Hi Scrappers!
Happy Mother's Day to all you moms out there! To celebrate all the mothers out there, I have included some quotes about mothers.
Nothing else will ever make you as happy or as sad, as proud or as tired, as motherhood. Elia Parsons
A mother is she who can take the place of all others but whose place no one else can take. Cardinal Mermillod
For the mother is and must be, whether she knows it or not, the greatest, strongest and most lasting teacher her children have. Hannah Whitall Smith
And I thought this last one was funny:
If evolution really works, how come mothers only have two hands? Milton Bearle
So here's to all the moms out there! I hope your families appreciate you and show you some extra love this Mother's Day. Take advantage of the day and don't do any chores! Also have someone take some pictures of you with your kids - so many times us moms are the ones taking the pictures!

Monthly Special - Kits!

Don't have time to crop - then just come to shop! Stop by at any of my Kris' Krops (dates above) and take advantage of my monthly special. Pictured below is one of my new page kits - the "Clownin' Around" Layout Kit - regularly $8 - this month $6.40!
New Product
The product I am highlighting this month are the County Fair papers from October Afternoon. These papers are in earthtones colors with each having a different coordinating pattern on both sides. This provides great versatility when scrapping your pages. The weight of the papers is also great - a nice cardstock. Pictured below is a layout I created. You too can create some beautiful layouts with these papers. Besides how can I not like this company - the owners have redheaded kids too!

Fun Websites
Here are some more fun and informative websites:
Paperclipping with Noell Hyman - Noell's website is loaded with tons of useful information about scrapbooking. Lots of great videos. Most recently she has added some great photography hints. Check it out!
What's Your Girl Smell - Ok this may sound a little weird but it is a fun website where you answer some questions and it decides what type of girl smell you are. My scent was "Pumpkin Pie - Warm, comforting, and a bit old fashioned.You've got what men want - believe it or not!"
Scrap to the Finish Line - this is an episode of Craft TV Weekly and it shows you how to make some great layouts without a lot of work! No creative juices required.
