flower frames!!

A while ago, I saw a kit and it had a flower frame in it. And I fell in love and decided to make a pack of flower frames.

available here
and this is my sample layout.

Baby Mine and Tree Hugger

I just wanted to show off 2 of my more recent layouts. This layout uses Tree Hugger, available at DRS.

and remember the kit is free with any purchase for the month of September. It's a win-win-win, right? You buy a kit, you get a kit, and the store sells something, so everyone wins.

And this one is a new lo using an older kit, Baby Mine by Key of D Designs. I love the song in Dumbo where the mama elephant is rocking the baby Dumbo (although I don't really care for the movie itself...) and I've always wanted to do a layout with the song. Well, I hadn't found any pictures and then I remembered this picture (previously scrapped) and just decided to rescrap it.

Unforgettable Moments by Amy Peck

My good friend Amy has opened up her store at Gingerscraps (.net) today. Like an hour ago. And she already has 3!! kits in the store. Here are some layouts I made using her new stuff.

Space Hero

Easy Going

Sweet Sentiments

And she's having a giveaway on her blog. Scroll to the bottom and you'll get the instructions there. Good luck!!

Welcome Kit

I couldn't wait to get my hands on the new welcome kit at DRS, so in my few minutes between when the little kids went to quiet time and the older kids got home from school, I used it to scrap this gorgeous beauty.

it's totally worth it to go in and register at the site.

Layouts I've been holding on to

This uses Sense of Adventure and More Than Curves

and these next ones are done in an effort to help my kids as they getting back into the routine of school...

New Month, new goodies

Well a new month means new of everything, so without further ado, here's the new stuff going on for the month of September at DRS...

This month, I'm hosting the Scrap Outside of the Box challenge. And this month, I want you to scrap outside of your album. I think so many times we focus on scrapping for our albums, that we don't think about some of the awesome things that we can do outside of the album, like wall art, cards, invites, flyers, etc. So for this challenge, I just want you to scrap something that is designed to NOT be in an album. This is one of the examples I made...

this is my daughter Lily, and I could totally see this hanging up in her room. In fact my 3 daughters all share a bedroom and I could envision having a matching set with a picture of each and a phrase. (Of course, we'd have to remodel the room first...)
Anyway, for participating, you receive this prize:

Also this month, we have a new mega welcome kit available. If you get the DRS Newsletter, all the info is in there on how to get it. In a nutshell, you need to join the community, introduce yourself, and make a few comments, and then email the administration with the subject line Welcome Kit. It is HUGE. I've never seen another welcome kit this size.





And, last but not least, is the September Collab. Don't forget that this beauty is FREE with any purchase from the store. Beautiful Tree Hugger...perfect for all of your nature layouts.
