Lots of layouts!

The flu has been running rampant around our house for the past several weeks, but things seem to be returning to some semblance of normalcy.  In the meantime, I've been working o some layouts :)

Easter Layouts

It's nearly Easter which means that Spring and Easter are the primary focus of the digi-scrapping stores and designers at the moment.  Here is a layout using a beautiful new kit by Black Cat Designs.  It's called 'Easter Story' and can be found HERE at Scrap Dreams!

Sweet Dreams...

I've been sick the past few weeks and I haven't really been able to scrap.  Happily I am finally getting back to it and to kick things off I have created a couple of layouts with a brand new kit, 'Sweet Dreams' from Black Cat Designs.  Check out these layouts to get an idea of all the wonderful goodies packed into this kit!

Sweet Dreams can be found here at Digiscrap Mania Shop!

Pink Harmony

I'm back with news of another wonderful new kit by Black Cat Designs!  This latest kit is called Pink Harmony and is jam-packed with all sorts of goodies (especially pink ones! lol).  This kit can be found at both DigiScrap Mania and Scrap Dreams.

New CT :)

I am thrilled to have been invited to join the Black Cat Designs CT!  You've seen some of Amiza's beautiful work in a previous post where I showcased my layout of Juliette (our newest family member).  Today I have layouts to show you from two of her recent kits that are available in her store at Digiscrap Mania.  

Here are the links to these gorgeous kits!

New Kit from Black Cat Designs

Amisza has outdone herself yet again with another amazing kit called 'Touch of Turquoise.'  The kit premiers in her shop today (Digiscrap Mania) and there is also a set of coordinating quick pages that can be purchased seperately.  Here is a preview of this beautiful kit along with two layouts that I recently created with it :)

Spring Meadow + A New Freebie!

Spring has arrived at Digidesign Resort!  Carena Designs and Mistica Designs have teamed up to created a brand new collaboration kit that is full of both beauty and color.  I'm posting previews here of both the Spring Meadow Kit and the Spring Meadow Bundle which includes the kit, coordinating quick page set, a coordinating cluster set, and bonus blogware.  The links for this amazing set are:

PLUS... these wonderful designers have graciously allowed me to offer a freebie here on my blog which uses their Spring Meadow Kit and Cluster Set.  I've posted a preview page so you can see both the quick page and a completed layout using it.

Enjoy!

Snow...

As you all know it very rarely snows in San Antonio and this year was no exception.  We saw one small snow flurry that lasted approximately 10 seconds and that was all.  lol  So when Manu announced her new kit, Frosty Fun, I knew that I was going to have to enlist help to find a picture with snow.  Luckily my SIL's parents live in Connecticut and had sent some beautiful winter photos to my FIL.  

Manu's new kit (complete with alpha, elements and papers) can be found at Scrapbook Graphics...

http://shop.scrapbookgraphics.com/product.php?productid=27061&cat=0&page=1

I also used elements from her Frosty Fun Add-On pack which is free for anyone that is subscribed to her newsletter.  If you haven't subscribed yet then here is the link to her blog:

Have a great weekend everyone!  It's cold and wet out today with the possibility of flash flooding so I am anticipating a warm weekend spent indoors by the fire :)

 

Our Newest Family Member...

We have a new family member and her name is Juliette.  She's a wonderful kitty and we adopted her just over a week ago.  Here is a photo of her although the lighting shows her to be more brown than the grey color that she truly is.  The layout was created using Black Cat Design's newest kit, In the World of purring Cats.  You can find it at Digiscrap Mania:   http://digiscrapmania.fr/shop/BlackCat-Designs.html

The journaling on the layout reads as follows:

Juliette is the newest addition to our family. We adopted her from Petsmart on Julia’s birthday, (12/30/09), and she has spent time adjusting to her new family and home. She is a very loving cat (approximately a year and a half in age) and seems to be enjoying her new life. We are all very thankful to have her in our lives!

Cats Cats Cats...

I had the good fortune to work with a fabulous kit that is orientated toward cat lovers and anyone who knows me knows that I am a SERIOUS cat lover!  LOL!

The kit is from Black Cat Designs and is called, In the World of purring Cats.  You can find this purfect kit in Amisza's store at Digiscrap Mania:  http://digiscrapmania.fr/shop/BlackCat-Designs.html  She also has a coordinating set of quick pages that are truly adorable!

I'm off to get a little sleep before my appointment with the dentist.  I have to have a root canal :(  I hope everyone has a wonderful day!

Snowy Forest

Happy New Year to everyone!  I hope all of you had a safe a wonderful New Year and are looking forward to the days ahead.  

Naturally my days thus far have included scrapping.  As such, I have a new layout to show you that is full of wintery goodness :)  The kit is from Alevtina Designs and it's called, Winter Tale.  It can be  found in her store at Digidesign Resort:  http://www.digidesignresort.com/shop/designers-alevtina-c-1_175/alevtina-kit-winter-tale-p-5015

Sentimental Journey is Here!

Sentimental Journey is a brand new scrap kit created by Manu (Scrapbook Graphics).  The kit is full of gorgeous vintage elements and papers from the 1940's era and is perfect for family photos from long ago.  The first layout, Fashionista, shows a picture of my MIL's mom walking through downtown San Antonio.  Downtown has certainly changed since then! LOL

Even though the kit lends itself to heritage style photos and layouts, it can still be adapted quite easily for modern day photos too.  My second layout shows two of my children in a fantasy scene that uses one of the background papers from the kit.

Be sure to check out this wonderful kit and take a look at the coordinating cluster pack and wordart packs too :)    Here is the link for Manu's store at SBG:  http://shop.scrapbookgraphics.com/manufacturers.php?manufacturerid=44

I hope everyone had a wonderful holiday and will have a safe and happy New Year! 

Snowy Fun

 

Texans don't get a chance to see too much snow... at least not the Texans that live in South Texas so this is most likely going to be as close to snow as my family gets for this season.  LOL

The kits used in this layout can be found at Digidesign Resort and the wordart is a blog freebie from Studio Manu.  Here are the links:

More Christmas Fun!

And yet another Christmas layout... tis the season after all!  LOL

This layout features out kitty, Maya, who died earlier this month.  She had been with us for 14 years and was a wonderful, loving companion whom I miss very much.

The layout was created in CS3 using 'A Christmas Carol Collaboration Kit' by the Digidesign Resort Designers.  It can be found here:  http://www.digidesignresort.com/shop/digidesign-resort-megakits-c-52/digidesignresort-collaboration-kit-a-christmas-carol-p-5039

Christmas Cheer

Just a few days now and Christmas will finally be upon us.  My kids are so excited and somehow my youngest son, who is 8 years old, keeps finding items to add to his Christmas Wish List. LOL

Here are a few Christmas themed layouts to help us all get into the holiday spirit.  The first two layouts (titled 'Merry Christmas' and 'Our Little Miracles') have been created using a bundle of products from Verena Karoli.  These products are also sold separately and can be found at Digidesign Resort.  The third layout (titled 'Openingthe Christmas Presents') uses a wonderful new kit, 'Christmas Dreams' by Carena's Designs and can also be found at Digidesign Resort.  

Here are the links:

New Layouts...

I have three new layouts to share with all of you today :)  The first layout is a birthday layout featuring my youngest child when he was an infant.  The kit used is from Irene Alexeeva (Scrap Orchard) and it's called 'Birthdee-Doo.'  Irene has also created coordinating sets of quick pages and Blog Couture and they are available here:  http://scraporchard.com/market/product.php?productid=19105&cat=292

The second layout was created using a HUGE collaboration kit from the Digidesign Resort designers and is called, 'We Are Family.'  This kit is approximately 1gig zipped and is well worth having in your collection as it can be used for so many different types of events and layouts.  The kit can be found here:    http://www.digidesignresort.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=52&products_id=4654

The final layout is a Christmas layout and the photos were taken at our family gathering last Christmas.  The kit used is a brand new one from Carena's Designs and is called, 'Winter Frost." It is a beautiful winter kit that can be used for wintery and holiday layouts.  The kit can be found here:   http://www.digidesignresort.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=1_23_146&products_id=4682


I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! 

Wintery Goodness...

Here's a touch of winter today!  The photo in this layout was taken by my inlaws on one of their Alaskan cruises several years back.  The kit, Amazing Snowland, is created by Irene Alexeeva (Scrap Orchard) and is full of goodies and gorgeous papers to help you scrap both wintery and Christmas holiday photos.

And for all of you celebrating Halloween tomorrow...  have a SAFE and HAPPY Halloween!

 

Pumpkins

Pumpkins abound in my most recently posted layout using Irene Alexeeva's products from her 'Fall Fantasia' product line.  I've used the Fall Fantasia kit, word art and 3d Hay Alpha to bring a bit of Fall to what is, for us, a very green city right now. Such as it is living in Texas!  LOL
