Shiver Me Timbers
I’m so excited to show you all this new kit! Queen Wild had sooo much fun creating it and she’s so thrilled that it’s finally time to release it! Shiver Me Timbers – inspired by some photos she took years ago of a pirate treasure her kids, nieces and nephews “discovered” when they were all staying on Treasure Island in Florida for a family reunion. All of the pieces (with the exception of the bundle) will be 30% off from July 10-16th. Without further ado – here it is:
And a closer look at the papers:
Lahni also created an add-on paper pack:
And we all know how fantastic Meagan’s Creations’ word art packs are so I asked her to create one with my kit:
And if you really love the collection you can grab the bundle for just $7.00 – a savings of $4.00!
I’ve made two layouts with Shiver Me Timbers. I felt that the pirate cruise we went on a couple of years ago was a perfect match for this kit, but I already did an album of the whole trip. So I decided I would do a page that my sister could put in my nephew’s album. I decided to do the jouranling from Cameron’s point of view. Journaling reads: “All of the pirates on the Black Dragon cruise loved me. Robotodo even gave me a sword and taught me to duel. I thought that sword was so cool and wouldn’t put it down.”

Then I decided I wanted to show how versatile this kit could be and made a layout totally unrelated to pirates. Journaling reads: “Ever since we bought Jessica the six-pack of Little Critter books at Costco, she has been carrying them around with her everywhere. Today, she decided she had to have them with her for a walk to the park. I put hats and sunglasses on both girls for our early evening walk. Janette was more interesting in tasting her sunglasses than wearing them.”

Proud 2 Be an American Revisited
On Friday, I shared a layout made with the new digikit by Karen Diamond Designs called Proud 2 Be an American. Well, I finished scrapping the 2010 4th of July Party our friends Aric & Kristy hosted.

This second layout is not specifically about the party, but all the photos were taken at the party, some by my friend Kristy. This also uses a fun alpha that you can pick up as part of the new Font/Alpha Challenge over at Scraps N Pieces.
