Fresh Baked: February 06, 2015

February 6, 2015 by Sarah

Happy Friday! How was your week? Did you catch some good sales? The designers have been working hard on so many great kits and template series. There are a few that have me feeling a need to do some baking for delicious goodies, and a few that make me want to just enjoy some time with friends and family!

Before I show you any goodies, I have the privilege to show off some wonderful layouts using the new Buffet and this month’s Monthly Mix is called “Best Friend”

Created by msbrad. I love the large photos, especially with them hanging off the edge on two sides.

Fresh Baked: February 01, 2015

February 1, 2015 by Sarah

The month of love has hit us, and the designers are SO ready, I think! Though,

It is the First of the month, and that means the revel of our new Buffet!! Don’t forget the new Buffet items will all be 50% off (from the 1-5th of the month)!

The designers all had their own take on what the colors and theme said to them! I love the variety!

The designers knocked it out of the park. The designs are just amazing and so well done!

P52: Possible template Choices

January 28, 2015 by Sarah

I’m sorry I missed last week. I think I jinxed it when I wrote about the icks. I ended up not feeling 100% most of the week.

This week, I thought I’d show some template choices when doing the P52 challenge. I only chose one template series from a few designers, but there are plenty to choose from!

A great template series by Connie Prince. She has two different series of templates, but I’ll admit I get all “hot and bothered” over these. I love the stitches! I also love the mix of picture sizes and shapes!

A series by JB Studio that I like a lot. There’s plenty of room for pictures, even adding more if you need them, as well as lots of room for journaling, which is a big deal with P52 layouts.

AND!! I just found out that a second set will be available for sale on Friday! 😀 They come in letter and 12×12 sizes!

LissyKay Designs has a LOT of these. There’s a wide-variety, and they fit every season, major event, and the like! I love them!

I’ll be honest. Rachel (Pretty in Green) actually created these because I asked for them 😀 There’s a variety, though a few were lost (and will be replaced ASAP) during the server/store upgrade that happened a few months ago.

This series by Dagi’s Temp-Tations is perfect for the P365-type layouts!

Do you have a favorite template series to use? Or designer? Share with us!

I’m not ready for January to end but it looks like it’s going to soon! Wow.

The designers are getting ready, I think, for the month of love, but they’re also pulling out some great templates and kits for this week! I spy a few that I just might have to pick up myself!

Time to share some gorgeous layouts using the new Buffet and this month’s Monthly Mix, “Let’s Party”!

Created by trina513. Goats! It’s goats! How cute are they? I have to giggle at the matching goat elements.

Project 52: Example Layouts

January 21, 2015 by Sarah

And now we’re wrapping up Week 03, and I figured now would be a good time to show off some layouts that have been shared. I love how creative everyone is getting, and how each person is taking the challenge so personally, and making it working for them.

Created by Sarah. Yes, that would be me. I’m going more for the Project Life theme, and scrapping some of my favorite pictures. This is just one side. I take a lot of selfies, and since that’s just about the only way we get pictures of me, I figured I should scrap them. Sometimes I need photographic proof that I actually put on some make-up.

Halfway through January already! Seriously, time! Slow down!

The designers are having a lot of fun designing, I think. There’s a nice variety of templates and kits available this week! I spy a few that I might just have to get!

Time to share some gorgeous layouts using the new Buffet and this month’s Monthly Mix, “Let’s Party”!

Created by trina513. I love the title work, and the small clusters.

Project 52: Apps!

January 14, 2015 by Sarah

Okay, last week, we talked about inspiration. Today, I’m going over APPS!

Apps are a bit of a personal choice. The ones I use are more photography based, and the ones someone else uses might be more for journaling! It’s always personal.

As I mentioned last week, I’m more of an Android girl and know nothing about IOS, but here are some IOS apps suggested by another user:

Journaling
Momento- My very favorite app. I use it every day
Evernote
Photo editing/ filters/ social
Instagram
VSCO cam
PicTapGo
Adding text to photos
Collect
A Beautiful Mess
Word Swag
Scrapping/ photo collage
Project Life App
Shake
Diptic
PicFrame

Second week of January already started! Time in 2015 is really flying already!

This week, it looks like the designers are tired of the cold weather, and a lot of them have their winter kits on sale. Make sure you check them out!

Time to share some gorgeous layouts using the new Buffet and this month’s Monthly Mix, “Let’s Party”!

Created by emscraps. I love the cluster work. Always so wonderful!

Created by klgossia. I have to giggle at the picture and just stare in awe at the cluster. So cute and so wonderfully done.

Created by yabby. I love the way the title is done, with the frame breaking up the syllables!

Remember, when you spend $10 in the store, you get a great grab bag!

January 7, 2015 by Sarah

At Gingerscraps, you’re able to earn up to 4 (FOUR!) challenge points a month (full explanation available here in the Gingerscraps forum). If you have any questions relating to that, please ask there. Thank you!

This series, which will be posted each Wednesday, will focus on different aspects of the challenge. Today, for example, will be focus on some inspiration!

Fresh Baked: January 02, 2015

January 2, 2015 by Sarah

So, I think I just sent one of these? Right? Feels like yesterday!

Okay, all kidding aside, it’s January, the first official Fresh Baked and the designers are already knocking things out of the park. Templates and Project 52-related stuff. Even a chance to explore space! So much fun already in 2015!

Time to share some gorgeous layouts using the new Buffet and this month’s Monthly Mix, “Let’s Party”!

Created by Tinci. The clusters are amazing. I love the treatment to the photo as well!

Created by dodgeladee. Normally, a layout like this would look busy, but this is amazing. I love how descriptive it is without having a photo. It says so much without needing a picture!
