GingerBread Girl Inspiration | CindyB

GS_blog_GingerBreadGirlsInspiration_Header

 

Happy Scrappy Saturday everyone!! I am stopping by this morning to help get those creative juices flowing for you. Nothing beats Saturday scrapping, right?! This morning I am bringing you a look into one of the GingerBread Girl’s gallery. GingerScraps has a talented group of ladies taking those lovely designs and turning them into beautiful digital scrapbooking layouts. Today we are going to showcase CindyB’s gallery.

Cindy

Let’s get started. I found so much inspiration looking through Cindy’s gallery. As a scrapper who cannot scrap a page with clusters, I first noticed her great clustering! Then my eyes were drawn to her beautiful use of paper. She doesn’t shy away from the patterns and knows just how to use them. Every page has a great photo and she really rocks the blended photo. Here are 5 examples that grabbed my attention.

Great inspiration, right? Make sure to look around the gallery yourself if you need a little bit of help getting that mojo going. Not only are there great creative team member’s layouts, your fellow scrappers are rocking the scrappy goodness too! Don’t forget to upload your layouts in the gallery as well.

Have a great weekend everyone!

Let’s Celebrate | St. Patrick’s Day

Good Monday morning scrappers! Tomorrow is St. Patrick’s Day. With that comes scrapping fun holiday photos. Let us take a look at what GingerScraps has in store to get those holiday layouts scrapped. You can break down the store by holidays. *Shop by: HOLIDAY. I chose the St. Patrick’s Day section and look at these goodies I found!

Lucky you, Lucky Me by Seatrout Scraps

 

A Little Irish Lucky by Clever Monkey Graphics

 

Feelin’ Lucky – Kit by Aprilisa Designs

So, make sure you are wearing green, don’t get pinched, and take some fun photos. These are just a handful of selections you can choose from to scrap those holiday pages. I saw a few St. Patrick’s Day goodies in the Bake Sale too! Happy Scrapping!!

Creative Style | Pocket Scrapbooking

GS_blog_CreativeStyle_Header

 

Hello scrappers! Are you having a good weekend? It is super busy over at my house. No time for scrapping for me. Sigh. That isn’t what we are here to talk about though. I am here to talk about scrapbooking styles. You know: fantasy, pocket, traditional, and everything in between. Some people scrap only one style. Some people (like myself) can scrap one style one day and another a next. I like to mix things up.

One thing I’ve really not scrapped is those great pocket pages. I love to cluster a bit too much. Those pages are lovely though! So neat, clean, and brought together. The perfect touch of ellies and patterned paper. Some of these layouts have photos and such tucked in actual pockets. Those are great! Others are just wonderfully blocked layouts. These layouts jump out of the galleries! So, that is what I did. I stalked the gallery and am here to show of some of those great pocket scrapbook pages that are filling the GingerScraps gallery.

03_17_14-Green

03_17_14-Green by FarrahJobling might not be what you think of when you think, “pocket scrapbooking”. Except….she has that ADORABLE photo and journal card tucked in actual little pockets. Like I mentioned earlier. The use of patterned paper and that little hat element really grabbed my attention. Perfect kit and photo match!

Every Morning by Mandy King

Mojo by hclappy is what I think of when I think pocket scrapbooking. Those different size blocks but all put together beautifully. Great journaling blocks and just the touch of right elements. Of course…DONUTS! How can that not grab your attention?! Yum!

sisters_pocket_page_fb

sisters by weaselwatchr is a magnificent example of use of paper. Some people shy away from patterned paper. There is not one solid paper on here! It is done so beautifully.

Rainy Day by MommyScrapper proves that those pocket layouts don’t have to be straight lines! I LOVE the angle of this layout. Takes the everyday pocket layout and tilts it just a bit.

 

There you go. Just a little peek at some of the pocket pages that are filling up GingerScraps layout. They are super popular right now. Take a look around the galleries, grab some inspiration, and get to scrapping!

GingerBread Girls Inspiration

GS_blog_GingerBreadGirlsInspiration_Header

Good Monday morning scrappers!! Let us not dwell on the fact that it is Moday….sigh. Let us get scrap happy!! This Monday morning we are going to highlight a GingerBread girl. For those who are not familiar with the titles around GingerScraps, a GingerBread Girl is a creative team member. Those ladies who work hard to bring all those kits you love to action. Today, we are going to pull a bit of inspiration from

Jennifer

Check out her full gallery HERE.

I was stalking the galleries and Jennifer’s jumped out to me. Such great use of patterned papers, banners, and lovely photos. Don’t take my word for it though.

I told you that her gallery has some amazing inspiration! These are just a drop in the water. Go check out her GALLERY and look around. If you find yourself scraplifting and finding something that speaks to you in inspiration, let us know! Come back and link up your layout. We would love to see it. Happy Scrapping!

This Week’s Sneak Peeks

Hello Digi Friends!

This summer has simply flown by, hasn’t it! It is hard to believe Labor Day Weekend is just days away and that school is back in session across our nation. Soon, the weather will turn crisper in many parts of the States. I love Fall, so I am looking forward to crisper temperatures, the changing colors of the leaves, and fun fall projects to do with my kids! I have started my school year, though the kids come after labor day, and I am feeling sorta sad as I say good bye to summer days and summer nights, toes in the sand, taking our time to do things, doing things on a whim. Back to reality! Back to work (at a school for me!) and into a new routine as my daughter starts kindergarten next week and the kids start classes at the Y (swim and gymnastics). Change is good, but change can be hard!

One thing that never changes is the sneak peeks! I know I can count on the awesome designers at Gingerscraps to give us lots of goodies to ogle every week, stuff to drool over until their release on Fridays! These little snippets have me wanting more more more!!!! Let’s see what’s coming!

From Wyld Web Designs….

I am loving the layout here! What a nice way to get alot of pictures on one page! Makes for a nice double page spread, too!

How ZooRific is this! Love the tiger stripe paper and the way the photos look like they are in notebooks! Clever!

The placement of the photos here in this pretty LO is so eyecatching! Love these colors and those cute little ballerinas!!

A new alpha from Blue  Heart Scraps that is coming our way… Love the color scheme here, the layout of the pictures, the elements and frames, and that cute alpha.

A new template from Neverland Scraps and kit from Pixelily…

I love the notebook paper here and these pretty, soft colors! Could that be pom pom ribbon in here, too!? Shazam!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE that!!!

(I get crazy about rick rack, ribbons, trim, pom poms, eyelet lace, and stuff like that!)

From Sugar Kissed Designs…what a pretty layout! I really like this color palette here! So funky, modern, and cool (and another new template from Neverland Scraps)!

From Pixelily Designs ….check out this angled striped paper! Love these colors together! Citrus-y delicious, funky and fantastically fun!

 

All righty now! I am getting excited about shopping the Gingerscraps Store for all this scrumptiousness and these goodies that will no doubt make my scrapping fun!

So come on, pull up a mouse, grab a cup of ‘Joe, and let’s wait together in the Gingerscraps Forum until the awesomeness arrives!

Scrap On, Digi Friends, Scrap on, and enjoy the last moments of summer!

This Week’s Sneak Peeks

Good Morning, Digi Friends!

Well, now, it has only been 4 months now that I have been blogging about the wonderfulness of Gingerscraps and the Sneak Peeks of the Week here in the happiest place on earth, and I just figured out how to insert the header into this page!  OHHHH my. Really. Oh my. 

Well THANK GOSH it has not taken me 4 months to figure out that Gingerscraps Designers are the best of the best, and the most fabulous and kind hearted people in digi land! That’s for sure!!  Yay!!! Kudos and a standing O for the GS designers! (insert applause here if you know how, LOL).

On another note, I hang my head in shame…I did not get my hybrids done this week. I am bummed. We were in need of a new car, and had to shop for one pretty much daily. If I was not online searching, I was out looking and test driving SUVs. We finally brought home a 2005 black Honda Pilot this week. So the “search is over” (yes, sing it with me you Chicago fans!!!!) and I can get back to shopping for back to school supplies for my school counseling office and making my hybrids for my office. FINALLY!  Hopefully I will be able to get some done this weekend to show you all how I use my most loved Gingerscraps supplies!

Speaking of which….there will be more in the store this week! Oh, how I love Fridays! Guess what’s coming this week? Well, take a look!!!! Whoo hoo!!! These designers rock my socks every time!!!

Are you ready? Fasten your seat belts, cuz here we go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  We’ve got tons of fabulousness for you!

Something from Blue Heart Scraps and something from Joyful Heart Designs….

Something pretty from Pretty In Green…

Something sweet from Rosey Toes Designs…

Something  whitty from Kathy Winters Designs….

Somthing scrumptious from Sugar Kissed Designs…

Something I am now craving from Pixel Lily…

Something happy from Keep In Touch Designs…

Something soothing from Joyful Heart Designs….

And here is MORE coming your way….

From Inspired Designs… LOVE this owl!!!

 

Well, digi friends, if that wasn’t a Sneak Peek-a-looza I don’t know what is! I am soooooo excited for Friday when we get to see what comes out of the kitchen at Gingerscraps. I better get a bigger hard drive for all the goodies that will be popping into my cart this weekend. Shazam!!!! This is going to be a fantabulously fun weekend of scrapping!!!! So pull up a mouse, and join me in the Gingerscraps forum while we wait until Friday!

Scrap on,
