Hear Ye Hear Ye....It's Almost the FOURTH!!!

Hi all! I am wound tighter than an 8 day string!!!


It is no big secret I am not a summer-lover...redhair, sunburn, hot weather when I am already well insulated for winter weather :P...but having said that, i have to say I LOVE THE FOURTH OF JULY!!!
I love the picnics, cookouts, family games and get togethers, community festivals, and hometown parades! I also ADORE the good ol' Red White and Blue being EVERYWHERE!!!
In honor of The Fourth (and in anticipation for a BIG announcement concerning my scrapping journey) I am giving away oodles of Freebies today!!! I did a layout using the kit I made for the 4th of July 2007...the layout holds the BIG announcement!.....


Yep, my very first OFFICIAL chat!!! The theme will be anything "family gathering"ish!....so come, chat and receive the freebies I have bundled up for you! (see the preview of the Doodles...)....
