Yes it is!. It is {inter}NATIONAL SCRAPBOOKING DAY!!! Woohoo!. Love it. Beings that I am not only a crafter but I am a Digi scrapper too. I have always been big on traditional scrapbooking and I still do it from time to time. Yep when I get the urges, I pull out all my stamps, scissors, pens, colorful papers and oodles of photos. **Hi, I'm Rachel, and I am a photo addict** I freely admit that.
I got into Digi scrapping about 6yrs ago. Now with that I found another addiction. I love the images that can be created doing it the Digital way *....akward...* They bring a whole new life to pictures that I never could imagine till I learned how to do it.
The designers that come up with all the kits are genius. I love them all. But there is one designer that I just absolutely LuRve!! Kristin Aagard.
Her kits are just gorgeous. When I have friends that ask me where to get good digi kits from, she is the first designer I send them to. I have tons of her kits. I think I sell my sewing just to support my habit. Haha.
Here are some of my pages I've made with her kits:

Another designer I've been using recently is Emeto Designs designer Emilia Germanova's kits are adorable. I just bought her kit Ponies and bows.

Ponies and Bows

It's just perfect for my little girl. Here's the page I created using this kit. Can't wait to make more cute pages.

Right now After Five Designs is having a {inter}National Scrapbooking Day Sale! 40% off the entire store. I've all ready bought 5 kits between both designers!!. There's sooo many more kits I still want to get. But I know I must pace myself ( I might overload my laptop if I don't watch myself).

So get on over to After Five Designs and get your kits! You'll be glad you did. *^_^*

I'm Back!!

Yes it has been a very loooongggggg time since I last posted here. I've been pretty neglectful of my Digi scrapping for awhile. There's just been so much going on in life that I could just never find the time to scrap. I am hoping now that I have made some changes in my life I will have more time for the things that I truly love. *^_^*

GREAT NEWS!!!!

Well I am very excited to announce that we (my hubby & I) are expecting our 2nd bundle of joy Yay!! lol Due January 25, 2012

It was one of those big unexpectedly expecting type of situations. But we are excited none the less. Friends and family all pretty much had the same reaction "it's about time!" haha. Love them.

So to celebrate the news I made a page from a wonderful kit by (of course) Kristin Aagard called Pea in a pod.

(as of today I'm now 19wks 2days)

One more week and we will be able to know what we are having. Hubby of course wants another boy (surprise surprise *wink*) I have a big feeling that it's a girl but I don't mind either way. And when we ask David he says "it doesn't matter as long as they can play games with me" lol. He's going to be a great big brother.

Hopefully you'll be seeing more great pages from me very soon, and I'll also be posting about new kits from my favorite Digi designers. Happy Scrapping *^_^*

Sorry I've been AWAL!

I just feel so bad that I have been nigleting this blog. I've been working on getting my crafts sold that I just haven't had time to scrap. But I did get to do a few so you know what, I'll share them now. :) This is my avatar/icon for my SewRae! shop on Etsy. I don't have any items posted yet but probably after the holidays. I also have a banner that cordinates with it on the Etsy shop and it's also posted on my craft blog SewRae! The elements are from my favorite desinger Kristin Aagard she sells her kits like this one called "Bird Song" at Shabby Pickle

This is of course of my son David just before he turned 1. He loves the camera, he has a facination with them. Now when you take a picture of him, he goes "lemme see! and has to see it.

This is me and David now. He's 5. He loves making paper plains and flying them anywhere he can.
