Creative Genius

Hello everyone! TGIF!! Just popping in to show you the latest release by Laurie's Scraps. This one is a super fun kit, called Creative Genius, and it's a collab with Pure Creativity Designs. The kit is filled with lots of bright colors and some great elements to scrap those creative moments. Here is my page - my little guy trying to learn how to use some great new markers he got for Christmas.

So cheery!! The colors are really versatile enough to scrap any page with this kit! I love the striped papers - I'm such a sucker for stripes! Here is a peek at the entire kit.
As always, it's 30% off this week, so hurry over to Laurie's store to pick it up! Then, stop by Laurie's blog for a freebie!

In Case You Missed It...

We had a great speed scrap this afternoon, and if you didn't make it we really missed you! I had a lot of fun and was even able to get my page done on time (even if I did squeeze it in at the last

minute)! Here's the page I did

and if you want to see some of the other pages, click here

I hope it inspires you to take the plunge next time!

Be Lovable

I can't believe how quickly this month is passing! It seems like it was barely Christmas, and now Valentine's Day is on its way! In fact, I saw stores putting all the Valentine's stuff out BEFORE Christmas! I think we're a little holiday-obsessed!! LOL!

If you're feeling a little anxious for Valentine's day, or if you have pictures of little girls that need to be scrapped, or if you just want something fun and lovey, then you've got to check out the newest kit by Digi-designs by Nicole. It's a collab with Gettin' Scrappy with Britt, and it's huge! The colors are so fun and there are a ton of elements! Here is the page I did - my youngest daughter getting creative with the shoes that belong to the Cabbage Patch dolls! She always

makes me smile!

Here is a look at the entire kit and the HUGE quick page set - click to shop! If you get them this week, they're 25% off!!

Stop by Nicole's blog too - she's got a link for a freebie from Britt, and later in the week will have some brag book freebies!

New Template Set & a SPEED SCRAP!

Laurie's Scraps is releasing a new set of templates this week, and boy was I glad to see them! I'm trying really hard to get caught up on YEARS of pictures sitting on my hard drive! Laurie's templates are always so easy to use, and they leave plenty of room for as much personal style as you want to add.

This is the first of MANY Christmas pages to come, and it happens to be from this past Christmas. (I always put off scrapping my Christmas pics because there are soooo many of them, and I get soooo overwhelmed!)

And this page is pictures of some of the finishing touches on our house before we bought it 4 years ago. (See, I really am sooo behind!)

Here is a preview of all of the templates in the set, which you can get for 30% off this week! Click to shop!

Oh, and Laurie's Scraps is having another Speed Scrap next week, so come join us! Barring any sort of catastrophe, I am planning on being there. I would LOVE to scrap with with you! Click on the flier to head to the forum!

Eskimo Kisses

In case there was any doubt, it is definitely winter where I live! It's cold, it's gray, the air is bad, and there is a ton of snow on the ground! Bleh!! I really dislike winter!!

But Nicole's new kit, Eskimo Kisses, sure found a way to cheer me up! I am totally loving the colors and elements in this kit! They are just perfect for all those pictures of snow angels, red noses, crooked snowmen, and hot chocolate drinking! I loved this kit so much that I had to find a way to scrap more than one page with it! LOL! Take a look!

Here is the entire kit and set of quick pages - linked to Nicole's store. Aren't those Eskimos, polar bear, and penguin sooo cute?!?

I know you'll just love this kit, and if you buy it this week, and use coupon code Eskimo, you can get the glitters for FREE, or you can use coupon code EKisses to get the kit and the quick pages for only $5.00!! That's a great deal! So run while you've got all those winter pages to scrap. Or, get the kit and let it inspire you to take some winter pictures!

Stop by Nicole's blog for a fun freebie add-on too!

Under Construction

No, it's not my blog that is under construction! Although, it probably could use a facelift! Laurie's Scraps is releasing a new kit today, called Under Construction, and it is so much fun! It's got lots of fun construction-themed elements, my favorite being the elements that look like gears! The colors in this kit are so rich and are perfect for boy pages! I'm always on the lookout for great boy kits!
