Holy Sweetness!! (What'd you get?)
 

I'm sitting here in complete awe of my "new stuff" scrapping folder thanks to the 4 free kit deal going live today! I literally could not.help.myself. I know I'm not the only one!! So with a $20ish budget + all the free kits, my folder is overflowing with pretties!

What'd ya get?

I'll be back soon to show off. Just getting up off the floor from shock

My main scrapping focus right now is (1)getting my 17-year-old's albums done so I can print books before she moves out, and (2)scrapping our vacation pics which have a ton of waterpark photos. The FWP Moody kit is perfect for my daughter, and then I ended up grabbing a couple summery bundles for my vacation pics:

And of course got all 4 (!!!!) FWP kits! :wub:

Before I go, can I just say.....I really wish I had some babies around to take photos of....I am loving all 3 of DSI's baby story kits this week!!!!

For real!! I seriously considered buying one because they were so beautiful, but decided to go with something a bit more practical for me :p

I decided on some wishlist things I wanted.

and of course the 4 FWP kits!!!!

same....they are beautiful and I'm sure I could make them work for something, but not practical right now ;)

I hope she sees this, but when I saw her collection I almost cried--like literally teared up and had to calm myself down from fully breaking down!

The emotions of getting pregnant, the joy of being pregnant and the grief that goes along with a loss were all captured so beautifully in that collection. Of course I bought it. Who knows if I'll ever scrap about a little piece of our heart in Columbus, GA, but I HAD to have the collection! If it made me THAT emotional JUST seeing it, I needed to have it!

Agreed. So nice to see someone addressing loss of pregnancy and fertility issues. I did not buy the kits but when I scan all the old photos of my kids I may have to get one!

What I DID buy:
Just couldn't resist those hedgehogs!

And a good kit for boys!

I have not dealt with loss, but I was extremely drawn and moved by that one the most. I wanted them all, and truthfully I'll probably go back and grab them at some point. They are gorgeous

I ended up getting all four FWP and these two:

I've been contemplating all evening. Do I shop new release sales, my wish list, or a combination? :unsure:
I agree about that baby collection. I immediately saw non-baby uses for it because it is just so beautiful.

I grabbed that beautiful bundle right up, as I'm working on finishing my 7yo's baby book (yeah . . . second child syndrome is real, lol) and then have plenty of 1-yo photos of her to scrap, as well as a 9wk miscarriage I haven't really scrapped about yet -- this bundle is exactly what I needed.

Wow thank you all so much for your kind words! I really hope this collection can help you document some of those heartbreaking moments or even provide some scrap therapy and also the immense joy of having a baby hopefully <3

And the 4! FWP kits!!

I wislisted Erica's templates too because I need them at some point!

I'm still deciding - definitely going to do the minimum spend because the 4 kits are definitely worth i but not sure what to spend it on atm

I really debated buying the collection because I've never scrapped about my miscarriages. The collection is absolutely stunning and has inspired me to get our story on a page. It will probably take a while, though :wub:

This is what I bought yesterday... I couldn't resist!

(ugh! I thought I bought the Mega Collection, but was in such a hurry to see the FWPs, that I derped)

I'm still completely blown away about getting 4 FWPs with only a $20 purchase!!

I bought three items and I am so excited about the FWPs ! They are gorgoeous. The designers did such an awesome job on all three of them ♥

It made me very emotional as well but I knew I just had to scrap with the Grief kit first.....losing Jasper's twin was really hard (eventhough it was early in the pregnancy) but it was good to be able to scrap about it. Eventhough it was 15 years ago, I still wonder if J's twin was a boy/girl and what he/she would be like. A few tears were shed when I created my Miss You layout.

So many pretties I want in the shoppe! Deciding what to buy took me hours of visiting the shoppe, looking at a bunch of things, walking away, then going back to narrow it down again! I finally checked out though. In addition to the 4 FWPs (4!!) I got these:

Well I wasn't gonna buy anything but I ended up breaking the budget anyway!! :crying:

I found a small remaining Gift card so that made my choice a bit easier. And I can't pass up on the chance to win $50 for the Passport challenge.
So just because it's so gorgeous I had to have all 3!

And this one because I love that heart mat with the stitches above.

Gosh, I totally need all 3 of these!!

I haven't spent any money on scrap stuff this year, so I feel zero guilt about spending $21 and getting all this in return!
