Today is October 1st, and (apart from being my grandmother’s birthday! 😉 ) this means a new daily download is starting at ScrapMatters, and let me tell you this: you do NOT want to miss this!!!!!!!
Head over to the daily download section of the forum every day, and you’ll gather up a gorgeous, gorgeous kit!! Links for each day are up for 24 hours only, so make sure you get each day’s download!
Mari Koegelenberg has a new product in her store today, a 4×6 Recipe Box Template:
And it’s 20% off today only!!
This is such a versatile product! You can choose the papers you like best and use the box as a recipe box, or as an address box, or for whatever you need!
I really love bunnies and I had lots of fun scrapping this page:
This is the first page I do repeating the whole cluster over and over.. it’s a trend I’ve been seeing for some time in the galleries and wanted to try it myself. I quite like it for this page!
Here’s the page I promised I would post yesterday, but didn’t have time to. I love how it turned out! I made it for an Everyday Magic challenge at ScrapMatters, about our collections.
It’s only Tuesday, but I’m way behind with everything already!!! This is certainly one of those days I wished I didn’t have to work and could scrap all day! 😉 (wait, are there any other kind of days?? :-P)
It’s a rainy day here, so a sale is just what I need to brighten up! And Mari’s store has just that: a $2 sale on 5 products, with savings up to 67%!! Check it out here!
And here’s one of my favorite kits of Mari of all time, for sale for just 2 bucks today!
Don’t you just love $2 Tuesdays? 😉
Wow, it’s hard to believe, but yet another weekend has flown by super fast.. This was a quiet but very nice weekend. It was also quite productive from the scrapping point of view – not quantitatively (I scrapped a mere 3 pages), but surely qualitatively, since this page that I did for the scraplift challenge at the DigiChick earnt me another gallery standout! 😉
OK, seriously, I talked DH into going to this air show 2 months ago (well he was all for it of course, since he loves planes, but I brought it up!!) because I had this gorgeous mini hit by Elise’s Pieces Designs, and I finally had some time to scrap with it! It’s really beautiful!
I also did this page last night:
The third page I did was for a challenge that’s about to go live at ScrapMatters, so I’ll post it later. 😉
Amy Sumrall has teamed up with Valorie Wibbens (the latest addition at the LilyPad!) to create a cheesy, super fun kit, Mac n Cheese:
It’s really a versatile kit and I found it so romantic!! Here’s the page I was inspired to scrap (finally putting some of the hundreds of food pics I shoot to good use! 😉 ):
I have quite a busy day ahead, but I’m really glad it’s Friday!! The weekend is near and I cannot wait to go out and shoot some pictures for my photography class. 🙂
Last night DH and I went to see a Cirque du Soleil show and it was phenomenal!!!!!! Too bad that no pictures are allowed, but I still want to scrap 1 or 2 pages to record the experience. I’ll have to do some searching for what elements to use!
As you may know if you’re a regular reader of this blog, a little over a month ago DH and I celebrated out 10th dating anniversary. For the occasion, I worked on a little hybrid project and I can finally share it here, now that it’s posted as a tutorial on the ScrapMatters blog too! 😉
10 years is quite a long time, and I thought it would be neat to create a mini album with a page for each year we spent together. I tried to get a picture taken in summer, around our anniversary date, but I have to tell you, some years it was hard to find a picture of the two of us together at all! Luckily, this will never happen again, because since I started scrapbooking I’ve always made sure to take plenty of pictures of us. 😉
Anyway, here’s my little album: it’s tiny and it turned out very pretty! 😀
I kept the pages very simple: most of the space is taken up by our picture, plus I added a date stamp that bears the year and the anniversary number.
It’s $2 Tuesday and Mari Koegelenberg has SEVEN products for sale! Wanna see 2 of my favorites ever? OK, here we go! 😉
I just love this kit, Happiness. The bright colors always make me so happy!
And there’s another kit of Mari’s I really love, the sweetest kit ever, Hooty Toot:
Make sure you check out all of Mari’s $2 products here!
Amy has 2 new very pretty kits in the shop, one for girls:
and one for boys:
I played with both (obviously doing neither girlish nor boyish LOs – these kits are so versatile!), and here’s a page from our picnic on the lake, on Saturday, using the boy kit:
I also made a birthday card for my grandmother using the girl kit:
with some hearts on the inside:
You can also pick up the kits as a bundle and save some $$$!
