Where is this month going.....

It sure is flying by! We just had a weekend crop at Paper Popsicles forum. Lot's of fun, games and RAKS and some very talented scrappers did wonderful work! I am so happy I am a part of this wonderful group of ladies! Also check out the weekly challenge. This week a layout titled "I promise to..."
Check out a sneek peek at Septembers kits . Looks like some interesting tools included! One of my favorite kits is Julys kit "Pinky Swear" with Piggy Tales paper and tags (from their line called "Gretel") and a neat stamp by 7 Gypsies. Here's a layout I did with some of it!

My other favorite kit (probably my most favorite) is June's "Blue Skies" also with Piggy Tales paper and chipboard letters, but sorry this one is sold out. This is one of four layouts I've done with this kit and I have another in the works!
I love the colors in this paper it is from their collection called "The Frog Prince". Great boy papers!
