Challenge Spotlight – Mini Kit Challenge

I can’t believe it’s already September–that is just plain insanity! It was just spring…now it’s fall?! Well, it’s sort of fall. It was over 100 here in Texas yesterday so, let’s call it “fall.” 🙂 I spent the long hot holiday weekend inside gets all kinds of scrapping done! I’m gunning for the big prize at the end of this month and I’m already halfway there! Let’s catch you up to speed with this week’s challenge spotlight; I’m talking about Crystal of Inspired Designs’ mini kit challenge! I just love the colors of this min, rich and pretty for fall and so many ellies, can hardly believe this is a freebie! Enough chattering, let’s take a look at what she’s got for us this month!

Absolutely beautiful, Crystal!  What’s even more beautiful are the amazing layouts the ladies of the forum have already been busy at work creating! Seriously, it’s just the 3rd of September and these are already flooding in! I guess everyone’s excited about working with such a cute kit. 🙂 Let’s peek at their pages for some inspiration!

Amazing work, as usual! Do I ever expect anything less from all the talent we’ve got pouring out at GingerScraps? Of course not! 😉 I adore April’s journaling and title work, Judy’s use of “patterned white space,” and Poki’s ribbon-y paper strips! All fabulous, gals, I love them!

Now it’s your turn to join in on the fun! The mini kit challenge runs from now until the end of the month, so jump in, grab your freebie mini and scrap us up something pretty to see in the gallery! You’ve got a shot at some awesome prizes–you even get a prize just for doing one challenge! (Just because GingerScraps loves you like that. 😉 )All you have to do is post them to the gallery and keep track of your completed challenges in the September Challenge Points Tracking thread.

That’s it for me this week, I’ve got some schoolwork to do (and some regular work, too!) so I’m off! Hope y’all have a wonderful week and get some scrapping in where you can. See everyone next week! 🙂

This Week’s Sneak Peeks

Hello Digi Friends!

This summer has simply flown by, hasn’t it! It is hard to believe Labor Day Weekend is just days away and that school is back in session across our nation. Soon, the weather will turn crisper in many parts of the States. I love Fall, so I am looking forward to crisper temperatures, the changing colors of the leaves, and fun fall projects to do with my kids! I have started my school year, though the kids come after labor day, and I am feeling sorta sad as I say good bye to summer days and summer nights, toes in the sand, taking our time to do things, doing things on a whim. Back to reality! Back to work (at a school for me!) and into a new routine as my daughter starts kindergarten next week and the kids start classes at the Y (swim and gymnastics). Change is good, but change can be hard!

One thing that never changes is the sneak peeks! I know I can count on the awesome designers at Gingerscraps to give us lots of goodies to ogle every week, stuff to drool over until their release on Fridays! These little snippets have me wanting more more more!!!! Let’s see what’s coming!

From Wyld Web Designs….

I am loving the layout here! What a nice way to get alot of pictures on one page! Makes for a nice double page spread, too!

How ZooRific is this! Love the tiger stripe paper and the way the photos look like they are in notebooks! Clever!

The placement of the photos here in this pretty LO is so eyecatching! Love these colors and those cute little ballerinas!!

A new alpha from Blue  Heart Scraps that is coming our way… Love the color scheme here, the layout of the pictures, the elements and frames, and that cute alpha.

A new template from Neverland Scraps and kit from Pixelily…

I love the notebook paper here and these pretty, soft colors! Could that be pom pom ribbon in here, too!? Shazam!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE that!!!

(I get crazy about rick rack, ribbons, trim, pom poms, eyelet lace, and stuff like that!)

From Sugar Kissed Designs…what a pretty layout! I really like this color palette here! So funky, modern, and cool (and another new template from Neverland Scraps)!

From Pixelily Designs ….check out this angled striped paper! Love these colors together! Citrus-y delicious, funky and fantastically fun!

 

All righty now! I am getting excited about shopping the Gingerscraps Store for all this scrumptiousness and these goodies that will no doubt make my scrapping fun!

So come on, pull up a mouse, grab a cup of ‘Joe, and let’s wait together in the Gingerscraps Forum until the awesomeness arrives!

Scrap On, Digi Friends, Scrap on, and enjoy the last moments of summer!

This Week’s Sneak Peeks

Good Morning, Digi Friends!

Well, now, it has only been 4 months now that I have been blogging about the wonderfulness of Gingerscraps and the Sneak Peeks of the Week here in the happiest place on earth, and I just figured out how to insert the header into this page!  OHHHH my. Really. Oh my. 

Well THANK GOSH it has not taken me 4 months to figure out that Gingerscraps Designers are the best of the best, and the most fabulous and kind hearted people in digi land! That’s for sure!!  Yay!!! Kudos and a standing O for the GS designers! (insert applause here if you know how, LOL).

On another note, I hang my head in shame…I did not get my hybrids done this week. I am bummed. We were in need of a new car, and had to shop for one pretty much daily. If I was not online searching, I was out looking and test driving SUVs. We finally brought home a 2005 black Honda Pilot this week. So the “search is over” (yes, sing it with me you Chicago fans!!!!) and I can get back to shopping for back to school supplies for my school counseling office and making my hybrids for my office. FINALLY!  Hopefully I will be able to get some done this weekend to show you all how I use my most loved Gingerscraps supplies!

Speaking of which….there will be more in the store this week! Oh, how I love Fridays! Guess what’s coming this week? Well, take a look!!!! Whoo hoo!!! These designers rock my socks every time!!!

Are you ready? Fasten your seat belts, cuz here we go!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  We’ve got tons of fabulousness for you!

Something from Blue Heart Scraps and something from Joyful Heart Designs….

Something pretty from Pretty In Green…

Something sweet from Rosey Toes Designs…

Something  whitty from Kathy Winters Designs….

Somthing scrumptious from Sugar Kissed Designs…

Something I am now craving from Pixel Lily…

Something happy from Keep In Touch Designs…

Something soothing from Joyful Heart Designs….

And here is MORE coming your way….

From Inspired Designs… LOVE this owl!!!

 

Well, digi friends, if that wasn’t a Sneak Peek-a-looza I don’t know what is! I am soooooo excited for Friday when we get to see what comes out of the kitchen at Gingerscraps. I better get a bigger hard drive for all the goodies that will be popping into my cart this weekend. Shazam!!!! This is going to be a fantabulously fun weekend of scrapping!!!! So pull up a mouse, and join me in the Gingerscraps forum while we wait until Friday!

Scrap on,

 

 

 

 

 

 

Challenge Spotlight – Daily Download Challenge

Hello ladies and happy Tuesday! How’s your week going? I’m still in vacation mode, a week later! The week already seems so long and we’re only two days into it–ugh! All I want to do is sit in the AC and scrap all my vacation photos. Luckily, I can do that while racking up points towards some awesome rewards with the monthly challenges! 🙂 Today, I am spotlighting a challenge I just finished this week: the daily download challenge hosted by JoyLynn of Blue Heart Scraps!

Last month’s daily download kit was the gorgeous Chill kit by Sugar Kissed Designs. It’s proven to be super popular as I’ve seen so many awesome layouts made with this kit in the gallery! If you didn’t snag the kit when it was last month’s daily download, you can buy it in the store today! Take a look at the beautiful palette:

I love the teal and light blue paired with the pretty green here. It’s soft, but bright and colorful. Definitely one to add to your stash for some awesome spring and summer layouts! I am just loving this kit and the wonderful works of art the forum ladies are making with it. Here’s some inspiration for you!

Awesome LOs, ladies! Especially that last one! hehe (Just kidding!) This kit is seriously pretty and by making a layout with it, you can start earning points towards a free buffet item of your choosing OR a store gift certificate for those of us who can never have too many kits from the GingerScraps shop! 😉

Now it’s time to start scrapping up your points! Make sure you’re tallying them up in the August Challenge Points Tracking thread. The more points you get, the more rewards you get at the end of the month! I’m personally going for that $5 store gift certificate because my name is Christina and I’m a digihoarder. 😉 If you have any questions about this or any of the other monthly challenges, you can drop them off in the Cookie Jar and we’ll get back to you asap!

See y’all next week with another challenge spotlight! Have a great week! 🙂
