Partytime!

Monday, August 20th, 2007

Yup that’s right! Yesterday was my birthday. When I was little, I was always hoping to get lots of presents on my birthday, and I couldn’t sleep the night before because I was so anxious to know what I would get! Now, I enjoy it much more to treat other people and to spend some quality time with my family on that special day. I took my entire family out to dinner in a fancy, small new restaurant in my hometown, in the middle of nowhere actually.

There was green everywhere, almost no cars, very silent, and yet the place was crowded.

Moments like these make me want to move out of the city, back to my homies and back to nature. The only nature we have here are the cityparks!

We had a great time!

But the party isn’t over yet! I’m celebrating all week long and I have treats for you too!

Because I turned 31, everything in my store is 31% off for the entire week. I also made you a birthdaybag full of goodies, which you can grab for only 2.95!

And let me introduce my new kit: Mutual Devotion. I am so thrilled with how this turned out! I worked very hard on it all week long, but I think it was worth the hard work.

Mutual Devotion Papers
Mutual Devotion Elements
Mutual Devotion Alpha

This entire kit is available for $4.83 this week only!! Take a look in my shop!

Here are some pages my team did with it:

I hope everybody had a great weekend! Mine wasn’t spectacular really. Jochen had alot of work on his computer, so we didn’t go anywhere. The weather was lousy again, so Roxanne and I stayed inside too. We played together and read some books we had borrowed at the library on friday, and yesterday afternoon she did a nap! She doesn’t do that anymore for a couple of weeks now, boy do I miss that! But yesterday she asked to go to bed, well she didn’t have to ask that twice, lol! I really enjoy those few hours without her, not that she’s misbehaving or anything, but me being alone with her for two months from morning till evening is sometimes exhausting. So I had some extra time to design, and it’s been very productive!

 

This weekend we have chosen our Store CT team at FPD! Twelve of our personal ct-girls have made it and now have access to the entire store! We will be launching our site gallery soon, and then you’ll all be able to see their pages. I’ve already seen a couple, they are beautiful! I’m proud to have some of my own girls in it as well: congrats to Dawn, Beth and Angie!

 

I managed to get my elements pack done for the Falling Petals kit, and I’m SO HAPPY with how it turned out! I think this is the best elements pack I’ve made so far. I especially love the flowers and the flower spray. Have a look!

Oh, and one of the girls, Stephanie, started a challenge for our team: to scraplift one of my lo’s! Most of the above pages are scraplifts of ME, isn’t that awesome?

I thought it would be cool if I put this out as a challenge for all of you. Heck, I will even throw in a gift card for the one that does best!

Here’s the deal:

Scraplift one of my lo’s that you can find in my gallery. Use at least 70 % of my stuff on it and post a link to your page here in the comments. Also mention which one of my layouts you lifted. You have time untill Monday, 20th of August. I will ask my team to choose the best page, and the winner will receive a $15 giftcard to my store!! I will also post all of your pages on my blog! Good luck!
