The Good Life

Posted on January 16, 2014 by Jennifer

Queen Wild Scraps has a new release today perfect for those of you jumping on the P52/265 or Project Life bandwagons. The Good Life is also perfect if you love the blocked look. You can pick up The Good Life on sale 50% off through January 23rd.

Here’s my layout using one of The Good Life templates. I’m jumping on that P52 bandwagon. I’m hoping to be more successful than I have the past two years when I tried to do it.

Sassy and Classy

Posted on January 14, 2014 by Jennifer

It’s Gotta Grab It time at Gotta Pixel. I love this month’s color swatch. Word Art World has five pieces for $1 each through January 17th. Sassy and Classy is definitely a girly kit, but I think it works great for heritage pages also.

When I first saw the kit previews, I noticed the typewriter and thought that it would be perfect for a photo of my Grandma hard at work. Journaling is adapted from a personal history my Aunt Karen wrote up before Alzheimer’s stole my Grandma’s memories. Journaling reads: In 1947 at age 17, HIlda obtained an apprenticeship at Kraftanlage A.G. with the help of her Uncle Rudi, who worked there as a designer. A civil enginnering firm, Kraftanlage A.G. designed underground heating. The training at the business school lasted about a year and then she became a secretary. She worked there until 1954. One of her co-workers, Ellen Stadler, set her up on a blind date November 21, 1951, which led to her future husband. Ellen’s sister, Martha Stadler, had a fiancé, Charlie Homoloc, who had a friend, John. Charlie and John were both US soldiers. Photo taken in 1953.

My second layout is for the Tempting Template Challenge at Gotta Pixel. The yellow of the kit wasn’t quite the same yellow of Janette’s dress, but I felt it was a good fit for these photos anyway.

I hope you’re having a fabulous week so far. I’ll be sharing more layouts on Thursday, so be sure to come back then.

Book Nerd

Posted on January 9, 2014 by Jennifer

To me, reading is an adventure you take with your imagination. So it came as no surprise that I LOVE Queen Wild Scraps’ latest release, Book Nerd. It has lots of great book elements, like that awesome bookshelf. There are fun quote strips. And the color scheme is super fun.

There’s also some adorable coordinating journal cards.
And if you puchase Book Nerd today through January 16th, you get those journal cards for free. Plus, the kit is 50% off too, so this is a steal of a deal.

Here are two layouts I made using Book Nerd.

Digkit: Queen Wild Scraps – Book Nerd
Template: Scrapping with Liz – Simple Journal Card Inspired Templates 2
Font: Pacifico (title and photo numbers), KG Begin Again (journal/date)

Digkit: Queen Wild Scraps – Book Nerd
Template: Queen Wild Scraps – Inspired Vol 3
Font: Dutch & Harley (title), KG Strawberry Limeade (who, where, when)

Beth’s first layout uses a template from The Big Picture Templates. Henriett was on a roll and has three layouts for you. Kandice has a layout with the program and ticket stub from a play she attended with her kids. Kendra also used a template from Inspired Templates Vol 3. She’s playing along with this month’s Photo Editing Challenge at SNP.

Kristal has a cute layout about the books her daughters received for Christmas.Lyndee is playing along with the new challenge called Inspired by Pinterest. Recognize that template? It’s the same one Jennifer and Kendra used. Great minds think alike, yet make totally unique layouts. Teresa is playing along with the photo editing challenge also. Tina has three layouts to inspire. The first one is even photoless. Trinity used the Recipe Challenge to cook up her layout. QWS_BN_Trinity1
