My Digital Quickie Pages and a new template!

Hello everyone! Boy have I missed creating. I was not sure if I could be creative enough for you all this week.

I am so pre-occupied with getting my computer information over to the new computer. Also my baby has Roseola (sp?), so he is grumpy and wants me to hold him constantly. And one more thing....

I am sure you all know that the Harry Potter book came out two weekends ago and I just started to get to read it with more intent just the last few days since I have to hold the baby. LOL! What an awesome book!!! No I will not say any spoilers don't worry but I am 3/4 of the way done. I hope to be done within the next day or so.


Now you are all probably wondering what all the quickpage previews are on the side of here aren't you? Well, I just wanted to show you my Quickies I made for the Digital Quickies challenge over at Digitals. I have been in charge of this challenge for a while now (well, since the challenge started). I love it and I get to have a lot of pages done for a nice little album. But guess what? This time it isn't going to be small it is going to be a BIG album. There are over a hundred pages in all in this challenge.
Amanda Thorderson (what a wonderful gal!) started this month for me and what a turnout we have had! I believe we have over 100 quickpages from these two kits.
The two kits are America the Beautiful by Amanda and Aunt Dorie's Doo-Dads by Glenda Ketchum
I know that it is quite late to let you know about this months but next month it is going to be just as fun. And you have until tonight to get these kits for $3 each and try to get in on the action so go for it if you can!
Next month we will be having two crops on the same day. It will be Tuesday, August 14th at 4:00pm EST, and 9:00pm EST. I hope you can meet us there. We will have attendance gifts and have lots of fun! So I hope you all can be there. I will post the kits on the 1st so you can see them. And to those who have participated keep an eye out for your outrageously large album coming!
Now, I know that most of you are here to pick up a new template! Of course! I have made one of my Quickies into a template for you. I saw this technique on a layout and added a little to it to make it to my liking. Enjoy!

Hello from the MIA digiscrapper!

Yes, I am back and around. Just an update.

We went on our vacation and have just gotten back this morning. We were gone for a week. We had lots of fun but I spent most of the time in the hotel due to the fact our children were getting sick one at a time. Luckily, it wasn't all 6 but 3 was enough. The baby got sick the last but I believe it is teething problems. The last 3 days were misery on both the baby and myself. But we survived and are back. Oh, and don't get me started on the flight problems getting back. Let's just say it was a challenge to be in the airport for almost 9 hours before we even left for a 5 hour flight. LOL!

Don't get me wrong-we had a great vacation. The kids loved it. They got to go on a helicopter tour of the island of Ohau, and went snorkeling a few times.

BEST NEWS YET!!! I got home and my new computer was here! So.... as soon as I can get it up and running I will get going on some more things for you and my CT's. Hope to get something done today! Oh, the withdrawal I have gone through has been torture!

Okay, I am ready for a new computer!

Yes, I am around! But I am in tears (literally). All my hard work I have saved to my external hard drive is in jeopardy and it is on the fritz. I think with a lot of more hard work I should be able to save the most important things from it but not everything. If I can get my photos and my pages off then I will be happy. I am so worried though. I will be working on doing this for the next week I suspect. I guess it is time for me to look into buying another new computer! Augh!

My husband says that I go through way too many computers. I am not sure why. This one is over 4 years old though. It has out lasted any computer I have ever had. Maybe because I use it so much I drive it to the ground! I am not sure the reason but I have got to do something!

Anyhow, thank you all for being patient. I will try to not be so frustrated and get some templates done this week too but I can't promise because I can't think when I am worried or depressed! I know all this drama over a computer! No it is over my precious photos! Oh, my!

Thanks all! And those that have requested some family heritage photos I will be contacting you soon as to how to get them. Thanks again!

A bit about me

I am a stay at home mother of 7 boys that keep me busy all day, but I love to create in many different ways when I have a few minutes to myself. Since my youngest is finally in the double digits, I am able to have a little more time to myself to create. I love crafting in any way, shape, or form and I would like to share that with you. I also enjoy cooking, baking, and gardening which I hope to share with you too.
