Black Friday "Retail Therapy" Blog Train

I'm glad you joined me on this Thanksgiving Day here in the US. For others it's just a normal workday but for me it's a day to enjoy our extended family and relax while eating way too much. It's also a day to plan my crazy shopping for Black Friday. I'm not one that *has* to be at a certain place at a certain time on Black Friday. I can usually find a few things I'd like to have and if they are still around when I get there, I'll pick them up. It's more a fun time with my bff and a break from the boys. In the shopping vein then, here is a quick page made from the great DSDI collab Retail Therapy. There is a coupon included in the download good towards the purchase of this kit so be sure to keep your eye out for that! I absolutely love this kit - the colors rock and the elements are so much fun!





The blog hop actually started at the DSDI blog but if you didn't start there, here is the list to get you back on track. We are all in different parts of the world so be patient if someone doesn't have their stuff posted yet. Thanks again for stopping by and Happy Thanksgiving to all of you!

Scrappers Give Thanks

There’s a fun campaign going on called Scrappers Give Thanks where scrappers are making cards that will be printed out and given to kids in hospitals. Fun huh? I went the silly joke route and here's what I came up with.

Okay, so I didn’t actually check that all the kits I used were S4H friendly. I’m just going with the assumption that the designers will be okay with me using their kits to make cards for kids in hospitals since I’m not making any money or anything. (please, please, please)

I used Scrappy Cocoa’s kit Under-Dogs for this first one.

I used Feeling Hungry by Wimpychompers for this one.

I used this cute kit by Mlle Heloise but she appears to be gone from digital scrapping so no luck for you if you like it!

I used Scrap to School a DSDI collab kit for this card. I’m an accountant so I especially like this one.

I used a freebie kit from Giggly Polka Dots called Ahoy Matey.

Well, that’s it. It was fun reading silly jokes though – I highly recommend it for a trip back down memory lane.

Altered Path–a new kit from Growing Pains Scrapped

Tracy has been off for a bit with a new baby and a cross-country move but she has finally found time to finish a kit – and what a kit it is! You can find Altered Path in her store and it is 30% off this week!

It is also a collab with The Latest Scoop, Too and her portion is free on her blog so make sure to get that part too!

And as a bonus – Tracy made a coordinating cardstock pack that you can pick for free on her blog.

Here are my layouts

Here is your freebie quick page. And there are links on Tracy’s blog for other quick pages so get those while you are there.

DSDI Daily Download

Okay, so I have been the suckiest blogger lately. Things are so busy - so many irons in different fires. But no matter, I have good news. It's time for the daily download over at Digi Scraps Drive-in and it's a great one. Marie of JK Creations is a new Pink Lady over there and she made a lovely kit called Playing in the Leaves. You can pick up the first part today - head to the Drive-by Freebies forum to see how. And if you are seeing this late and missed some, check out this thread to see how to get the missed parts. Hope you enjoy and I would love to see any layouts you make so make sure to post them in the galleries!
