Wave Patrol

Posted on July 6, 2017 by Jennifer

Surf’s up dude! WAVE PATROL by Magical Scraps Galore is a bright and colorful summer collection inspired by the California beaches, combining all the surfing fun with awesome seaside elements. Packed with tons of themed patterns and elements such as longboards, surfboards, wakeboards, water skis and paddles, this collection also includes general seaside ellies for you to use on any beach layout, such as a lifeguard tower, a palm tree, waves, seashells, a retro van, a lifesaver and beach signs, among many other awesome goodies.

Find the full collection at 58% off -or the individual page kit and four add-ons at 30% off– through Tuesday midnight in Marina’s shops at GingerScraps and The Digichick.

I am not a surfer girl, but I knew as soon as I saw Marina’s new kit, that I would be scrapping some more of our 2008 trip to Tahiti. The colors are perfect for the ocean. Both of these two layouts are from the Bora Bora leg of our trip.

Ohana

Posted on July 2, 2017 by Jennifer

Ohana means ‘family’ and you’ll certainly feel like part of the community with this tropical kit from Scraps N Pieces. Bright, bold artwork conjures up images of an island paradise, perfect for scrapping tropical vacations (or dreams of tropical vacations). Bright colors and wood feature heavily in this kit, with traditional wood carvings and a wooden alpha featured alongside hippie surfer vans, surfboards, and coconut drinks. Traditional hula dancers, floral shirts, tiki torches, and palm trees add more tropical touches. Two big packs of papers, patterned and solid, provide a great background for your featured photos. Whether you’re traveling to Hawaii, hosting a luau in your backyard, or just watching Lilo & Stitch for the hundredth time, you can scrap your story with Ohana.

The individual pieces and template pack are on sale for $1 through the 7th of July. The full kit is on sale for $3 through the 7th as well. Kit is exclusively at Gingerscraps this month and will be at Scraps N Pieces and My Memories next month.

No automatic alt text available.

Of course, I wanted to scrap some photos from our Tahitian vacation. Scrapping it has brought back some really fun memories. These two layouts document dinner at Bloody Mary’s, a Bora Bora institution since 1979.

South Pacific Holiday

Posted on February 26, 2015 by Jennifer

No matter the weather, our minds always wander to a tropical destination. Whether you are simply dreaming of a tropical vacation or are scrapping your gorgeous photos, South Pacific Holiday has you covered. This kit’s bright, tropical color palette lends a punch to your scrapbook pages and it’s elements capture the best parts of a relaxing holiday: butterflies and drinks with umbrellas, sea turtles and tropical fish, lush flowers and hula dancers, even the warm sunlight. South Pacific Holiday also includes a full alpha and set of destination tags.

You can get this latest kit from designer Scraps N Pieces at both the Scraps N Pieces store and the My Memories store for 1/2 price this week. This kit was a special request from our CT member Jennifer. Isn’t that cool that Lori and Heidi made a kit that had the color scheme and elements I was looking for to scrap our Tahitian vacation?

Amy’s Scrappin Memories also has a coordinating word art pack on sale this week in the store at Scraps N Pieces.

I have threee layouts to share today. Although I’m sure I will have many more. The first two contain pics from Mo’orea. The third, which I shared last week also, are pics from Bora Bora.

Sheri’s Freebie

Lindsay’s Freebie

Beth’s Freebie

Beth is new to the Scraps N Pieces CT – here is a little bit about her.

My name is Beth Hoffman and I live in the Portland, OR area. I’ve been a SAHM for about 25 years and an empty nester for the past few years. I’ve been married to my best friend for 30 years and have two grown sons; 24 & 27. Before having kids I worked in the corporate environment in Human Resources and have volunteered over the years for various charity organizations. I love spending time with my nose buried in a good book, taking long walks and hanging out with family and friends. I started paper scrapping about 15 years ago and started ‘collecting’ digital scrapbook freebies a few years later. After several frustrating attempts to learn Photoshop Elements, I took digital classes from Scraps-N-Pieces in 2013 and have been creating digital layouts ever since.

If you are newsletter subscriber, you probably got this freebie in our Wednesday newsletter. If not, be sure to sign up for our newsletter up above and get that freebie along with about 50 others.

One more new product this week. Every year we have a special request to make calendar QPs, so this is our set for this year. It is pulled from other sets in the store with the months added. This is great for those working on P12, or for title pages for P52 and P365.
