 1-11 and lift it.
Here is the Layout I "lifted" by the beautiful HeatherI did not want to stray too much from it
so here is my version...I used the January KIT from Timeless Daydreams
I LOVE this kit!
I wish I had been able to photograph this better,
I need tips on photographing blue in the winter with no sun LOL
OK that's it for me today, I need to get to work
it has been a long and productive week! Time to get ready
for some good old fashioned relaxing LOL!

Thanks ScrapFit for having me as a DT, I loved
doing it and am excited to see where you go because I know
it is going to be BIG!
