En La Playa

 

Katie Creates has a new kit in her store called En la Playa.  It reminds me of this past summer.  Lots of surf and sand, and even some sandals!  This kit will be on sale this week, so be sure to grab it before the prices go up.

I love the bright papers and elements against these darker (and older) pictures.  It really does feel like a day at the beach.

Hall Pass

 

One week left of summer vacation here and then it is back to school for the kids.  As I type this I am over hearing both kids that can’t wait to get back, and some that are moaning that summer is almost done!  Leaving a Legacy Designs has a new kit out called Hall Pass.  Unlike a lot of kits out there this one takes on an older feel.  (Yet as my layout shows it still works for kids of all ages)  Here is her new kit:

Hall Pass

As I had mentioned before since I have been electronic free I have been cleaning.  One of the things I found was a library card from one of the schools I attended.  I thought that this kit worked beautifully with it, and the colours matched one of my school photos perfectly.  Here is what I did:

You can currently find this kit for 30% off at both Stuff to Scrap and Scraps N’ Pieces, but only for a few more days.

Grandma’s Attic

 

Since I haven’t had any distractions, I have taken this time to sort through a lot of the “unseen” things that I own.  You know the stuff that is in the basement, attic, or just the back of the closet.  One thing I found was the suit my Grandmother wore on her wedding day.  It still smells like her even though she has been gone for 14 years now.  Smell is such a powerful sense.  I was instantly brought back to her house.  Seen her smile.

I was happy to work with MDK Scraps newest kit, Grandma’s Attic.  You can currently find both the kit and the quickpages for 40% off for a limited time.  The previews are linked directly to the store.

Grandma's Attic - Quickpages

Since I had taken her suit out, I took some pictures of it.  I combined those photos with their wedding photos on my layout.

P12 August

 

This has been quite the month.  I think I have had a headache for most of it.  (Literally and Figuratively!)  Between the noise, and the lack of cable, phone and internet (and throw in some power outages) its been interesting.  So right now, I am at a friends trying to bring myself back to the electronic world we live in.  Needless to say I haven’t done much scrapbooking either, which is driving me crazy.  I do however have a new kit to show you that I worked with, and even got a freebie for you as well.

Here is Romajo newest instalment in her Project 12 series – P12 August

Pray for Haley Designer Charity Collab

 

For most of us, childhood days are seen as a carefree and joyous time. It's time to run, play, and hang out with friend - to grow up and find our place in the world. Unfortunately, not every child is given the same opportunities. Pray for Haley is collaboration kit made by some of the finest artists in the digital scrap-booking community to help a young girl in need. Haley was recently diagnosed with bone cancer and is missing the current school year because of her treatments. Her strong will and determination has allowed her to keep up with her school work and she looks forward to the day she can return to the classroom and her friends. The profits from Pray for Haley will be given to this courageous girl and her family to help with mounting medical costs. When the time comes to scrap all the joyous moments in the young person in your life this kit will offer you a multitude of options for beautiful scrap book pages as well as help a young girl in need.

We have split this kit up as separate pieces if you feel like you can only donate a little bit, as a Big Bundle, and for the greatest savings, we also have a Mega Bundle option to get everything.  Please click on slideshow below to go to the store and help this little girl in need.


 

I loved being asked to help with this.   I created a couple QPs.  And this kit is beautiful.  I had a hard time stopping.  There is so much variety.  Thank you for anything you can do.
