Good Morning scrappers!

As I sit here on this beautiful morning enjoying my cup of caramel coffee with a touch of dark chocolate mocha I have to honestly say I am not fully awake.  I can’t seem to grasp that March is already half way through being done.  Where have the days gone?  It has been so nice having the days a little longer and all our song birds have been welcoming us every morning with beautiful songs.  I really think it is my favorite time of day.   Well enough about all that I only have a few layouts to share with you today, but no worries because they are gorgeous as always.

The first one up is a beautiful Easter layout using Pretty in Greens new kit.  I love the soft colors and the sweet little elements.  That bunny and chick are just too cute!

I have another two page layout that is also using Pretty in Green’s new kit and also Connie Prince’s March Templatopipa. I LOVE the dark purple against the softer colors and having the double page is just wonderful for a photo book . I love all the photos and it really is a great way to show them all off.  The soft colors and really look great with them.

Well, that’s what I have for you for today.  Make sure you check the store tomorrow for all the wonderful goodies that are coming out tomorrow.  I hope everyone has a great day and a super weekend.  I hope you all have beautiful weather and don’t forget to take some pictures so you can share your pages and preserve your memories!!!

Challenge Spotlight – Mini Kit Challenge

Good morning, scrappy ladies! Can you believe it’s already mid-March? Time really is flying by! It was just Christmas and now it’s Spring Break–crazy how time flies! This week I am spotlighting the mini kit challenge hosted by Rachel of Pretty in Green. The mini she’s created for us is perfect for slowing down time a bit and scrapping a life in the week. It’s called This Week and I am kind of loving the color palette; take a look:

I am really liking candy-colored, stripy kits lately and this mini is just right up my alley!  You know with an adorable mini like this, the layouts have been flying in. Here are a few of my favorites for inspiration…

I could seriously post every single layout that’s been submitted because everyone is working this mini! 🙂 I’m going to keep this short and sweet and remind you to post in the March Challenge Points Tracking Thread and start tallying your completed challenges so you can snag a sweet reward once the month is done! Even if you just snag this mini and create a layout with it, you are eligible for a reward–sweet deal! 😀

If you have any questions about how this or any of our monthly challenges work, swing by the Cookie Jar and ask away! That’s about all I have for you this morning; hope y’all have a great day and a wonderful week! 🙂

Fresh Baked: March 08, 2013

We’re already a week into March. I cannot believe it. Soon, we’ll be doing the pinching if you’re not wearing the green. That’s next Sunday, in case you’re curious. Me, I love this holiday.

Today, I might not be saying “Lucky Me” because my kids are off today, but I’m saying it about y’all! The designers worked hard getting things out for you this week, and I also picked out a few of some gorgeous layouts created by some members of the forum!
