Mothers, daughters, sisters, friends... The women in our lives mean to much to us. Show them your love with this purchase of Think Pink. Proceeds go towards the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer to help treat, prevent and ultimately cure this disease.

The world is full of amazing people and the digital scrapbook community is no exception! Several designers and store owners have volunteered to help design a Breast Cancer Awareness themed scrap kit to help raise funds for this cause. As many of you know, I will be walking in the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer on April 4-5 but I cannot do it without your help. 100% of the sales from this kit will managed and disbursed by the Avon Foundation Breast Cancer Crusade to help provide access to care for those that most need it, fund educational programs, and accelerate research into new treatments and potential cures. I’ll be just one of thousands of people that will walk up to a marathon and a half over a weekend, raising awareness of the cause and educating even more people.

There are two ways you can choose to receive this kit. You can purchase the kit right here by adding it to your cart and checking out, or you can donate directly to the charity by clicking this link. Send me your receipt for your donation of at least $10 to casey@prettyscrappy.com and I will email you the download links.

On April 3rd I will be posting in the forum a screenshot of my receipt for the total donation amount for sales from this kit to the Avon Walk for breast cancer.

My Daughter Loves Cats

My dd, who is 5, is an animal fanatic.  Anytime we go to a store, she has to buy a new stuffed animal.  I bet she has over 200 right now…UGH!!!!!!  I hate it but she is in love with them and I can’t seem to tell her no :-)  Yes, my dh and I are softies.

She also owns a cat, a dog and 4 fish and she is begging for another fish, a bird and a hamster.  So far, we have been good about keeping her away from those thoughts. 

One day, she was at home playing with the cat and I took some really cute pictures of her.  She was having the best time with our cat, Tinkerbell (who is a boy but don’t tell him).  When I was ready to do a layout using the pictures, I found out that Paula Phillips had created the perfect kit for me to use.  I used her kit, Fancy Feline.  She hand drew a lot of the elements in this kit.  It is just beautiful. 

Here is the layout I created using this kit and of my daughter playing with Tinkerbell.  It is such a cute picture…I just couldn’t help it.

Then, I thought…I have the cutest pictures of my daughter at her dance performance and wondered if I could use this kit, designed for animals, with those pictures of my Dancing Queen.  So, here is what I came up with.

I was amazed at how versatile this kit is.  I had so much fun trying to use it with just regular photos. 

I would suggest you head over to Paula’s store @ Get Digi With It and pick up this wonderful kit, Fancy Feline…before the mouse runs away with it.  I know, it isn’t likely, but it could happen :-)  If you create a layout with this amazing kit, please post it to Paula’s gallery @ Get Digi With It so we can see what you can do with this kit also.

Paula Phillips has done it again

I cannot believe it, but Paula Phillips has created another awesome kit.  The new kit is called Whimsical Romance.  I was so excited after I downloaded this kit and started working with it.  It has some awesome papers and some really amazing elements in it.  I love this kit.  Here is a preview of the kit and a couple of layouts I created with the kit.  I also combined Paula’s Creamy Cocoa Alphabet with the BFF layout.  I think it really sets off this kit beautifully.  So, head on over to Get Digi With It and check out Paula’s store and this awesome kit and alpha set.  And while you are there, go ahead and pick up a couple more of Paula’s kits.  I promise you, you will love them all!!!!
