goodie giveaway

Lately I've had an overwhelming amount of love for this guy=> His unabashed, shocking humor definitely keeps my life interesting. L♥ve ya babe. Since this is my blog I can insist that you sit through cheesy moments like that. :P
Now for the 2 giveaways I planned on doing last week... That's why you are really here. ;) I made this page using The Girls Loft kit that I'll be giving away to 2 lucky bloggies. Before we get to that, I did want to share that one of my favorite routines recently. Posting collages of pictures on my blog either made in photoshop or picasa (like our day at the lake seen below) then printing out the collage. Saves time because when I am ready to create the photos are too.First, you probably know this little lady, Margie, and I'm sure you've used her cool products since she was the Style Director at Making Memories for many years. She is also planning Spark with Rhonna, Jefra & me & has become an instant friend. If you've ever gone to an event with her you would know that she is pure fun. The Girls Loft is her new venture-a fab kit company- and she has 2 kits to giveaway!! Her signature pink and green color combination kit & the fun summer August kit... wahoo!
Also, I have a giveaway of some fun tags from 2GirlzStuff on Etsy. Very cool tags that are super versatile & colorful! You will be spotting these on lots of my upcoming projects.
Leave a comment with your name to be entered to win: one of the 2 kits from The Girls Loft or this stash of awesome tags!!

I am a huge fan of collages!! I bought the foto fusion software specifically for their way cool collage feature. I did my daughter's first year album with a collage of each month on one side of the double layout and a single favorite photo with journaling on the other - way cool.

Collages mean you don't have to pick which photos you like best, you can use them all and all on one page!!

I hope I win one of the kits, but those tags are super cute too!!! Thanks for the fun give aways!!
