I’m a Journalist II

Posted on April 29, 2013 by Jennifer

There are some people who are really good at journaling. They pour out their hearts and let both the good and bad shine in picture-less layouts. I am not that kind of person. I aspire to be. I even made it a goal to write in a journal every day at the beginning of the year. I stopped at the end of January.

Queen Wild Scraps has some journaling templates that can inspire the worst of the journalists to be the best journalist they can be. However, you can also use these templates with large photos. A number of the creative team did that.

Super Saturday 4/27 at Scraps N Pieces

Posted on April 27, 2013 by Jennifer

My absolute favorite movie is Pirates of the Caribbean. Johnny Depp is fantastic in his role as Captain Jack Sparrow and Orlando Bloom is certainly easy on the eyes. Pirates of the Caribbean is the one ride I had to ride at Magic Kingdom when I went in January since it inspired the movie.

Today’s Super Saturday deals will be perfect to scrap the ride or your favorite little pirate. It’s also great to scrap pics from the beach or maybe make a treasure map for a game with your kids.

Shiver Me Timbers can be picked up for $2.

And you can get the coordinating worn paper for $1.

True North Scraps Super Saturday Sales Plus a Freebie

Posted on April 26, 2013 by Jennifer

True North Scraps have a couple of kits that are going into Scraps N Pieces Super Saturday Sales.

The first one is Small World for $3.00. Small World is anything but small! Sure the elements are themed about small items like ladybugs, garden gnomes, and cute little mice, but there are almost 50 of them! The 15 papers are so carefully detailed that you will think they are real! You also get a full alpha of upper, lower and numbers!

Next is Whisper for $3.00, such a great price for this kit. Soft and delicate. Vintage. Those are words I’d use to describe this kit. If you like the romantic look, have some photos of the kids dressed up in their Easter finest, or know a sweet newborn baby, you need this kit. Outdoor wedding season is coming up. This kit would be perfect for something like that! This kit is amazingly versatile and makes for some stunning pages. The 49 beautiful elements will accommodate many situations that you will want to scrap about and 16 papers!

Plus Whisper Alpha is on sale for $1.00 today. This alpha has a delicate, rustic, elegant look. It’s all upper case letters to make your LO titles stand out. Perfectly coordinated with Whisper kit but I’m sure you be able to use it with most kits, so versatile.

Here are a few layouts created by the True North Stars with these kits.

A Muster of Memories

Posted on April 26, 2013 by Jennifer

Amy’s Designs has a gorgeous new kit out today. It is full of blues and purples and turquoise. The kit is generic enough for any type of photos, but it has a number of peacock related elements and others that give a grandma’s attic vibe. It is a rather large kit with 15 cardstock, 30 patterned papers, and 125 elements plus a fun alpha.

The layout I have to share today is of my sister-in-law. She is a hard person to shop for and this year for Christmas I’ve decided we’re giving her a scrapbook album with layouts. I think I’m safe to say this on my blog, because she is not an internet surfer, at least not that I think. This will be one of the ones included. The photo required some editing and then I decided the background bugged me with the rest of the layout (I decided to edit the photo after I had almost finished the layout), so I improved the photo, copied it, cut Tami out of the top one and turned the bottom one sepia. I like how it turned out.

I’m in love with the latest part of the yearly series by Queen Wild Scraps. The colors are so fun. And isn’t that alpha adorable!

You can pick it for 30% off until next week.

Cindy has a signature and two fun layouts. The first layout uses Fabulous February Templates and I think it is so neat she did a picture-less layout. The second layout uses Going in Circles Templates.

Kandice has two layouts. I love the composition of the first one. The colors in the kit were perfect for the Ronald McDonald photos in the second layout.

Kendra’s shirt in her layout is a perfect match to the kit colors.

The Queen herself, Lahni, has two layouts to share. I love the photo spanning the page in the first layout. Aren’t her kids adorable?

Loni has some gorgeous border clustering in her first layout. Aren’t the turtles in the second layout too cute? And the photo of them tucked behind the paper is so fun.
