Scrap N’Art Freebie Digi Kit
Hey there to all my digi scrapbooking friends! I was honored to be asked to create a mini-kit for the Scrap N'Art subscribers this month. If you subscribe to the premium content, you can download this from their site. I hope you will go check them out, lots of inspiration, product reviews coupons, and of course, digital freebies!
And here's a layout I created using the kit. I'm really loving layered papers right now, so this was fun playing with the different colors.
And I just realized I haven't even mentioned this little trip to the beach, here on my blog. Ah well. It was overcast but we got sunburned anyway. The journaling on the layout tells you everything you need to know. It was a great trip and I'm glad to have it documented!
Letting Go
I've got one more project and article to complete for an upcoming issue for Scrap N' Art, and then I'm letting it go. I've had a fabulous time on the magazine team, learned a lot about how that process works, how the scrapbooking industry works, and about people. I must say, as awesome as it is to get a fabulous box of product every few months, sit down and play, and then see my projects in print, I like it better when its just a hobby. Its important for everyone to know that Candy Rosenberg, the owner of Scrap N' Art is FABULOUS. And I mean that with all my heart. She's got enough energy, patience, creativity, and drive for ten gals and I am thrilled I got to work with her and her team for the past year. Kudos to the SNA design team and staff. I will miss you. MWAH.
Journal #4,672
And she's only ten. My daughter appears to have an obsession with journals. I have no idea where she gets that. Here's the latest one, created courtesy of Scrap N' Art. Its obnoxiously bright. And cheerful. And funky. And she liked it. And it was fun to make.
Here's a peek at one of the inside pages.

Oh heavens, wait until you see this previous princess. Last December, we went to visit family and friends in southern California. We stayed with a friend of ours (hi Greg!) and spent some time with his family, including his niece, who we will call Princess L. Anyone who reads my blog knows my kid's name is Isabella, but throwing out other kids' names on my blog, well that's just not nice without permission. So anyhoo. Here is Princess L.

I think she will like them.
OMG. Another Paper Layout
This can't be happening. Can it? Yes, it can. Although I have informed Scrap N' Art that this is not my thing, they just keep pushing it. LOL, its so worth it when they push me out of my little box. So yes, I made another paper layout. Again, with Pink Paislee products. And honestly, that's a good thing. I loved playing with these papers.
This was fun because I made a digital overlay for my photo before printing it and that became my primary title. For my secondary title, I used my Dyno Label maker on a strip of cardstock. I ran it through and then sanded it to make the white core of the paper stand out.
Fun stuff people.
