MHK's New CT

So I just realized I hadn't gotten around to getting this posted yet. I was waiting for a couple replies and then things got a bit crazy around home last week. I'm so excited to have these ladies joining my team. They have already started doing an awesome job!

Exciting Announcement

Have you been over to the ScrapMatters forum recently? A few designers over there have challenged themselves to scrap some pages. I decided to join them last weekend and challenged myself to scrap 15 pages by the end of the month. I got a 1/3 of the way there last weekend and hope to get some time to scrap some more this weekend. Already have Photoshop open and ready to go. :) You can follow our progress in the Scrap Chatter section.

How would you like to get one of my Icing pack for free today?! One of my CT members is hosting a speed scrap at Mouse Scrappers right now and look at what the participation prize is! I have donated this Icing pack for all those that complete a page! So if you are not busy right now head on over there and check it out.

In case you missed it last week I broke up my grab bag from iNSD and have all the individual pieces in my store that go along with this icing pack.

iNSD Grab Bag

Hope everyone is having a great interNational Scrapbook Day (weekend ;) ) so far!

We've had some excitement around our house the past couple weeks. One of the kids' rabbits finally had a live litter of baby bunnies! They have been trying all winter to breed the rabbits, but unfortunately every attempt prior to this has ended up in heartbreak for them. This time we ended up with 5 cute little bunnies that so far seem to be doing very well. They are hoping that a couple of them will be nice enough to show at fair this summer along with a couple of the older rabbits. This was their last shot at getting some juniors to show before the deadline for their animal identification to be turned in to the county. Kailee has already staked her claim on the smallest one of the group. She has named it "Tootsie Roll". lol. They are currently residing in my house because the temps have still not been the warmest around here, so we decided to make it easier on them and moved them inside. The kids are loving it! Every morning one of the first things they do when they get downstairs is check on them. (Ok I admit it...so do I. ;) ) They are getting to be so cute!

It's hard to believe that my kids only have about a week and a half left of school. The weather here has been so crazy! The calendar may say May, but we just had about 3-4" of snow on Wednesday and today when we took the daycare kids on a walk we had to have them all bundled up because it was so cold outside. Last weekend we were having temps in the 70's to 80's. I'm ready for winter to finally just go away for a few months so we can finally enjoy some nice weather.

Who's ready for a great sale?!

Not only is my entire shop (excluding bundles and collabs) on sale this weekend, I also have a fun grab bag for you this year inspired by one of my favorite places to visit. It also works great with all the girly girl stuff that my youngest likes to do. You can grab it at my ScrapMatters store through Sunday for only $4.00!

Mixed Matters Grab Bag

I am so glad I'm not having to deal with having to take college classes anymore on a regular basis. I just finished up taking two grad classes last weekend, so I can renew my teaching license that expires in June. I forgot how not fun they are and how much work it takes to get them completed. Probably doesn't help that right now our schedule at home busy with volleyball and Tae Kwon Do tournaments for the older two about every weekend and practices during the week. The classes were due on Monday and I sent the last one off on Saturday just before the post office in town closed. Talk about being stressed out. But that is now behind me and I have another five years before I have to renew it again...this time I'm not waiting until the last minute to get all my hours done. (I'm pretty sure I said the same thing five years ago, but apparently didn't listen to myself.) So that is what I have basically been up to the last six week while my blog has sat here feeling lonely and neglected once again. But I'm back now and hope to be able to post a little more often.

April's featured kit is Twitterpated. You can pick it up through the end of April for 25% off!

Family Ties

Things are pretty busy around here right now, so I'm going to keep it pretty short this week. :)

Family is such a large part of my life. Paul and I both have very large extended families and we get together quite a bit. When we are together we create a lot of great memories and have a lot of fun. Family Ties was created to help me scrap some of these great memories that we have made over the years. I hope it helps you preserve some of your great family memories, too.
