Fresh Baked: May 03

Good morning, Gingerscraps friends! How did you enjoy your first day of the iNSD party that’s going on? More information is available on the blog, if you missed it! I hope you still want to shop because the designers have some amazing things out again today! Kathy Winters has a continuation of her P52 Save the Date series. Angelclaud is continuing her Project 365 template series. Several designers have iNSD grab bags available, too. There are so many goodies that I couldn’t even attempt to choose a favorite.

I had the same issue trying to choose the layouts to show off. I chose two using the Spring Fling buffet series, and one using Signs of Spring, the monthly mix for May.


Beautiful layout by scrapjrlgcp. I love the layers, and the little cluster in the corner.


Wonderful layout by krystlbear. I love the story behind the picture. I love the clusters!


Adorable layout by MamaCake. I love the focus on the pictures, and the use of the elements to highlight them.

Fresh Baked: May 01, 2013

Good Morning! It’s May! Can you believe it? We’ve already finished a quarter of 2013! May is a great month! School is finishing, spring is (supposed to be) in full swing!

Speaking of spring, this month’s buffet is called Spring Fling. It’s full of fun bright colors that just say “I’m ready for a change of scenery”!

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

Remember, if you don’t want to hear the sound, just click the button next to the play button, and it will mute it for you.

Sneak Peek 4-25-13

Good morning everybody.  I hope this post is finding everyone healthy and happy.  It is really starting to feel like Spring here.  The trees are all turning green and all of my flowers are blooming.  It would be so nice outside if the pollen wasn’t so high:)

The designers at Gingerscraps are incredibly busy  getting ready for iNSD weekend .  It is such a fun weekend and the party starts May 2nd (Thursday) and lasts the ENTIRE weekend!! Join us at Gingerscraps for blog hops, challenges, chats, games and much more!  I can’t wait!!!!

I have one layout to share with you today and it is really cute.  I love the papers and the country feel of this kit by Snips and Snails Designs.  I can’t wait to play with this one.  I know I have several recipes that need new recipe cards and I’m thinking this kit will do the trick.

Well, I hope you have a wonderful rest of your week and I’ll see ya next week with some new goodies.  Thanks for stopping by:)

Good Morning Ladies!  I hope everyone is doing well and having a good week.  Things here have been busy, busy busy!  We have had several celebrations and made some wonderful family memories.  I can’t wait to get my pictures uploaded and start scrapping.

Here are two layouts that are beautiful.  The first one is from a new kit from Snips and Snails Designs that is being released on Friday.  I love the chalk board  paper and the elements really pop right off the page.  It is stunning work.

 

The next layout I would like to share is a kit from Pixelily Designs.  It looks like it is going to be perfect for a lot of different types of layouts.  I love the banner and  the word art is really fantastic.  Another super layout 🙂

I love the two different kits that are being released on Friday and I am sure there will be a ton more.  Make sure you check out the store on Friday and I hope everyone has a wonderful rest of the week.  Thanks for stopping by!

Fresh Baked: April 12, 2013

Good morning! This week is the week of the templates! Several of the designers have created templates. There’s even a Hybrid project thrown into the mix. There are some great spring-related kits as well. So much goodness this week!

Speaking of goodness, I picked out some, in my opinion, wonderful layouts this week. Again, two are of the Nature’s Delight buffet, and the third is using the April Monthly Mix, Fresh Air.


Created by mamaape, using the buffet. I love the use of the word arts, and the beautiful cluster work. It’s just such a beautiful layout.


Created by Scrapper, with Nature’s Delight. I love how the whole layout has an old-time feel to it, and matches so well to the pictures.


Created by chigirl, using Fresh Air. I love the use of the white space, and the graph paper strip to label where and when the pictures were taken. The pictures make me wish it was warmer!

And now, on to the amazingness that are the designers here at Gingerscraps!

Sneak Peeks!!!

Hi everybody!  I hope I find everyone happy and healthy.  It seems like Spring has sprung here in my little corner of paradise.  Although, with the beautiful days we have dreadful pollen.  On my 8 mile hike the other day I looked like I was a walking pollen pod:(  Thank goodness for allergy medicine. Well I have a ton of layouts that show off some gorgeous kits that will be available on Friday.  Here are your sneaky sneaks I know you will love them!

Snips and Snails Designs have some lovely kits coming.  They will be perfect for so many pages.  The elements are just perfect and I love the shades of all the papers. See what you think!

Well, did you notice all the flowers and butterflies, and frames.  These kits are chocked full of wonderful goodies!

I hope everyone has a super weekend and I’ll see ya next week.

I love when three people can take one template and each come up with something completely different! That’s definitely the mark of a good designer and talented scrappers–both of which we have in spades at GS! Make sure you click through and leave some love for each of these ladies’ desktops. 🙂

Remember that super sweet reward I mentioned earlier? Well, take a look at what you could get for playing along with our monthly challenges: one buffet item, two buffet items or a $5 store gift certificate–awesome! Just make sure you start keeping a running tally of your completed challenges in the April Challenge Tracking thread. If you have any questions about how this or any of our other monthly challenges work, stop by the Cookie Jar and ask away! 🙂

Okie doke ladies, that’s it for me this week. Start working on your challenges, have a great day and an awesome week! 🙂
