It's Fall! (and a freebie, too!)

Back at the beginning of the week, I realized October was right around the corner! I can't believe how fast this year has gone! Well, I thought, why not make new cards for our pocket chart wall calendar - what a fun idea! I had already done new ones for September (now they look so boring, so I'll have to do new ones again for next year) and new ones for December. I love how my December ones came out - I used one of my digital scrapbooking kits. You'll have to come back at the end of November to see that one! lol

I chose to use Simply Autumn by LawTeeDa Designs. I did have to add in a pumpkin and some leaves from another kit however... but everything else is Simply Autumn...here's a preview of the kit:


I picked mine up at ScrapMatters, my favorite digital scrapping place!

This is a sampling of the cards...you don't want to print this preview as it is not print quality...please download the set of all 31 cards and print those instead...


I saved them to my calendar cards folder in my documents, then I double clicked the image. Up pops the Picture and Fax Viewer window! I then use the button for printing at the bottom and choose full page fax...there you go! I hope you like them - feel free to download them here and tell your friends! Please leave a comment here on my blog if you download...this way I know if someone appreciates them - and I'll share each month. Otherwise, I won't bother! lol

Fall *Ü* Blessings,

Shabby Shoppe Challenge

I like to go to The Shabby Shoppe and get my free desktop each month...Why? 'cause, well, they are SO swee-eeeet!

I didn't find the desktop available yet, but I did find a neat challenge to participate in... a template challenge! LOVE them, they've got to be the easiest challenges to do! lol

Here's the LO I ended up with...I'm really pleased with how it came out...what do you think?


I used their new freebie kit for this one, called Plentiful...I'd love to know if you do one, so come back and tell me!

Freebie Alert!

Hello friends I created a a fabulous freebie that I'm offering up on Chelle's blog! But before we get to that, I hope you all had a marvelous Labor Day weekend? The weather here in Maine was just awesome! We spent the bright sunshiny days at the lake...where did you spend the weekend?

Did you see Chelle's latest sports kit? Kick It! is perfect for all your fall soccer photos! Here's a preview, and you can grab it at Chelle's ScrapMatters Store:


She has so many color options as an add-on too! I chose orange because that is what my son was wearing the day I took this photo...


I created a LO and decided it would be fun to give it away as a QP... but since you may want different words on yours, I made two different ones to give away...you choose!

Here's your freebie:



You have to head on over to Chelle's blog to grab your freebie...go now and SCORE!

Have a terrific Tuesday!
