Crop this weekend at scrappinwithgrace.com

There is a crop this weekend at Scrappinwithgrace.com! The idea of the crop is that you will be world travelers collecting passport stamps as you make your away through the "islands"! Each island will feature games, challenges and of course lots of fun and laughter!

Please come join us this weekend!

I am resigning from Scrappinwithgrace.com

I am resigning from Scrappinwithgrace.com as the special events coordinator at the end of December. This has been a heart felt decision as I have been there for over 1 ½ years…so many things have changed since then and so has my focus.

I have had many new opportunities present themselves in the past 6 months…and in order for me to spend more time focusing on the things that I want to be doing…which is mainly designing…it’s time to say goodbye.

I am really looking forward to 2008 and all of the wonderful possibilities!

The Digital Template Shoppe Opens Today

I have been busy working on samples for the digital template shoppe! Today is the opening day...head on over to http://www.creativitybycrystal.typepad.com/ to check it out! I think that you will find that they are easy to work with and there is so much that can be done with them!

Here are a few examples I made with templates (1-9)

You get sick...and...

Your blog doesn't get the attention it needs ;)

I am finally getting better! Although I still can't smell or taste anything...but feeling much better!

Halloween night...I just couldn't fight the sickness any longer...and it won! I felt lucky however, because I was able to make it through being in charge of another school Halloween party before I ended up in bed for several days :)

I am doing much better now...and had an Ok birthday...my sweet hubby really tried...but I just wasnt' feeling good enough to enjoy it.

Today my folks are coming into town and Chad and I have plans to go do something fun to celebrate my birthday! So all is well :)

I wanted to share some pictures of the kids on Halloween...my little clown (Gavin) wasn't feeling all that well either and didn't want to hold still for pictures...I think some "re-takes" are in order ;)

3 Big Toots !!! and my last day being 31!

Today is the last time in my life that I will be 31...tomorrow is my 32nd birthday! I am excited...and sad all at the same time! Sad because I am sick and I won't enjoy my cake....not because of the new age...after all it is just a number! So goodbye 31 and hello to 32...can't wait to see what this year will bring to my life!

I also have 3 new toots that I have been dying to share...1 that I have known about for some time and the other 2 I just found out about in the past day or so...and with Halloween (crazy Room Mom role...) this is my first chance to share.

Toot 1: I have been chosen for the scrappin sports and more design team!!! This is so exciting! I am honored and just thrilled about the whole thing! I can't wait to get started! For those of you that might not be familiar with SS&M they are a scrapbooking manufacturer and here is their website....http://scrappinsports.com/
*I think you all might recognize some of the other designers here too...I am thrilled to work with such a talented group of scrappers!

Toot 2: I just found out yesterday that I will have the opportunity to design for SeaScraps (Sandra) Her amazing digital kits are for sale at scrappinfreestyle! I am just thrilled for this new opportunity and can't wait to get started!

Toot 3: This one I have been keeping for some time now...and the site has a new launch date which is Nov. 15th! I will be designing using digital templates for Crystal at the digital template shoppe! (http://www.digitaltemplateshop.com/). I have been busy working up samples for the launch along with the other super talented ladies on the team! I can't wait for launch date!

There is also a new contest that started over at Scrappinwithgrace.com today...head on over and join us at Treasure Island!
