Challenge Spotlight – Font Challenge

Well hey there, ladies! Happy Tuesday and welcome to March! Can you believe it’s already time for spring?! Seems like it was just Christmas and here comes St. Patrick’s Day and Easter! Sheesh. It was a bit chilly this weekend so I spent some time in scrapping. This week I am spotlighting one of my favorite challenges we do here at GingerScraps, the font challenge! This month is it hosted by Ivonne of Craft-tastrophic Designs and she has really picked an adorable font:

I love cursive fonts and this one flows so beautifully. The font challenge is always a favorite of mine because it lends itself to all kinds of creativity without restraining too much. In other words–it’s easy! 😉 Here’s some inspiration for you!

By Victoria32

By Ambelleina

Okay okay, yes–I spotlighted myself here BUT come on–look at that pout! 😀 I love Kristen’s ornate clustering, I wish I could cluster like that! Victoria’s layout has a beautiful vintage feel and the font is just spot on. And of course, I love that cute little girl in the last layout! 😉

So, it’s a brand new month and that means another chance to snag some really great rewards: one buffet item, two buffet items or a snazzy $5 store gift certificate! Everyone who plays along in our challenge wins something, so go start your tracking thread now in the March challenge points tracking thread! I think my goal this month will be two buffet items, but I know some ladies will be going for gold! 🙂

Okie doke gals, I’m off! Y’all have a fantastic week!

Yeah, somehow, it became March. I’m not sure how or why, but it did. Am I the only one who REALLY dislikes February for it’s shortness? It doesn’t need to be that way 😉

Anyways, onto what you’re really here for. The DAILY DOWNLOAD! Party over here on the blog!

Last month, Monica, of ViolaMoni had provided a SERIOUSLY cute kit!

I love the non-traditional love colors! I don’t know about you, but I crave chocolate every time I saw the preview. Excuse me while I run out and grab some chocolate real quick.

Okay, I’m back! Did you miss me? Okay, sorry, I’ll stop now.

This month, Pixelily Designs has lovingly created an adorable kit for y’all!

I see an ellie-phant! otherwise known as an “elephant”!

Remember, the links are only up for about 5 days. After that, they’re removed, so if you miss a download, you’ll have to wait until the next month to buy the kit!

Hope you enjoy!

Fresh Baked: March 01, 2013

Bye February! You never stay around long enough for us to even adjust to the fact that it’s a new month, and then you’re gone. Can you believe that we’re at March already? Sixteen days until green beer, gold coins, and when everyone becomes Irish. At least that’s how it feels. As the mom of a St. Patrick’s Day child, it’s a fun holiday for us to celebrate.

The colors surrounding March seems to always be rainbows, and this month’s buffet is no exception. It’s such a fun and happy buffet, as well. You’ll be saying “Lucky Me” when you scrap with it!

The designers really showed their playful sides with this buffet!

We went with a video, to help save on loading times. Let us know what you think! To disable the sound on this video just click the speaker symbol on the player.

The CT had a lot of fun finding pictures that fit the theme, and I think that they did a great job, as well!

I just love how wonderful all of their layouts turned out! To disable the sound on this video just click the speaker symbol on the player.

Since it’s a new month, it’s time for a BAKE SALE! I don’t know about you, but I just LOVE the bake sale! You never know what you’re going to find in there, but it’s always something that you just can’t live without!

Remember, that when you spend $10 in the store, you get an amazing grab bag created by one of our amazing designers. This month, Terra, of Sugar Kissed Designs created a wonderful one for y’all!

Today, I’m so excited to tell you that we have a new designer joining the team.

Tracy of Trixie Scraps Designs!

Tracy, aka Trixie of Trixie Scraps Designs, happily opens her shop with us today! She has over 10 years of experience as a scrapbooker, beginning first with paper and switching to digi in 2007. In October 2008, she opened her first store as a digital designer and has never looked back! Tracy just recently relocated to the Kansas City area with her husband Erick and their two dogs, Diamond and Lucy. She’s a devoted aunt to three nieces, one nephew (and one on the way) and she spends a lot of time with her cousin’s three little boys, as well. She loves popcorn-flavored Jelly Bellys, Mexican food, country music and reality TV. Trixie’s catalog is chuck full of stunning collections, complete with gorgeous paper patterns, versatile "paper scrap" style elements, and plenty of add-ons to help you complete beautiful pages quickly and easily. We are sure you will find lots to love in her new store here at Ginger Scraps!

Here are just a few of her designs that she has here at Gingerscraps:

So many great and amazing designs! I’m having troubles deciding what I’m going to get first! I’m sure you’re having the same problem!

It’s always a sad moment when a designer decides that it’s time for her to retire. Char, of Wyld Web Designs has made that decision. Before she leaves, she wanted to have one last hoorah, so take advantage of this great sale while you still can!

Char, we’ll miss you, and we wish you all of the best in your future endeavors!

Connie Prince wanted to make sure that I let y’all know about her sale!!

With that, I bid you adieu. Enjoy your weekend!
