ABCs & 123s
I have a new kit in the shop today, just in time for Back to School season: ABCs & 123s
This collection is packed full of pretty papers and elements to help you scrap all those precious firsts for this year.
Inside you’ll find 8 patterned and 6 plain papers as well as 33 elements (including paper pieces, flowers, ribbons, word art and more!), with a collection of stamps (each saved in a coordinating dark brown, light brown and plain black.png files).
Also included is a set of 5 lowercase alphas in red, yellow, cream, green and teal. Each set also includes an ampersand and a set of numbers 0-9.
There are a lot of goodies to be found inside!
This kit has also been split into a separate paper pack and an element pack. Or save when you purchase the entire kit together!
Here are some wonderful layouts from the girls on my creative team. First, here’s one from Lizzy:

You’ll find ABCs & 123s on sale for 35% off now through Friday. Why 35% off? Because it’s Back to School time:
Save big on all new items in the shop today, then come back and save on ALL my designs, both Sugarplum and Girl Friday goodies, August 28th through September 5th!
AND! One more thing…
I made a little freebie add-on for you today! I would love to do this more often. Sometimes I just run out of mojo and I don’t have anything left to give. LOL! But I worked through that mojo-less slump this week and came up with a little something special. I hope you enjoy it:
Download here: ABCs & 123s Freebie
(If you have any trouble downloading this item, I’d highly suggest trying the wonderful 7-zip program, especially if you are an IE user. It always solves all my un-zipping issues. It’s the best!)
Happy scrapping!
Sneak Peek!
I have a new collection coming out this week…

Coming this Thursday—stay tuned this for more details!
A Sweet Day
Well… I guess my busy life was bound to catch up with me!
My mom came over on Friday to take my oldest two kiddos for the night. When my husband came home Friday night, we joyfully skipped out the door to go on a date night (because we thought just having one little one with us was about as good as having none—LOL!). After that, we ran to a few shops to take advantage of the tax holiday here in Florida. I was excited because I found some cute maternity shirts on sale—the first new maternity clothes I’ve bought in 8 years! Wow…
Then Saturday was filled with swimming lessons, grocery shopping and a nap (for Mommy!). I thought “Hmm… I could get on the computer, but I feel more like doing XYZ with the family right now.” And Sunday was the same. We went to church, ran to Wal-Mart and then went swimming later in the afternoon. Last night, as I was getting ready for bed I said to my hubby “I haven’t been on-line all weekend! Wow.” And he said “Well, that’s bound to catch up with you tomorrow, huh?”
So, then this morning, I was walking around the house, thinking about this week when I remembered something—something that had totally slipped my mind: I had a new release at SUN this weekend. Oh. my. goodness. How could I have forgotten that? o_O I guess I was enjoying all the shopping, napping, knitting and mellow pace of being off-line, huh? Whoops!
Well… better late than never! Ha! Without further ado, I proudly present to you, A Sweet Day.
I was very excited to get a chance to pair up with my good friend, Ellie Lash again! Our last collab was… well, it was a loooooong time ago. Well over two years now!
We teamed up this time to bring you a precious collection of soft papers and sweet elements. Included in this collab, you will find 18 beautiful patterned and plain papers, 58 elements (including bows, flowers, word art, handmade paper pieces and more), and an upper and lowercase doodle alphabet with numbers and symbols.
Since the weekend is now over… the Sunny Weekend sale at SUN is also over. So, I’ve made a coupon code for you to use so that you can still save 30% off on A Sweet Day (valid now through Wednesday at midnight). Just enter this code at checkout: sweetsavings
Now for some lovely layouts from the girls on my creative team! First, here’s a sweet layout from Kate:

We hope you enjoy this sweet new collab!
Happy scrapping!
Just a Girl
I have a new collab in the Boutique today! I was so excited to get to make something with Laura of {simply.scraps}. Together we made one sweet and spunky lil’ kit that we named Just a Girl.
This collab is rockin’ with funky colors and a little bit of attitude. It’s just perfect for scrapping a page all about yourself or your favorite teenage princess!
It’s also great for Back to School layouts, with all the great doodles and pretty patterns in this kit. It makes me think of high school!
Included in this collection, you will find 14 fabulous plain and patterned papers, 44 elements (including lots of word art, doodles, stickers, flowers and more!) and a lowercase alpha with numbers 0-9.
You’ll find Just a Girl on sale now through Friday for 20% off at the Digichick.
Now, hold on to your hats! I have a ton of beauties from my team, the Digichick’s team and Laura’s team. Is it possible to have too many beautiful layouts to share? Maybe…
Let’s start with this beautiful layout from Laura!
