Not Just Black and White

Posted on January 17, 2014 by Jennifer

True North Scraps has a new release today. Not Just Black and White is a gorgeous all purpose kit. A kit of neutral colours, it is a kit that every scrapper should have in their stash. This unthemed kit allows you to make layout for every occasion. Because of its neutrality, you can use this kit to supplement any other kit. It’s perfect for those P52/P365 and Project Life albums we’ve all started.

Dawna made 24 patterned, subtle tone-on-tone and glitter papers, as well as over 50 elements for this kit.

To complement Not Just Black and White is Not Just Black and White Add-On. The add-on is a large mini-kit with 12 papers that are mostly negative images of the papers in the main kit which helps make your LOs coordinate that much more. I also made another 24 elements, including a very unique button frame. There are a couple elements taken from the main kit and recolored, but the majority of the elements in the Add-On are unique to it. Dawna made the add-on as a prize for the speed scrap she was hosting (and ended up being sick so Missy from Scraps by Missy volunteered to host).

Both kits are on sale at Scraps N Pieces and Heritage Scrap for 30% off until January 23rd, and they are both included in my Grand Opening 30% Off Sale at GoDigital Scrapbooking until the end of the month.

I really enjoyed working with this kit and have two layouts to share. The first is from a trip Freddy’s for lunch and frozen custard when my in-laws and nephew recently visited.

The rest of the North Stars made some amazing LOs using these two kits. Don’t you agree?

There are also a couple beautiful gifts for you. Head on over to Robin’s blog and pick one of them up!

The second freebie is here on my blog. Click here or on the preview to download. I’d love to know what you think of it.

Have a great day!

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.

Camp Out

Posted on January 4, 2014 by Jennifer

I had intended to share this at the end of December, but you know how December is when there are little ones afoot. Today, I’m showing up two different products.

Camp Out is a fun nature kit by Mommy Made This. It is perfect for your camping trips, nature photos or even campfire themed birthday parties.

Birthday Wishes is a great template set by Memories by Digital Design. Even though it is designed for birthday photos, all but one of the layouts could be used for just about anything. The fourth could be used for any time presents involved.

I have two fun layouts using two of the templates and Camp Out. First up, is a birthday party of my daughter’s school friend. Journaling reads: Rose —-, a classmate of Jessica’s, invited us to her 4th birthday party. Rose chose a camping theme for her party. It was a lot of fun. There was a stock tank set up like a fishing pond, leaf rubbing art set up in the tent, bubble blowing, and a sand table where you could dig for fossils or treasures. Rose’s mom Jaime made the cool birthday cake that looked like a campfire. The goody bags contained mini flashlights that Jessica loved.

Second is a layout of some deer we saw in our neighborhood. Journalings reads: Our neighborhood is bordered by a large acreage of ranchland. Because of that and the nature preserve in the middle of our neighborhood, we frequently see deer. On this Sunday, we decided to drive around the estate portion of the neighborhood after lunch before heading back home so Janette could take a nap. We came across two mama deer and their three babies grazing. I happened to have my camera with me and was able to capture these photos. Aren’t those twin fawns adorable?

Here We Come A-Caroling

Posted on December 22, 2013 by Jennifer

True North Scraps has a new release to show you called Here We Come A-Caroling. It will be 30% off for a week at Scraps N Pieces and Heritage Scraps.

Here We Come A-Caroling has 53 elements to scrap your caroling memories too, from singing around the Nativity, to the cup of hot chocolate to warm up afterwards. It also includes plenty of elements for scrapping other wintery or Christmas photos too. With 24 beautiful papers, in True North Scraps fashion are so richly textured you will believe they are real papers. The kit has an alpha of the lower-case letters for you too!

I love the nativity element in this kit, so I decided I had to use that. Journaling reads: This is the first year that Jessica particpated in the Christmas pageant at our church, Shepherd of the Hills Presbyterian Church. She was the cutest little angel up there, even if her costume didn’t fit right and her wings were droopy.

Oh, Christmas Tree!

Posted on December 9, 2013 by Jennifer

It’s Grab-a-Byte time over at Scrapbookbytes. Word Art World saw the festive colors and designed a fun Christmas kit. There are five pieces you pick up for $1 each today through December 15th.

I had a lot of fun looking at pictures and deciding what Christmas event to scrap. I chose photos from our annual Christmas party last year.
