Spotlight Challenge: Recipe
Have you ever taken part in the Recipe Challenge? It’s a lot of fun! Hosted by Sweet Pea Designs‘ Penny, the basic objective is to take the Ingredients List and create a layout. Sometimes, there are additional Directions – for example, “Place one of your photos in the top left quadrant of the layout” – that are required to meet the Challenge goals. Participants can add to the Recipe if they want to, but MUST follow the basic Ingredients List. Let’s take a closer look. Here’s the September Recipe.
There have been quite a few layouts posted for this Challenge. We’ll check them out and see how each GingerScrapper has met the requirements. Each layout is in the order it was uploaded and is linked to the Challenge Gallery so you can see them in greater detail and leave some praise, if you’re so inclined. Just click on the GingerScrapper‘s user name.
First up is Windswept. Her first-day-of-school layout has each of the required ingredients, and she’s added an extra journal card.
This layout from alexandergirl68 ticks all the boxes, and then some. I needed to take a good look to see the ‘bling’ – gold lettering on the large flair. Very subtle!
KatherineWoodin‘s layout seems to be missing the pocket card. Do you see one? I love the visual impact of her arrangement.
I had to look for the bling on jenazs‘ layout too; it’s a subtle glitter spray behind her clusters. The pocket card is the size of a postage stamp, so it’s there but not center-stage. That crocheted border though!!
I LOVE this one from ElkFan! The kit she chose coordinates perfectly with her photo. The glittery paint, the little fishes, the lacy border… just beautiful!
Jill‘s layout just jumps out of the Gallery. The bright colour palette against that dark background is stunning.
The beach photo that inspired khoskins‘ layout really pops and is beautifully supported by her tiny clusters. The very narrow white border around the photo was the right choice. Simple elegance.
Could this layout be any cuter? I’m not sure I see a flair, but kristal has all the other goodies in there.
Using a paint swatch as a pocket card, as basketladyaudrey has done, is genius! And her interpretation of bling, a pearl dangle, is also brilliant.
Lisa Campbell chose to pull colours from her photos, then supplement them with themed elements. Love the sparkly crown that suggests the Magic Kingdom.
Daydreamer understood the assignment. Such a cheerful, colourful layout is an attention-grabber. Glitter paper… YES!
The woodgrain and plaid papers and hinges play to all the fallen leaves in the background of robinoes66‘s photo. Is there a hidden pocket card somewhere?
And last but not least, curio has created a simple but eye-catching layout. I like how she’s used the offset purple frame to draw the eye to the focal point of her photo. And the paper lanterns are amazing!
Have you been playing along with the monthly Challenges? Which one is your favourite? Maybe we’ll feature it next month!
Happy Friday! We’re already halfway through September. How is the month going so fast?
Remember, if you spend $10 in the store, you get this great collab for free.
Let’s look at all the new goodies in the store this week.
And along with all the great new kits in the store this week, we also have the Bake Sale going on. Each of these great kits are just $1 each.
There is SO much going on this week. I guess I should start off with the biggest thing, right?
And you know Ginger when it comes to celebrations. She doesn’t do them small. So we’re having a HUGE party!!
Have you participated in one of the Scavenger hunts? They are so much fun and I always find kits I “need” while I’m looking for that crazy Gingerbread Man (he’s a little sneaky).
And our designers have some fun games going on in the Forum as well!
Don’t forget this great Free With Purchase kit you get with any $10 spent in the store!
On top of all that fun, we have some great kits and other special sales and new releases!

Neia Scraps and JB Studio
How can it be September already? This month we have a dazzling duo in the Designer Spotlight. Edneia, aka Neia Scraps and Dani, aka JB Studio have joined hands and talents for us and we’re not going to be disappointed! I had a chat with these amazing women and want to share what I’ve learned about them with all of you. Let’s go!
N: When I first discovered digital scrapbooking, I was pregnant with my youngest daughter. Today she is 11 years old. I love drawings and cute little things and I got completely involved with this world. I had time, a computer and a lot of willingness to learn at my disposal. I started making pages and courses and soon I was designing my own products.
N: I use a desktop computer, my most used programs are Photoshop CC and Illustrator CC. I still use a scanner, a graphics tablet and I have a Canon camera.
Woohoo it’s Friday!! Hope your week has been wonderful. Make sure you read all the way to the end today! There might be a little teaser for you.

We have a new designer at the store starting in September. Although the name is new, the designers are a couple of your favorites.
Bio: We are Dagi and Lisa. Dagi is a 41 year old designer living in Czech Republic with her husband, two boys and lots of pets, and you already know her for her amazing work as Dagilicious. Lisa is a 44 year old designer living in Brazil with her cat, and has already been around designing adorable stuff as Lisa Rosa Designs. We live so far from each other, yet we became really close and after several collabs we thought we really click and that our designs go very well together. We decided to go on a new journey together and we are both very excited about it. Fun Factory is our whole new adventure and we can’t wait to see where it takes us…
