I’ve received several requests for a housework and chore themed kit. One of my sweet creative team members, Tammy, asked me to work on this theme before Christmas and I’ve finally gotten to it!! A Perfect Mess includes 24 textured papers, uppercase alpha, over 75 unique elements and 29 unique word bits. It is 35% off during our Birthday Celebration HERE at Scrap Orchard. When you purchase the kit before April 4th, you will receive the coordinating A Perfect Mess Stickers for FREE!

I had the opportunity to work with Andrea of Little Green Frog Designs. Andrea makes super awesome templates! She made some really cute coordinating templates and charts that work perfectly with the kit and stickers! Make sure to check those out while they are on 35% off during our sale this week as well!

A Perfect Mess Sneak Peek


I spent this weekend at the Scrapbook USA Expo in Sandy, Utah. It was so much fun! I was lucky to meet a lot of members of the digital scrapbooking community and I was able to spend a bunch of time with some of the girls on my team at Scrap Orchard. Can’t wait until the next one!!

I have completed a brand new kit which is releasing this weekend. I worked together on a this project with Andrea of Little Green Frog Designs who is an AMAZING template designer at Scrap Orchard. Andrea created some super fun charts and templates that you can use for lots of different projects, but they also work great with my new kit, A Perfect Mess. These will all be releasing in our stores on March 29th. But you have a chance to get them for FREE! Just post HERE in my blog comments for a chance to win a copy of my kit, A Perfect Mess, the coordinating stickers AND a copy of Little Green Frog Design’s, A Perfect Mess Templates and Charts!!

You Make Me Happy…


Recently I participated in a designer collaboration kit for Scrap Orchard called You Make Me Happy – When Skies Are Grey. I love it so much and since it is available only for a limited time, I wanted to make sure you are aware of it so you don't miss out. (I also created a fun alpha freebie that coordinates with the kit which I’ll share with you shortly.)

You Make Me Happy – When Skies Are Grey is a HUGE collab that is available this month for only $5 HERE at Scrap Orchard. It has a huge (and super cute) variety of happy and sad elements that you can use to create all sorts of pages.  Make sure to click over to the shop to check out the additional previews. There are oodles of papers and elements, and they aren’t all shown here in this post!

I’m working on a new kit that will release March 28th. I’ll be back with some sneak peeks very soon!

If you are in the Salt Lake area March 22-23, I will be at the Scrapbook USA Expo in Sandy with the Scrap Orchard team. If you come, please make sure to stop by our booth and say “hi” to me and the SO team. I’d love to meet you!

I created an add on alpha that will be available for free for only a very short time. I called it “Happy Skies Alpha” and I hope you like it!

Bugging Out


The weather during the month of March in Utah is super unpredictable. It can be springy and warm, or there might be three feet of snow outside on any given day. Today the sun is shining and it’s really the first day that feels like spring this year. My kids are outside playing on the (still yellow) lawn and enjoying the weather. Fingers crossed that it will last!

I have a brand new springy kit available HERE in my store today. Bugging Out is a bright and happy insect themed digital scrapbooking kit. It includes 23 textured papers, full alpha in 3 colors, over 70 unique elements and 27 unique word bits. Bugging Out is on sale during Fresh Fruit this week at Scrap Orchard. I am offering my subscribers and followers a larger discount. Take 35% off (instead of the regular 20% discount) when you use my coupon code (valid through March 14th). Coupon code: KA-35PERCENT


In addition to the extra discount coupon, when you buy the Bugging Out Kit this week, you will get the Bugging Out Sticker Pack for FREE! The free with purchase offer is valid only through March 14th.
