Hello and happy May! Is everyone still recovering from iNSD? It’s finals for me so I didn’t get to do a whole heck of a lot of scrapping, but I hit up some chats, got to know some rad ladies (some might have gotten to know me more than they wanted!) and bought awesome new scrappy stuff! If you picked up this month’s buffet pieces while they were on sale, you’re all prepared for this week’s challenge spotlight: the buffet challenge hosted by Rachel of Pretty in Green! If you haven’t seen this month’s buffet yet…what are you waiting for?! Hop over to the store and check it out…
Spring has pretty much sprung at this point (except for that random cold front last week!) and it’s about that time to have pictures of pretty flowers blooming, the kiddos running around in the grass and just being out in the fun! This buffet is perfect for all your fun spring photos.
Just a week into May, the forum ladies are already flooding the gallery with gorgeous layouts using this month’s buffet. The color palette is rather unique and perfect for any occasion Need some scrapping inspiration? Check out these layouts…

Loving these layouts already! The grey in this buffet is a lovely neutral and goes so well with the bright reddish orange and muted yellow and green. These three pages all have a great energy and capture the colors of this buffet so beautifully! Wonderful layouts, ladies. 🙂
We’re already a week into May (what?!) so if you haven’t staked your spot out in the May Challenge Tracking Thread, you might want to mosey on over and do that! 😉 There are some cool rewards to be had if you play along with our challenges and tally up your points at the end of the month!
Ok, I’m off to get some studying in for finals this week. If anyone else is in the thick of finals–the best of luck to you! 🙂 Everyone else have a wonderful week and I’ll see y’all back here next Tuesday for another challenge spotlight!

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.
