Thanks Vernette!!!!

My special prize from Vernette arrived today. I won it for matching all the cowboys and cowgirls to their horses during the online crop at Love Is In The Details. Thanks Vernette -- I love my prize :)

I Won!!!!!

Woo hoo!!!!! I'm on a roll!!!! 

First, on Sunday I found out that I won a prize from the online crop at LIITD :) I had so much fun doing the challenges that the prize is icing on the cake. I found another great place to hang out and visit via their forum. I'm so excited about my prize. Isn't that paper gorgeous??? A huge thank you to Lori and everyone at Love Is In The Details!!!!

Next I learned that I won a special prize for guessing the most correct answers in one of the contests that was part of the online crop. I matched up cowboys/cowgirls and their horses. I have to say a huge thank you to my Daddy (miss him so much) up in heaven because I wouldn't have figured them out if he hadn't been a huge Western fan. I don't know what my prize is, but I know it will be awesome. Big thank you to Vernette for posting the contest and offering the special prize!!!!!!!

Then today I learned that my fall layout Beauti-Fall won for best layout in the Fall contest sponsored by StampingScrapping.com on the Yahoo group. I'm so honoured because I was up against many wonderful creations. And I'm so excited!!! The prize is a package of the new chocolate Coredinations!!!!! I can't wait!!!! I love Coredinations paper!!!!! I've been drooling over the chocolate paper ever since I set eyes on it while browsing the online pictures of Summer CHA releases. Thank you Cindy from StampingScrapping.com!!!!!!!!

To top it all off, my doctor came through for me on Wednesday and booked the appointments that I need. So that brings me one step closer to solving my health mystery. Thanks to everyone for the prayers, positive thoughts and support :)

More from the Love Is In The Details Online Crop

Here are two more layouts completed for the challenges at Love Is In The Details. 

"Queen of the Castle" was completed for the Pick 3 challenge. Lori from LIITD sent me the little pink doll, the bling and a blue flowered thong -- yup a thong -- and I had to use them on a layout. From the thong I created the "blanket" the doll is on, the flower in the corner, and I used the elastic to frame my photo. I then used the bling to decorate those pieces.

"Eve of Traditions" was for the Traditionally Yours challenge -- I had to scrapbook about a tradition in our family. My layout is about one of the stories we read to our children on Christmas Eve called "The Santa Key". We read the story then together we hang the key on the door so that Santa doesn't have to go down our chimney.

Hope you enjoyed these layouts :)

Love Is In The Details

I'm working hard to complete the challenges posted at Love Is In The Details for their online crop. Time doesn't seem to be on my side on this one, but the important thing is that I'm having fun. If you've never visited Love Is In The Details you should pop by their forum -- there's a great group of people waiting to welcome you!!!! Or you can check out the blog.

Now to the layouts. "Pretty In Pink" is for the Scrap Pink challenge -- Lori at LIITD is making a donation to the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation for each pink layout posted --- yeah Lori!!!!!!! What a great reason to do a layout!!! "You Hold My Heart" is my layout for the Hearts challenge -- I had to use at least three different sized hearts. The photo on this one was taken on Gary's birthday -- I love my wonderful family!!!!!! "Laugh" was for the pattern paper only challenge -- I couldn't use anything except paper. Thank goodness Fancy Pants has pattern papers that are cards and strips with words -- made my life easier LOL!!!!

I'm off to work on more challenges -- I'm doing a tradition one right now that has me doing Christmas --- YIKES!!!!!
