It's FRIDAY!! This felt like the week that wouldn't end. In between driving the school bus and keeping things going here, I was able to get a couple layouts done. I used the <a href="http://www.digitalscrapbookingstudio.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=13_133&products_id=6797">Vintage Spring Page Kit</a> by Linda Cumberland, and two of my granddaughters provided the inspiration.<br />

Looking at the previous post I guess it has.. Old news is that the KISS site has long been closed... Life goes on.. You will now find Cheryl McCain at <a href="http://digizinesdzines.com/DigiZinesStudioBlog/">DigiZines Studio</a> as Co-Owner/Designer along with Terri Hanson. The site is a great place to visit and Cheryl is back to designing wonderful kits with a Vintage/Heritage theme.<br />
<br />
I have recently gone back to scrapping after a long hiatus. I needed time to breathe again and relax after the closing of TSG and then KISS... I am happy to say I am recharged again and ready to get back into the saddle. I will be taking it slow and easy though. More happy news is that I joined <a href="http://linda-scrappingcorner.blogspot.com/">Linda Cumberland</a> who as everyone will remember was one of the wonderful designers from The Scrapping Garden. I am now working on Linda's Creative Team. I hope to make many LO's for Linda and am hoping to offer a Quick Page or two here on my blog from time to time. You can find Linda's store at Digital Scrapping Studio, or just The Studio<a href="http://www.digitalscrapbookingstudio.com/store/index.php?main_page=index&cPath=13_133"> HERE</a>. I joined <a href="https://www.digitalscrapbookingstudio.com/forum/">The Studio forum</a> and it looks like a homey place to spend some time. They offer challenges and chats just like TSG did. If anyone is interested in checking out a new site I suggest you look there :)<br />

She woke me up during the night throwing up and this morning when I woke her up for school she still had an upset stomach and a headache. She got up long enough to take a shower, wrap a towel around her wet hair, and head back to bed. She has been sleeping ever since...

My little girl has been sick all night and most of today. She finally stopped throwing up a couple hours ago... The poor little thing. I wasnt feeling well myself yesterday. I had a headache and a sore throat. I still have a sore throat today but at least the headache is better...<br /><br />In other news my son goes back to the Marines tonight. I take him to the airport at 6pm. He will be stationed at Camp Pendleton, Ca for awhile. Of course I have no idea how long he may stay there. I keep waiting to hear that he is being shipped to Iraq... Hopefully the whole Iraq thing will be over soon and that wont happen.<br /><br />Anyway, on to our QP's of the day.

My granddaughter is over having a sleep over with Miranda. Since my granddaughter is on spring break from school I imagine she will be here a few more days. Her front top tooth was loose this morning and it didn't take her long to get it pulled out. The tooth is sitting on my desk in a baggie waiting for her to go home so the tooth fairy will come visit. Her and Miranda have spent the morning playing games and having a grand old time. I am actually not feeling very well. I have a bit of a sore throat and a slight headache. I hope it doesn't turn into anything. I hate being sick. I am actually thinking I may make a cup of hot tea and go in and lay down for awhile and see if that helps any...<br /><br />Today's QP's are made from the <a href="http://www.scrappinggarden.com/shop/product.php?productid=17865&cat=0&page=1">A Country Christmas kit</a> by Pamela Yates.

So we spent a lazy Saturday together. We had a late breakfast, then we went and did some grocery shopping. A trip to town isnt complete unless we stop by Best Buy and do some browsing. I just got supper in the oven and now I have some time to get this post made. I hope everyone is enjoying their weekend,,, The temperatures finally warmed up here today and it hit a balmy 50* The weatherman is predicting high 50's tomorrow and 65* on Monday! I cant wait for warmer temps to get here :)<br /><br />The QP's I am offering today were made from the <a href="http://www.scrappinggarden.com/shop/product.php?productid=16339&cat=0&page=1">Celtic Royals kit</a> by Diann Snow.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg81swObOkObdGFOwvO5F6d56es0GXJluYPRbxBZJhNFKw_s22fr1ZQr1OHx8Yg_IV6u5V5_a81zqDAtSY6QxnWafaGEQMY_tK-qei3ra4mU4mlxdzuyeygI2v5uTUVL5MhV5ER87Ko9nLQ/s1600-h/dsnow_cr_prev.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg81swObOkObdGFOwvO5F6d56es0GXJluYPRbxBZJhNFKw_s22fr1ZQr1OHx8Yg_IV6u5V5_a81zqDAtSY6QxnWafaGEQMY_tK-qei3ra4mU4mlxdzuyeygI2v5uTUVL5MhV5ER87Ko9nLQ/s320/dsnow_cr_prev.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5313202663014120434" border="0" /></a>Today's QP's were made by our CT Keiki, Donna Hinsey.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.scrappinggarden.com/Dyanna/CTQPs/dsnow_celtcroyalskit_Qp1_djh.zip">Celtic Royals QP 1</a><br /><a href="http://www.scrappinggarden.com/Dyanna/CTQPs/dsnow_celtcroyalskit_Qp2_djh.zip">Celtic Royals QP 2</a><br /><br /><span style="font-style: italic;">links no longer available<br /></span>Dyannahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/11683232875865566400noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6097473111579490607.post-54732197023595327152009-03-13T13:02:00.003-05:002009-03-14T19:33:42.664-05:00I hope everyoneis stopping and picking up the Daily Download links from TSG.

We are 1 week away from closing TSG. If you have purchased anything from the store in the last week, or intend to purchase anything in the next week it is <span style="font-weight: bold;">VERY</span> important that you make sure you have all products downloaded before midnight on the 19th. After that the store will be shut down and all downloads will be lost. We wont be able to replace anything after the 19th.<br /><br />In other news...

When I turned it on to start charging it all the books I had already purchased immediately downloaded thru Amazon's Whispernet wireless service. It's pretty neat. Very easy to read and to navigate around in. With easy 1 click book purchases you couldnt ask for anything more... Well, maybe except for free books :) If you love to read and would love to have an entire library on one small book you should check this out...<br /><br />Here it is.... What you have all been waiting for... Today's QP..<br /><br />This is the Winter Solstice kit by Diann Snow.

Due to the decline in the economy there just isn't any way to keep a site as large as TSG running, Believe me, Cheryl and I have both tried. TSG has been home to many people and home to me for the last 3 yrs and we really hate to see it close. The good news is that Cheryl and I have decided to open a new store/site. It will be on a much smaller scale with just a few exclusive designers. Exclusive means you wont be finding their kits anywhere but our new site. <a href="http://www.kisscraps.com/">Keep It Simple Scraps</a> or KISS for short, is now open for business. We have a blog <a href="http://keepitsimplescraps.blogspot.com/">Keep It Simple Scraps Blogspot</a>, a <a href="http://www.kisscraps.com/gallery/">Gallery</a>, and the store will be set up as soon as possible after the store at TSG closes down. We will still have challenges, including the wonderful 2010 Calendar Craziness challenge hosted by Cheryl McCain and we will still have chats/crops in our chatroom. All challenges will be posted on our blog with all LO's posted in our new gallery. Also, over the next few days I will be sharing QP's from the TSG site.<br /><br />I hope you will all come on over to our new site and have a look around. Changes and updates are being made daily..<br />This lovely kit was created by Pamela Dempsey.<br /><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4b6LDrk0MuCkcxLU6Mgfl9A6Cu_667QKg-1PLUzTQKj3AAtSrQy-cIVr_0gLBQ6Qzr_krcbcXHe6CsNupPInVFiyFxBkCORDSyiyPNP9YMVreSLOvHN-4GlROQABF_Yh33w-qeFFnq-CS/s1600-h/pdd_waterscapes_prev.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 320px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg4b6LDrk0MuCkcxLU6Mgfl9A6Cu_667QKg-1PLUzTQKj3AAtSrQy-cIVr_0gLBQ6Qzr_krcbcXHe6CsNupPInVFiyFxBkCORDSyiyPNP9YMVreSLOvHN-4GlROQABF_Yh33w-qeFFnq-CS/s320/pdd_waterscapes_prev.jpg" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5313204870143565682" border="0" /></a><br />Today I have 2 Qp's for you, both done by our own wonderful CT, Dorann...
