Oldfashioned Love Song now available

My final kit for the Designer Darling contest at Stuff to Scrap. Although I did not make the cut into this round, I am playing along and have a full-size kit free to download from the links at Stuff to Scrap (post #46). Additionally, there is an extra border cluster available right here (scroll down for the link). Here are the previews for this kit, a bit vintage and shabby, and perfect for scrapping the loves of your life, past and present, and heritage layouts. I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed creating it!

Fresh Breeze Extras Are Here!

Here's the extras to round out the minikit I posted earlier. You can get the FREE download here.
Enjoy!

Fresh Breeze: Spring is Coming!

A gentle breeze brings the scent of Spring’s promise to the earth after a long winter. Fresh colors and textures promise a reawakening of the body’s need for sunshine and flowers. Enjoy the realization of this promise while scrapping with this FREE minikit, also full of fresh colors and textures, and elements that speak of Spring and everything we love about that time of year. You can download from the links in the submission thread. I hope you love this one as much as I do!

An add-on for this kit is coming. Check back later today.

I made it into Round 3!

I am so happy to have moved on to Round 3 of the Designer Darling Contest at Stuff to Scrap. The competition is getting fierce, though. My submission is good for both personal and commercial use, and is free for a week. Hope you like it! Download in the Stuff to Scrap forum, post #5.

Forever Friends Extras

Beef up the latest kit I made with these extras (they just seemed to round out the collection, and will help you scrap your photos of various kinds). Grab the extras here. Have fun, and show me your layouts!

Forever Friends free this week!

My new kit for Round 2 of the Designer Darling contest at Stuff to Scrap is now available. It's inspired by the friendships we have, whether they are in our online lives or offline lives. Celebrate your friendships and capture your memories by scrapping with this soft and feminine kit. Free download links in the forum here. Extras will be available here tomorrow. Enjoy!

Time to vote for your favorite kit in the Designer Darling contest at Stuff to Scrap. Go here to vote. I'd be grateful for your vote on this one! Plus there are lots of beautiful kits from other contestants to check out. You can download the kits this week while they're free, from the submission thread for Round 1. I'll be back next week with a new kit.

The promised extras are here!

I've got the Vintage Fall extras for you today, which are a great set of 4 papers and 5 elements to round out the kit nicely. You can download them here.

Another contest starts!

There's a new designer contest that I've joined, and I'd love for you to check it out. My kit is in just my style, a bit vintage, with realistic elements, and I really like how my papers came out. I'd love to see your layouts with it, so let me know where to leave you some love! You can see everyone's submissions at Stuff to Scrap. The download links for my kit are here. I'll be posting a little add-on that you can pick up right here.

Round 3 of the GDS Designer Contest: Winter's Blush

Here’s a new free kit for you, available in the gallery here. There’s not just the kit, but also the cluster frame. It’s a great way to get a layout started!

And if you still need more, here’s the extra bits, which you can download here.

I hope you enjoy these goodies for your winter scrapbook layouts!

Designer Contest at GoDigitalScrapbooking!

I'm doing it again, and I have a new free kit for you to snatch up if you like it. The provided palette just called out to me with visions of Mint Chocolate Chip ice cream, Andes mints, etc., so that's what inspired my kit, ChocoMint. Scrap some of those favorite moments at the ice cream parlor or candy shop, or even a birthday party. Colors and elements suit layouts for either boys or girls. Have fun with it!

Just click here to go to the gallery page where the links are. And check out everyone else's submissions for the contest.

I've got an additional freebie for you, a matching alpha which just looks so yummy to me, good enough to eat!

Pick up the alpha here.

TWO contests this month!

I've jumped in with both feet this month and am participating in the DigitalScrapbookingStudio contests, one is the "Next Designer Contest" and the other is "Layout Artist Competition 2012" (more about that later). You can snag my kit, Moondance, and any others you may wish to have in the Gallery there. The kit is not available at this time. You can, however, still pick up the glitterstyles.

 

This set of Glitter Styles matches the kit, but can be used for anything.

Enjoy!

Grandson News & New Freebie!

DH and I have a new grandson, just born on Tuesday, a big boy named Cody. We are so happy for his parents and big sister Alex and look forward to greeting him in person soon. For a little look at his first photos (shot by his Dad), here's my layout, made with Booland's Purple Haze kit.

It's in my gallery at GoDigitalScrapbooking.

I also have a new freebie, a minikit made for this month's Color Challenge with Linda Cumberland at DigitalScrapbookingStudio. You can download it here, for the short time it will be available (till the end of the month).

Have fun scrapping!

Join the Birthday Celebration at The Studio! Lots of fun contests and challenges during the celebration, and ways to win cool stuff. Here's a free template that I made for you, which you can download here.

Made from one of the layouts I did of photos from our China trip:

Here's a layout I did as a memorial page for my great-great grandmother (for the Heritage Challenge at the Studio). Lots of genealogical information on her from her obit. I owe a lot to her for being one of the family genealogists in the 19th century, keeping the memories and the information for posterity. Thanks, Nancy!

Contests and Free Kit!

I've been in a scrapping contest recently at the Studio, and have submitted my 4th layout. It's been a great month, with 4 layouts I'm really proud of. Here's another one I did of my granddaughter playing in the fountains at the Memphis Zoo, using the Blue Wave kit and alpha by Julie C Designs.

And then there's the designer contest at DigiScrapConnect. I've made a free minikit that you can see and download (for a limited time).

You can capture the Elements and Papers for this kit for free. Hope you like it!
Edit 6-27-11: Ran out of bandwidth on my box.net account, so here's a new link to the kit: LongHotSummer

Memorial Day layout

Here's a page I made honoring my heroes--my Dad and all the other soldiers amongst my ancestors. It's for a scrapping contest at the Studio, so drop by and see if you'd like to join.

A Fairy Birthday

My granddaughter just celebrated her 4th birthday with a fairy party, and it was a lot of fun. The invitation had this picture her dad took that worked out so well for my layout, The Fairy Queen. The kit is a beautiful one, Faerie Moonlit by Lorie Davison, available at Studio Girls Scrapbookgraphics. The alpha is Binty's Gold Glitter Alpha from Bits2Kits.
