Yes - I am still here! and P365

I thought it was about time I wrote something on my blog as it has been a little (okay, a long!) time since I did so!
I decided I would do a P365 this year - take a picture a day. I did think about doing one page each week for easiness but some days I had more than one picture, or I couldn't decide on a kit which would suit lots of different photos, so I took the plunge and started doing one page for each day!
So far, so good. I have scrapped 54 pages which I will start to post on here today!

All of my pages so far include Date Tags by Connie Prince

which is available as part of a P365 grab bag

Made it to round 2 and New Scraps of Ellay kit

Last week I told you about the Layout competition at Digital Scrapbooking Studio. Well I got through to round two so I got to work with the next kit called Gone A Courtin' by Ambowife Designs
This is the kit:

and you can get it here:
http://www.digitalscrapbookingstudio.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=13_85&products_id=3727
This is my layout for round two:
Only 35 go through so I'm keeping my fingers crossed again. Voting starts tonight at 12.00 EST and finishes midnight Tuesday.

Over at Stuff to Scrap, Scraps of Ellay has a new kit out. I'm not CTing for her anymore but I HAD to have this kit because it's gorgeous! It's called Child's Play and looks like this:
There is also a cardstock pack and a glitter pack to match, aswell as a set of QPs and they are all 25% off at the moment. Available here:
http://stufftoscrap.com/store/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=15_22&products_id=3285

I got mine this afternoon so have only done a couple of layouts so far:
As you can see it's full of lovely bright rainbow colours and is great fun. Both LOs use the kit and the cardstock pack.

I'll be back on Tuesday with details of any must haves in the $2 Tuesday section, and hopefully some more LOs with Childs Play. Fingers crossed I'll be back later in the week to let you know if I'm in round 3!
