scrap update!

November 24th, 2010

 

Hey everyone!

It’s been busy on the scrapbook front the past weeks. Every one of my designers was very productive, with International Scrapbooking Day a couple of weeks ago and Black Friday coming up in two days (!) they have released a lot of new kits, and so I was scrapping all the time to keep up! :) So here’s a catch up with some of my favorite pages! I won’t be posting previews of the kits this time because there are too many, but I’ll link you up!

At Matrioshki Scrapstore Sunny Scrap has released a gorgeous new Bathroom kit: ‘Bathroom Fun’

This page got picked as a gallery standout! yay!

For their Scraplift Challenge I made this page with ‘Yeah’ by Rakusia Designs:

Kotozebra has released this FABULOUS kit ‘Bedtime Stories

This was also a gallery standout!

KandI’s new release ‘Heavenly Life‘ is just as stunning as her first one!
My page with it, featuring my handsome young man ;)

Another standout according to Dst :)

Another new designer at Matrioshki, is WendyP Designs. She has the most amazing templates!
Here’s a page where I used a template from her Simple Staps 2. the kit is Silence by Rakusia.

And last but not least fat Marioshki is another new one by Sunny Scrap: Christmas Time


Jenn Barrette has been rereleasing some of her older kits at SSD and she has also made some fabulous new ones.
With her kit Pieces of You, I scrapped the following page. It made it to the GSO blog!

 

She has also released ‘Cup of Joy

This page made it to the Gallery Standouts at DST.

And ‘Take Note‘ a collab with Kristin Cronin-Barrow

And ‘A chance of Flurries‘ by Jenn Barrette and Mandabean

This page made it to the gallery standouts at DST.

Jenn is also a guest designer at Zig Zag Scrap this month, where she released this gorgeous kit ‘A Shabby Kind of Love‘.

My page with it, on a very sensitive subject ot me, also got picked at the GSO blog! :)

Her latest release was ‘Counting down to Christmas
 

My page with my cute little Santa :)

This one also made it to the Gallery Standouts at DST.

Next up we have Christy Lyle who debuted this month with her own personal store.
 

With her kit ‘The Haunted‘, I made the following page.

And I used her kit Sugar Pie and her paper pack ‘Krafty Dotty’ to make this page:

Next up is Misty Mareda! She’s been rocking 3 fabulous new kits!
Her first was a collab with Micheline Martin: Little daredevil. I love it!
My page, which also made it to the GSO blog:

The second one is ‘Missing You‘. Another stunner.

The third one, my ABSOLUTE favorite, is part of the Daily Digi this month. 5 kits for $5, can’t go wrong with that. This kit is worth alone that much!

For Dani Mogstad I have made these two pages with Pumpkin Spiced Latte.

This last one was picked as Layout of The Week at the Sweet Shoppe Blog and I won a $7 GC to the store with it!! :)

 

With her kit ‘A lot Like Christmas‘ I scrapped this one:

Dani Alencar has a new collab with Rita Massela ‘Wiggle and giggle

 

And a new solo kit ‘She’s All That’

 

Then there’s one last page I’d like to share with you. It’s not a Ct page, but it’s just one of my favorite ones. I used a template by Cindy Schneider and the kit ‘All Star’ by Kristin Cronin-Barrow. Kristin chose my page as one of her week’s favorites and rewarded me with a $5 coupon to her store with it! I always love me some KCB!! :)

 

That’s it ! See you later!

Misty Mareda released a FABULOUS new kit! It’s a fall kit, but not in the traditional way. I just LOVE the colors and patterns in it. And look at that adorable scarecrow!!

Here is my page with it:


 

I’m thrilled that this page made it to the Gallery Standouts at DST! :)

And at Matrioshki Scrap Store, there’s a new designer. She’s called ‘KandI designs" and she has definitely made a fabulous debut with a gorgeous, outstanding kit!!

Secret Attic:

You wouldn’t believe how huge this kit is: 19 papers and 135 elements!

This is my page with it:

And I normally don’t do this, but I stumbled across a lot of gorgeous pages with this kit in the galleries, and this one just stands out so much! It’s one of the prettiest pages I have seen in a while, so I wanted to post it on my blog. It’s made by shadelia. You shoudl see her gallery, it’s full of beautiful pages! The image is linked, so if you have some time, please leave her a comment!

And then I have some exciting news!! I got accepted on the Creative Team of Jennifer Barrette! Woohoow!
I’m so excited because I really adore her products and scrapping with them is just… devine :)
Here are two pages I already made for her:

This one got picked as a standout on the Gallery Standouts Blog!

And this one is a sneak peek of a gorgeous kit she will re-release tomorrow:


 

As you can see, I’m really enjoying my scrapping time! :)

Don’t forget: only 8 more days to pick up my store deal at Oscraps! After that my designs will be gone!

Can’t stop scrapping

Hello! If you’re here for the blog train, please go to the previous post! Don’t forget to post a simple thank if you download my freebie :)

 

Well… Since I decided to retire from designing, I have done nothing else than scrapping. And some more scrapping. I am having such a BLAST, it’s exactly the same addictive behaviour I had when I first started scrapping 5 years ago! :) And I’m loving it!!! :) The fact that I don’t have to squeeze in a page between house work and designing, that there’s no pressure or time limit, has  made me more creative again. I don’t NEED my templates anymore (yet I still love to use one now and then) because now I have the time to come up with creative ideas of my own. Oooh, I’m really enjoying it! :)

I am very honored to be scrapping for some amazing designers. I make pages for Misty Mareda at Mscraps, Dani Alencar aka Just Because Studio at Digiscrappers Brasil and Matrioshki Scrap store where there are some seriously talented designers as well. Today I want to show you some of the pages I’ve made in the past couple of weeks! Ready? :)
For credits, please visit my gallery at DST!

(the above one made it to http://www.gallerystandouts.com !)

And then two more double pages for my baby’s first year album. It’s nearly finished now, yay!!

Well, that’s it for now! I’ll come back later this week with some new ones :)
And for those of you that don’t know yet: my retirement sale is still running, only two more weeks now!
This is your last chance to grab my entire store for only $20! Don’t miss it!
