The Best of 3 Li'l Monsters Designs DSD Blog Hop
Just thought I would pop in to say that there will be a BLOG HOP for the Best of 3 Li'l Monsters Designs on Friday, November 4. Each of her CT members took a different kit, and since there is a cute new "li'l man" in my life - Chase Anthony Tobias -born on Oct 19, I picked Amy's kit called MISTER MOON! Here are my previews for the blog hop - I have two freebies, a QP and a cluster frame.

Papers: 20, including 6 solids (cardstock) and 14 patterned
Elements: 40 in *.png format
There is also a cute story at the STS store about Amy's husband's early (at 4 yrs old) aspirations to be a chef (he is one now!) Maybe this kit can provide you with a vehicle to memorialize some of your childhood stories too ... it was the perfect choice for my "blue cookie" pictures. Blake was spending the weekend with his Nana, my sister Sandy - he was only 14 months old and had very little experience with iced cookies. Aunt poki brought him some cookies with BLUE icing - Nana was smart enough to take his shirt off before he got a cookie, because she knew he would be wearing the blue icing before he was done, and he was!!!
Jen C Designs NOVEMBER TEMPLATE GRAB BAG
Jen C Designs has a new template grab bag available at Digi Scraps Drive In available Nov 1 - 17 at the super low price of only $3.99. She makes amazing templates that are SO easy to work with ... I can't ever pass up one of these grab bags! (and I'm lucky to be a new member of her Creative Team, so I never have to miss another one!!!)
I made a layout using Block Building (top left - one of 16 templates in this grab bag!) and her kit SHABBY SPRING!

3 Li'l Monsters has a great new kit SUNSHINE LEMONADE
Amy at 3 Li'l Monsters Designs released her newest kit SUNSHINE LEMONADE at both Digi Scraps Drive In and Stuff to Scrap on Monday. I've been busy working on layouts to promote the kit.
My first layout was created with a NON-THEME topic.
I really love these photos that I took at Zilker Gardens a few years ago ... the water lilies seemed to be the only thing fourishing in the heat of the Texas summer! This is the layout that I entered into the GO FOR THE PINKS (color challenge) at DSDI which Amy is hosting! You should go check out the challenges there.
I thought I really needed to do a THEMED layout as well, so I created this one for the Recipe Challenge at Stuff to Scrap which Amy is also hosting.
I didn't have any photos that would work here so I did an internet search for some stock photos and found these two great photos at inmagine.com and google.com. They "fit the bill" perfectly I think.
Amy has a FaceBook Fan exclusive Add-On for this kit on her FaceBook page ... I love the touches of cherry red here!
This morning I woke up thinking about this add-on, so the first thing I did was create a frame using one of the papers from the kit, and elements from this Add-On. It will be available shortly here on my blog as a freebie ... I have to go load them at 4shared. Both are *.png files with transparent opening to fit easily over your favorite summer celebration photos!
No shadows on this one - click on image to download
This one has embossed frame and drop shadows - click on image to download!
Hope you enjoy my Freebies!

While you are at my 4-shared account, you can also get a "second chance" on my QUICK PAGE that was offered earlier this month on 3 Li'l Monsters webpage - the day that I was introduced as a member of her Creative Team. Here is the http://www.4shared.com/photo/k4j1OYeG/ps_3LM_YGMW_qp.html
I originally made this frame for a layout of the Lilac Festival in Highland Park, Rochester NY for my vacation album. Each of the 9 blocks had a different variety (and color) of lilac in it. Then I reworked it with paper from Amy's kit YOU GIVE ME WINGS behind the frame, and a photo that Mike took of me the day before my cast was removed. The journaling on the tag reads:
"poki SURVIVED 8 weeks in a cast and created 62 layouts one handed!"
I challenged my friends over at DSDI to create one layout using only their NON-DOMINANT hand ... no takers yet! Not even a nibble ... Actually, I'm quite happy using my mouse with the left hand, and have not moved it back in the month since the cast has been gone!

I am pleased to announce ...
I am now a member of the Creative Team for Amy at 3 Li'l Monsters Designs. I have followed Amy's work in the Stuff to Scrap Designer Survivor contest last year (she won!) and now at both Stuff to Scrap and Digi Scraps Drive In. I think I own almost her entire collection and I have loved working with it.

I will begin posting my CT work for her here - hopefully, I can do it tonight! (sometimes I have issues ...)
MY DEAR WATSON - This was the first kit I used for a CT assignment at DSDI
My next project for Amy was with WHAT A WONDERFUL WORLD - I just love LIME GREEN and RED! I guess I was in a GREEN mood on the day I did this one ... the photos are from my wildflower portfolio 2010!
I used this kit again for my Rochester Vacation Album - now you will see some red! The photos are from the Dentzel Carousel at Ontario Beach Park in Rochester NY
I did a SPEED SCRAP in June with Amy over at Stuff to Scrap, and I used this great kit again:
STAND IN THE RAIN was the next kit that I worked with ... that's my great nephew Blake at the Silo Christmas Tree Farm Pumpkin Patch in 2009.
When DSDI was celebrating National Scrapbook Day in early May, Amy hosted a Quick Page exchange with STAND IN THE RAIN - the week after the Celebration, participants at DSDI voted in a poll and my QP won the prize ... a gift certificate to Persnickity Prints. I sent my Rochester vacation off to print last week and had the pages waiting for me when I returned home from Kansas!
Here's another layout I did with STAND IN THE RAIN for a challenge at DSDI in May
Amy's contribution to the Soda Shoppe Color Pop for May at DSDI was a kit called YOU GIVE ME WINGS: I love the blues and greens in this kit!
I have some others I may add in here later! (Can't find them right now!)
June brought FISH ARE FRIENDS to DSDI and STS - BLUES (my almost favorite color) and PEACH
Amy's latest kit at Stuff to Scrap is ALL DONE - it went live in the store last Friday night. I kept checking all day on Friday (at least 5 times) before I found it in the store ... and then I loaded my layout of Blake mowing the lawn (they started him early on chores at home!)
VINTAGE ROMANCE has just what you would expect in a romantic kit ... but I like to use kits in NON-TRADITIONAL/NON-THEME WAYS ... I have a couple of pages in my Rochester Vacation album using this kit!
I have a new layout ready to post for a kit that will be at Stuff to Scrap, but I can't post it here until Friday ... you will just have to come back to see it!
