BOO's Back and hosting the SAS-y Color Challenge
Well well, we thought she was gone for good this time, but alas she swam upstream through all the PC problems and made her way back to the Digi-Scrapping World and we are certainly glad about that. She came back with a bang and I'll show you more about that later plus will also show it on the Boo's Blossoms Blog which I promise to UPDATE today.
There are some really outstanding layouts and Free kits there.
On the Homefront, hubby is almost over whatever kind of flu he had, but we are CERTAIN it wasn't the Swine Flu, had it before that Hoop-La started and he sure hasn't been to Mexico. We had a flood here in Alvin, on the 18th of April, I am not sure how many homes were flooded but there sure are many piles of wet carpet out for the trash pickup. Thankfully all of my family stayed HIG and DRY unless you needed to go to the store then you had to dodge high water all that Saturday. It certainly has been a strange Spring this year, first there was NO RAIN and then in a week or so we got close to 12 inches. Many areas of Houston got all theirs in one night, so it is now Mosquito time. At least up until the past couple of days it has been cool, but now I guess humidity and heat is with us until at least the end of September, BUT, I wouldn't trade the Upper Texas Gulf Coast for any other place in the world.
Ok off to start an update on the Blossom's Blog talk to y'all later.

Check out Touch of Summer, it is on SALE, plus U get 2 freebies from ME
I was going through my CT for Scrapbrat Designs folder and found I had missed one of her kits, so off I went to make some layouts with it. I had fun doing the Style Challenge at GDS, and I had found a great template by Joni Gray and she was nice enough to let me use it to make a Freebie QP with Scrapbrat Designs Kit "TOUCH OF SUMMER". You can find the kit at SAS , BTST , DigiDesignsresort and at Inspiration Lane . It is on SALE at all the stores.
I told you I had a couple of freebies for you and the first is a QP made using Joni Grays Template and Scrapbrat Designs kit.
Either click on the preview or HERE to downloadThe second gift are the papers I made for the April DSO Colour Challenge and you can either click on the preview or HERE for the download
Well that is it for me today. Have several new kits I have to work with, you know saying HAVE TO sounds bad, I love working with the designer's kit. The really fun part is getting to see it FIRST most times before it is even in the Stores. I know for a fact that 3 of the Girls I CT for, Lara's DigiWorld, Scrapbrat Designs and Booland Designs have something NEW up their sleeves for you.
So enjoy your gifts and I am off to unzip some files so I can see what all I have need to work with.

Plug for a new kit and a couple of freebies
You know I THINK it is about time I re-do my blog, but I am so lazy and would much rather make layouts instead. SO I guess I'll put it on my to-do list.
My Good Friend Trudie AKA Scrapbrat Designs has been really busy lately. She had joined some more stores. She is now in Studio Style Designs, Been There Scrapped That (waving at my friends Colie and Liz) and DigiDesignResort and she has this beautiful kit on sale at each of them. The kit is called 'TIME FOR TEA' and is very pretty with soft colors and pretty elements. I would think it would be perfect for Mother's Day layouts.
So this bring me to the goodies. I made a layout that I thought turned out very nice (used one of Andrea Gold's CU Templates) and thought you might enjoy having it to play with yourselves. Just click on the preview to download.

I am so SORRY about the zip file for ADSD
Yesterday I was so busy, I didn't even have time to check anything but this morning I found out my zip file for my part of the ADSD SPRING THINGS Blog Train was corrupt. I have redone it and it works this time. I am so sorry to all that downloaded it, it was weird that it didn't unzip for ANY of us, but it is fixed now. When I tried the orginal one I had made it wouldn't even unzip, before it went to 4shared, so it was a Lois GOOF not a problem with 4shared...:)
You can download it here
I checked it better this time. That is what I get for always rushing through things.
Thanks to those that let me know and I'll try to do better in the future.

Instead of a BAD joke/trick, the Folks at ADSD are giving you a SPRING THING Blog Train. Filled with beautiful Springy colored papers and elements. Just remember we come from all over the World, so if you start out really early, then some of the Gifts might not be posted yet. You can check back later and grab all of the 40+ Gifts. We enjoy making these Gifts for your scrapping pleasure, so if you do not mind, a little bit of LUV goes a long way in making our DAY!!!!
I only made papers, 22 of of them, all 12x12 and 300DPI. I love making papers and these colors were extra pretty, so I got a little carried away...LOL You can download them by SEEING NEXT POST

March Madness and a Freebie
Here it is March with all the great things that are going on, the Houston Livestock Show and Rodeo, different smaller events in other towns to attend, but what do I do? I sit home and play on the computer...LOL
GD Brianna was in a One Act Play UIL (Universal Interscholastic League) Contest and her group won First Place for a play named 'Wiley and the Hairy Man' by Susan Zedar. The leading man/boy was won by Michael from her group and the All-star cast was alos won by her group and that included Brianna. SO I would say that they had a very great day for a bunch of 8th graders from Fairview Junior High, one of 5 in AISD Alvin Texas.
Plans are going forward for my youngest son's wedding. Liz has picked her colors and I actually have already bought my dress for it. It isn't until October but I didn't want to wait until the last moment. I found one the right color at a fantastic price, so jumped right on it, but now I have to make up my mind to buy new shoes, something besides tennies, and I hate shoe shopping. Oh well this is a long awaited event so I guess I had better start looking since it takes me forever to find a pair that fit right, have the right heel height and are right for the dress.
Hubby's make-over is going great. He had his left eye fixed in late January and now he is getting all his skin cancers removed. Now if only that perfect job would appear all would be good with him.
Mallory is growing so fast, seems like he will be really keeping us hopping when Spring finally gets here. He so loves to explore the back yard, but that means one of us has to be with him every minute, due to his BAD HABIT of tasting of everything and I do mean everything.
Ok I know you all want to see what I made for KimB's Color Challenge. This time I made only papers but there are 15 of them all at 12x12 @300DPI and here it is;
Download HERE
I just checked the Color Challenge Gallery at DSO and WOW there are some really great free kits there, if you downloaded all of them you would have a very pretty Mega kit.
Well I am off to grab another cuppa coffee so I will bid you a fond HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND,
Lois
