North Stars Clip Show

Posted on June 11, 2013 by Jennifer

True North Scraps does not have a new release for you this week but I love to show you the gorgeous layouts the North Stars have been working on recently.

First on the Clip Show is 5 Shades of Gray, Add On and Li’l Black Dress Alpha. There are 41 glittery, shiny and classic elements inside this kit. The 14 patterned papers, 5 glitter papers and 5 solid papers are a perfect complement to the elements and they will make your LOs exude class. As a bonus with purchase, the LBD (Li’l Black Dress) alpha is included for free, a $2.99 value. You can also pickup the elegant mini 5 Shades of Gray Add-On.

Here are a couple of layouts from North Star Robin.

Next up is Whisper, Whisper Reverse Papers Add on, Card stock and Alpha. Soft and delicate. Vintage. Those are words Dawna used 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!

Here’s a few from North Star Tina.

The next kit is Fresh As A Daisy. Don’t the beautiful greens of this kit remind you of the first little sprouts poking through the dirt, the trees leafing out, grass coming back to life, and just an overall freshness. This kit has 42 elements including plenty of daisies and there are even an adorable little girl and boy gnome to watch over your LOs. With gorgeous papers are so fresh and outdoorsy. You will have trouble deciding which ones you want to use first.

North Star poki create a few layouts for us too!

True North Scraps and Keystone Scraps got together to create this beautiful Retro Road Trip kit. With fun retro colors and just the right textures, this kit will be perfect for helping you create so many layouts about your day trips, weekend getaways and cross country travels. Scrap the whole journey with 70 elements, 38 papers (includes cardstocks!), and a full alpha!

Here’s a layout by North Star Debbie using Retro Road trip.

Plus I found a few by North Star Karrie.

Here’s a kit that was just recently be released called Blossoms of My Heart. This is a lovely feminine kit. Did you take your mother out for Mother’s Day? This kit will be perfect for scrapping those photos with. With 40 gorgeous elements in such pretty shades of pinks and purples, with a hint of green and yellow thrown in for good measure. It’s heavy on flowers, but that’s what makes it such a great feminine kit. It comes with 16 papers include 4 glitter sheets! As well, there is a cute alpha in this kit. If you love papers Dawna has created an extra pack of papers you can also get, called Blossoms Of My Heart Swiss Dot Papers.

Here’s one from North Star Kandi.

The last kit to talk about is Smooth Sailing. This huge nautical kit is the perfect colours for scrapping a Disney Cruise Line vacation, but you will find that it works well for so many summer or vacation photos. There’s a sandy beach, relaxation and play elements too, so even if you have never sailed on an ocean cruise, but you have been to the shore, this kit is for you! Inside you will find 22 beautifully textured papers and 47 highly detailed elements. Also included is a cute alpha with just a hint of glitter that will remind you of the sunlight glinting off the water. It has a full upper and lower case alpha, the numbers 0-9 and some punctuation.

Here’s North Star Lynn’s layout using Smooth Sailing.

I hope you enjoyed the North Stars Clip Show of our favorite True North Scraps kits. Be sure to check back very soon for Dawna’s next release. Have a great week!

Sizzling Summer

Posted on June 10, 2013 by Jennifer

It’s Gotta Grab It (GGI) time at Gotta Pixel. Word Art World has four pieces you can pick up for $1 each, but only through June 11th.

I have a fun layout to share that actually uses all four pieces. Journaling reads: “Since it was such a pretty day, we ate dinner al fresco. The girls enjoyed homemade juice popsicles afterward.

Let the Magic Begin

Posted on June 8, 2013 by Jennifer

Ladybug Scraps has a fabulous new Disney inspired kit out today and I was lucky enough to be able to guest CT for it.

There is also coordinating word art.

There is also an alpha add-on that contains three additional alphas: red, black, yellow (the red is in the kit).

You can pick up all three pieces in a bundle to save money. All of it is currently 50% off in celebration of the release.

I made two layouts to showcase this magical kit and extras. Both layouts contain photos from our Disney cruise back in January. The first one is all about Fish Extenders. Journaling reads: “I didn’t find out about fish extenders until after our ship’s deadline. However, there were three other moms in the same boat, so we made our own fish extenders group. Instead of giving one small token to each cabin or cabin occupants, we all ended up giving multiple gifts so each day there was something fun for Jessica to find in the hanger I sewed up quickly the week we departed. Jessica really enjoyed delivering the goodies to our FE buddies. Logan (5yo), his Granny, mom Michelle and dad Matt were in cabins 7038 and 7039 across the hall from each other. Spencer (5yo), mom Chris, and dad Robert were in cabin 7624. Brody (4yo), mom Tapestri and dad John were in cabin 5633. And we were in cabin 2608.

The second layout has the boarding picture that the on-board photographers took. I ended up purchasing the 10-image CD. Journaling reads: “The alarms went off at 6:30 and 6:45. James and I got dressed and finished loading the van. Then we got Jessica and Janette out of bed and put in the van and hit the road. They didn’t stay asleep. We stopped in Bastrop for a pit stop and the girls got dressed. Our audio for the drive consisted of Doc McStuffins, a library Dora movie and part of Cinderella. Once we arrived in Galveston, we stopped at Whataburger for an early lunch. Then James dropped the girls, the luggage and I off at the cruise terminal while he parked the van at the Port of Galveston cruise parking. I really like this family photo taken during boarding.
