We Have Snow In Texas!

It's been snowing like crazy here this afternoon! The kids are all out school for the Christmas break until
Jan 5th, 2010. And enjoying the snow, what little accumulations we have gotten so far, maybe 2 inches or so....lol. (For Texas that's ALOT!) LOL.

I have my videos linked below *smiles* If you'd like to see.

This was taken at 1:43 pm CST
This at 3:05 pm CST 
Can you believe the snow fall? I know I can't and we are STILL getting it now at 5:00 pm!....LOL
Here is one of My Boys enjoying the snow!
Got my cup of hot tea, kids had their hot cocoas after playing outside, and we're fixing to head to my Mothers house here in just a few to spend Christmas with her and her fiance and my sister and her family.

So for those that will be out and about (like me and my family) be safe and safe travel prayers for you to and from til you are back home again!

Merry Christmas to you all and a very Happy, Healthy New Year in 2010!

* Sapphyre's 12 Days of Christmas Goodies *





With Christmas approaching fast...I have decided to make and share 12 items that you may use for PU (Personal Use Only) Some prezzies may have elements, or papers or even small mini kits that I have made from scratch in PSP.




My Christmas gift to all of my friends out there on the internet. I hope you all will like them and find many you would love to use. You can make tags, blog layouts, stationery. But please do not re-upload and re-distribute these goodies, send your friends here instead to pick up their own and please do not claim as your own. I do not require a link back for these, but if you want to link back to my blog, it will be much appreciated *smiles*.



If you do make a tag please show me, I'd LOVE to see what you made *smiles*
email me here with BLOG RESULTS as the subject to sgd1970@att.net and I will be glad to post up your results for everyone to see *smiles*



The goodies start rolling in tomorrow, December 14th and will be coming in until Christmas Day!


Hugz and Happy Holidays!

*** UPDATE ***

Good morning everyone out there :)
just posting up a quick update to the blog. Hope that you are all enjoying the new fun tuts here at my blog. I know I sure am enjoying writing them and using some awesome kits to bring my tuts alive with!

I have slowly expanded on my CT tut writing! I am so very excited about this new venture and meeting new people! There are alot of us from the same groups so this makes entering as a new CT member so much more fun and exciting!

Anywho....am also slowly learning to do my own scrapkits! YAY! These things I've learned take alot of time to go from start to finish and I just want all of the Designers out there know that I CT for, I truely appreciate all you do! All the time, effort, creativity that you put into each kit is just SO amazing! I hope to achieve that one day :) Will be trying to add another new scrapkit to my blog here very soon! So if you liked my first one, there will be more for you to snag and enjoy!

Hugz and thankz to all of the wonderful CT groups I am on, Designers for awesome "stuff" and both for giving me the opportinity to see what I can create and share with others!

*** Update ***

Hi everyone,
§apphyre here with an update for the site! I have recently set up a "new" blog to host my full tutorials on for the tags I create. On this site I will be showing only the previews for my finished tags, and will be linking each to their respective places on the new blog!

The new blog link is: http://sgd-tag-tuts.blogspot.com/

Taking me a little bit to learn my way around this blog site, but I am not giving up, I'm persistant in learning to get a good feel for this thing and hope you all will like the outcomes of my learning :)

See y'all soon and hope you enjoy the new tuts that will be coming up for the month of September!
