Who likes freebies?? :]

July 1st, 2009

Hi folks! La here! :] IT’s GOOOOOOOD to be back. I am so blessed to have friends like miss Dani Mogstad.. She and her hubby came to the rescue after all my server BS (lol to put it really lightly) and we’re now nice and cozy hanging out on a new server- without all that crap to deal with.

There’s this like major crazy storm happening outside.. It doesn’t actually appear to be raining (who knows, I have the curtains closed LOL I am going off of the report from my 5 yr old) but the thunder and lightening is quite impressive.. I loove storms :] Some of my fonder memories growing up were of sitting out on the porch swing watching huge storm systems blow through.. It apparently didn’t take much to amaze me  back then.

Anyway.. Why do I always babble about nothing? :p I said freebie right :p So.. Yes. Who out there Likes my Layered up in you stuff? :] As you saw last week.. I also added page templates into the mix of LUIY products. I’ve never been a big templater (is that a word? ) but recently got t he chance to try them out when I made the inspired by LO’s for June’s totm. I kept trying to add doodles to every template so I decided that I should prolly make my own set.. and add lots of fun doodley layers and shapes etc. I actually have trouble NOT doodling all over my layouts when I scrap.. I’ve tried to cut back (haha like eating too many cookies) but it’s a major struggle.. Anyway…… (again with the babbling) .. Making templates with loads of doodles seems to be helping curb my need to scribble on things :p Be sure to check out the set I released last week LUIY page templates 1 here... and while you’re here, as a thank you for being awesome.. and reading our lil team bloggie .. and all those other wonderful things (haha).. Here’s a freebie sample never before released LUIY page template :] I hope you enjoy!!!

2007 & Fruit

June 25th, 2009

Know what sucks?  Being 2 days behind.  Know what sucks even worse?  Being 2 YEARS behind.  People give you reeeeally weird looks when you do that.  “What?  It’s not 2007?”

So yes, I was supposed to show up here and do something really nifty yesterday.  I didn’t.  Or did I?  Anyways, it’s hot out so take this here quizzy for the heck of it and tell me… which tropical fruit are you?

Here’s mine *strokes beard*


You Are an Avocado


You are casual, laid back, and totally easy go get along with.

You are compatible with many different types of people, even those with strong personalities.

You are creative and inspired. You don’t put yourself in a box, and you aren’t into labels.

You are open-minded and diplomatic. People find your “middle of the road” ways comforting.

What Tropical Fruit Are You?
Next time, I owe you a snazzy magic trick or something.  Just don’t charge interest.  I’m not that creative.  Later gators and stay cool; there’s really no need to go outside, everything you NEED is in La’s shop, duh!
Love, rainbow-kisses, and some guacamole,
Annie
