I'm celebrating hitting over 30,000 hits on my blog ( since I added the counter about 6 months into the blog )...
I have been working in every spare moment I can find to finish my HW for Digi Design Academy ( DDA ) so I can finish my Graduation Kit that I started about 6 weeks ago!
Below are some goodies that won't be in the kit but are just stuff I was playing with so I thought I would offer them out to tantalize you.
Did I mention how EXCITED I am about graduating AND my idea for the kit... I can't tell you what the theme or name are just yet but I am in LOVE with it and hope you will be too... as you can see the colors are a bit wild but you will understand better when I am done.
Suffice to say that I have elected to not participate in any color challenges till I finish this... I am the type of person who absolutely has to finish what I start.
For example, I started college @ 22 years of age with Two Little Girls... became a single mom by the time I was 24 but still graduated with my engineering degree by the time I was 30. Don't think for a minute that I wasn't tempted to quit but I just couldn't live with myself if I did. I got the reward though, and I'm not talking about the degree either, I met the man of my dreams about 2 semesters before graduating.... he was over in the college of business and now we have been married almost 12 years :) ( in June ).
I know some of you actually read my blog and we have become friends so that was for you guys {{{Big HUG}}}... now onto the gifties!
The First item up for grabs is actually in the color palette of the new kit:
The Second item is just some of my HomeWork assignments... a pin with a pearl, frame and border from scratch... that's right, I didn't use anyone's CU items.... go me :)
I have to go and touch my new Kathy Van Zeeland purse again.... so soft! I just LOVE her "style."
Have a Great Week and stay in touch friends :)

Thank you so much for this Freebie. I want to let you know that I posted a link to your blog in Creative Busy Hands Scrapbook Freebies Search List, under the Kit(s) post on Apr. 20, 2009. Thanks again.
Hi, Cindy,
I'm here, checking out your blog. You have such beautiful designs! I just discovered "Mishka's Room". How pretty!
You left a comment on my blog back in November. I didn't know that I needed to turn on e-mail notification or I would have found it sooner. I was ranting about my oldest daughter, who got married on our vacation. Remember? LOL
Anyway, I did what you said, I just smiled and kept on plugging away. She still hasn't come around, but, I am okay with that. I have moved on, in hopes that she works through her issues. There are some things a mom just can't do! LOL
I sure appreciate your comment. I'm not all that active in this community, but, I am around it all the time. I love digi-scrapping. I thank you for taking the time. I know you are busy.
I see you are in Florida, too. I'm in Gator Nation, Florida. LOL
I used to be rather active at Cottage Scrapbooks. Now, though, Stella has closed it. Now that SAS is under new ownership, I may try to go back there. I didn't have a very good experience when I first got started. Hope, then, to see you around the web.
Thank you,
Su
You are doing briliantly Cindy I just love the pearl pin!! It is a wonderful feeling to make something from scratch and really call ityour own. Terrific work!!
I know just what you mean about finishing what you start...you are one fiesty lady and I can well believe that you hang in there and get things done.

Thank you so much Cindy for your comment on my blog, so nice to hear from you! I haven't been feeling well lately, that is why it took some time for me to write back, sorry about that. It's like you said, sometimes life takes over and there's no time for blogging or bloghopping... Sending you love, and congrats to your graduation by the way!!!
