Fresh Baked for September 07, 2012
September 7, 2012 by
Is it really Friday? I swear, I turned around it was already Tuesday. Then Friday. Wow. It’s been a short week here, courtesy of Labor Day. I’m a day behind.
The weekend though gave me lots of opportunities to experience the beauty in life. I love that feeling, don’t you? Just being able to take a deep breath, smell the hint of fall in the air (or spring, depending on where you are in the world, of course). It’s the chance to take a moment, and soak in the beauty all around us. That’s what makes life beautiful!
Life is Beautiful is more than just a great buffet. It’s an ability to reflect on what exactly makes life so wonderful and grand. Maybe it’s the smile on a child’s face. A fresh rainfall that makes the air feel more comfortable. Even just the ability to sleep in can make a day, and life, beautiful.
So, while you’re reflecting on the beauty of life, make sure you check out what the designers have cooked up. There’s a little something in there for everyone. The movie goer, the back to schooler, even some commercial use! It’s a great selection of new!
Remember: 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!

Sneaky Peeks!
September 6, 2012 by
Good morning everyone!
This week has been a wee bit crazy, and I blame having Monday “off” (except mommies never get a day off 😉 ) and throwing the entire week into a “What day is it again?” Beth is out so I’m taking over for her today… lucky, or perhaps, unlucky you! 😛
I’ve got just a few sneak peeks for you today but enough to get your excited- well, I’m excited! So get ready, this is going to be short, sweet and I can’t wait to see everything in shop tomorrow!
First up is a beautiful looking kit from Kawouette Designs
I absolutely love the soft feel to this and neutral enough for all sorts of pages that come to mind! I am super excited about the paint splatters I see and the papers are so dreamy!
Speaking of papers, here is something coming from Joyful Heart Designs! These grungy papers have such warm feel to them I can already see them in some gorgeous fall/Autumn layouts!
Sticking with the trend of warm colors, this pallet from Connie Prince has me thinking of my favorite season and wishing for it to hurry up and be here already!
I love the purples, golds, greens, browns, the everything! I am really excited to see what else is included in the kit! Not only does it look like a promising wishlist item 😉 but the page created has some true words of wisdom- thank you to the CT!
I’ve got one more for you, a new release by Blue Heart Scraps!
I am SO over the moon for all these colors! I’ve got my eye on those hidden ribbons and banners too, and the papers! OH THE PAPERS! I’m just so entranced by all the color honestly, I can’t stop oogling it, my brain is all sorts of mushy so excuse the horrible writing. 😉
That’s all I have for you today, I know it’s not much, but quality over quantity right? 😀 I can’t wait to see what else sneaks into the store tomorrow. Make sure you pop in first thing tomorrow morning to see all these designs and more in full!
Have a happy scrappy Thursday!

Challenge Spotlight – Mini Kit Challenge
September 4, 2012 by
I can’t believe it’s already September–that is just plain insanity! It was just spring…now it’s fall?! Well, it’s sort of fall. It was over 100 here in Texas yesterday so, let’s call it “fall.” 🙂 I spent the long hot holiday weekend inside gets all kinds of scrapping done! I’m gunning for the big prize at the end of this month and I’m already halfway there! Let’s catch you up to speed with this week’s challenge spotlight; I’m talking about Crystal of Inspired Designs’ mini kit challenge! I just love the colors of this min, rich and pretty for fall and so many ellies, can hardly believe this is a freebie! Enough chattering, let’s take a look at what she’s got for us this month!
Absolutely beautiful, Crystal! What’s even more beautiful are the amazing layouts the ladies of the forum have already been busy at work creating! Seriously, it’s just the 3rd of September and these are already flooding in! I guess everyone’s excited about working with such a cute kit. 🙂 Let’s peek at their pages for some inspiration!

Amazing work, as usual! Do I ever expect anything less from all the talent we’ve got pouring out at GingerScraps? Of course not! 😉 I adore April’s journaling and title work, Judy’s use of “patterned white space,” and Poki’s ribbon-y paper strips! All fabulous, gals, I love them!
Now it’s your turn to join in on the fun! The mini kit challenge runs from now until the end of the month, so jump in, grab your freebie mini and scrap us up something pretty to see in the gallery! You’ve got a shot at some awesome prizes–you even get a prize just for doing one challenge! (Just because GingerScraps loves you like that. 😉 )All you have to do is post them to the gallery and keep track of your completed challenges in the September Challenge Points Tracking thread.
That’s it for me this week, I’ve got some schoolwork to do (and some regular work, too!) so I’m off! Hope y’all have a wonderful week and get some scrapping in where you can. See everyone next week! 🙂
