*it's pronounced phonetically- and it's a CYBER KISS, and the brackets are the hugs that go with it!*- And if you pop onto Bunny's blog- she has another list of SUPER cyber shorthand and some links so that you can decypher anyones you find that you don't understand- LOL, THANKS BUNNY WUNNY!!
And before I get to the more serious part of my post ( it deserves it honestly)- WE HAVE A NEW DESIGNER at DSO!! WOOOOHOOOOOO, Welcome Luisa!! And she has HER FIRST kit in STORE!!. Congrats girl- It's a STUNNING kit- and huge-LOL. Called Princess- you can see it here
AND NOW-
I have a VERY SPECIAL kit today that I would like to show and share with you-
It's a request kit from Judi Fisher - a Mother who lost her son much too early. She needed a memorial kit to scrap his memories with- It's taken me a while to get it finished, as I need to feel what I'm designing- and I needed to know a little more about Andrew,- The colours of the kit came from a beautiful story that Judi sent me ( I have included it in the files for you to get to know what inspired this kit and to get to know the thoughts behind it- as well as getting to know Andrew a little more)
FORGOTTEN NOT- a play on words from the flower *forget me not*, which comes from the story Judi so lovingly tells. There is 20 papers, 39 elements and
7 word art to complete this special kit. I have designed this kit so that it can be used for any type of LO too- not just for memorial LO's- PLEASE check out the close up previews HERE to see the details of what is in the kit- I have done a few so that you can see exactly what is in it- Andrew also has his own website, so if you have a minute- pop on and read a little about him and his family-
I also used it to scrap a memorial LO of my best friend and Ma who passed away from Luekemia!- I sat here with tears doing this one- but it's something I have wanted to do for a long time,
These photo's were taken Christmas eve,(6 months before she passed away)- and man, I just loved how she took EVERY minute and made the MOST of it- ill as anything here she is bopping away with her son Andre! It's one we will NEVER forget! I don't journal much on my LO's as I usually let the photo's do the talking- but on this one I HAD too, and I feel like I've honoured her memory in a way- and it feels good.
I have a sampler for you too-
There is 5 papers, 2 clusterflower ribbons, 1 straight ribbon, mini bow with heart accent, worn button, wrap ribbon with cross accent charm and 1 ric rac. http://www.4shared.com/file/35555453/c1c949e3/kb-forgottennot-sampler.html. The Kit is 25% off at the moment for a limited time - Thanks soo soo much again for all the support and love I received yesterday- I feel like I can conquor the WORLD today- and my fingers are flying through photoshop too- LOL, Woohoooo, Mr Mojo sure hit good! Sending you MUCH LOVE and HUGS- Kim

Tonight I cannot play as I have to finish the rest of the alpha and I'm so running way behind schedule.
I'm so glad you're feeling better. Almost got me to be a real gutter mouth.
Bunny, you're a cow. I thought I was first. Oh, and if anyone reads that, it was said lovingly.
Morning beautiful!!!!
Blogged about you this morning......Mwah!...now to see what you blogged about that made Bunny cry...LMAO
mooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

Kim,thanx for this really lovely kit.When I use this kit I will not only think of you because you made it but also 'cause there's such sad stories behind it!Anyway purple is my fav color ,well done!Oh,btw thanx also for the comment you left on my blog,and yeah' I'm a true scorpio whose sting will always be ready for people that's hurting others that don't deserve it!
Oh, how sad but sweet. Kim, you are such a sweet person. But I won't tell anyone. lol My prayers are with you & with Judi.
Thanks Kim! What a great sentiment! Love the LO for you Mom as well!! (((HUGS))) to you!!!
OMG Kim this kit is MAGNIFICENT!!!!!
Unforunately my money is so tight that for now I'll have to settle for the BEAUTIFUL sampler!!!!!!!!!
TY so very much!!!!!!!!!!
I'm glad to see your in such a fantastic MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD!!!
HUGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I sooooo came today to laugh and laugh and piss ms. annonymous off and you have me crying like a 2 year old. That kit is so beautiful and such a wonderful thing for you to do. The word art just moved me. Love the layout you did of Ma too, so touching.
Can we laugh again tommorrow?
Have a great day!!!
Oh, Kim. I'm not going to be able to thank you enough for this sampler. In 25 days it will be the 2 year angel-versary for my mom, who also lost her battle with leukemia (CML) - 11 days after my 40th birthday. Tears are streaming down my face (sorry Bunny,) as I'm reading your word art. Is there any chance you'll off the word art separately in the DSO store? They're very powerful and versatile.
I often stop by here for my daily chuckle. Today I'm smiling through the tears. You continue to inspire many of us out here. Don't change a thing.
Thank you very much for the sampler and your abundant generosity.
i absolutely LOVE the layout, soo touching and dear!! thank you for sharing! And WOOHOOO! Your new kit is INCREDIBLE!! I LOVE your designs soo much and thank you for sharing such an AWESOME part of your new kit!!!
Kim your kit is sooo beautiful!! Thank you for the add-on and your story.
Kim,
Yesterday you make me laugh & now you go & make me cry. Darn You! I come here for Sunshine & Belly layghs don't ya know.
You are such a sweetie and this is such a special kit.
Hugs & Blessings, Me
What a wonderful thing to do. I tried to visit Andrew's website, but it isn't working. The kit is beautiful as is the layout of Ma. Thanks so much for sharing and keep those spirits up!
Kim first off that kit is absolutely perfect for your ma's pics and I am planning on doing some of DH's ma's pics as well. She was 39 when she passed and it has been about 12 years...this kit is perfect!!
Secondly...I love to come to your blog and read your posts, MWAAHH!! You are a hoot and a real pick me up. I love your attitude and outlook on life, it's the way things should be. It really sucks when someone who is unhappy with themselves has to bring others down. So don't let the anonymous comments bend your too much.
Stay happy and you can ROTFLYAO any time you want!! As for anonymous she can KMA!! LOL!
Hugs to you girl, Trace!!
For anyone that needs this I ran into this forum post by accident. It is a huge definition of acronyms some of which I've never seen used. Kim here are some additional ones to use and throw whoever posted in a spin. There are some really good ones! I hope someone can use them. I think I am printing out a copy for future use and referance, HTH, LMK, LUMB!!!!!!! (hope this helps, let me know, laughing under my breath) and last of all SETE (smiling ear to ear)
This is sooooooo much fun! I am now LOL! I could really keep at this for a long time, I feel like a little kid. That's not so bad is it?
MWAAAAAAAH to all of you including those that don't like it!!
What a dumb ass I am. I was so busy having fun that I forgot to post the link I was talking about. SMH, this is one of my own I think, it means shaking my head, ROTFL. No, I'm not really on the floor but I am laughing really hard. Well, here's the link:

OH, Boy!!! You have me in tears now but they will ease and i am so happy for this kit also...for our daughter...she would have loved it...she had very good taste...;o)
I have a couple paintings that she bought in our home...they make me smile a lot...but also make me sad too...they show the peace she wanted so much and got only with her leaving this world and going to her eternal life.
I ran across a photo of her that I love this morning...must scrap it now...;o)

Thanks for everything you do!!! and say!! I look forward to the laughs and giggles (so does my daughter). I usually end up reading your posts out loud for her to hear since she's usually on another computer. Thanks again for all the goodies and for being kind enough to take a special request that we can all use!!!
Just figured out how to post on your blogg... So i had to post here too....
This idea is awesome, Kim... It's so filled with love... It's a perfect way to keep the memories of our loved ones alive...
I feel so sad for Judi that have lost Andrew.. But heaven has got another precious angel...

That kit is gorgeous, I think the wordart will work great on some of my layouts of my angel baby thank you for the sample, I added the full kit to my collection Hugs Crystal xx
What a beautiful kit. It would be perfect for layouts of my dad. And thank you for the sampler. :)
Kim, thanks for the reminder. I think it will help me so much to do a scrapbook about my father. The layout you prepared so lovingly about your mother is very touching, and so much a part of the ongoing healing process. I still had so much I wanted to say to him. Thank you for sharing your heart .... your mother's heart. Love, Melanie
I don't see my post!:( I thought I finally did it! Well now I finally registered and I think this is going to work. Thank you Kim for your help!!! I just LOVE this new kit. And like so many others I have tears running down my round pudgy cheeks.:) Awesome! CMEO (crying my eyes out) You will see a lot more of my comments now that I have it down pat---I think!!:)
ohhhhhh kim,
i always post on the download but decidedly your WOWZA's were having more fun so I'm switchin! I'm pissed at u too - in the middle of ROTFL I click back a day and read about Judi and now i;m in tears...well leave it to you to hit all the emotions - you are a dollbaby! tysm!! you have the biggest heart ever - i love Ma's lo and the tears that followed! and the story!! (((((Biggg Hugggg))))thank you so much for the gift!!! its gorgeous!
Aww- made me cry too! You've done a fabulous job with the LO and the tribute to Andrew.
What a beautiful kit and tribute. Your journaling is so touching. Thanks for sharing such a special moment and person with us.
It's always hard to remember people you love so much and you feel so close to them when you've lost them. And if it's a mother it could be really painful and difficult. :( I know from my own experience.
Andrew's website is very sweet and a great tribute to him. It has to be very hard to lose a child so young. :( And it's really nice of you to have design a kit in his honour. :)
Thanks so much for everything and best wishes. :O)
