Beware of the Ides of March! Or is that the Prize of March?

Monday, the Ides of March, is my father's 60th birthday. Happy birthday to the man who has made me laugh and cry for 35 years. You gave me my name, my humor and my thin hair. I love you!

When I think of my dad and my youth, one profound memory always jumps to the top of my head. I was 16 and had a crush on our neighbor. Late one night, well late in teen hours it was probably 10:30PM, I was out front with some friends being loud and giggling. We were being silly girls flirting with the neighbor, my crush. Then, right there in my own yard; in front of my crush, my dad yelled at me. I was mortified. I couldn't tell you what he said, I'm sure a "you're waking the neighbors" was in there. I know if a car would have been driving by, I seriously think I would have jumped in front of it. Everyone quickly scattered (including my crush), and I went inside and told him he just committed social murder. Pleaded with my mom to make him understand what he just did. Argued that I was a good kid hanging out at home, not walking the streets or doing 'bad' things, then stormed off crying to my room. The next day my dad handed me a brown paper bag with a quick "I shouldn't have yelled". I looked in the bag and there was every candy bar I'd ever declared my favorite. Thinking back, I wonder if my dad was afraid he was losing his little girl. I also wonder if he knows hows much that gesture meant to me.

Ok, enough with the mushy stuff.. on to the giveaway! Or should I say giveawaysss... three kits to be precise! Three ways to win, one kit for each way!

She's done it again...

More lovely to look at layouts from Paula Gilarde. First up, a beautiful (and soon to be copied by me) banner for St. Patrick's Day.

And now a beautiful shot of rolling green hills..

Just click here and you can get your own kit and CASE these layouts... just like I'm about to do!

Oooh she's so good!

I am LOVING these layouts by Paula Gilarde.

First is this picture of the cutest smile... but I especially love how she used a photo strip on the layout and accented it with strips of paper.. using small touches of patterns leaves the focus on that cutey patooty!



Then she did this layout that is breathtaking. I love how she cut the die cut in an off center spot then used those spectacular panoramic shots to 'tie' them together.. Honestly, so talented.


Love the photo strip? Check out how she does them here. And stay tuned for more layouts from Paula and Sharyn Tormanen!

My gal pals

I took the sketch summary and the March Kit to make these layouts. It's always best to use double sided paper and on this particular sketch summary you need to for at least the top left patter, though the top right is easier with double sided as well.

My layouts are from a girls weekend I had with two of my close and dear friends. We headed up to a retreat then explored my friend Cindy's home town area. The Fairlawn layout is interesting to me it's a former mansion home that was converted into an orphanage for quite some time. Seeing where these children all lived was amazing. The rooms seem so small, then to see where they had come back to visit and left notes or signed memorabilia was really touching.

Here is a sketch summary for four Get It Scrapped Sketches.

March Kits are up!

We're going to do things a little differently this month. But before I get to that.. let me introduce you to a beautiful green & blue kit..

this beautiful kit can be purchased here for only $28.50.

It's jam packed but if you love it half as much as I do, you'll want to pick up a these extras (what's not to love about such a boy friendly kit?)

Like The Novelist Add-on for $6.50

The Stamper Add-on which is three bottles of Zing! for only $12.50.

I whipped out a few pages with these kits.. actually a double page layout of my One Month at a Time endeavor at Get It Scrapped

and this fun one about my son breaking both his left wrist and right pinky finger at the same time.




And now for the "different". The design team will post their inspiring layouts later throughout the month. So keep checking in on the blog for more layouts. Paula Gilarde and Sharyn Tormanen are super talented ladies that I am sure will inspire you to Scrap This Kit!

Coming soon...

March kits will be posted at 3pm PST (6PM for my eastern standard girls ;) )

How about another sneak though....
