LOTD - Lay Out of The Day! Yes, me!

I got an IM from Shannon late last night and I couldn't believe it!  She told me my LO I had just created was chosen for LOTD. Since Duchess Designs is the featured designer at Digital candy this month, they are letting Maria & her CT chose the LOTD's.  Shannon assured me it has nothing to do with the fact I am on her CT as well.  I believe her, they're not like that.  

It started out as a challenge for ChrissyW's blog and the template was a freebie on her blog.  I used a kit from Dreamscape Designs - Munchkin Man.  I really had fun creating this LO and I was satisfied how it turned out.  Here, i would like to share it with you.

I am just so excited. Oh and this all came about after I found out I won the flair challenge at Digital Candy that was hosted by hauntedonecat (Wendy). i just had too much fun with this challenge and was the first flair I ever made. I figured IRL I am a dork (but such a cute & funny one), that in the candy world it would equal a goober.

Well, i guess I should get back to work now.  Just couldn't wait to share :)

Newest Layouts!

Yes, getting my challenges at Digital Candy done up. Did you know that you earn points from posting & challenges that will earn you FREE gift certificates!!!! How cool is that?

Okay 1st LO are my boys at the airport when oldest got home from Europe. This was for the journaling challenge and I had to recreate the template by Jill & Jack scraps that I like -- it got flattened. The kit is Rockin Robin by Duchess Designs (hint-hint - my new presents :) )

2nd LO was Tony a few years back trying to be a wild child.  this was for the Sweet Elements challenge.  Glitter (except the flourish)  is by Trish H, flowers are from Vintage Flair by Dreamscape Designs and the rest is from Rockin Robin by Duchess Designs (don't you love here glittery swirlies?)

3rd LO is from the night we played with Jonathan's Cars dominoes and was for the Scraplift challenge (off of gonewiththewind - Angel Girl).  I do love how this LO turned out!  Paper , elements & alpha from AWP - The Great Outdoors & Hazy Days. Photo key chain from foxydesigns.

4th LO is from the Candy Jar challenge.  Kit is from Trish H.  

I have to admit, I honestly have a hard time keeping up with who made what & what pieces I use.

     

Here is the Vintage Flair by Dreamscape Designs, as well as the add-on for Vintage Flair.  I am tired of having tons of recipes printed out or jotted down on just anything, So I've decided to scrap them and organize them.  Might as well make the pretty too.  That way I can say "Of course I'm not scrapping AGAIN, I'm organizing my recipes so I can cook delicious meals for you and the boys."  Yea, right, he'll know I was full of it. 

I have a few digi kits that I want to show you.  They are some of the new releases at Digital Candy.  The 1st one is Sweet Boy by Trish H.  Trish was so sweet and RAKed me with it.  (A RAK is Random Act of Kindness).  Having 2 boys, this kit touched me when I saw it.

The 2nd was another RAK.  Summer's End by Chaos Lounge.  I just love the soft colors and greenery.  I think I have at least her last 3 kits.  They are just so packed with so much.  Great when you have a lot of pages you want to co-ordinate, but not have the same items on each.

Last, but NOT least... daydream by dreamscape designs.  I love the colors in it, mix of elements and such pretty papers.  This kit could be used for girls or boys, kids or adults...I love multi-purpose items!  

What is your personal preference?  Do you like it when designers keep rolling their great designs or do you like a little time between kits.  I don't know if I have made my mind up on that yet.  I'm too impatient to wait to see the next fab design, but at the same time I feel like I didn't have time to play with their last kit.  No worries, I'll just have to lock myself up with my computer and have a night of scrapping!  I have managed to do a recipe layout with the last kit from dreamscape designs, Vintage Flair.
