Hi everyone…Kylie here! :o)  This is going to be a short and sweet visit from me today (I know right…a post on a Saturday ~ it’s been awhile, hasn’t it?!…but what a lovely treat!).  I am here to share our latest FREE DESKTOP with you!

Our November desktop was inspired by the rich tones of fall…and even though I’m in the midst of spring blooms right now I’ll always be an autumn girl at heart…so this one was lots of fun to design :o)  I just love the earthy greens, browns and burnt yellows and oranges…gorgeous!  (And how perfectly beautiful is SP’s sunflower photograph?!  I just love it!!)  I’ve mixed in nearly all of our fall kits with this one…a little bountiful, a touch of autumn medley, a sprinkling of plentiful – all lovingly wrapped in the sweetness of Gracie!  A beautiful combination that I truly hope you enjoy the whole month through!

Hello, hello! Kylie here! :o) This is a quick post to share the FREE OCTOBER desktop! I enjoyed putting this one together for you all and designed it with a touch of fall sweetness in mind! Scrapping with GRACIE (our newest addition to the Shoppe!) was an automatic choice! Well, she is the flavor of the month, after all! ;o)…and a bit like chocolate or vanilla, to me, she’s destined to be an eternal favorite!! As always, the text (except for the calendar dates and the october title) and the cute piccies are on my example only – yours will be blank :o) That way – you can add your own photos/names/sayings/message/etc. Have fun working with this one…here ya go:

Hi everyone!! :o)  Kylie here with next month’s FREE DESKTOP!  September is the perfect time for a little HOPSCOTCH fun!  It’s one big smile on a page!!!  And here is something else to smile about…we have two desktops on offer this time round!  Choices, choices! ;o)  We’ve added a few super-cute back to school sticker elements and some old-school lined paper from the hopscotch SCHOOL additions…so if you’ve got little ones (or big ones) that have just started back at school our second desktop is just the thing to display a sweet first day photo!! You’ll get both versions in your download…then all you have to do is choose.  And, don’t laugh now, but I’ll probably rotate the desktops throughout September, just because the school stickers are just so stinkin’ cute…I don’t want to miss out on all the fun!! ;o)

AND…

Hi all! Kylie here! :o) Hope everyone has enjoyed their week – mine flew by …as did my whole July, really! The second half of the year tends to do that…must be that ‘downhill run’ thing – don’t you think?! And with lots on, well now, the days are skipping along way too fast for me! …Okay, enough of my <potentially endless> chit-chat (LOL!), lets get down to the important business of sharing our FREE desktop for August. I soooo enjoyed designing this one for you all. I adore the Once in a Blue Moon paper collection with a little splash of yellow cheer! So pretty!! This desktop reminds me of a lovely summer breeze flowing down the page. Ahhh…. :o) And, I’m not sure if anyone else has noticed, but it seems I have had a bit of a thing for circles this month! ;o)
