Fresh Baked: March 01, 2013

Bye February! You never stay around long enough for us to even adjust to the fact that it’s a new month, and then you’re gone. Can you believe that we’re at March already? Sixteen days until green beer, gold coins, and when everyone becomes Irish. At least that’s how it feels. As the mom of a St. Patrick’s Day child, it’s a fun holiday for us to celebrate.

The colors surrounding March seems to always be rainbows, and this month’s buffet is no exception. It’s such a fun and happy buffet, as well. You’ll be saying “Lucky Me” when you scrap with it!

The designers really showed their playful sides with this buffet!

We went with a video, to help save on loading times. Let us know what you think! To disable the sound on this video just click the speaker symbol on the player.

The CT had a lot of fun finding pictures that fit the theme, and I think that they did a great job, as well!

I just love how wonderful all of their layouts turned out! To disable the sound on this video just click the speaker symbol on the player.

Since it’s a new month, it’s time for a BAKE SALE! I don’t know about you, but I just LOVE the bake sale! You never know what you’re going to find in there, but it’s always something that you just can’t live without!

Remember, that when you spend $10 in the store, you get an amazing grab bag created by one of our amazing designers. This month, Terra, of Sugar Kissed Designs created a wonderful one for y’all!

Today, I’m so excited to tell you that we have a new designer joining the team.

Tracy of Trixie Scraps Designs!

Tracy, aka Trixie of Trixie Scraps Designs, happily opens her shop with us today! She has over 10 years of experience as a scrapbooker, beginning first with paper and switching to digi in 2007. In October 2008, she opened her first store as a digital designer and has never looked back! Tracy just recently relocated to the Kansas City area with her husband Erick and their two dogs, Diamond and Lucy. She’s a devoted aunt to three nieces, one nephew (and one on the way) and she spends a lot of time with her cousin’s three little boys, as well. She loves popcorn-flavored Jelly Bellys, Mexican food, country music and reality TV. Trixie’s catalog is chuck full of stunning collections, complete with gorgeous paper patterns, versatile "paper scrap" style elements, and plenty of add-ons to help you complete beautiful pages quickly and easily. We are sure you will find lots to love in her new store here at Ginger Scraps!

Here are just a few of her designs that she has here at Gingerscraps:

One of February’s guest designers has decided to stay with us another month! We’re happy to keep her! Aga of Jimbo Jambo Designs. Make sure you check out her store! She has some wonderful templates!

Wow! It’s time to reveal February’s Daily Download!

Last month, Monica, of ViolaMoni had provided a SERIOUSLY cute kit!

  https://store.gingerscraps.net/Loving-you.html

I love the non-traditional love colors! I don’t know about you, but I crave chocolate every time I saw the preview. Excuse me while I run out and grab some chocolate real quick.

Okay, I’m back! Did you miss me? Okay, sorry, I’ll stop now.

This month, Pixelily Designs has lovingly created an adorable kit for y’all!

  https://gingerscraps.net/gsblog/2013/03/daily-download-march-01/

I see an ellie-phant! otherwise known as an “elephant”!

Remember, the links are only up for about 5 days. After that, they’re removed, so if you miss a download, you’ll have to wait until the next month to buy the kit!

Oh, don’t think we’re done yet! It’s FRIDAY! That means even more fresh baked goodness!

So many great and amazing designs! I’m having troubles deciding what I’m going to get first! I’m sure you’re having the same problem!

It’s always a sad moment when a designer decides that it’s time for her to retire. Char, of Wyld Web Designs has made that decision. Before she leaves, she wanted to have one last hoorah, so take advantage of this great sale while you still can!

Char, we’ll miss you, and we wish you all of the best in your future endeavors!

Connie Prince wanted to make sure that I let y’all know about her sale!!

With that, I bid you adieu. Enjoy your weekend!

Fresh Baked: February 22, 2013

Good morning! We have had a lot of snow in this area. We haven’t seen this much snow since 2011. It’s sort of crazy how much snow we had. It makes me very thankful that we have a four-wheel-drive vehicle in which my husband can drive to work. The kids are enjoying the snow days, though.

This week, I only chose one Buffet layout to showcase because we have TWO Monthly Mixes releasing.


A hilarious layout by Juliemomof4. I love how not-serious it is. Fits the family perfectly 😉

Now, I mentioned TWO monthly mixes!! The first one is from December 2012. It was showcased but not officially released. Now it is!


https://store.gingerscraps.net/Monthly-Mix-Chill-In-The-Air.html


Created by trina513. I love this. The happy faces and the smiles just make me grin!

And this is THIS month’s! TWO! Awesome!


https://store.gingerscraps.net/Monthly-Mix-What-Makes-A-Family.html


Layout created by jenevang. I love the sepia photo treatment.

So, two monthly mixes. I know! I’ve said it a lot, but they’re both SO unique and different and fit for so many occasions!

Remember, that when you spend $10 in the store, you get an amazing grab bag created by one of our amazing designers.

Happy Day after Valentine’s. Anyone else gorge themselves way too much on chocolate? I know that I did. I think that’s the point of Valentine’s Day. Right? Oh well if it’s not. It’s how we celebrate it.

I am loving looking at the love-filled layouts with this month’s buffet, Listen to Your Heart. I picked from the Buffet Challenge gallery this week, and if you’re wanting an “easy” challenge to do, this is definitely one for you!


Created by our own Spotlight Challenge host, Ambelleina. I have to giggle at the pictures. I love layouts that talk about why they love their significant other!

Fresh Baked: February 08, 2013

Happy Friday, y’all! Today is hopefully going to be a good day for everyone! I’m expecting a nice package to arrive at my local Best Buy and I’m seriously excited for it! I won’t be all braggy but my husband is excited to be able to use the desktop again is all I’m going to say. I cannot wait to be able to FINALLY scrap in the bedroom, in the quiet, so I can laugh as loudly as I want during Friday’s Night Owls speed scraps!

Speaking of scrapping, I was checking out the gallery to showcase some layouts, and y’all really seem to be enjoying this buffet, Listen To Your Heart! I love seeing all of the layouts y’all create, and wow, you guys always make it so hard to choose which to showcase! Keep it up, though. I love sitting at the computer and looking!


This beautiful layout was created by justpennys. I love the use of white space and the string floating over the journaling. Just as traditional scrapbooking would end up with!


I love this layout by altimasport. I love the diamond crop to the pictures.


An adorable layout by mom2triplets04. I seriously just love the quote. The quote has me giggling so hard!

Remember, that when you spend $10 in the store, you get an amazing grab bag created by one of our amazing designers.

Fresh Baked: January 25, 2013

Goodness, it’s been getting cold, then a warm snap, and then BOOM, cold again here in Kansas. I’m shivering, it seems, all day. Thankfully, while not getting too hot, the computer adds a little bit of warmth. Too bad it’s not a laptop, or I’d have a nice built-in little heater.

At least the cold gives me a nice excuse to stay inside and scrap. I can scrap about my hope for the warmer temperatures, and my dreams for how I want to spend my Spring Break. Can you BELIEVE how fast January is going? We’re already at the LAST Fresh Baked newsletter for January. There’s some big news coming MONDAY, so keep an eye out for that, but next Friday will be February 01! :O I’m not so sure how I feel about this time going by so fast. I’m ready for a break from it. Who’s with me?

Well, nothing I can do about it for now. Instead, I’ll just spend my time ogling over the beautiful layouts that I’m finding in the gallery. I always have the hardest time choosing which ones to showcase. I love the struggle though! It makes it fun!! This week, I chose one layout using the Hopes and Dreams buffet and two using the new January Monthly Mix, Winter Romance. It’s such a beautiful and sweet kit! I can’t get enough of it personally!


This beautiful layout was created by scrapjrlgcp. I just love the naked baby bum. Such a sweet and happy little boy! That grin is just infectious!


Another layout by scrapjrlgcp. I swear I didn’t know it when I chose them. I didn’t even LOOK at the creators of the layouts. I just saw the GORGEOUS blend and I had to share it!


A layout from sladd79054. I chose this because I know that face. I’ve seen that face on my own son. The cluster work on this is just amazing. So beautifully done. I’m super jealous because I cannot cluster like that!

Before I get to the beautiful new goodies, I just want to remind you about the Retirement Sale happening at Gingerscraps.

Oh, and before you go, another awesome sale you should check out:


https://store.gingerscraps.net/Buy-My-Store.html

You’ve only got a few more days for this deal! Sale ends January 31st.

I think that’s it. I have to go do some planning for my Girl Scouts meeting. We missed a meeting because of the flu running through the whole school like mad, and I have to figure out how to combine two meetings into one without overwhelming the littles! They’re only Daisies. See you Monday for that important announcement and see you next Friday with a whole new round of new things!

Have a great weekend!

Fresh Baked: New Designer

Good morning! I hope that your Monday wasn’t too hectic. If it was, maybe this will bring a smile to your face!

Two  big things are happening at Gingerscraps. One is that we have a new designer joining the team! Theresa, of Simple Girl Scraps!

We asked, as always, for Theresa to tell us a little about herself, and this what she had to share:

Hi Everyone! My name is Theresa, aka Simple Girl Scraps. I’m a 28 year old Canadian and a creative enthusiast! I love all things creative and crafty! I started scrapbooking when I was in middle school and started digiscrapping nearly 5 years ago when I moved to Japan and had limited access to scrapbooking supplies! I started designing 2 and a half years ago with some encouragement from a friend and I love it!
Other things I love: vintage cameras, owls, cooking, thrifting, quilting, running, and weight lifting!

Oh wow. She’s lived in Japan. That’s so cool! I can’t wait to hear more about it!

Here are just a few of the items that she has in her store for you:


https://store.gingerscraps.net/Have-No-Fear.html


https://store.gingerscraps.net/My-Everyday-Life.html


https://store.gingerscraps.net/My-Story.html

Okay, I think I might all of them. Anything with a computer and a smartphone speaks to me, what can I say?

Well, I guess that’s it.
What? What do you mean I forgot something.

OH! That second thing I promised.

With each new year, it means a fresh start. In the digi world, that means a retirement.
No, wait, calm down. No designers are retiring, as far as I know.
It’s okay, that was my first reaction too.

No, Gingerscraps is having a HUGE retirement sale. For the products in the sale section, this is your last chance to get those kits and templates!

Okay, that’s it! Thank you for reading and just being a part of GS! We adore our members!

See you again on Friday!

Fresh Baked: December 14, 2012

Oh man, oh man! I am so excited! Christmas is just around the corner. Hanukkah is currently happening. There are so many wonderful things, holiday-wise, going on! I work with the Girl Scouts (I’m a Daisy leader, in fact), and this weekend, we’re making ornaments and going to nom on some delicious cake balls. I’m excited, even though they’re calling for rain instead of snow.

The lack of snow is made tolerable by the amazing layouts I’m seeing in the gallery though. I’m amazed, each week, as I go in, and try and pick out just a few layouts that I just adore. All of you, those who share your layouts with us, are amazing, and create just the most beautiful layouts! Thank you!


Created by Tree City. Oh I love the Bokeh! Seriously adore the bokeh. Jealous of it as well, 😀


Created by missdamsel. I love the snowflakes down the sides! It adds such a beautiful contrast to the layout.

Fresh Baked: Happy December

Can you believe it’s already December? Thirty-one more days, and we’ll be looking at 2013!

The winds are blowing in from the north, and the breath is visible in the air. There are white flakes falling from the sky. The winter season is upon us, and it’s time to prep for the snow.

Some areas have already had snow come to their areas, and I will be honest. I am completely jealous. I was born during a snowfall. Being a December baby, you tend to end up with that. Lately, we haven’t seen any snow. It makes me sad. Hopefully, we get some this year.

Why, you ask, am I going on about snow? It’s time for a new buffet!  This month’s theme is snow, snow, and more snow! Snowball Fight!

Snowball Fight is full of fun elements and papers, just perfect for all of those snow pictures. If you don’t have any snow pictures, pictures of the beach would work just fine, I think. Even something Christmas related would be perfect!

Fresh Baked for November 30, 2012

I am so thankful that we all survived this month together. Is it just me or did it fly by? Can you believe that tomorrow is December. Just a few more days left in 2012. I’m also thankful that it’s that time of year to share our Christmas stuff. I love Christmas lights.

I’ve been playing The Nutcracker music on repeat lately. It is one of my most favorite things of the holidays. I adore the ballet. I love the music. And I have an obsession with the figurines. Anyone else adore them?

Want to hear something else I adore? The layouts that have been made using the Attitude of Gratitude buffet by the awesome members of Gingerscraps, and the layouts that are coming from the Friendship Monthly Mix collab.


Created by scrapjrlgcp using Friendship. I love the use of the frame and the beautiful cluster work!
