WOW! The days are passing me by here. I hope Im not alone here.
It is beyond RARE that I take ANY blogging breaks. I think this month has been the LONGEST-with so many breaks each week. Life had gotten busy.
I have to admit I miss you all and sharing here 😀 I have cut WAY back on my “workload” this past summer, and so getting a break has helped me to recharge!
That being said I have so many projects to come and ideas to share, I think (HOPE) it will have been worth my lack of posting daily lately. I have still been creating and doing things, just none I can readily share-yet!
This first week of Septemeber will be packed with posts and samples that will run – with the start of ATS release, straight past the Papertrey Ink/My Timeless Template release, into JustRite Stampers blog hop, and Pink Cat Studio’s release! LOL! Then some other stuff I have to share 😀
Trust me you won’t be disappointed 😀
I have also just been very busy with my husband recovering from surgery, getting the kids to as many day trips as possible, summer school, and now getting back into the routine of school! I am also working with the school on Alexa’s curriculum. That is never fun. OYE!
I want to thank you all who stop by and visit, and have bared with me during my hiatus-rest assured things will definitely be picking up as the BUSIEST time of the year approaches-the holidays!! I have been REALLY busy working on some COOL stuff, so I hope you are excited for all that.
Basically as of the first-there will be LOTS to share-non stop!
In the meantime there is lots of eye-candy going on in blogland, using the My Time to Create challenges I post here weekly. We skipped this week as it is the 5th weekend in the month-and we all needed a break with school starting 😀
So it is FINALLY time for me to post my TOP 5 template challenge picks for this past week!
Here are snippets of their creations!
Now Click their names to see what they did!
I have to say everyone who played blew me away! You all make me look so good with all you do with the templates! I cannot even tell you how much joy and excitement I get when I see the items you create!
Now I will FINALLY post the TOP 5 for the Inspiration challenge from HERE!
Again, so many great submissions-hard to choose!
Well I am back to the drawing board with many a projects to do.
THANK YOU again for stopping by. I appreciate all my fellow stampers/bloggers whom I consider friends 😀 You all make my day, and I am looking forward to getting back to the daily posting and hearing from you.
I’d LOVE to hear what YOU have been up to, or what you are hoping is to come 😀
Till tomorrow…….

Oh My Goodness Lauren! Thank you so much for choosing both my card & gift basket as one of your Top 5 picks!!! I am doing the happy dance right now!! I love your easy to use templates & I am looking forward to creating something with hopefully a new color inspiration challenge! ALL of your DT girls have beautiful creations that are very inspiring challenge after challenge! Can’t wait to see what you girls are up to next!! 🙂 Hugs, Mona
Congratulations to all your “top picks”. All of the projects are simply gorgeous!
I know what you mean ’bout being so busy. It’s been crazy here but I *think* I’m seeing the end of the tunnel. Maybe.
School starts back up for us in one week. DS has his senior pictures scheduled on Tuesday, DD is finishing up drivers ed., and the wee-one has his pre-school open house later next week.
I’m looking forward to seeing what you have in store for us coming up. I’m sure it will be great!
Hugs,
Renee
good morning Lauren, first off I love your website and all the crafting you do I visit here everyday for inspiration, my question is I recently had my harddrive go on my computer and had to buy a whole new computer I had purchased 10 my timeless templates over the last few months is there anyway to prove I purchased them …other than a print out of my receipt (which I never did) 🙁 my bad do they at papertry ink keep a copy of who makes a purchase and downloads a template… I would love to have them back and put them on the external harddrive I purchased so i’ll never lose everything again…
thanks for any feedback you can give

Lauren! Thanks for picking my card. I’m stinkin excited.
I hope you can catch your breath and have some fun “mytime” with the kids back in school.
Hi Lauren!
I know I missed out on the challenge…but life got ahold of me! 🙁
But, I just thought I’d share it with you anyway! I thought it turned out pretty cute and my Kindergartener LOVED it!
