Valentine-ish

A digi-page of hubby on our first date of 2009 – our little excursion to Lexington, MO. This kit is SOOOO lovely! It’s from Shabby Pickle and it’s by New Life Design, Life to Love kit. For this page, I layers, and layered, and layered. That’s the beauty of digital pages, it’s so much cheaper to go buck wild crazy on your pages.

The sketch is from SoSketchy. My time with them is almost over. I have one more sketch and that’s it. I’d love to re-apply but with baby coming up, I’ve decided to take it easy a bit. Many of my DT responsibilities will end this summer, so it’ll work out just great with my maternity leave. I know I’ll be home and all that but most likely, if it’s anything like when I had M, I’d just want to sleep with the kid’s asleep {::SMILES}. I’ll still create stuff and maybe apply for one or two guest posts and hope to get accepted but nothing long term until we all get a feel of the new babe.

There’s a funny story related to this kit… Before Christmas I received an email from Shabby Pickle and the content, a gift certificate. WOAH I thought, SPD’s generous. I love that store but in reality I’ve been watching my spending there. I only buy when it’s on sale and I really pick and choose. Come to find out the GC was from my blog sis, Lori. There was a secret sister swap and she was my big sister. There was no note in the email — well the email that came it was messed up to begin with. A few days later she emailed me asking if I received a GC from SPD and I replied back saying something like, “Yeah, weird cause I haven’t spent that much to deserve such a GC. Did you get one too?” Of course she said no and she explained that it was her who sent it. Ahhh, dumb me!!! So thanks Lori, here’s the first page that I created with one of my downloads using your GC!!!
