Part 2 of KimB's Color Challenge and AWARD Time!

OK, I have to say the guy dancing on the corner (a post a few days ago) must really be hitting home. As I am truly feeling thankful for all I have in my life, little and Big. I received an award this morning from a new designer over at DSO, Gaye aka GSCreation. She has only been blogging and just opened her store a short while ago, under the wings/horns of her VERY talented and well known sister KimB...yup. I feel so honored to know that they both even know who I am but it is made me feel that I do have some special people in My Digital World I would love to see awarded for their hard work and so well deserve this award.


I want to first say this, I have been blessed by many gals giving me awards over the last year and a half that I have been blogging and I ALWAYS feel very honored, shy and wondering why they picked me and then get very nerves about what I must do to post the award and then
having to pick how ever many other gals to send the award off to. As I feel everyone is talented in their own way, so who I am to single out just a few. I have been in the digital world for almost 5 years (NSD is my 5th anniversary) and have meet, seen or worked with so many, I think
to myself, I can't pick just (??)that many or do I really think has earned this award. I wouldn't want to hurt someone feels or leave anyone out that really does deserve it, so I have always choose not to post them, emailed the gal who past it on to me, thanking her and explaining just what I have here.....BUT lately I have been GETTING out there and trying to get to know some of you and stop being so shy and quiet. Just admiring from behind the scenes. So Gayle passed this award to me for the hard work to our blogs and I said, I can so this and I do have a few gals I feel truly have earned this award. I would like them to know that knowing them and working with them has met a lot to me.

So here we go....get you a cup of java and read on as I would like to
AWARD these fellow BLOGGER with much love and thanks.....Gaye aka GSCreations- I am so honored to get this award, mostly from who I got it from. Although she is a new but very talented designer, she has been by my blog many times to leave a sweet comment and works so hard under her SISTER'S WING. God sure gave out the talent in her family...she is KimB Sister, who is known by everyone in the digi blogger world. Gaye thank you so much...you have some big shoes to fill, but with Kim's love and guidance you are on your way to being as I like to put it, "Running with the big Dogs(Designers)". Thank you for your kindness and I will be here following and drinking in all the awesome things that will be up coming for you in the digi world.


Linda aka BonScrapatit Design- Oh girl where do I start but with, I don't know anyone more deserving of this award than YOU. The endless hours this woman puts into her designing is incredible and so inspirational for all designers who know her. The joy and kindness she has for others is way past the "Up and Beyond" she goes to help out ANYONE that simply asks and even for some who don't, he he. A true caring and devoted Blogger to all who stops by her way. Takes the time to make sure all the finest details are covered. A unique style of her own, which truly makes Linda who Linda is and why WE all Love her. With all this said and for all Linda has done for me over the last five years (yes, Girl Friend it has been that long already my how times
flies when we are having fun) I want to say that I know nobody who I love and honor more than MY BEST FRIEND! (NO tears, girl YOU so deserve this Award)!


Tracy aka Crazy T (Owner of One Single Seed)- This award comes to you for all the work hard and support and kindness you have gave me personally. For always asking me to just hang around even when I wanted to throw in the towel with all the real world things come crashing down.

From the days of the WORLD Scrapping TOUR you hosted to the change over of your new store YOU have been there for me and love you for it. I know this is a Hard work for Bloggers but you are
blogging now, but you so have a big heart and work very hard for your designers, so I award you today! HUGS, GF!


Monna aka Monna Lainson Design - This award goes to you as we have been working together for this last little bit, learning that we are so much a lot in our thinking about creating designs and kits. We are on a top ward climb together. The years back at 3S our paths crossed but I guess we
were both too shy to make that first step, but I am so glad to have found you through our dear friend Linda. I know that you are working very hard and enjoying our adventure together in blogland! SO I thank you so much for the honor to be working with you blogging and designing
at One Single Seed as well, watch out OSS we have some stuff to knock your socks off. So everyone check out her BLOG she has some AWESOME designs for you.


Sassy aka Designs by Sassy - Dearest Sarah, I remember first working with your designs as a CT at 3S and knew you would be going someplace one day and wow just look at the stuff you are working so hard at. I know that you are working hard through your blog to sell all you can to
have that BEAUTIFUL wedding and you will be a Gorgeous Bride. Thank you for all your help and input on (*wink*) all you help me with. And can't wait to see your wedding pictures. Give them little guys a big hug for me! You are so amazing what you can handle in one days time. You so deserve this award.


Kathy aka Kathy's Scraps - I know that our paths have somewhat gone in a different direction for now, but I so think you are more than well deriving of this Hard work award. WE have work closely together last year with a great group of gal at Scrapkit Challenge and made a great impact on some new designers that are now designing and selling, work together closely on the behind the scenes jobs of putting a great newsletters / ezine together. You have taught me so much and so admire your ability to keep things going and so organized. So for all your hard work for the digi world I would like to give this award to you!


OK...the next four gals I would like to see get this award and are SO WELL deserving as well.They are the four gals I had the pleasure of working with and so inspired me to get back at scrapping and designing are the gal at Scrap That Idea, which a brand new digi shop in the digital world.... Mel, Stacey, Sarah and Vicky ....All of their hard work on their blogs is really working out for them and has come together. It was alot of fun working with them as they are all very talented. Big HUGS girls and lots of luck.


OK here is the rules:
1 - Pass it on to 10 other deserving bloggers.
2 - Link back to the blogger who gave you the award.
3 - Link to the bloggers you passed it on to, and leave them a message on their blog.


A very special thanks to my Sisters of the Traveling Digi Scrappers if it wasn't for you I probably wouldn't be here today...all the love and support these gals have gave me. Carole and Karen are gals that opened their hearts to me in the very beginning at 3S and I even got to meet Karen in person...woo hoo, here is a TOOTER for you Karen. The sweet and loving Miss Carole has done a lot of supporting me by doing layouts, chatting in chat rooms and oh so dear to my heart. Thank you all the best five years of my life....you are all so dear to me.

Sorry link has been removed but coming soon to OSS Store

Hi everyone, I hope you have a wonderful weekend! I bet you are wondering why I posted a photo of some guy, dressed in a dress, dancing and waving to everyone that drives by. Well, isn’t it funny how something will hit you, which makes you feel very thankful for what we do have in this crazy self serving world we live in today? I drive pass this guy dancing and waving to all the by passers and think to myself as much as I hate my job and the company I work for, I could have his job and laugh to myself. I am not downgrading what he is doing, as there are not many people, much less a man, who would dress like the Statue of Liberty, dance like he is listening to head banger (alterative) rock music, look up at you with a smile and wave each and everyday during Tax season (He works for Liberty Tax), but it makes me feel that life could be a lot worst. I could be standing on that same corner, panhandling to feed myself.

If you listen to the news, which by the way is too depression to watch on a daily basis anymore, people are losing their jobs with companies they have worked for years. Big name companies that just last year was on top of the world with cash flow and doing well on the stock market. My point is that sometimes we need to look at the bigger picture to see that maybe our lives aren’t as bad as we have made them. Everyone has choices and we have to live with the choices we make, whether it be good choices or bad ones, we still have the choice how we live. I guess, sharing this with you, I wonder what has happened to us. As we always hear the entire negative side to everything in the world but not much good. What happened to the nice little things people use to do for each other, snail mail a thank you card, a note to say HI to a friend, hack you rarely get a real card at all for anything since email. And what happened to doing care deeds, like holding a door open for the little old lady walking into the store as you are going out instead of shaking you head because you think she is walking to slow? I know that doing little things really fills my heart with joy and I now smile each day as I past the guy dancing on the corner, as it reminds me how lucky I really am to have the life I have as imperfect it may be.

So I challenge you to try to do at least one good deed each day of your life and I promise that it will make you smile and feel good that you helped someone in need of so that something Positive can be talked about. It is the little thing that makes a BIG difference in the world. (Stepping down from the soap box)…LOL.

Tomorrow I will be posting a new freebie that I have put together for a blog friend of mine, I am sure that you know her if you follow blogs on a regular basis, Kim B. She has a color challenge over at DSO each month. I love the color palette and the little goodies she offers for posting in the challenge. She has an awesome turn out and that are lot of bloggers that take part in her challenge to collect as well. (I hope you don’t mind Kim for posting this little shout out for you! It is to show you how I appreciate your hard work and LOVE reading your post as it really shows the humorous outlook you have with life!) (Remember to do a layout with her FRIENDS mini from her blog for her anniversary).
