10 Things Freebie & Challenge
Hello all! I was making a little freebie for you today when I thought of an idea for a challenge! I hope you’ll play along!
I have this habit of making layouts with lists “10 Things I Love Right Now” over and over again. I don’t know why! I guess I just love making these little “snapshots” of a moment in time. Do you like making lists like this, too? Well, here’s my little freebie for you:
DETAILS:
Contains one paper list
300 dpi, saved as .png file
Drop shadow for illustration only
Approx. 3 x 6 1/2 inches in size (shown here @ 15%)
Now, would like a chance to win a $10 Gift Certificate to the Sugarplum Shop? All you need to do is use this piece of digital paper to make your own list of things that you love right now using anything from Sugarplum Paperie (even the freebies). Once you’ve created your layout, upload it to your favorite gallery or your blog and then come back to this post and leave a link as your entry! One lucky winner will receive a Sugarplum Paperie gift card! And if we have over 50 participants, I will pick two lucky winners.
Be sure to leave your link for me by Midnight EST on Monday, April 7th. The winner or winners will be announced on Tuesday, April 8th!
Would you like to see the layout that I made? You knew I just had to make one, right? LOL!
…And now I am off to bed! Enjoy–and happy scrapping!
ps. I’m writing this post and setting it to show up near midnight. Since tomorrow is April 1st (April Fool’s Day!) and I don’t want anyone to think that I am playing a joke on them! No foolin’!
Creative Monday
Okay, sometimes it’s hard to decide which one is my favorite: Mondays or Thursdays. When I was working a 9 to 5 job, I never would have said Mondays were my favorite days! But now that I’m a SAHM and a digi-designer, I love Mondays! Mondays mean that things at home get “back to normal” (weekends can be crazy and messy!) and I can get “back to work” doing what I love! And now Creative Monday posts are something I look forward to as well! I hope that they brighten up your Mondays, too…
First up, I have a “Gallery Standout” layout to show you, made by Amy! She used pieces from Vintage Paperie and Little Veranda:
Next, here is beautiful layout made by Katie using Sorbet Kisses along with a pinch of Summer Sorbet:
And here is a lovely layout by Tigz using some of the new Printed Paperie pack with Sorbet Kisses as well:
The girls have also been having a great time swapping their photos with one another just for fun! Here is a great layout with photos of Jill and her little guy created by Stephanie using Walking on Sunshine:
And here’s another great Walking on Sunshine layout by Kristin. Just look at these snapshots!
And here is another lovely layout by Shaz, using lots of pretty flowers from Grasshopper Kisses. Isn’t this sweet?
(And check out this great Grasshopper Kisses layout by Michelle, too: A Star Wand.)
Be sure to stop by and give these girls some love for all their awesome work! I hope that you are feeling a little scrappy yourself now. I know that I am!
Happy scrapping!
Shanty Template #2
I’ve made another template for my challenge at the Shanty! I hope to do this every week. I think it’s fun!
Here is the template:
Just click to visit the Shanty’s blog to see the original inspiration, download the template and play along with us! We’d love to have you!
Happy scrapping!
Oops! You killed the Newsletter!
Hee hee… 
Well, we knew it would happen soon, but after the Easter Egg hunt the day came TOO soon. I now have more newsletter subscribers then I am able to e-mail at one time (and yes, we’ve already had our limits raised by our hosting service). Eek!
Travis (the “Hubby” and “Tech Support Guy”) is working on some PHP magic–stuff that goes right over my head. The fix will allow me to e-mail the newsletter out again to everyone (hopefully next week). I guess we’ll just have to have another coupon in there to make up for all the trouble, huh? In the midst of worrying and being annoyed by the problem, it’s good to remember that this is happening because I have your love and support! Thank you for that. It makes me feel all warm and cozy inside!
So, yesterday, to take my mind off the newsletter, I decided to play around with my new Printed Paperie pack and I came up with this layout, which also uses pieces from Fashion Candy and Sorbet Kisses:
The boy seriously loves that little bear!
Well, that’s all for this week! I hope you have a wonderful weekend. Don’t forget about the $1.00 off coupon for Walking on Sunshine (see below)! And, as always, happy scrapping!
Fun in the Sun!
Just in case you missed the little surprise hidden in the Golden Egg (at the Sunshine Blog), we wanted to let you know about the following coupon:
Save $1.00 on the Walking on Sunshine Mega Collection! Just use this coupon code in the shop: SUNFUN
Enjoy! And happy scrapping!
