Fresh Baked: May 17, 2013

Good morning! I hope you’re gearing up for summer because the Gingerscraps designers sure are! Almost every single design has a summer-themed kit this week. Katie Creates has a great kit for haircuts and hairstyles. I think that’s a kit almost all of us probably need! Twin Mom Scraps has one centered around getting well, and after the iNSD hangover, I think all of us are in need of some healthy thoughts 😉

Some of you amazing gallery artists definitely need to give me some tips on layout creating, because they are amazing. I had such a hard time choosing just three this week! I chose two using the Spring Fling buffet series, and one using Signs of Spring, the monthly mix for May.


Wonderful layout by zenjen. I love the story behind the picture. I’d love to know what joke was told for this particular picture!


Wonderful layout by mamaape. I love the blocking. So beautifully done. Clusters are amazing, as well.


Just beautiful layout by Ricki. The cluster work is wonderful, and I love the circular layers. And who can resist a cute baby?

Good morning! I hope you’ve recovered from your iNSD hangover, and that you love everything that you were able to pick up! If you missed the FWP, Scraptastic, is available for purchase. Angelclaud has a gorgeous template re-release, and it’s gorgeous. ViolaMoni has a set of masks that will add some fun stuff to your pictures, and a beautiful kit. Honestly, all of the designers have some great stuff, and I really struggle picking 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.


Lovely layout by melissavt. I just love the picture of the flowers. The flowers at the bottom “sprouting” up just make the layout so perfect!


Beautiful card by melissavt. I love the framing. It looks so realistic and pretty!


Beautiful calendar desktop by Colleen. I love the clusters and the layers. Always amazing!

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

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!

Fresh Baked: April 26, 2013

Good morning! Can you believe we’re almost to May? That means iNSD! More information on that is coming, but I can promise you that the designers are going nuts working on things for it. I can tell you that it all starts on Thursday, May 02, and will continue through-out the weekend.

This week, the designers also designed some wonderful goodies for y’all. Connie’s got her Project 2013 series continuing into May. Angelclaud has some beautiful templates. Snips and Snails, our guest, even has something that’s just cherry, I mean cheery!

Speaking of wonderful designs, I picked out some, in my opinion, wonderful layouts this week. Two of them are using Fresh Air, the April Monthly Mix, and the other was created using Nature’s Delight, the April Buffet.


Created by melissavt. I love the cluster work and the layers. So beautifully done!


Gorgeous layout by catgoddess.  I love the splatter of paint under the picture and paper layers. Just makes the flutterby stand out so much more.


Beautiful layout by emscraps. The clusters are amazing. It creates a beautiful scene!

Before you go and look at the amazing new designs, here are some WONDERFUL freebies created using Fresh Air!

Fresh Baked: April 19, 2013

Good morning! We’re over halfway through with April, and Spring and Spring-like colors are definitely the theme of the week. So many gorgeous kits by the designers. I can’t even begin to attempt to choose a favorite, but I’m sure you’ll find something that you’ll find perfect for yourself!

Speaking of wonderful designs, I picked out some, in my opinion, wonderful layouts this week. All three are using the Nature’s Delight buffet.


Beautiful layout by catgoddess. I love the clustering and the layers. The photo treatment is wonderful as well!


Wonderful hybrid by mamaape. I love hybrid projects and this one looks so realistic. I want to reach out and see if it’s just awesome shadows or really glued!


Adorable layout by Colleen. I love the circular pictures. The floating flowers just makes the layout so much  more fun and playful.

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

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!

Fresh Baked: April 05, 2013

Good morning! Are you ready for the weekend? I think a few of the designers are definitely ready for spring to start. Connie Prince’s grab bag is full of spring goodness. Snips and Snails, our guest this month, even has a kit with spring in the title. You can’t beat that. If you’re into templates, a few designers have some for you. Blue Heart Scraps even has journal cards template sets that are CU-friendly! And a few two-page template sets. This week truly has some great stuff.

This week’s layout stand-outs are using both the Nature’s Delight buffet and the new monthly mix, Fresh Air.


A wonderful layout by Lisa. I love the larger pictures, focusing on the images, and not on a lot of extras The clusters make the pictures stand out so much more!


Created by scrapjrlgcp. I just love the off-center strip. And it looks like the bird singing to the beautiful little girl!


This is another layout created by Lisa. This uses the Fresh Air monthly mix. I just LOVE the big picture, with the smaller picture framed and the elements all clustered around it. Such a beautiful job!

If you like the Fresh Air monthly mix, you’re going to love this! Here is a freebie created using pieces from the kit!
