Blog Header.

Hello everyone. Just popping in today to share who created my new blog header (and let me tell you... I was in need of a customized blog header. The plain one was so boring.).

Heather Prins (a very talented lady, by the way) offered to create my header. She has started in the digi world... and her talent is so inspiring! I mean... take a look at my header and her header and you can really see it! Or even look at some of her pages!

She also made me an alternate header. I will be using that one later on (once I change my background again). That one is gorgeous as well! 

Thanks so much, Heather! Your talent is unbelievable and I love the new header that you made me! It's perfect!

Blog Design.

Sorry for the blog being askew. I'm working on getting a new header in and the size is fighting me. Should be fixed in a couple of hours. Thanks for understanding! Have a lovely night!

8 is enough {although it's a stretch}

About a week or two ago, the 8 is Enough challenge wrapped up over at the Studio Calico blog. I decided to play along. Below are my 8 is Enough pages. :)

Thanks so much for stopping by, today! I have some more layouts to share... so I hope I'll be back to share those soon!

Have a lovely evening! xoxo - Kasey

studio calico [3] card challenge.

Emily, over at Studio Calico has set up a little card challenge on the blog! She even has a ton of her own examples at her blog! All you have to do is make three cards, link them up on this thread by tomorrow, August 7, at 10 [P.M.] MST... and you're automatically entered to win a $5 Studio Calico gift card. Easy peasy, right?

Well, I decided to play along. I wanted cards that were simple to make because I didn't want to pour over them for hours deciding what else to add. I also wanted to use some of my Cosmo Cricket Garden Variety chipboard. And, I wanted to be able to send these cards to whoever I wanted. You can see my versions below [sorry for the bad photos... the light wasn't cooperating!].

I haven't blogged in over three weeks and I feel bad about it. I was going to do a post the other day, but got lazy. teehee. Well, I'm hoping to be back tomorrow with some other crafty stuff!

Thanks for stopping by! Have a lovely Friday! xoxo - Kasey
