Hey everyone,

:blush I'm new here. I'm a designer exclusively to ScrapitSassy. I was in another store but found that it was too much for me. Anyway, I was looking for a place to show off my layouts and possibly my Ct Members layouts too. I scrap a lot of photos of my family and friends. This sounds like a great place to do that.

:( I am newly single, I just lost my hubby on Jan 12th 2010 of pneumonia. This has been a long hard winter for me. We were together for 6 yrs and only been married since Oct 14 2008, so this is a really hard time for me. I'm only 41 and it seems to young to already be a widow but I am.

:yahooWe had no kids yet but we had/have 2 adorable puppies that I like to scrap named Shaylee and JoJo. And just this week I've added another puppy to our family in hopes of helping through this time. His name is Peanut. They are all Lhaso Apso/Poodle mixes and I just adore them as did my beloved Jose.

;) I love to scrap and design and this had become my utmost hobby so I would love to be part of this group. I didn't mean to bring anyone down. I just thought I'd share some about myself. I'll probably be posting lost of pages of my late hubby and adorable puppies. So thank you all for this opportunity. Can't wait to get started.
