Another New Face Around SDD

This has been an exciting month for me as a CT member has I have gotten to discover several of our newer designers at SDD.  This month I have the pleasure of working with Dawn of Daybreak Scraps.  Her kits are super cute!  Today I would like to shaer with you What I Love About You.  What a fun kit!!  I just love the colors!!  Check it out!

Getting to Know A New Designer

So back in June we had the pleasure of having Simple Girl Scraps s a guest designer at SDD. Unfortunately I did not have an opportunity to work with her.  But I am so excited to share that she is now exclusively selling at SDD and I got an opportunity to work with one of her kits this month (hopefully I will have some more fun kits to share with you this month too).  I got to snag her kit, Wild Child, and boy was it fun to play with.  The colors and elements are so bright and playful and the wordarts are perfect!  Plus this month she is hosting the Bird Cage Challenge so you can pick up a mini kit add on for this kit absolutly free!  Check it Out!

I LOVE Grab Bags

I just love grab bags.  Even when they are revealed I always feel like a little kid as I unwrap (or unzipp) them and discover all of the goodies inside!  This week I got to to unwrap Partners in Crime's Personal Use Grab Bag 4!  This grab bag is packed full of some fun and exciting things.  First off there are three mini kits and each one is a must have in my book.  The first one I have played with is Backyard BBQ.  I will be using this kit again and again with all of my summer photos of my two guys grilling.  Check back soon as I share my layouts with the other great kits you can get in this grab bag!

Summer Recreation

I am back with another kit by our Guest Designer, Cornelia Designs.  This week I got to play with one of her collabs!  I just love this kit and how perfect it is for all of yoru summer photos.  There are so many cute elements in this kit that you can create layout after layout from your summer pics!  Check it out!

A New Guest Designer

Good Morning Everyone!!  I have the great pleasure to work with this months Guest Designer at SDD, Cornelia Designs.  She has some fabulous items in her store that you will be sure to see some more posts this month featuring her products!!  Today though she released an exclusive template pack, her Calendar 2013 Templates, into the store and I had a chance to get to work with them.  Throughout the year in 2011 I worked on creating my 2012 calendar and each month I look forward to flipping to the next page and remembering the photos from the previous year that I had featured.  It is such a wonderful way to preserve your memories.  Well I hadn't had a chance to start working on my 2013 calendar yet and I had so much fun digging right into her templates and now have several months all ready to go!  Her templates make it super easy and I just love all of the blocking she used in them!

A Fun New Collab

This month I have the pleasure of working with 3 Li'l Monsters Designs at Scrappity-Doo-Dah.  I always enjoy working with Amy's kits and this month I got an extra bonus, I get to work with her collab with our guest designer Simple Girl Scraps.  This is the first time that I have worked with Simple Girl Scraps and after playing with their collab, Funky Fresh, I am eager to check out some more of her kits.  Both ladies have really stuffed this kit to the max with some fun and funky papers and elements!  Check it Out!



And of course a layout by me...

A Wonderful Collab Grab Bag

Over NSD Weekend I had the pleasure of working with Mandy King & Mye De Leon's latest Collab Grab Bag, Lazy Afternoon.  I loved how diverse this kit was. There are so many different ways to use this kit with it fabulous color pallete and beautiful elements.

A New Designer & A New Freebie

Good Afternoon Everyone!  I hope that everyone has had a wonderful weekend.  I had the weekend off and enjoyed a trip to the zoo with the little man yesterday and then have spent the rest of the weekend catching up on things after a very busy week.  This month I have the pleasure of working with another one of our new designers at Scrappity-Doo-Dah, nandesign.  The first kit of his that I got to play with was Making Comics.  I must admit, it is a little different then the usual kits that I grab but was excited for the challenge.  Well I enjoyed the challenge far more then I could have expected.  His doodles are amazing and it makes the kit so much fun to play with.  I will be using this kit again for sure.  The first thing I made with this kit was a new Facebook Timeline Cover.  And guess what that means?  Yep, you guessed it, I have a new template for all of you.

So first off, lets take a look at Making Comics by nandesigns!  Check out those doodles!!
