“TELL ME MORE”

I have a wonderful announcement! 

Do you LOVE to scrap but struggle when it comes time to add journaling to your layouts?  I do.  Sometimes I just don’t know where to begin with telling the story that goes with the photos.  Other times the story comes to me easily but getting it into the LO to look just right can be a challenge. That is why I was so excited when I found out Chelle, of Chelle’s Creations, was going to be hosting a journaling class. I am all signed up!!!

It’s Calendar Time Again!

I love my calendars. I have many. A large one on my refrigerator that is a record of my family’s comings and goings. I use my cell phone calendar to help remind me, with alerts, that I need to be somewhere. Calendars are part of our lives. We all have them and we all use them. That is why a calendar makes such a great gift. Right now, at ScrapMatters, we have a wonderful calendar in the store.  Andilynn’s creative team, of which I am a member, has designed a beautiful calendar using various designs by Andilynn. aldct_2010_preview

The top halves all come in a PNG format, just waiting for you to add your own photos. The bottom is a JPEG so you can add text, photos, what ever you need to to make it your own.  Here is a sample of what I like to do to the calendars I give away as gifts.

July

As you can see I like to add the birthday boy, or girl, and thier name and ages (for kiddos under thirty) to help make the calendar a little more personal and help the recipient remember all our family birthdays.

You can dress your calendar up anyway you want to.  Hurry over to ScrapMatters and purchase your calendars, the gift giving season is just around the corner.

*As a CT member for Andilynn Designs I received these items at no cost to myself.

Gotta Love a Great Template

I don’t know about you but I love using templates so when I can get my hands on a great set I get pretty excited. Andilynn Designs has a new set out and I love them. I love the clean block design with the touch of round. folder

Lifeguard On Duty

Here is a LO I just did using  FUNTIMES and BEAUTY PARLOR Alphas (altered) by Andilynn Designs
OH MY STARS Alpha by Chelle’s Creations. The ribbon, staples, flower, heart and string from ENJOY THE MOMENT by Sahlin Studio. All found at ScrapMatters.  I even made the papers and some of the elements myself. It was fun to dabble in designing again.

Hybrid Is Coming To SM & T Celebrate, What Else…A Sale

hybrid-sale-ad-3

Mega Template Kit FREE with $20 purchase! 

This is a huge kit with the most incredible templates. Our DT really out did themselves with this one.

There will also be a Hybrid Grab bag free with a $10 purchase of various hybrid products. Our hybrid designers will also have hybrid grab bag or two for sale.

Hybrid greatness is at SM and while we’ve always had such a great hybrid team at SM, they haven’t always had much to work with, their very resourcefulness has been amazing. Anyway to remedy the situation SM is going to start selling Kaiser Craft’s amazing pressboard albums. These are perfect for mini-albums, they are sturdier than chipboard, yet light weight. We also have new hybrid designers as well as a new hybrid CT just waiting to show off their skills. Since this is SM’s first time selling tangible, IRL (in real life) products it should be quite an adventure. The hybrid celebration will continue all month long during July, so keep checking the shop, forum and gallery to see what fun ideas the hybrid team is creating.

Hope you will be joining us for the big kickoff at ScrapMatters!

Can You Believe It…A Freebie For You!

I can’t even remember the last time I made a template let alone gave one away. It has been a while. I found this really cool advertisement in a magazine and it just screamed “template” at me so I designed a LO with it then made you all a free template to play with. I hope you enjoy it.

Here is the LO I made. You can find the credits here

And here is the template I made for all of you.
