Fresh Baked for July 27, 2012

The last week of July! Our fun stay-cation, mini-vacation is almost at an end. I’m excited to see what August brings, but wow, July flew right on through!

The designers were hard at work doing things for Christmas in July, but they still were able to put out things for today as well!!

There’s also a sale still going on! Winter and Christmas themed goodies! At rock-bottom prices!! You’ll never see the prices this low again!

Remember that when you spend $10 in the store, you get an amazing grab bag. This month’s was created by Ryan, of Roseytoes, and it’s JAM-PACKED full of stuff.

Sneak Peeks 7.26.12

Good morning everyone!

How’s everyone’s holiday? 😉 WHAT! You mean you didn’t know that it’s Christmas… in July! 😀 Well, it is, and we’re pulling out ALL the stops here at GingerScraps!  I feel like I’ve got a cookie hangover but I’m pretty sure I haven’t had any cookies. 😉

I’m here to share with you just a couple sneak peeks for Friday’s Fresh Baked. Don’t have too many since the designers have been busy as elves getting the Funky Christmas Buffet together for you, not to mention the incredibly awesome Facebook hop!  Alright, alright, before I go on and on about the Christmas in July event let’s get to the matter at hand: sneak peaks!

First up I have something by Twin Mom Scraps

I really do love the greys, greens and browns. That pallet is just so pretty. 

I’ve got one more from Joyful Heart Designs

If that sneak peek is hinting at all those amazing papers, COUNT ME IN!

I can’t wait to see what goodies appear in the store tomorrow. It’s one of the first things I do every Friday morning! I suppose if I said that to anyone else they’d look at me funny, but I’m sure you understand. 😉

Hope everyone has a terrific Thursday! Make sure you join us for the Holiday Festivities, there is SO much going on! I’ve seen SO many new faces too, which I LOVE! So many CAPS but I assure you, it’s because I’m just so… EXCITED! (and I can’t hide it 😉 )

Oh, I’m goofy, I know. Time for coffee, scrapping, and friends! Hope to see you in the forum!

Fresh Baked: Christmas in July

“You’re a mean one, Mr. Grinch.”
“Up on the rooftop, reindeer paw.”
“Walking through a winter wonderland".”

Songs of cold are more than welcome. The heat of summer is strong on us in the States. I complain about snow, but right now, I’d accept some of the cold, wet stuff.

The reasons the songs are stuck in my head has nothing to do with a desire for cold! GingerScraps is proud to announce the re-release of the December 2011 buffet, revamped! It was taken down as a precaution, and now it’s ready for release.


https://store.gingerscraps.net/Funky-Christmas

Our designers that weren’t part of the store back in December even created some amazing buffet pieces!

The signs of the season really inspired the CT! They went a little crazy with the layouts!

Ginger couldn’t leave it at that. No way! Nope! She got together with the designers to bring on an incredibly fun adventure called Christmas in July!!

There are Christmas/winter-themed challenges! I don’t know about you, but I’m always at least a year behind on scrapping those special Christmas memories. Now you’ll have a chance to get caught up!!

Look at all those SPEED SCRAPS! Seriously, I’m excited for all of this! Truth or Dare. Oh, that ends up being some hilariously funny stuff going on then. If you’ve seen some random Facebook status updates from designers and members of the forum, and they disappear at the end of the week, or something, that’s usually a Truth or Dare dare. They’re always fun, and humorous, guaranteed to leave you in stitches!


https://forums.gingerscraps.net/showthread.php?18157-Christmas-In-July-Special-Challenge-Rules-and-Points

There are special prizes to win for doing those challenges and speed scraps and chats! You can win a goodie bag full of coupons from the designers at Gingerscraps! Could you think of a better present to be found under the tree? You’ll find more information at the forum!!

Oh! Did you think I was finished? No, there’s a Facebook Hop!! The designers all worked together, even our Guest, WendyBird Designs!

Before I let you scamper off to see your presents that the designers have left, I wonder if you noticed a difference in some images. If so, it’s a sneak peek to a new look coming soon for Gingerscraps! It’s coming soon. For now, enjoy the crisp, fresh new preview images.

So, get your Christmas on, play in some fake snow, and HAVE SOME FUN! We’re SO excited for this!
