lucky YOU!

lucky YOU!

Well, in the spirit of St. Patrick’s Day, (which I am pretty sure they don’t celebrate here) I have bee feeling bad that I forgot to put a little green food coloring in the pancakes this morning.. when I was little, we’d wake up to green milk, have green pancakes, and even green jell-o! but I did wear a green shirt today, does that count for anything!?

Well, in celebration of this  LUCKY day! i have a couple  LUCKY things to share!
First… check out this: do you want a FUN ‘lucky’ background (just like this one I am sporting)… for a few days? It’s available here to the first 100 people to download it… also, try just printing it out.. makes a super cute ‘lucky you’ card. It’s a fun time to tell people how LUCKY you feel to have them in your life, and would even be a fun one to have on a scrapbook page.  I even created a couple ‘lucky’ brushes that are  available today ONLY free to the first 100 downloads… you can see them here too! (it’s what I used for my blog banner and you can see them on my background as well… would be fun to have around as well! 3 handwritten words, and a ‘lucky’ definition! (i also used these frames for my blog banner)

EDITED: *** that was FAST, the 100 downloads are GONE! if you still want the LUCKY background you can purchase it here for .99$! and these cute brushes can be purchased here:

 

We are getting  ready to release some new content in addition to this and this that are new at House of 3. Mostly we are all working on some FUN for Easter! We are planning to help you be all ready for an awesome Easter celebration…before the ‘day before’. (typical of me).

One of the GOOD things about moving back home is that quite frankly, my scrapbook ‘stash’ is SLIM pickin’s. I mean, it’s bad. Today I was digging through my scrap drawer to try to find some fuchsia cardstock! And I had NO LUCK! And just a good ‘lime’ colored cardstock… or ANY paper… monochromatic… ? NOTHING! Man, (grrrr). Ok, so that is good news! And I had to postpone my shipment of my NEW ‘heidi swapp’ CHA goodies… which means, that I only have 2 sheets of each paper, and a couple meager chipboard invisibles and I do have the stamps. But I tell you what.. I am LOW. I am having to get REALLY creative. (what can you do w/ white cardstock! LOL).
ANYWAY, I thought that I’d pick a few LUCKY winners today… I have put together a couple ‘prize’ packages.. and if you are a winner, it might mean that you will get your goodies to play with before I do!! (yikes).

Today I am giving 5 LUCKY winners:

The ENTIRE invisibles collection:
2 of ALL the papers,  The chipboard Sheets, The chipboard ornate frames, the chipboard shapes that have birds, hearts, butterflies, stars… the works!, the 2 different alphabet sets (dots and gridlines) AND, since it just makes it FUN to use with the invisibles, I am throwing in a BRACKETS mega mask! 
you can see the collection in my NEW winter CHA catalog on-line…
but the chipboard looks something like this:

and the papers look something like this:

I LOVE to use ANY color of the TIM HOLTZ distress inks w/ this… here is a page I did, and posted a while back using the invisibles AND the Bracket mega mask…
We’ll be playing with this stuff when I come to Edmonton for the ‘All Day’ workshop! and in Houston at By Design Scrapbooks. You will LOVE this stuff… it’s exciting to try.

This is what the Invisibles paper looks like when i used the braket frame mega mask, and some Broken China Distress ink... (pls forgive the bad lighting!)








you might notice some Grunge board, and some verb stickers, and some ghost wings, and these stickers…
and some Bling

And I thought I would throw in a ‘bag clip’… because I think this is the coolest thing… it’s designed to hold your purse, or your scrapbook tool bag.. or whatever- just off the edge of the table. It’s perfect for a crop, and then out to lunch!  So cute! It just folds up and takes up no room at all! You have to see it to believe it!

Just leave me a comment and tell me what makes you ‘lucky’.. (for the record, I don’t believe in LUCK except in FARKLE… what I really mean is ‘blessed’!) today is a good day to reflect on our awesome blessings… I hope that you are feelin’ lucky today! I know that I am.


(last night FHE … eating Girl Scout Cookies smashed in icecream (thanks EM) and playing Farkle)
I was feeling PRETTY LUCKY to be eating Girl Scout Cookies (thin mints are my fav! i like them frozen)
oh, and CONGRATS to all you LUCKY GIRLS coming to Creative Escape!! if you haven't heard, don't give up hope! keep your fingers crossed!
