Doesn’t it just look absolutely delicious!

But Wait!! Before you go to the forum, check out what’s new in the store!

Remember, when you spend $10 at the store, you receive an amazing grab bag. This month’s grab bag is by Unforgettable Moments. It’s perfect for the males in your life! June is the month of Father’s Day (at least in the States), so this would completely suit a hybrid project or layout for the special man in your life!

Challenge Spotlight – Template Challenge #1

O.M.G. It’s JUNE already?! That’s just crazy. The year is nearly half-over! BUT what isn’t half-over is the awesomeness going on in the forums! (Ok, that was a reach, but it’s certainly true!) Everyone loves freebies, right? (I know my favorite price is FREE!) So, let’s start off this month’s challenge spotlights with one that includes a fabulous freebie, the month’s first template challenge hosted by Connie Prince!

Connie has definitely always been one of my favorite designers and I absolutely adore her templates. Let’s take a look at what she’s created for us to work with this month!

CUUUUUUTE! I’ve got this one downloaded and I can’t wait to use it! I love scallops and paper stacks and this template certainly fits the bill! Need some inspiration before you start this challenge? You know I’ve got some for you: let’s see what the lovely ladies of the forums have created with this template so far!

By Neverland Scraps

Stunning work as always from our talented ladies! I love when I see a template changed in subtle ways that makes it unique to every scrapper’s LO. A round of applause for the highlighted LOs!

So let’s recap: new month, new challenges, new chance at a discount coupon/store gift certificate and a fantastic freebie! What are you waiting for?! Get yourself to scrapping and upload your work to the gallery so we can leave you some love!

As always, if you have any questions on this or any other challenges, be sure to head over to the Cookie Jar and ask away. We have a wealth of knowledge on GingerScraps and we would love to assist in any way possible!

Until next time, my lovely readers! <3

Weekly Wrap-up: It’s a new month!

I do so love it when the new month starts on a Friday- it’s like super bonus with the buffet and new releases and new challenges and and and..!

Since our newsletter just delivered you the royal treatment, I want to quick go over some things coming up. The end of the month can be so drab and quiet with all the finishing of challenges and some of us still  recovering from iNSD, plus Summer is in full affect most places and I sure hope that means everyone is outside  making memories!

First up, GingerScraps Book Club!

Our read for the month of June is The Lucky One by Nicholas Sparks!  I personally have never read a Nicholas Sparks book, but I hear they are fantastic so I can’t wait to start this one as my first! JoyLynn is also looking for some input, she wants to know what you want to see every month in the book club, she’s open to any suggestions!

Next, make sure to check out the Bake Sale happening RIGHT NOW!

You only have until June 5th to grab as much as your can for just $1 and let me tell you, there are some real surprises in this months bake sale! Do NOT miss this!

Did you know there is a brand-spanking-new challenge this month hosted by Jenn of Joyful Heart Designs? It’s a brush challenge! For the first month, she chose a wicked cool bird brush set. Brushes can be used for anything!  I know Jenn can’t wait to see what you all come up with, and neither can I!

Guess what? Z Pink Boudoir Designs is having a CT call! Join the Zeee-speration!

Guess what else?! JenC Designs is having one too! JenC is looking for Guest CTs for the summer months – but there’s a twist! More than one way to enter and more than one way to grab some of her super cute goodies!

Good luck to BOTH designers on their calls!

Now, to wrap-up the wrap-up (HA!), with the sunny days and the weather heating up, who’s ready for their summer do’s? Renee (MnMommy2) got everyone talking about hair (cuts, styles, color)! Which of course, got me thinking-  I need a hair cut myself! Except, I’m one of those that loves the cut for a few days then immediately misses my long hair so any drastic cuts are out of my future- but what about all of you? Who is getting a new do for summer, and more importantly will you scrap the before and after? 😉
