Wow awards, tags, tutorials, im so behind lol

Yup i have been putting off things because when i get in a creative moment i need to follow or i will lose it. As you can see as fast as i got the last couple kits out lol. Now i have been in the tagging mood, though it hasnt turned out very well for me lmao. But before i get on to the awards and such i wanted to remind you all that for $10 you can get all my kits for a whole year. I promise a minimum of 1 a month. So even if thats all i did, thats 12 kits for $10, how cheap is that? But if you have noticed, i have released 3 kits in less than a month, so thats even huger savings. And if you cant shell out $10 all at once, you can always pay $7 for 6 months, where i promise at least a kit a month as well. Ok enough selling...for now lol.




I received these 2 awards from Luna's Reflectionz
Thanks so much hun i appreciate it!
At this time i really dont have time to pass all the awards on since i have gotten so many in such a small space of time. But i appreciate each and every award.

Wow awards and Q & A's lol

First of all, thank you very much to everyone who has stopped by to grab my part of the blog train. Just to remind you, the link will be taken down Saturday morning and i will start selling it in my stores. So grab it while you can.

I was once again awarded the Proximadade award.
This time from Sizzel of Sizzle Designs and from Stacey of S & M Creationz. Since i have no one else to give the award to, i just want to award it to everyone i know who has an awesome blog. So follow their links there on the left. Thanks so much ladies! You rock!

I also have been asked to do a Q & A from Sizzel of Sizzel Designs and from Jo & Jules at J&J Scrappers...so here goes lol.

Kissed By Sizzel's and Jo & Jules' Q & A


1. How long have you been using PSP, PS?

I have been using PSP for over 4 years now. When i first heard about it, PSP 8 was fairly new, so i tried the demo. After it ran out a friend got me PSP7. I used it mainly up until my last computer's MOBO blew. Now i mainly use PSP 9, though i also have X2. As for PS, well i just installed it last week and used a few actions. I am basically lost, but im sure i will figure stuff out soon lol.

2. How did you get into making tags, scrapkits?

Well, i played on a game site called Pogo.com and i met with some really nice people. One day they sent me an invite in my mail to an MSN group. Well i had only had my computer a couple months by then i had no clue. But when i got there i was astonished by these things called Siggys or Tags. I am naturally artistic and crafty so i told them i needed to know how to do those things lol.

3. Who`s your fave artist?

Omg i cant choose one. But for sexy girls, definitely Garv, Elias, Jennifer Janesko, Dean Lee Norton, Les Toil, Popeye Wong and Barbara Jensen. For fantasy, Sue Dawe, Carrie Hawks, Carla Lee Morrow, Deborah Grieves, Abranda Icle Sisson and T. Allison.

4.Who`s your favorite Scrap Designer?

Hmmm can i say myself? lmao im just kidding! I dont know, but since i learned about scrapkits, Clarey and Fee were my faves, so i would have to say them.

5. Which three blogs do you visit everyday?

Well ya mine, but hmmm Scrappin Cop, Delicious Scraps and J&J Scrappers

Ok Ladies its your turn, just replace Sizzel's and Jo & Jules's name with mine and forward to 3 people you want to know a little more about.

I am sending this on to:

Rachel of Rachelz Expressionz
Felinesrus of the Feline's Den
Melissa of WhisprdDreamz Designz

Friendship Around the World Award

Thanks so much to Auri
You can visit her at
Distinctively Auri Scraps

This award is called the "ProximidadeAward" or "Friendship Around The World Award". Originally this award was written in Spanish, but it translates to highlight blogs that are pleasing or special in some way and also to extend the hand of friendship around the world. And now I have to pass this award on to 8 blogs.
I hope i can choose 8 lol
J&J Scrappers ...of course LOL
The Felines Den
Desing Ateliers Creations
SC Designz Scraps
Whisprd Dreamz Design
Darla's Place
Foxy's Designz
Sonya's Funhouse
Whew thats 8 lol.

I will have news about my newest PTU kit soon, i keep adding to it lmao. Its for Thanksgiving. Ours here in Canada is this coming Monday so im hoping to finish it soon. Anyways, have a great day all!

Another award, a new tut with my new PTU kit and other stuff

Wow what a day lol. My hubby had to work over time on a Saturday which is great. I hope he has OT for while cause its getting cold and we have no heat cause we couldnt pay the bill when he was laid off. We owe $1200 for our gas bill at the moment. He doesnt even make that in 2 weeks, let alone paying our other bills and food, but i am hoping we will work something out. It wouldnt be so bad if this wasnt an old drafty house with 10 foot ceilings lol. But dont worry, i am positive they arent allowed to keep it cut of when it gets cold, so i will be contacting my Member of Parlament to ask what i can do. Dont worry about me, just pray or keep your fingers crossed, i would appreciate it.
Anyways, i was making this webset with my new PTU kit and the tag turned out awesome, so i decided to write the tut for it. You can find it on my tut site, Vella's Tutorials for PSP. It's named after the kit, A Bright Autumn Day. This is what the tag looks like.



Also, a member of the Sweet n Sassy CT team made 2 LOs with my kit, which i say looks so darn good lol. Here is how they look.





And i was awarded another gold star award.



This award comes from Darla of Darla's Place

The rules are i have to pass this on to 3 people. Hopefully this time they will pick them up lol.

Vella

I have been awarded

Well i was awarded this awhile back but i totally forgot, im so sorry Melissa. You know how things are, right? lol

I received this award from Melissa at WDDesignz

Thanks so much hun!


The rules are as follows: Rules of this award, if you receive it Pass this on to 4 of your most trusted friends blogs, then post on their blogs to let them know about the reward. Well i really dont know alot of close friends who have blogs, since most of my friends run in different circles. But i think i can at least nominate a couple of blogs. First of all, i am gonna give it to the one who gave it to me, she was so helpful to me, even if she doesnt realize it, but you were hun. So, here are my choices....


1. Melissa at WDDesignz
Well as i stated above, she helped me with my beginning in scrapping


2. Lynne at Baby Cakes Scraps

I emailed her asking her where she learned how to make scraps and unlike some others i have encountered, she replied to me. She is actually my mod in the learning group. She could have ignored me like other people, but she didnt. For that i am forever grateful. So she deserves this award i think.


3. Jo & Jules at J&J Scrappers
They nominated me for my very first award. They are also very generous and kind. I dont know them well but that small gesture gave me the confidence to continue in this path of scrapping. And since there are 2 of them and i really cant think of anyone else to nominate, i will say thats 4 LOL


I hope this little gesture makes all of your days as well.

Hugs

Vella

Wow, i got an award!

Yup, J&J Scrappers awarded my blog yesterday. Why dont you click on their button on the right there and go see, it made my day. I was especially having a bad day and well today isnt much different. I took my kids to the water park on Monday. It was alot of fun BUT i didnt use enuff sunscreen and got so BADLY burned its unreal. Today is Thursday, 3 days later and it doesnt feel much better. Actually, last night it felt like it was getting worse. I am waiting on a call from my MIL, she was supposed to go to my pharmacist (she works in the same mall as them) and ask them if they have something i can use or if i should go to the hospital tonight. I will not venture outside while its sunny out lol. Heck, i have been in PJ's since Monday night. Not the same ones mind you but in PJ's. I took one with spaghetti straps and took the straps off and used a safety pin to hold it up just above my boobs. My chest is badly burned, about as much as my back and shoulders too. So i have been at my computer alot because i cant move my arms much. I look like a robot lol. I havent felt very creative either. I really wanna dress up my blog some but the HTML is a little beyond what im used to. I still have bloggers links i wanna add, buttons and blinkies etc ugh. Ok i need to stop procrastinating and get it done. I need a swift kick in the rear end lol. So i guess this is where the blog will end so i can open PSP and try and get some stuff done. Hope you all have a great day!
