Cyber Monday @ DHD

Happy Saturday everyone! We have 2 more Thanksgivings to go. One today and one tomorrow. The wind here is awful though and I really don't want to drive an hour in it.
Did anyone do any Black Friday shopping or are you saving it for Cyber Monday? Well, I thought I'd let you in on a pretty big sale that's happening over at Design House Digital on Monday. You can do a little early shopping for yourself this way!

Here's a little inspiration for using those holiday kits...

Happy Thanksgiving

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! I hope that you have a wonderful day and weekend filled with lots of yummy food and amazing family moments!

Is anyone doing any shopping on Black Friday? I have a friend that likes to do this but I have to admit that I've never tried it. It seems now that all you have to do is stay up late and hit the stores at midnight instead of getting up at 3 or 4 am. It's crazy! But nope, not me. I have to work and I'm fine with that. We get to decorate at work and then I have to come home and bake for 2 more Thanksgivings. Then Sunday when all the festivities are over, I get to decorate for Christmas! I'm really excited!
So, if you are doing any shopping...I just put up all my new headbands in my Etsy shop from the craft fair. There are a few different styles and lots of Christmas goodies! You can even go over to my Facebook page and click "like" to find an exclusive Black Friday coupon.
Again, Happy Thanksgiving and many Blessings!!!

You'll be able to pick up 19 quick pages from all of the decorators on this blog hop! Here's the page that I made with the 2011 DSD kit.

All of the quick pages are available in 12x12 and 8.5x11 sizes so that everyone can play.

Don't forget to stop by the rest of the decorators' blogs and pick up their quick pages too!
When you're done you'll have 19 pages that would make a great album all on their own.

~*~ Wednesday Giggles ~*~

This past weekend, I had a friend get married (our wedding photographer actually). They had a little photobooth set up and it was so cute! Guests could just jump in, take some pics and then the pictures would print and they signed in a little book next to their photo strip! My friend and I were there alone because our husbands were in the field so we really had fun with it. Just for giggles, here's out pictures!
Thanks for stopping by! Hope you have a happy hump day!
Anything making you giggle lately? ;)
