Color Scheme of DSC BlogTrain-Seaside Holiday--Upcoming Blog Train

I have joined a new blog train for August--

Here is a sneak peak at the color scheme. 

I designed a mini kit for the blog train and I loved the colors so much that I have created a big kit which will be available August 1st.  Stay tuned for the freebie and my kit for the stores....

We Went Camping! - Freebie Camping Quick Page

Yesterday, I filled in for my husband during a Tiger Scout Camping Trip.  He finally had an interview after being laid off from work a while ago so I gladly stepped in!  Since we already paid for this trip a while back, we figured that we would give the kids at least a nice, local memorable summer experience since we cannot really go anywhere right now.  Luckily, we have done several events with both the boy scouts and the girl scouts once a week so that has kept us busy!

When we arrived at camp and the first thing we had to do was to select a tent.  We had brought our own, but I was not sure that I was going to be able to put it up, but I figured that I should set a good example so I decided to go for it and give it a shot.  With one simple photo and no written instructions, my son, daughter, and I managed to lay everything out and begin our set-up.  We must have looked a little pitiful because about five minutes later, we started received a lot of extra help from the Boy Scout leaders and other cub scouts.  The end result looked great, I think and it was a very proud moment for us! 

Also pictured were the lovely, outhouse and "wash station" which made me appreciate modern conveniences a lot more!  Before night fell, my husband relieved myself and my daughter because his interview was over so now we just have to wait and see what our future holds (keeping fingers crossed)...

Dollar Kit Deals--This weekend!

Hi all

I have been hearing from a lot of you that you are suffering from this heat wave as much as we have been!  Lucky for us that the trend seemed to break and we have been in the mid 80's during the day and the 70s at night which has been so refreashing after those 100+ temps and our time without electricity!

I wanted to let all of you know of a special deal which is going on at my store at RBL Designz.  Right now, I have 3 kits offered there for $1.00 a piece.  I decided on two tropical kits and one patriotic kit so that you could use them right away.  Here they are...

Here is the link to these specials at RBL Designz...(This special will only last until Sunday, July 22 at midnight)

Newly Released Kit - Sugar Stardust 2 and layouts

How is everyone surviving this summer?  It has been in the 90's this past week where we live and there have been a few 100 degree days so we have tried to stay inside.  It has been so hot that our kids baseball/softball games have been cancelled due to heat!  We even lost power last week for 4 hours so that was quite the experience--at least we were home because the garage door cannot be opened without electricity! We tried to make the best of things, though, and played board games by candelight downstairs where it is cool!  The kids loved the new experience of roughing it but I am thankful for modern day conveniences like the microwave, stove, and being able to flush a toilet!

Anyways, here is Sugar Stardust 2

This kit is at all my stores (and it is on sale too for the month of July, 2012) so rush on over for a sugar rush!

Here are a few beautiful layouts made by Deia using this kit

So clever to use so many papers in one layout by using the crop tool to create those geometric shapes!  So cool!  This creates such a great cluster affect!  And the scallped edges really create an elegant look to my paper.  Thanks Deia!!!

July 2012 Blog Train: Camp: Hang Out To Dry, Part 1 Mini Kit Freebie

Happy July everyone!  Is everyone enjoying their summer?  Where I live, July is a time when we start thinking of a much needed family vacation because the kids are out of school and there is more free time to enjoy new places, adventures, and friends and family!  Last year we went camping and we cheated a bit because we rented a cute little cabin.  The restrooms were about a 1/4 of a mile away (in the darkness of night) though so I consider that a rustic trip!

I know what you are probably waiting for--Here is a July gift just for you...It is my contribution to The July 2012 Blog Train--Camp.  This kit is called Hang Out to Dry.  I created it around the theme of outdoors, nature, and clothing hanging out on the line to dry in that fresh air.
