A whole lotta Scrappin' going on!! :D

Okie Dokie, here's a crazy post of all kinds of stuff I've been working on! And, at the bottom of this post, there is a super great freebie if I do say so myself, so keep going even if it seems like it will never end, lol...

First up, I made a SUPER cute kit called I So Totally Love You to go into the Feb Grab Bag at DID!!
You can get it here:

**Links Expired! Thank you for looking!!**

Lastly, I joined the Lifting Hopes for NFED collaboration kit! But, there was kind of a mix up... So, here's what happened... They asked for 2 things... Everything had to be S4H ok and everything had to be named a certain way... Silly me forgot to name the elements the way they wanted so my elements got dropped from the collab... :(
SO, I decided as a way to maybe convince some of the freebie hunters that they want this charity collab, I would give you the elements I made for the collab! No use in letting them go to waste, right? And, if you already have the collab, you might also enjoy these little things I made to go with it, :D (I fixed the names, lol...)

SO, this super huge kit is really lovely!! It's over a Gigabyte of awesome stuff in a really cute color palette!! My awesome papers are in the kit:

I found this picture of my grandmother buried in a bunch of old stuff. Faintly written on it is her Valentine message to my grandfather, to whom she was married at the time. When they got divorced, a lot of stuff like this got pulled and stuffed. I just think this photo is so beautiful, and I wanted to be able to display it. So, I made a page with it, and took the opportunity to write a note to my Gramz about how beautiful and special she is and how amazing the legacy she will leave behind is.

This is my second heritage layout. I really like doing them, but I feel so responsible to the persons depicted in them when I make them. I want to do the people in the pictures proud. It's weird because heritage layouts feel more "weighted" to me, I don't know why. I don't feel like that when I am scrapping about kids, babies, or even adults. But, I do feel that way when I scrap photos that are from times I don't remember, from before I was born, from before photos came in color, lol...

I'm so strange. Does anyone out there understand what I'm talking about??

Products Used:
