While We Were Away...

2010-05-21T02:26:00.000-07:00

The Scrappity-Doo-Dah designers and team members were cooking up something special for you!

The whole team at SDD appreciates all our customers, and our whole team want to thank you for your continued patience - both in the time that we were down and our migration over to a new, more (ahem) reliable host. We hope that this blog hop will make up for it!

More than 15 of the designers and some of the CT, Love Birds, and Moderators of SDD have come together to bring you this huge kit - While We Were Away. We know you missed us while we were away and we missed you too!

If you take all of the stops of the blog hop you will end up with a huge, beautiful kit that you will be able to scrap almost anything with. You'll also receive a ton of quickpages, courtesy of our Creative Team, Love Birds, and Moderators!

First I want to take a moment to tell you that a ton of designers have sales and specials going on this weekend to make up for the downtime. Be sure to check all of them out this weekend!

Please understand - SDD will be going through a host move throughout the weekend and possibly into the week still. If the store does happen to be down, be patient and try again later. We may experience some downtime during the move, but rest assured if there is, we will try to fix it ASAP!

And now on to the blog hop!
Here's what you'll be receiving from me today!

And don't forget to stop at the next blog to grab your next piece. You should have come from the fab Lisa and your next stop will be at Corinne. If you get lost, you can find all the blogs right here:

Organization, Inspiration, and a Freebie Template

2009-05-15T12:56:00.000-07:00

I am finally getting caught up... the past few weeks have been filled with illness, doctors and medicine. Yuck! Unfortunately I am one of those people that in order to get started, I have to get organized. This time, it worked out for me!

I was responsible for a thread on Inspiration over at ESS and while sorting through my magazines so I could clear my desk, I saw this ad:

It reminded me of some fabulous photos I took at the Japanese Garden at Zilker Botanical Garden and I was excited to start scrapping! I am lucky enough to be CTing for Charlie's Digiscraps this month and the Colors of a Geisha kit was perfect for the layout!

I hope you enjoyed this layout! I turned it into a two page template for you :) Now this is my first template, so please let me know if there is anything I missed!
