Some Bad News!

I just wanted to let everyone know why there isn't any new items added to my store this week or no freebie on this blog.

I promise I haven't run off and left. I attened the MAGC (gifted) conference this week and it seems that my body decided it needed to pick what seems to be the flu. I don't know any specifics....planning on heading out to the doctor this morning.

Everyone......just a word of caution.....stay away from this bug.....I feel absolutely lousy!!!

Bad Blogger........ME!

I know it has been months since I've posted anything here. I have been so busy with trying to finish the classes to become certified to teach gifted/talented students that I have let a lot of things slide since May or June. However, I now have the gifted certification on my teaching license and I am good to go in that area. With that being said, I also decided this summer to go on and finish the 12 hours that I needed to get my Master's degree done and over with....yes folks...that will mean a little more money on my paychecks once this is finished....so I am in the first 6 hours of the 12....I hope to finish this degree in May 2010.

With all of these graduate classes that I've been taking, I haven't had the time to pursue any designing endeavors at all. However, now that things have settled down some and I've gotten into the swing of classes and working (teaching my gifted kiddos), I feel that I might be able to do a little scrapping and even some designing along the way. So, be on the look out for some new stuff!!

Now with all my efforts being placed in my education recently, some of the store owners have taken me out of their stores, which I totally understand. So, my designs can be found exclusively at KJOI Studios. Stop by the store at KJOI....I will be posting a sale very soon and new designs as well.

Until Next Time!!!

Freebie & a Great Deal!

OK...I know it has been a long while since I posted...but I will try to do better in the future.

Take a look at this.....Come on by Digital Scrap Garden and join us over there....We have tons of fun. We have a huge number of challenges to get your creativity flowing. Oh and see the add below....Just one or should I say two more reasons to come on over.



Until Next Time!!

Typo or Twit

Now, before you get all upset with me.....I have been the latest subject of this person who goes around looking for spelling and grammatical errors in the cyber world.

I will be the first to admit, that I will sometimes make and error in spelling. However, I do generally catch those errors prior to sending anything out to anyone. But, this morning, I made up a sale graphic for my ad and quickly looked it over and caught one error, corrected it and moved on. I sent this ad out through 10 different yahoo advertising groups.

This afternoon, I notice that I had some comments to moderate and low and behold...there it was. So I jumped right over to the blog to see what was going on with me being the object of attention on someone's blog that I don't even know. You can check out the ad HERE. Now, since I don't know whether this person behind the blog is male or female, I will just say the blog owner. I left the blog owner a comment using my real identity. I will not hide from my mistakes. If I make them, I will own them. That is the way I was raised. BTW...I was born and raised in the south and we are taught to be kind and respect others. So, instead of going off on the blog owner, I thanked her for letting me know...however, I think it would have been much more appropriate to notify me personally. But, that is my opinion and I do believe in the right to free speech.

OK...dear friends...let me know what you think about this blog and the service the blog owner is providing. I can't wait to see how you feel.

Until next time!

I Know...I've Been a Bad Blogger

I just have so much on my plate right now and then I go and decide that I NEED to finish my graduate degree. I only have 12 hours left and I will be finished and it means a good chunk more money for me. Who couldn't use a little extra money coming in every month? So I've been trying to apply for scholarships and such.....higher education is just so dang expensive.....but I'm going to do it!

Ok...now back to scrapping! I am working on a new kit....but you can't see it yet. However, I will show you the color swatch. Now, I have to admit....I didn't come up with this color swatch, I lifted it from somewhere else....but I like it so I'm doing it! I hope you like it, too!



OK....so everyone knows that I run two challenges over at Digital Scrap Garden.....right? Well, why not come on over there and give my challenges a try and then try out some of the other 20+ challenges that we have going each month. You can earn seeds to spend in our store...just by doing the challenges! Isn't that awesome! I look forward to seeing you there!

I guess I should show you my most recent kit, too! Do you want to see? Well....anyway....it is called Timeless Treasures. The colors just exude heritage pages....but I also think it is a very versatile kit in that it would lend itself to male or female layouts. Check it out!



This kit is on sale through Friday at Digital Scrap Garden for 25% off regular price.

Come back tomorrow and I will have a freebie ready for you!

A New Month & a New Petal of the Day kit at DSG

Good Morning all!! I'm not so sure that it is a good morning since I woke up to snow covering the ground here. I know you're thinking what is so special about that. It is only March 1. Yeah....but I live in central Mississippi and we've been having temps anywhere from 60 - 78 degrees. Now this! Can you tell I DO NOT like snow....actually I don't like cold weather. OK....now that I've gotten that rant done...I'll move on the real reason for this blog post.

Digital Scrap Garden has a daily freebie over at the sight. This freebie is called The Petal of the Day and yours truly designed the kit for this month. It is all Springy in my anticipation of Spring being just around the corner. Come on by the site everyday and pick up your Petal of the Day piece. I would love to see any layouts that you do using any of my kits....OK...I know you want to see the preview of this kit that I'm giving away in pieces. Well, here it is:



There is yet another freebie posted on the Digital Scrap Garden site. It is a Secret Garden grab bag that I create for a challenge that I host. Come on by the garden and check out all the fabulous challenges. We really do have tons of fun over there. You will be glad you came.

One last thing.....my Spring is Coming SALE ends tonight at midnight. If you haven't come by my store and checked out the great deals....your time is running out!



Happy Scrapping!

Until Next Time!

Tired of Viruses and Trojans

Ok...just so you know, I'm about to launch a small tirade here...On Friday morning last week I was doing what I normally do before heading out to school. I was downloading some daily freebies from a scrapbooking site. These freebies were located on 4shared. While downloading, I noticed that my computer began to act really wonky. Now, I've gotten many viruses and trojans in the past few months and had to clean up the mess afterwards. So, I recognized the wonkiness that I was seeing and immediately stopped what I was doing and began to run antivirus programs. It immediately caught one virus and 3 trojans. I left this program running while off to work I went.

Well, wonder of all wonders, when I arrived home 6 hours later.....the antivirus programs were still running. Not sure what was going on here. Long story short.......After getting rid of an additional 10 trojans, there is either something still on my computer or something has corrupted Internet Explorer. However, I downloaded Firefox and realized that I can get on the internet with it. I'm wondering....why is this? I know I should be grateful that I can have a browser that doesn't send me to a website that I didn't ask for or pop up the page saying I'm infected and need to purchase this specific product. But, I would really like to know.....IS this BEAST still on my computer.......or is my Internet Explorer just corrupted? If you know the answer to this....please let me know!

Now since all this started and I was at 4shared....and I've heard others talking about their horrors there....I have decided that I will no longer use the 4shared site.

So, If you know how to set up a zen cart....please, I need help....I want to have one set up for my personal use to give away my freebies. This way, I don't have to send anyone to a site that may or may not give them a virus or trojan.

Until Next Time!

Look What My On-Call CT did with my latest kit!

I have three ladies that have signed on to be on my on-call list for a CT....and just look what they have done with my latest kit! These layouts wer done using my "You've Got Male" kit that just went in the store at Digital Scrap Garden last week.

The first two are by Kirsten aka ColaBears.





These next two are by the daughter of a very good friend of mine that got me hooked on scrapbooking message boards back in January 2007. Thanks again Sue!!

These are by Andrea aka Pigletpotpie.





I hope you have enjoyed looking at these layouts as much as I did.

If you are interested in getting on my on-call CT list....drop me an email at dbibb5134@gmail.com Make sure to put "On-Call CT" in the subject line!

Until Next Time!

About Time....Right!

I know.....its about time that I take a few minutes and post something new on this blog. I could say that I just wanted my last post to stay prominent for a while to give it a really good chance to get me a long list of people who might want to be part of my on-call CT team....but is that the truth???? I'm not telling!

Anyway, some good news....or at least I think it is....I've had 3 ladies respond to my on-call list. They have their first kit to work with and it is a new one. One you have never before seen. Oh! You want to see the preview...you say! Well, I can probably find that preview lying around here somewhere and give you a little peak!

Oh....I did find that preview....here it is! This kit is called You've Got Male. A perfect kit for all those men and boys in your family....but, I think it would also do really well for some not real girlie layouts, too! Jump on over to Digital Scrap Garden and check out the kit!



Maybe I can talk one of my CT members into making you a QP using this kit and get it posted this afternoon sometime.....so be sure to check back!

Oh yeah.....I just remembered! I also made some wrinkled overlays! The are also in my store at Digital Scrap Garden. You can check them out HERE!



Until Next Time!
