This Week’s Sneak Peeks

Good Morning, Scrappers!

I hope you were able to enjoy some, if not all, of iNSD weekend here at Gingerscraps! What a blast we had chatting with each other, doing scavenger hunts, guessing which designer went with which baby picture, posting in the gallery, and even playing truth or dare! There were numerous speed scraps, chats, and tons of fun give aways in the forum too! Oh my gosh! I have never had so much fun on my computer in my life! The Gingerbread Ladies really did a great job at cooking up loads of awesome fun for everyone!

And…they’re still busy cookin’ up stuff for us! Gee whiz, Ladies! You’re all so amazing and wonderful! Let’s see what’s cookin’ this week…

From Keep In Touch we have this beautiful kit. I love making vintage-y  looking layouts, and this is going to be perfect!

 

Stop on by the Gingerscraps Store on Friday, May 11, 2012, to see more of what our way awesome super fantabulous designers have created for us!

I am soooo excited to see more of what’s been cookin, how about you!?

 

Pull up a mouse, and a cup o joe, and join me in waiting for Friday’s new additions! I am super excited! These designers are super cool, and I want everything they create here at Gingerscraps!!!

Happy rest of the week to you!!!

Challenge Spotlight – Template Challenge #1

Have you recovered from NSD yet?? Has your pocketbook? I didn’t go as crazy shopping as some of my fellow scrappers did (you know who you are!), but I did buy a bunch of kits I’ve had my eye on for a while and I’m ready to put them to good use! Here’s a way to get scrapping with all those treasures you picked up over the weekend and add another freebie to your stash: the first May template challenge hosted by Inspired Designs!

This month’s first template is really cool; take a look!

I really love the mix of square and circle photograph shapes with the mini clusters. This template will definitely make for some eye-catching LOs! Need some inspiration from the fabulous scrappers of the forum? Here you go!

Wonderful pages, ladies! You’ve all made the template your own and these LOs are definitely inspiring my creativity!

You’ve got all month to get this one in to count towards your challenge points, but it’s such a nifty template, I’d grab it now if I were you! (As a matter of fact, I should go finish my LO with this one right now!)

Don’t forget to grab a spot May Challenge Points Tracking thread so you can tally up all your points and start working your way towards a discount coupon or gift certificate! Any questions on this or any of the monthly challenges can  be posted to the Cookie Jar; don’t be shy, someone else might have the same question! 🙂

Alright ladies, I’m off to start going through my NSD spoils and get some challenges done!  Have a wonderful week and I’ll see you all back here next Tuesday!

See! You still have a chance to take part in some! Maybe we’ll see each other!

Would you like to see some of the prizes you can earn over the weekend…

Check the forum for all the details- https://forums.gingerscraps.net/forumdisplay.php?678-National-Scrapbooking-Day!!-Let-s-Celebrate!!

I seriously want both the template package and the kit. I wants it now 😀 😉 Come on, admit it, you do too!! <3

Did you take advantage of the bake sale too? So many designers had some amazing stuff in there! I know Psychozoe Designs had all of her buffet items listed for $1!

An new buffet was also released: A Match Made in Heaven! It’s so cute and adorable. Perfect for the mother in your life, or even the baby/pet that you adore! I even caught a layout using a bus in similar colors! So many ways to use it!

You know what, though? If I had to choose a favorite kit  of what’s come out this week, I so couldn’t do it. Just could not do it at all! I just know that while that 50% sale is going on, you should really check it all out! Remember, if you spend $10, you get this awesome grab bag by Pretty in Green for free!!

Well, I think that’s about it. I’m off. I’m actually camping with my daughter this weekend, and I know the perfect kit that I’ll be using for that! Connie Prince has this kit called Scouting is Fun. I prefer the bundle, because it has both Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts. I have a Brownie, who will be bridging to a Junior next weekend; I have a Tiger Cub who’ll be a Wolf soon, as well. So, this kit is perfect. Another good choice, I think, is The Power of YOUth collab between Pretty in Green and Kathy Winters. It’s more 4H, but it would work for Girl Scouts at least. Same principles basically.

Okay, that’s enough from me! I’d love to hear from you what kits are your favorite!!
