#69

Dawn of Daybreak Scraps has a fabulous new kit at Funky Playground Designs. It's called "Happy Go Lucky". I took the opportunity to scrap a beautiful time that occurred after dinner last night. I hope you enjoy it!

#68 and...#66?

Well, I guess I didn't post the actual layout for #66 which I actually really like. So here it is:



Tomorrow, C.W. Picket is coming out with a new, adorable doctor kit. It's called "Not the Doctor" and it's exclusively at Digi Scraps Drive In (DSDI). Here's the preview:


Get it here and the coordinating alphas here.

#66 and 67

As I said in the previous post, I have been very lax in my blogging. I don't know why, I just have. So I'm trying to catch up. This post is part of one that should have gone out a while ago and part that is supposed to go out tonight (yay!).

Misty created a little summer mini that reminds me of the ocean. I love the serenity of calming blues and teals, along with the gritty texture of sand between my toes.




This kit includes 6 papers and 15 elements. And it's only $3.00! If you're a subscriber to Misty's newsletter, you received a fun coordinating freebie :) If you're not a newsletter subscriber, sign up here so you won't miss the next freebie and exclusive news.


You'll also want to "Like" Misty on FB. She is known to giveaway coupons on a moment's notice to lucky fans who just happen to be in the right place at the right time.

Misty had a request to bring back the Mega CU Glitters and instead, she created a new set - 10 styles & sheets - which you can find in this neat little grab bag. All of the items in the grab bag are for commercial use and you'll find 4 handy dandy products at your designing disposal. There's glitter, layered paper templates, overlays, and some doodles. Want a sneak peek? Head over to the store and click "additional images" to see each product's preview.





The ($17 value!) Commercial Use Grab Bag No. 1 will be available for just $5 through July 5th. After that, everything will be unpacked and sold separately in the store.



Misty also spent some time perusing CT, Adriana's lovely layout gallery. (You may know her as dricamendes in the forums). Adriana has a beautiful gallery and we really admire her style as a digital layout artist. So much so, that Misty created a set of layout templates inspired by her own LOs! This set includes 4 layered templates so you too can create layouts similar to Adriana's style.



You can pick up this pack for only $3.99 in Misty's store at Funky Playground Designs!

Here's the layout I did with the fabuluous template!





#64 and 65

It's been too long since I blogged. We went to Nashville this past weekend for a 3 year old's birthday party. Whew that was a crazy event. I didn't have my own camera there so I don't have anything scrapped for that, but I did three layouts (see above post for #66!) recently. The first one is Daybreak Scraps' newest mini called "Daddy Rabbit". I loved the orange pallat and knew I had the perfect photo for it! Here's what I did:

I also participated in the Funky Playground Designs Challenge which yesterday was a Tag Lift. You lift the person before you. The person after you lifts you. I of course got some crazy talented designer and this is what I came up with:

I'm pretty pleased with it...Hubby says he doesn't like the racoon and girl, but I like them. Not my normal thing.

Here's another template and kit from Daybreak Scraps. I think I'm actually getting the hang of templates! They used to limit my imagination because I couldn't see past them. I feel like I'm starting to see them as a starting point now. Here's my latest:

#62 - School is out for summer!!!

Today was my last day of work for a while. So, I ran some errands, went to the gym, took a nap and then picked up the girl. I thought it would be fun to go to the park, so we went and played and had a great time. We went to the mall for dinner and found this adorable pair of sunglasses. Here's what happened when we got home.

With school winding down, I felt like I would do another challenge at Funky Playground Designs. This was a scraplift. The hubby had a great photo session with the girl the yesterday so I couldn't wait to use the photos. Here's what I came up with:
