11.30.12 - Snow Blocks v.1

Sorry I'm slow getting to your inbox today.  I've been running around like crazy trying to get everything ready for Christmas.  We've put up the tree and I've started my Christmas shopping, but still have a ways to go on that.  Why are teenagers so hard to shop for?  But at least my 6-year old is easy to shop for.  She's happy with most any toy.  Enough about me, I know you really want to see what's new this week.... right?  Well, this week's release is a 2-page template pack with lots of blocking so you can show off all the fun papers in your kits or fill some of the blocks in with more photos.  You can decide what works for you and end up with a fabulous 2-page layout everytime.  Not a 2-page scrapper?  No worries, just crop down one of the sides to make a single page layout.

Snow Blocks v.1



I love it's snowy/Christmasy feel, but don't let that fool you.  These templates can be used for any type of layout from Christmas to travel album pages too.  Just take a look at all the fabulous layouts my CT girls created with this pack.  They all used the same template but came up with such different layouts and really let their own personalities shine through.  I just love these gals!  Aren't they fabulous?  *insert me blushing with delight!* lol









Well, that's it for today.  I've got to get back to my designing, before the kids get home from school.  I've got lots of fun things planned for December, so make sure you and your scrappin' friends are subscribed to my newsletter and watch my blog and FB too.  hint, hint!

And She Scraps...

Do you ever need a little down time?  I did this week, so I scrapped, and scrapped and scrapped!  It felt good to just enjoy myself and get some old photos ready to go in my books.  All of these were photos from 2010.  Take a look all the layouts I did.  I'm just a little excited - aren't I?  hehe

Using One 'n Only v.1 from keepscrappin designs
Inner Punk from Cluster Queen Creations and geniaBeana Scraps

For this last layout I used Chelle's Creations new We Wish You a Merry Christmas Bundle and a template from my new pack this week.  The pack is called Lickity Splits v.1 and it sure was fun to put that layout together lickity split.  It just all fell into place so quickly with the template.  And it turned out quite nicely... if I do say so myself.  =)

I've been going to hex-tremes

Have you fallen in love with all the hexagons that you see showing up in layouts everywhere?  I have!  So I decided it was time to make some hexagon templates, so we can join in on the hexagon fun too.

Hex-tremes v.1

They are a little different from my usual style, but I also love them the most right now!  Infact I love them so much that even though I didn't have a lot of free time I scrapped with them.  I just couldn't get enough of them and used Chelle's Creations new Letters from Home kit for this layout.

Also, don't forget to rotate and add or remove photo spots to these templates or make them into 2-page layouts for even more options.  Just take a look at the stunning layouts the CT girls made!

10.12.12 - Inclined 2 Scrap v.2 and freebie reminder

Are you inclined to scrap?  I am!  I really needed some scrappin therapy this last week, so I scrapped and scrapped!  Of course I used some templates, so I could have some no fuss scrappin' therapy.  It was so fun to get some layouts finished and just let those creative juices flow.  Here's one of the layouts I made using a template from my Gimme 5 pack and Chelle's Creations new Eeeeek! Bundle.

This week, I'm releasing the second pack in my Inclined 2 Scrap Collection.  Inclined 2 Scrap v.2 was made with the double AND single page scrapper in mind.  The two templates in this pack coordinate so you can use them alone for a single page layout or together for an easy 2 page layout.  Just open both templates in a 12x24 inch document and scrap away for a 2-pager.

Also, don't forget to rotate and add or remove photo spots to these templates for even more options.  Just take a look at the stunning layouts the CT girls made!  They really knocked my socks off this week.
