Posted on by

Baseball is America’s favorite pastime and holds many a fan enraptured season after season. The Old Ball Game is a timeless scrapbooking kit from Scraps N Pieces packed full of red, white, and blue to celebrate a love of baseball and Americana in general. Featured elements include a baseball, a bat, a catcher’s mitt, peanuts, ephemera, thematic word art, and a baseball-filled alpha. This kit is also versatile enough to be used for the 4th of July or to mix and match with the best of your stash. Whether you’re going out to the ball game or playing catch in your yard, The Old Ball Game will complement your photos well. Batter up!

This kit is 1/2 off this week at Scraps N Pieces’ My Memories store and Scraps N Pieces store. SNP_TOBG_Preview SNP_TOBG_Papers SNP_TOBG_Allpha

I don’t have a lot of baseball pics, so I scrapped a few photos of my nephews Cameron and Trevor.

Word Art World has a really great contribution to GGI this month, called All You Need is Love. The elements pack has a ton of beautiful flowers in various sizes. Each pack is $1 each through April 15th. You can also buy the elements and papers together as a page kit.

I decided to scan some baby photos of my sister-in-law. This first layout also uses word art from Quoted Vol 1.

Also there is this fun CU paper making pack if you want to design you own Half-Tone papers.

I decided to scrap photos from our cruise last summer when we were able to meet Mr. and Mrs. Incredible. Does it surprise you that Jessica didn’t want to be anywhere near them?

Dressed in White Blessing Day

Posted on by

Scraps N Pieces have a beautiful new release today that was about a year in the making.  Heidi and Lori started it back when they made their Dressed In White – Wedding kits and the colors were really hard to work with, so it got put on the back burner.  But, it is finally finished and they LOVE how it turned out.

Dressed in White – Blessing Day is a calm kit for your most solemn and special occasions. This kit’s subdued color palette shows reverence and allows the emphasis to be on your photographs. Dressed in White – Blessing Day was created specifically for baptisms, dedications, and blessings and comes with thematically-appropriate elements, including a white gown, white shoes, and silver word art. Other featured elements include delicate lace, pearls, butterflies, and flowers. Scrap the stories of your most important blessings with Dressed in White – Blessing Day.  It is half off this week. It should be in the My Memories store any day now as well.
