Lucky Day - My NEW KIT

I've finished!!! Yep, I have a new kit in the store, and sometime in the near future I'll have a freebie for you, but for now, just check out my new kit!
It's 20% off for this week! (images linked to the store!)And my CT (still can't believe I have one!! *grin*) have already been busy, and hey they are QUICK, they only got the kit yesterday!!! Thanks girls!
This first one is by Leigh, she took this photo last year at the July 4th Celebrations, great shot Leigh!

And this one is by Benita (she did another one too, but I'm saving that one to show you later), its her beautiful granddaughter playing. I love the out of bounds here! (Benita, also used my Nikolaus Alpha and some dice by dozi).


And Dinphy has been busy too. This is her darling daughter walking through a bed of clover! Isn't she cute!!
Thanks girls for the layouts, they are awesome, and you certainly made my day today!
bye 4 now

Thanks Leigh - Another Spooked Quickpage!

Update 21. October 2010 - Spooked has been rereleased check post 21.October 2010 for links!

Surprise!!

Leigh surprised me with this the other day, and I have been saving it, for when the kit Spooked is available at DigitalArts Cafe - so today is the day, that Leigh and I are giving this away

Download it here

And I loved it so much, that I dug through the dress up photos of my boys and added my own photo to the Quickpage!


This is Robert at Carnival this year, seeing this though, I think he may well be an elephant again at Halloween - if - we go Trick or Treating!

Do you like this quickpage? Well, you'll love the kit! AND....
it's available for free at DigitalArts Cafe

And there are plenty more Quickpages to go with the one from Leigh above.

Benita created this one for you


Dinphy made this one for you on her blog

And I made these two

All images linked the the appropriate posts!

Come back later (when my boys are in bed) for my daily update!

Boys are in bed now! We cut Robert's hair this afternoon, he DID NOT want it done, I think it tickles him too much! It looks quite good, we need a bit more practise, as this time we did not just shave it all off, but tried to keep it long on top! mmh, the fringe is a bit wonky, but it looks OK, and he likes it!

this afternoon the cat brought home a trophy - a Jay!!! He put it down under the kitchen table, I got the cat out of the room, then got the dustpan! Well, you can imagine the scream I let out, when the "dead" bird I was putting on it, flipped over and flew off! It really made me jump! But I recovered to get some pictures, before it found its way out of the window! (watch for a layout!) And here it is!

Florian took the boys out for a bike ride and race, they love that. Mummy just watches and gives her orders, but Daddy gets on his bike and joins them! Unfortunately Florian had to leave today to go back to work, which was a shame as I had hoped to go out with my friends tonight, oh well, better luck next time! OK, not much more about today - oh the new dryer works great!
NCIS and Dirty Dancing for me tonight!
Bye 4 now

Happy 3rd Anniversary to Us!

Yep, today is our anniversary again. In Germany you get 2 Anniversaries a year, one for the Civil Service and one for the Church Wedding. We really only "celebrate" our Church Wedding one, and that was today 3 years ago!
A beautiful day, but I won't bore you with my Memories!

Mum and Dad had a surprise in store for us this morning. Mum had got in touch with Leigh and she had made a card for us from them. Thanks so much Leigh, it was such a great surprise. I haven't chatted to her yet, but when I do, I will ask if its OK, if I post it here (I am pretty sure it will be though!)
And here is the layout I got in the morning!

My little Sweetheart add-on by Flutter Expressions (available on her blog)

I made a card for Florian, and this is it (I tried to find something to match my flowers and colour scheme), I tried out that new craze "laser cutting" on this photo, the reactions were mixed. Mum couldn't read it, cause she was trying to read the yellow (the words are in the grass!), and Florian who was looking on his blackberry had to zoom right in to see it! but it was fun to learn. Hummie has a tutorial video on her blog, if you fancy trying it too.

Now, about why I am late blogging - well I decided that I would blog downstairs so I could put my layout on straight away,....yes, well... I got downstairs and the computer was sooooo hot, that I decided, before it fried itself I would give it a break. So I turned it all off, put it in the downstairs toilet (the coolest place in the house), balanced it on the sink so that it got cool air from all sides and then left it there for over an hour! It worked, its all nice and cool now, and doesn't seem to be overheating again! At least I hope not!

it was another day in the garden today, too hot to do anything else, at least we have shade and can hide from the direct sunlight. The boys and I had fun. I let the chickens out today to try and get them to eat all the annoying flies. At first the boys ignored them, but then decided that it would be a good idea to chase the chickens, so both the boys and the chickens got a work out today! Probably be scrambled eggs from the chickens tomorrow.

Bye 4 now
