With Love Studios Server Move Shut Down

Hi everyone!

Hope you all have had a fabulous weekend!  I have been a tad under the weather but at least have answers to why I have been feeling so badly.  I went for my pre op appointment before my back surgery to only find out that I am severely anemic.  This has caused my back surgery to be cancelled until I can get a grip on my anemia.  We are all praying that it is only anemia and not something more severe.  But it is really nice to know why I am exhausted all the time, why I have insomnia, why I have been having dizzy spells and heart racing episodes.  I will be going to a Hematogolist to see what can be done as quickly as they can so that I can get my back surgery.  After that visit I will be able to figure out whats going on with my health and hopefully get back to some sort of normalacy (if there is a such thing).

Ok now for the server move over at With Love Studios.... the shop will be shutting down tonight and not come back up until April 2nd (if all goes well).  The Designers have decided to put together a nice little FB Blog Hop for you during that time so that we can keep your excitement for our "New Grand Opening".

You will have to "Like" each other Designers participating to receive their parts to the hop.  All of the participants will be listed on the With Love Studios FB Page, so if you get lost or just cannot figure out where to go, please head over there and pick up what is missing.

I am offering Commerical Use Glitters to go with the minis, so I hope you can swing over and pick them up.

New Owners, Server Move and Shop Closure

Good day everyone!

I hope you all have had a great week so far.  I have some good and bad news coming out of With Love Studios.  We have gotten new owners..... who are fabulous (good news) but we have to move servers now which is the bad news.  The shop will be closed from March 25th and have a regrand opening on April 1st.  You will not be able to get to any part of the shop, to include the gallery and forum, during that time.  It has been suggested that if you have any layouts posted in the gallery, that you make sure you have a back up just in case they get lost in the move.  Also if you still plan on participating in the challenges, please make sure to turn them in by the 25th so that you can earn your credit.

Before the move, I suggest you run over and pick up this month XOXO Collaborations called Boys to Men.  It is a fabulous boys kit filled with the mud and dirt that you expect plus some nice little unexpected items.

This is what some of our wonderful CT members created using the XOXO Collaboration.

Now I have sad news..... due to all the things going on in my life, I am having to close down my shop at Daisies & Dimples.  Its actually great news for you, as all my designs there will be on sale for only $1 through March 31st.

Final Round of Designer Darling Contest

Good day everyone!
I know I have been out of the loop for a while.... things have just been so crazy around here.  We have had a lot of appointments throughout the last couple weeks for everyone in the family.  My DH had a cyst removed from his back on Friday and has been recovering pretty well... he doesn't know how to not over do it.  Because of all of this, I really didn't think I was going to be able to complete this last challenge for the contest.  However, I was given some time and luckily my mojo was working.
 
We were told we could use any color palette and any theme but it had to be a full kit to include papers, elements and an alpha.  I asked on my blog, the Stuff to Scrap forum as well as the forum at With Love Studios for some ideas on theme and/or color palette.  Well I chose a palette from Jen from With Love Studios.  This is the palette she supplied me with

From here, decided to go with a 365 project/snapshot theme that was easily used for boys as well as girls.  I got a lot of request for boy kits so I tried to make this as masculine as possible but allowing it be flexible for almost any layout.  My title is "365 Snapshots" it contains 10 papers, 22 different elements, 3 word bits and a full alpha (to include upper, lower and extras).  I hope that you enjoy it and would be willing to create a layout with it (if you choose to download it) and post it to the Stuff to Scrap Gallery.

DOWNLOAD

I also created a layout, which I haven't done in a long time, using the tempate from the Template Challenge at With Love Studios that was graciously created by Jen (who is the same Jen who gave me the palette)

I hope you enjoy the kit that I created.... I will be trying to get an freebie done to post here. but until then here is a FB exclusive that you can pick up on my FB Page.

I would truely appreciate if you leave me some love in the gallery or here as well as if you like my kit to vote for it over a Stuff To Scrap.


Have a blessed week!

The Train is Leaving the Station

Happy March 1st everyone!

Can you believe that its March already?  The days just seem to be whipping by and I don't feel like I can ever catch up.  Hopefully you all are having a great week and loving that March is here as well as a new Blog Train.

This month we decided to go with the them Spring Sun & Easter Fun that is full of those wonderful pastel spring colors. The Designers in this train have put together some really beautiful items for you to include the minis, alphas and templates.  Please remember that we work hard to bring you freebies so please don't share them but rather direct them to our blogs and of course, leave a little love.... always appreciated.

Looking for Some Help

Good morning everyone!

I hope you are having a great morning.... at least those of you not caught in the horrible weather going on around the US.  Those of you in the horrible weather, my prayers are going out to you and your families.  I am in a great mood this morning and hope to have it continue throughout the day!

I am asking for some help though.... I have made it to round 5 of the Stuff to Scrap Designer Darling contest and we now have to make a full kit.  I want to create a kit from colors or a theme that YOU are looking for.  I would love to have suggestions left in the comments section (along with a way to reach you) for colors or a theme.  You can leave a link to colors in the comments if you have something very specific that you are looking for as well as if you have a picture of a theme.  If I choose your idea, you will be given the kit FIRST for free (reason for a need to contact you) and the 2nd and 3rd choices will recieve a coupon to my shop.

I hope that you all can help me with this and participate in my last challenge.
Have a blessed day!

Finally Finished Round 4 and Add-On Freebie

Good day everyone....

I hope that everyone had a good weekend.... I had an awesome one with my DH who surprised me with an afternoon date while the kids where all out and about. Such a great day!

Ok with everything going on, I finally got Round 4 done.  The challenge this week was to create a kit using absolutely no CU products and using the cutest photo as inspiration (it was a darling photo of Deanna's newest addition in a hand knitted outfit and blanket).  This was even more of a challenge with time restraints due to the family but I did finish it along with a little add-on.  I chose to be inspired by the colors of the photos.  I started with making a boy birthday kit and then it evolved into a man's wish kit.  I really hope you like it, swing by Stuff to Scrap to pick it up and vote for me.
