Doodle Borders~ Set 2

DoodleBorder_set2.jpg

Here is a super cute way to frame your LO- Hand drawn Doodle Borders!

I remember when I used to “paper” scrapbook. I loved to draw doodles around the edges of my pages. Now you can do it on your digital pages! With my hand doodled border frames.

Another great use for these doodles is as frames. When you have the perfect photo one of the first things you do is find a frame to show it off. Well the same is true in digi scrapping. These adorable Doodle Borders will be the finishing touch for all your photos. Use them as is to frame, or layer behind other frames as a base to create beautiful clusters.

Doodle Borders~Set 2 includes 7 doodles borders.

12 by 12inches- The perfect size to just drag and drop onto your LO. But a simple re-size to fit around any square photo.

300 dpi and in png form- they will work in any photo editing program.

Here are a few LO’s showing off my Doodle Borders~Set 2

By prettyingreen- Using Teri’s Momma Mia Kit and my Doodle Borders~ Set 2

By ~Aim~ Using Scrappy Cocoas New kit (look further down the page to see more about this kit) Summer Garden. And my Doodle Borders~ Set 2.

Challenge Spotlight – June Word Lovers

Is anyone else as excited as I am about the amazing amount of comments I got from last weeks post? So what did it, was it the new knowledge that you get a free kit for doing the progressive scrap? was it the overwhelming desire for a chance to win one of my goodies? Or was it the fact that all you had to do was sign up and not really complete a Layout? Yeah totally the last one huh? No matter!  I am pleased as can be. So pleased in fact that I pulled 2 numbers out of the random generator! Yay! So comment 11 Sniksnak &  comment 2 crinkletoast are the lucky winners! And here is what they won!

Now onto the challenge spotlight! Lets hear a word up for Julie’s Word Lover’s Challenge! Every month Julie will give you a great way to use those words. Be it Word Art, journaling, or something else super fun like this month’s challenge which happens to be list your 10 favorite things about summer in your journaling! It’s your Top 10 Faves of Summer!

Here in SE Idaho, we’ve had no hint of summer yet, but hopefully the rest of you have and can make a great LO about your 10 favorite things! Here’s one from Steph to give you some ideas.

by Stephanie

By the way, if you absolutely adore the kit Steph used like I do, you will want to get those 365/52 Layouts in cause it’s Scrappy Cocoa’s (Steph’s) challenge prize. How exciting!

Be sure to get your Word Lover’s challenge done this week then come back here and post the link to your LO in the gallery and post it in a comment here. Next week I’ll randomly select one and that person will win a prize from ME! (Harmonystar). CT & those who have already done the challenge are elligable. Let me see those comments!

Challenge Spotlight – June Progressive Scrap

June already! Did you all have a good spring? We didn’t, it was cold, rainy, & snowy the whole time. June hasn’t started out that well either! Hope you all still have a little bit of scrapping time with the kids out of school and all the summer fun!

Yay for having to run the random number generator for this weeks winner! And the winner is…….. Trina! Hooray! Here’s your prize:

This weeks challenge spotlight is Rachel’s (not me, but the pretty Rachel) June Progressive Scrap!  

What’s a progressive scrap? It’s much like a speed scrap, only the opposite! It takes the whole month to do one LO. Once you sign up Rachel will send you a pm with a small portion of a kit then post the first instruction.

You will then have a certain number of days to complete the instruction. Then post your LO to the Progressive Scrap forum (NOT the gallery yet). Once your LO is posted, it’s FIXED. Meaning you cannot move your elements around. 

She will then post the next instruction and PM you the second download.

and so forth…

You will only receive the free downloads if you complete the instructions and post your LO within the deadlines. If you join late or miss a deadline, you can still play using another kit – you just won’t receive the FREE kit. This way, you will still be able to get credit for the Monster Challenge AND play along with everyone else.

At the end, you should end up with a free kit or free mini kit and a layout from that kit. You can then post your completed layout to the gallery.

What a deal right? Here’s a few of the great LO’s from last months progressive scrap.

by tanni

 Isn’t that an adorable kit they got for last month? for FREE! I wonder what kit you’ll get this month! Better go sign up and find out!

And since we’re just starting, all you have to do to be eligable for my free prize here is to leave a comment saying you signed up to play this month! yup that’s it! Sweet huh? Go to it!

Preview Description Service by Teri

GS_ttomj_dps-01.jpg

In Real Estate is Location, Location, Location, but in the Digi Scrap world, its all about your descriptions. Let me write your descriptions for you for your Scrapbooking Kits. I have years of experience in advertising and have a fast turnaround, usually within 24 hours upon receiving your kit preview. All you need to do after purchasing this service, is email me with your invoice number and a picture of your kit. I will in turn, write you a description and send it back to you as quick as possible. I always end the description with “Name of Kit” includes: ( you can add your contents here when I send the description back to you) If you do not want to list contents, simply delete this last sentence. Here is what some of the designers that have used my description service are saying:

“I don”t know how she does it…. but in a matter of a few sentences Teri has me wanting to buy my own kits! She will take a look at the preview and create the perfect paragraph to describe my products. I can take that description and use it in the store description, on my blog, facebook, even twitter a line or two…. promoting it in every way possible. She can not only help you with product descriptions but also any event advertising tid bit, call or contest. Anything you need written- with style, whit, and wonderful creativity, Teri is you gal! You will not be disappointed.” Ginger Looper owner/designer of GingerScraps

“Teri’s descriptions are catchy and fun and I think bring a curiosity to the kit that I could never capture in my own product descriptions. Her service is one that I have used over and over again and will continue to do so as long as she provides it. Tabby Butler of Scrapberry Designs

“As a designer and a store owner, Teri’s description service has been a tremendous asset for me. It has allowed me to focus on designing and leave the details to her. She is not only professional, but very timely and I would recommend her services.” Babette of LBCreations – Designs by Babette

Challenge Spotlight – May Word Lovers

Hey there my scrap challenge loving friends! Sorry I missed you yesterday, had to go to work, but I’m here today to give you your challenge spotlight! But first we need a winner from last week. Dun….dun….du …..dum  crinkletoast! She was our only comment from last week, sometimes I feel like I’m talking to myself. 🙁 Anyhow for you I have the same prize as last week. the mommy/daddy overlays. Perfect for this past mother’s day & coming father’s day!

This weeks spotlight challenge is Julie’s May Word Lover’s Challenge The word for the month is of course anything about Mothers! This is a fabulous idea for a page. Who doesn’t need to pay a little digi scrap love to their mothers? or perhaps express what you love about being a mother?

Here’s a beautiful example from one of our Gingersnaps:
