Colder Weather

Posted on January 6, 2016 by Jennifer

January’s Scraps N Pieces Store Collab is all about colder weather. Colder Weather is full of the grays and blues of winter, plus reds and green. It has an awesome mix of elements: fun cold weather themed elements plus a generous assortment of generic elements, making this kit perfect for all kinds of layouts. There is a quick page pack available or you can buy the kit and the quick pages together in a bundle. Previews are linked.

Snow isn’t something I see a lot in central Texas, so I wasn’t sure initially what I wanted to scrap with Colder Weather. Then I saw the tree elements and I knew. I scrapped some photos from a recent overnight trip to San Antonio to visit Sea World and the Botanical Garden. Our trip was after Christmas, but Sea World was still decorated for the holidays and I knew this kit would be perfect. Not overtly Christmas-themed, yet perfect for the decorations. And that coral color worked great with the picture of the flamingos.

Journaling reads: We decided to make a quick overnight trip to San Antonio to have some family fun. In August, we had extended the girls’ free preschool summer passes to Sea World through the end of the year at a cost of $15 each, so we didn’t want that to go to waste. We drove to San Antonio and ate lunch at Sea Island Shrimp House before heading to Sea World. The ticketing area was decorated with a trio of beautiful blue trees. Jessica has become quite a photo diva and will pose for me. She even asks me to take her photo at times. Janette requires a bit more coaxing.

A Winter Wonderland and Template Pack 11

Posted on January 1, 2016 by Jennifer

Welcome to a new year at Scraps N Pieces. Heidi and Lori are so grateful for this past year and all of their wonderful customers. They have so many fun things planned for this next year and they are starting it off with their contribution to January Bits N Pieces – A Woodland Winter.

With a light dusting of snow on the ground, everywhere becomes a winter wonderland. A Woodland Winter celebrates the cheerful yet muted tones of the world after a fresh snowfall and draws upon delightful winter imagery, turning every single layout into a snowy spectacular. Featured elements include snowmen, owls, birds (with stocking caps), ornaments, and snowflakes galore. The muted pastel tones add a pop of color to winter, keeping spirits bright until springtime. Celebrate the snowy joy outside your door with A Woodland Winter.

The pieces this month are a stitched alpha, a paper pack, a cardstock pack, and an element pack. In addition, Heidi and Lori are releasing Template Pack 11. These items are just $1 through the 7th of January and are exclusive to their Scraps N Pieces store right now.

I don’t really get a winter wonderland in my area of the country, but this kit is versatile. I have two non-snowy layouts. These are from our Christmas celebration with my side of the family this year.
