Who Knew?

Did you know that some of the scrapbook manufacturer's 

offer their paper and embellishments as digital downloads?

This was new to me.

American Craft offers bunches and bunches of digital kits for purchase on their site.

I purchased one paper pack and one embellishment pack,

both from Maggie Holmes/Crate Paper.

This collection is "Willow Lane" which was released last summer.

I used Photoshop to layer the images;

size them;

and print them onto printable fabric sheets,

which I used to create these fun sachet pillows.

These were gifted to the recipients of yesterday's birthday cards.

Be sure to come back later today,

I will be announcing the February giveaway winner!

Kindness

I have been the very happy recipient of some beautiful gifts lately.

This lovely heart charm is from sweet Terri.

Right now it graces my tiny feather tree,

an office fixture year-round.

Thank you Terri for such a sweet and thoughtful gift.

This next wonderful treasure is from dear Dorthe.

Thank you Dorthe for such a lovely gift.

Speaking of treasures,

my always thoughtful sil, Janet,

has spent the last few months helping her inlaws downsize in preparation of a move.

Janet combed through 80+ years of accumulated mementos

and saved all the things she knows I love best.

This is my favorite of the lot!

A and K in rhinestones, how perfect!

(I must remember to ask Janet who AK was)

A & K,

Mr. aJs and me,

Anthony and Kimberly

Thanks bunches Janet!

Valentine ATC update:

The swap packages were mailed on Friday,

so you can expect them soon.

I will photograph every one's beautiful contributions to this swap and share them later this week.

As a side note:

If you are looking for a great way to display ATCs,

(see my post here),

Michaels has these on clearance for $4.99!

enJOY A Beautiful Sunday,

enJOY A Beautiful Sunday!

This beautiful charm was a gift from the most charming, Natalea.  However did she know that JOY was the perfect choice for me?  I have to dig through my silk ribbon collection to find the perfect necklace, so I can wear it close to my heart.  Thank you my dear friend.

A couple notes about the 50 Day Birthday Bash Giveaway:

I know that many of you lovely ladies have commented on how I must be enJOYing my giveaway as much as you, and this is so very true.  I have had the best time selecting and creating these treasures for the giveaway basket, by the way, the lid is never going to close, just saying.

Please remember to leave a comment on my July 24 post, if you haven't already done so, it counts as one chance in the drawing.

Some of you have been leaving comments on older posts, I am sorry, but the rules are that the comment must be left before 11:59 PM pacific time on the day the post is made, it makes my bookkeeping manageable this way.

Here's the big one!

This Wednesday, August 18th, will mark the halfway point, yes it will be day 25 already!  Please be sure to check in on Wednesday for a little added treat.  Just enough of a tease to keep you interested.

enJOY A Beautiful Sunday

& Your Blessings,

Kimberly
