Yayyyyyyyyyy it's gonna be a SAS-y SCARY Halloween folks. I can feel it in me bones.........

But First.......

A little apology for the absence of part 4 of my Moments collection this week. That's because I get to host Lisa West's fantastic Halloween Grab Bag for SAS as Lisa is off doing much more important things, like having her baby, hehe. Don't worry though my little scrapsters. Would I send you away empty handed??? The only thing is...... which bag is my treat and which is the trick??? Ah well, guess you'll just have to find out for yourselves and take a chance. Click on the bags for something totally wicked and then go grab Lisa's amazing goody bag. Shhhhh, can I tell you a secret?..... This bag has some LUSH stuff including something for 'commercial use'. How fantastic is that.... hey, but you didn't hear it from me right ;)

Boo's Treat here

Sorry, Its gone

BIG NEWS......

Yes indeed. SAS is bringing you a host of fun and frolics this Halloween with a great game of hide and seek. How does it work? On Halloween you will find links here and at the SAS blog via the store to each of the Designers blogs where you will find a ton of Halloween 'GRAB BAGS' and other goodies. The question is, where will the next link take you and what will you find there???

To go to each of the links simply knock on the doorknocker that will 'appear' as if by witchy magic, on Wednesday (thats Halloween folks) to be whisked away to the next enchanted couldron.

Make sure you visit me at BooLand as I'll be hiding something too. Is it a Trick....or a Treat? Come back on Wednesday to find out.... hehehehe.

And lets not forget my newest 'Blossom', Michelle, with her fantastic entry for my Eye Candy Challenge. Well done hun, this is super and you earn the prized title of 'Boo's Blossom' for this challenge.Here's what she had to say about her Eye Candy...

'I didn't use the normal "boy candy", lol, because I all ready have 2 at home (my son and husband) and at this point in my life, the thought of even thinking another one as "candy" makes me tired. My "eye candy" is a Harley Davidson chopper I'd like to buy the day my youngest leaves home after high school so I can do what I want to do for once. That day won't come for 11 1/2 more years though. Lol. Anyway-here's my "eye candy". Hope you like is as much as I did when I found the pic. I love your kits, add-ons, and really everything you've made. Thank you so much for creating and making so many'

and thank you again hun. Very kind words and its my pleasure. i'm thrilled you're enjoying everything.

Thats it for now folks. Be sure to pop back here on halloween for all your links and SAS-y fun. Bring a friend or two, there's pleanty to go around.

Hugs

New's, LO's and Freebies too....

Hello again sweet scapateers.... and how are we today?

Well, I'm pretty good. Had a bit of a week of it but if you carry rubbish around with you it tends to get darned heavy after a while so I decided to let it goooooooooo......... lol. Boy does that feel so much better.
On the other hand, my Sweetie has been a complete Darling this week. I've had pressies, a book signed by Nigella Lawson, Oh I wanna be that woman, a huge bunch of gorgeous flowers deliverd, dinner cooked, the list goes on and I'm loving every moment of it. How LUCKY am I?!

This week I decided to do something a little different so instead of showing off all my layouts I thought I'd 'SHOWCASE' the fantastic Designers over at 'SAS'. Ok, so they're still 'my' lo's lol, but I wanted to give you a little peek at the wonderful work these gals do. If you are not familiar with their work, you should be because OMG, this is a whole bunch of talent and lushness in one super place.

SAS Designer's Showcase...
So here you are in no paticular order....

Happy Birthday Simon

It's my baby brothers birthday tomorrow (11th October) and he'll be 36 years young. Now then ladies, keep calm, he's still single and eligable but he is quite a handful as my next lay outs will show. So if any of you have any thoughts on a little ' romance' be my guest. Leave a message in my chat box and I'll see he gets it. Just don't say I didn't warn you...........

Credits ~ Lisa West ~ Pizazz

I'm using blue for my post today just for him as he's a huge EVERTON fan. Count yourself lucky Si. It's only because it's your birthday so don't go getting any ideas that I've changed from being a true RED..............yayyyyyyyyyyyyy......Liverpool Rock.

Now you can grab Lisa's fantastic kit 'PIZAZZ' over at her store on SAS and while your there, check out all of her other goodies. I'm almost dribbling at the thought of them.

A BIG THANK YOU Lisa for having me on the team.

EYE CANDY FREEBIE, the funniest video and more......

For all you Mum's out there who ever felt that all your efforts went unheard, this is for you. I found it over on IkeaGoddesses blog while on a Freebie fest and I'm still wiping the tears. Enjoy...

I also have some new LO's for you. First up is my effort for Lisa's ABC Challenge over at SAS. Todays challenge lo is for the letter B. Well, that was easy wasn't it, lol. I know I've used this photo lots but thats for a couple of reasons. First, my poor old camera finally gave up and died on my a little while back (I feel naked without it) and secondly, I just love this set of pics lol. Anyway, there's nothing wrong with a bit of recycling now is there.

This was my very first attempt at making a template myself and I think it turned out pretty well. What do you think?

Next up is a lo I did of, guess who, yeah, you got it, Elly, lol. These shots where taken just before the Summer hols in the back garden and they show Elly gathering and blowing Dandilion seeds. She just loves that game. Sadly, my garden doesn't, hehe

Credits~ ScrappyBlueStones 'BlueStorm' kit. Template by BooLandDesigns

Now I just had to share this lo with you because I used a kit I discovered whilst on my Freebie fest yesterday over at the wonderful Ikea Goddess's blog. I just fell in love with this kit and couldn't believe my luck that it was a freebie. It's just full of gorgous stuff and I do mean 'full' girls so if you love freebies of quality, head on over to Kasia's blog and grab it for yourself. Don't forget to leave some love if you do. Here's a little look at the kit.

Another freebie I grabbed a little while ago was this. I just love the bright vibrant colours of this little kit and the texture is to die for. Oh how I wish I had an ounce of the talent these gals have for creativity. The photo's are of my mum and little (not so anymore hehe) brother, Simon. He was at a friends wedding and my Mum popped over to see him all dressed up. Ahhhhh, how sweet was that, bless. Can you believe my mum is 65 years young? She's wearing well isn't she.

Credits~ http://valgouveiascraps.blogspot.com/

I just had to show you guys this next lo. My mum recently started an Art class to give her something to do during her retirement. This was her very first effort using pen and ink with 'bleach'. Yup, I did say 'bleach'. How cool is this.Credits~ Frame by BooLandDesigns. Paper used from ValDesigns (see above kit)

Oh Boy......... I've been a busy girl havn't I, lol. What, 'more' lo's? Yup, and guess what, PC has been behaving himself, well, reletively anyway. He still groans under the massive weight of my 'Freebie' folder hehehehe (that was an evil laugh in case you didn't hear it???)

The EYE CANDY Freebie is here.....
Now then, finally, a couple of lo's using my little freebie 'EYE CANDY' kit for this month. The worthy winners of this title go to the World cup Rugby Players hence the colours of deep greens and lush browns. Hope you like.

Here is a preview of the Mini kit along with the links

So come on ladies, get to work and email me your hadiwork before the closing date of 5th Novemeber. Remember to include your email addy so that I can email you the link for these gorgous DT's and believe me, I've tested them and they really do look fab.
