Sneak Peeks!!!

October 25, 2012 by GingerScraps

Hey everybody!!! I don’t know about the weather where you are, but the weather here has been BEAUTIFUL!!! The leaves are so vibrant in all my favorite colors and the temperature has been a tad bit warmer than normal. I’m not complaining at all though I love this time of year. I can’t believe it’s almost the end of October. I know around my house we are getting ready for Halloween and the election. Here are this weeks sneak peeks for some of the upcoming kits.

I love the black pumpkins in this kit and the googly eyes. I can’t wait to see the whole kit from Kathy Winters Designs it’s perfect for all our spooky pictures.

I really love the way this template flows it is also from Angelclaud Artroom. ( the kit and word art is from Connie Prince and Inspired Designs which can be found in the store already)

Neverland Scraps is getting us ready for the upcoming Presidential election. A lot of people are ready for Election Day to get here and this kit looks like a great way to document all the action at the polls.

Challenge Spotlight – Word Art Challenge

October 16, 2012 by GingerScraps

Good morning, y’all! How’s your week starting off? Mine is SO BUSY. I’ve got a whole mess of school stuff due this week–it’s scarier than Halloween! I may be busy, but I’m never too busy to blog about our fabulous monthly challenges here at GingerScraps! 🙂 This week I am spotlighting another challenge with a freebie: the word art challenge hosted by Laetitia of Kawouette Designs! Let’s take a look at the wonderful WA she’s got for us this month…

LOVE. IT. What else can I say? I adore fonts, especially handwritten ones, and this WA pack is just loaded with pretty ones! I like the faded/grungy effects, too. So many word arts, so generous; thank you, Laetitia! 🙂

Of course, with a WA pack like this, the forum ladies have been churning out some awesome layouts. Here are a few for inspiration!

If you’ll notice, I cleverly picked picked three layouts with different WA quotes to show off the range of WAs Laetitia has for us to create with this month. Aren’t I just so smart? 😉 You all did excellent jobs of using the word arts; they all add some extra meaning to your already-lovely pages. 🙂

So, it’s the middle of the month and if you haven’t started your tally in the October Challenge Points Tracking thread…do it! 🙂 You’ve got a couple more weeks to get some challenges done, uploaded and tallied so you can snag a fabulous reward! If you have any questions, direct them to the Cookie Jar.

That’s it for me for this week: now back to my regularly schedule papers and quizzes and exams and blah… Have a wonderful week! 😉

Really beautiful pages, ladies. You all showed off the fun patterned papers so well! Love the flower clusters on all three layouts, as well. This is simply a wonderful little mini; thank you for your generosity, Jennifer!

Now, yes the mini is cuteness defined, but that little freebie isn’t all we’ve got for you! If you complete the mini challenge, post your creation (layout, hybrid–whatever you can dream up!) in the gallery and keep track, you can earn a really great reward depending on how many challenges you complete: one buffet item of your choosing, two buffet items of your choosing or the grand prize (cue the drum roll)…a $5 store gift certificate you can spend on any kit you want! PRETTY sweet deal, if you ask me! Just start your tally in the October Challenge Points Tracking thread and at the end of the month, we’ll tally your challenges up and send you a prize: woot! ^_^ If you haven’t joined us for our monthly challenges before…well, there’s no time like the present! 🙂

That’s it for this week, all. Make sure you’re getting your challenges done and posted in the gallery so we can ooh and ahh and leave your some love! Have a fantastic week; see y’all next Tuesday! 😀

Weekly Wrap-up: What’s your favorite challenge?

October 7, 2012 by GingerScraps

Good afternoon my friends!

I know generally I sit down and spend the morning with you, but this morning the family and I had quite a bit of running around to do. We had a great morning and now I’m here to babble to you about this and that.

I know, you’re excited.

You should always have an air of excitement around you- it keeps things interesting.

The first week of October, come and gone. Can you believe that Christmas…Christmas… is only 79 days away. SEVENTY-NINE DAYS! Crazy. I have so many projects to start, finish, print for the holidays that I’m already behind. I need something to organize all my crazy to do, and I couldn’t help but eye up the new Hybrid Plan it! Charts from Connie Prince (JenE Creations).

The more I sit here looking at it, I just know it’s going in my cart the minute I finish writing. I love that not only is there a schedule, but chore chart, work out chart AND A CREATIVE TEAM CHART! How fun is that?!

Well, now that you’ve seen the new buffet and our new challenges what do you think?

I am in super love with our October Buffet: Fall Festival. It is ridiculous, and by ridiculous I mean that in an absolutely good way.

I am really into the challenges this month too. There are some fun new twists- like the mix-it-up challenge hosted by Crystal of Inspired Designs. I’ve been wanting to do a strictly black and white page, and now I’ve got double the motivation to get started. I really like simple hybrid challenges (since I’m totally not a Hybrid chick- you ladies that do Hybrid regularly are incredible), something that is 1, 2, 3 and done, so I’m really excited about this month’s Hybrid challenge hosted by JenC Designs.
