Finally Fall Mini Kit

Here is my contribution to the color challenge at theStudio. Hosted by Monika Designs, it is one of my favoritest challenges. Wasn't sure I'd have time this month but I didn't want to mess up my streak. This makes 6 months in a row of participating in this challenge. It has been such fabulous practice and I love working with Monika's color palettes. I am so glad it is finally fall and starting to cool off a little here in the desert. So that was my inspiration for this mini page kit Finally Fall

Desert Sunrise Mega Kit ****Designed For Me*****

I am so very excited and honored that my dear sweet designer Sherah of SKrapper Digitals has designed a mega kit just for me! And it turned out better than I could ever have imagined. Sherah is such a fabulous designer and this kit definitely shows off her talent!! Check this out:

This mega kit was created especially for my CT member and friend, Des.

(DigiDes Designs) And I've got to say it was ALOT of fun to create! Being from the
the East Coast, I didn't personally have alot of experience with the West, so I relied alot
on my Des and Jo for inspiration and help to 'get it right' I think you'll agree that it's a great
kit to scrapbook your adventures to the Grand Canyon, Wild West, and all sorts of
heritage or masculine layouts! With 21 papers and 93 elements you'll be sure to find plenty in
this versatile kit to meet your scrapping needs!

And here's what Des has to say about this kit:
"Although I’ve lived in a lot of different places, the desert southwest will
always be home.I grew up here, got married here and have been back for about 4 years now.
I have to admit that I sometimes find it hard to scrap some of my photos with the
wonderful kits I have -most of those flowers just don’t grow here!!
So I was pretty excited to be able to share the beautiful colors and textures
of the southwest as inspiration for this awesome kit.
It is colorful, beautiful, and unique and I couldn’t be more thrilled!!! I can’t wait to see some
gorgeous heritage and vacation pages made with this kit. And of course the pages from fellow desert rats like me!

Desert Sunset Mega Available Here

And here are a couple layouts I just finished......I'm sure there will be more to come lol! I LOVE the kit!!!

I have sooooo many camping pics to scrap LOL! So I was really excited to see this awesome Camping Collab by Skrapper Digitals, LightningBug Creations and Shelly Marie Scraps. This fun collab is available at theStudio HERE

Here are a couple layouts I made with the Camping Collab.

Bedtime For Lil Campers

These are my two youngest (for now lol!) grandkids. Lucas is two years younger than Aliyana but he is taller and bigger and they are sooooooo cute together. She's so tiny and dark and he is big and blonde. He adores her and calls her his "Ana". She loves it!!! They love that they get to sleep in the RV with Gma & Gpa while the rest are out in tents. Lucky little ones heehee!

Smores And More

These pics are from a trip to one of our favorite camping places in the Anza Borrego Desert. This is hard core dry camping where you can't see anyone around for miles and miles. We try to make it out every spring to see the gorgeous wildflowers. This was Lucas's first time eating S'mores. He had to have his cousins and Mom show him the ropes. We all had a great time. I LOVE camping!!!
