Hey Buddy Digital Kit and Freebie

Hi everyone!  I hope you all had a great Thanksgiving.  How many of you braved the madness and went Black Friday shopping?  I skipped it this year altogether. 

Do you have your Christmas trees and decorations up yet?  If not, what the hay are you waiting for?  Don't feel bad, I haven't done mine yet either, lol.  I did get my tree out.  Last year I purchased one of those skinny pathetic looking primitive pencil trees from the Hallmark Store.  It screams sadness, but I love it.  I am in the process of attempting to make a tree topper Hat for it this year.  It has a great big bow, with long streamers that run down the tree.  We'll see how it turns out.  If I am not totally ashamed of it, I will post pics after the tree is decorated.  That way you guys can send all of your sympathy my way for having one of the saddest trees around, lol.

Deanne Gow-Smith from Scrapbookingdom has released another masculine themed digital kit named Hey Buddy.  Hop over to her Shop and check it out along with her other awesome Kits.

Check out the Kit Previews below.

Here are a couple pages I made with this fabulous Kit.

Wowzers! It has been a while......

My how time flies.  I cannot believe it has been so long since I have updated.  Time is a commodity that is truly in short supply lately.  Gardening season is done for the year, although I do still have my flower beds to contend with.  Do I clear and clean them or let them over winter as is to provide food and shelter for the little ones?  Hmm, I'm kind of liking that alternative.  Autumn is a beautiful time of year.  The colors are beautiful as the season changes. 

My Straw Bale Garden out performed again this year giving me more delicious veggies than I could eat.  I know I have mentioned it before, but I truly love and enjoy doing the garden in the bales year after year.

I have been travelling a lot more this year than in years past.  Although it is an amazing blessing being able to spend so much more time with family down South, it does take a toll on me.  As I continue to age, by the grace of God, it takes a toll on me physically more than ever before.  My creative time becomes more and more precious.

I made the decision a few months ago to turn part of my creative passion into an official business and open an Etsy Shop.  I have been designing, creating and selling Seasonal Wreaths in my local area for several years.  I have expanded that Nationwide now selling through Etsy.  You can check my Etsy Shop out at https://www.etsy.com/shop/BlueDoorWreathsShop/

I just ran a Pre Black Friday Sale and am gearing up for a larger Black Friday Sale starting Friday November 24th.  Pop over and check me out if you are interested in picking up any wreaths for your own home or as gifts for family and friends.

I was not able to attend the Fall Scrapbook Retreats this year as I had hoped I might be able to.  My plate is too full and something had to be placed aside.  I do keep up with my Digital scrapping with Deanne Gow-Smith from Scrapbookingdom.  She has had some gorgeous Digital Kits released lately.  She has also branched out into the traditional realm by offering some of her Paper Kits as 12x12 two sided printed papers through Paper Arts  If interested you can check them out here.  https://paper-arts.co.nz/

This Month Deanne is featuring Masculine themed Kits.  She has release two gorgeous Male themed Digital Kits already.  Black Cherry  and Check Mate  They are both available in her Etsy Shop.  Pop over and check them out along with all of her other beautiful Kits.

Here are the Previews and some pages that I created using these Kits.
