Fresh Baked for September 21, 2012

September 21, 2012 by Sarah Leave a Comment

It has truly been an eventful week! Things have been a little crazy, but in a good way, most of the time. Thursday, my brother-in-law married the love of his life, and I felt so blessed to be a part of it. It was amazing.

It reminds me of how life is so beautiful in the moments we get to share with those we love. Each moment is precious, and life can be fleeting. Getting to see two separate people become one in a union like that is pretty powerful.

I chose some layouts that remind me of the preciousness of life, using the Life is Beautiful buffet by the amazing designers here at Gingerscraps. I hope you enjoy them as much as I did.

Created by scrapjrlgcp. I love seeing love shared between siblings, especially a newborn.

Created by jenevang. I love that quote!

Created by MamaCake. SO many pictures! I can never make a layout with that many pictures look good!

Remember, if you want your layout spotlighted in the newsletter, you have a chance! Make sure you create it using the current buffet, and upload to the buffet gallery.

When you spend $10, you get this for FREE! This month, Pixels by Jen has created September’s new Grab-bag and it is gorgeous!

Happy Birthday Gingerscraps

September 12, 2012 by Sarah Leave a Comment

Do not adjust your calendar. You’re not confused. It truly is Wednesday, not Friday. Today, Gingerscraps turns FOUR! I cannot believe that it’s been four years. Sometimes it feels like forever, and sometimes it just doesn’t feel like it’s been that long.

In the past four years, we’ve seen new designers just starting out, and we’ve seen a few retire. Each year, we add to the Birthday Buffet, and this year is no different! It’s My Birthday has a few new additions!

We still have the previous minis, as well!

As always, the CT had a blast playing with the minis!

Shh!! It’s a surprise. Okay, not really but it’s definitely a sale! That would make the buffet items $1.40 a piece! That’s a gift that keeps on giving!

http://store.gingerscraps.net/B-Day-Bundles

Our designers have also bundled three of their previously released kits for just $5! I have a few in mind that I’m going to be buying, that’s all I have to say!

I don’t know about you, but one of my favorite party games is a good old fashion Cake Walk.
You walk around a circle and if you land on a winning number, you get a delicious cake! Well we have our very own digi Cake Walk!
EVERY purchase (of $5.00 or more) you make, between Sep 12th and Sep 16th, will grant you one walk around our cake walk.
If you land on a lucky number (chosen by a random generator) then you will get some delicious goodies! We have new- never released products (cakes) from some of your favorite GS designers, and TWO very lucky winners will receive a $50 shopping spree in the Site Collabs (gingerbread ladies collabs only) section of the GS shop. Over 30 lucky shoppers will go home with a scrumptious cake! All winners will be emailed their prize on Sep 18th. Don’t worry, we will track all purchases, if you spend $25 then that is good for FIVE entries into the cake walk. The more you spend the better your odds will be. Good luck and start shopping!!

It wouldn’t be a party at Gingerscraps without speed scraps! The CT and the Designers are all working together to give you LOTS of speed scraps to enjoy!

There’s also a Scavenger Hunt going on! Have a look through the store, and look for the Gingerbread man! There might be some hints in the forum, to help you in your search!

Another fun game is happening! What’s in the Designer’s purse? You have to match the designer to her purse! Each of them left some clues in the picture. Some might be a little harder than others, but not impossible, I promise!

DSD Weekend is upon us!

November 4, 2011 by GingerScraps Leave a Comment

Are you ready for the excitement of this weekend? I am beyond excited!

Jacque here – let me start with a little update. We had a crazy storm the other day that dumped over a foot of snow on us (yes! in October) and knocked out power for tons of people. Talk about a rude awakening – in the 15 years at this house – the power has gone out for no more than a couple hours at a time. 3 days with no heat was not something we were prepared for! Thankfully – all is back to normal and we are all thawed out! :)

The other update I want to provide you with is about the Daily Download for November. It IS coming!!! Things have been crazy with the behind the scenes preparations for DSD weekend but Ginger is working very hard to get it all set for y’all. As soon as its ready to go for you – we’ll get it posted – I promise! :) So – to tide you over – I’d like to invite you over to my blog to check out my very first attempt at a freebie mini-kit for a blog train. There are 2 templates there as well. :)

Okay – so now onto the fun of this weekend:

One of the greatest parts of DSD is the amount of Grab Bags you can get at an amazing price! Trust me – the GingerScrap Ladies have put together some goodies you don’t want to miss out on! Plus the WHOLE STORE IS ON SALE!!!! Click on the picture to hop right over and get to shopping! :)

The other part of DSD that I love (and hopefully you do too) is all the scrapping excitement! We have put together some amazing reasons to scrap as much as you can this weekend:

This must be it – right?

NOPE! Today is also the first Friday of the month so that means we get to Scrap n’ Chat with Cari too!

So… to recap – let’s get together with Ginger at 4pm EST to kick things all off, then we’ll chat with Cari at 9pm EST, and then we’ll chat with Jen at 10pm EST. Plus all day long you can shop the great deals and go ahead and get started on the challenges.

ARE YOU READY????? See you in the forum! :) Oh yeah – would you do me a favor? Click on one of those share buttons by my name tag and tell your friends about the fun! Thanks! :)

October Daily Download #21

Okay… so there seems to have been a little issue with yesterdays post. Apparently it posted but I somehow altered the date to the 12th so it posted way down the list. Oops! I found it! And now it is below the Fresh Baked Goodies post – so please scroll down and snag it as well.

If you have some time today – we’d love to have you join us for a speed scrap today with Cari Cruse. This one is very time friendly for our friends that aren’t in the US. Hope to see you there!

And now here’s today’s piece:
