Well, the September kit from All Moments Remembered is sold out (their kits sell out really fast).
But I love it and I've got two (thanks to All Moments Remebered). One for me and one to give away, so just leave a comment and I'll draw a winner sometime tomorrow.
There are lots of layouts using the kit that you can check out here on Heather's blog.
And because a post just isn't a post without a picture...
One of my favorite shots from the summer (the summer that went by way too quickly).
wow you are so generous, karen! great photo too.....annie looks so small there ...so cute!

Is it perhaps a rock that the little one on the right is trying to put into her bellybutton and has stolen her attention for the moment? LOL

Great summer photo!
Posted by: Sara R. | September 10, 2008 at 10:07 AM
Wow! Another chance to win that gorgeous AMR kit. Here's to hope. This is the first time I've visited your blog. Are those four little girls yours? They are adorable. Loved reading your comments about your little Annie's language. Brings back sweet memories of when my own were in that stage. Some things just need to be recorded to keep them alive.
I saw that you will be in my state of Louisiana but down quite a few miles south of here. Always wishing some kind of good classes would come this way.
Enjoyed reading your blog and will be making return visits. (Even when you don't have such a wonderful giveaway!)
Posted by: Gloria Martens | September 10, 2008 at 10:07 AM

I would soooooo love to win this kit. At east it would bring me out of the depression of not getting into any of your classes this past Monday. Yes, I'm still hurting, and honestly have lost all hope of ever being able to get in since I'm number #60 on the waiting list! Oh how sad. My husband encouraged me to look into other classes (I had been talking about you and your class for weeks, so I guess he just wants me to shut up and start a class already! LOL), but I want YOURS! Love yours. Sigh. Anyways, I won't whine anymore, but this
K-Kit looks unbelievably cute.
A-A look at it just left me wondering about all I could do with it!
R-Really, please pick me because it would make me so happy, and
E-Even if I couldn't get in your class at least I would get something from you!
N-Now that would really make my whole week!
Thanks Karen!
Posted by: Sharon | September 10, 2008 at 10:24 AM
Very cute picture!! Love the picture of Tater (that's her name, right?) checking out the belly button!! :-) Very fun! Thanks for offering the give away! Hope I win!!

Posted by: Sarah H. | September 10, 2008 at 11:10 AM
Karen,
Thanks for the chance to win. I got in to your photography class, even though I was so nervous I spelled two things wrong and had to go back. I guess the Comcast internet is worth the money. I have to say just like everyone else it felt like Christmas morning as a child getting in. I can't wait for January now. It is nice having something exciting to look forward to in the middle of winter. Thank you!
Posted by: Erin | September 10, 2008 at 11:11 AM
Wish your lived on the East Coast & not the West Coast. You need to teach a photography class in NY.
Posted by: Gale | September 10, 2008 at 11:11 AM

Posted by: ginaharpur | September 10, 2008 at 11:22 AM
hi karen.
i asked my husband a few weeks back "IF i actually got registered and made it IN the class would you let me take karen russell photography class?" he asked "how much" i told him and he thought for a second and said "sure. go for it"
and then i forgot on monday until noon.
oh well...i'm not quick enough anyway.
but just him saying yes was exciting enough for awhile. :)
i love scrapbook kits. what a great idea. i am so glad this is the new thing because it makes it so easy to find what you like.
congrats on selling out in 2 minutes.
you are that awesome.
