Sponsor Spotlight!!!!!!

WE would love for you to know more about My Sweet Spuds!

So here is my review of this Kit club!!!


Who is Spud? (copied from site!)


When I was a baby my mom loved to put me in drawstring pajamas. You know the kind? Where the string is in the bottom opening of the pj's and when you pull it they close. Since I was such a large baby, they had to tuck my chubby little arms and legs into the pajamas. My dad always said, "By the time we stuffed you in those pajamas, and pulled the string, you looked just like a sack of Idaho potatoes." And that's why they called me Spud. Well it stuck, and to this day they still call me by that cute little nickname (and I kind of like it). xoxo, Spud


1st.. I just love love the Owner!! She is sweet and totally rocks. My sister used to get her kits.. and Gina trys to work with you if she can!! 2nd.. I love this kit club... If you love to have a mix of manufacturers and fun non-scrappy embellishments, this is the club for you!!

Gina was so lovely to send a few kits to split between our CT!! So here are some of the work using the sketch with the prize kit!!! This kit rocks... I love the mix of Sassafrass Lass... I love that there is 3 different letter stickers... Love the mushroom, and milk tag. Oh, and I so love when they throw in a bit of wall paper and fun stationery... This kit has just the right amount of everything.... So go and check out the Oct. Kit!!!


Laura's Lo... So cute.. I just love how she used the kit!

Here are the projects Aleta did with her little bit of the kit!
