Creative Monday

August 24, 2009 | Filed Under Layouts, Shop Sales | 4 Comments 

Welcome to a whirlwind Creative Monday! It’s going to be just like the old days with no fancy pop-ups today. I’m short on time—ack! I’m sorting through the apps for the Digichick’s Creative Team call and I want to start getting back to people today… but I also don’t want to skip out on my favorite (and recently, my only) post of the week. LOL! So, here we go!

::cue announcer voice::

This week’s post features Sugarplum Paperie kits that will soon be retiring. Be sure to pick yours up today!

Here’s a stunning layout from Crystalbella, using A Little Birdie:

Seriously stunning! But although they tried their hardest, they did not succeed in convincing me to keep them. LOL! They are still on their way out the door, so if you like them, pick them up NOW! They are all just $2.00 from now until the end of the month.

Enjoy! And as always—happy scrapping!



Newsy Type Stuff

Hello, friends! Just a quick post to let you know a bit of Sugarplum News:

First up—it’s time to renew all our domain stuffs and we’re moving to a new server (yay!). But the site might be down for a few days, so don’t panic if you come here and get a strange message. LOL! Everything should get back to normal soon.

Also, I wanted to let you know that I have a few kits that will be retiring at the end of the month. You will find them for sale at both the Sugarplum Shop (while it’s still up that is) and the Digichick. The kits are:

A Golden Afternoon :: A Little Birdie :: Flirty Skirty

Midnight Garden Party :: Plumberry Teacakes

Okay, I think that’s it for now… see you on the other side. LOL!

Happy scrapping!

Creative Monday

Ah! Busy, busy, busy! Where does the time go? Last Monday I completely overlooked this post, I was so busy. That makes me feel blue. Why can’t I have all the time in the world, like I must think I have? LOL! That would be great. Can you tell I suffer from “I Can Do it All” disease? Yup—that’s me!

Well, I do have my act together enough this week to get around to Creative Monday at least. And I have some beautiful layouts to show you as well! First up is this one from Nikki, using a combo of Mixed Media and Summer Delight goodies:

And one more beauty from Jen, using the Grab Bag, Candy Sunshine and My Heart’s Song:

So much gorgeousness! Be sure to leave them a little love in their galleries. :)

Well, that’s it for this week. I’m running off to get back to work! So much to do… ack! Exciting things are happening at the Digichick, one of them being a Digi CT Call! If you have any interest in joining the team, be sure to check it out and submit an application.

And I’m still working on a pretty new thing for the next FEMNZ grab bag… can’t wait to show you!

Until next time, happy scrapping!



Creative Monday!

Yay—I’m on the ball today (it is Monday, right?! LOL!). Are you ready to get back to a little Creative Monday inspiration? I am!

First up this week, I have three lovely layouts the girls made while they were playing with The Twist Collection (while each part was on sale during $2 Tuesday all last month). Here is a layout from Jen, Amy and Bryn (just click to enlarge):

(On a side note, can you believe that these kits are now a year old?! I made them for my guest spot at the Digichick last August. WOW! I’m still really happy with them, so I don’t plan to retire them anytime soon. That must mean I’ve hit my groove and I’m a real designer now? LOL!)

Next up, I have this beautiful Candy Sunshine layout by Jess to show you:

And then here are some fabulous goodies made with The Tiny Princess Collection! First, here are these adorable party hats that Charla on the Digichick CT made using the kit:

Next up, three stunning layouts from Brenda, [our new creative team member] Nikki and Krista:

And here is an adorable box from Sharon:

Finally today, I have a few August Grab Bag layouts to show you! First here is a gorgeous layout from Bexy:

Wow! It’s so much fun to look in my Gallery at the Digichick and see all the beautiful layouts you all have made! Remember, that gallery is not just for creative team members—it’s also for you! I love to see your work and leave you some love, so be sure to upload your layouts there! I’m always on the lookout for them. :)

Hope you have a wonderful Monday and you’re feeling inspired now. Happy scrapping!



August Grab Bag

Well, I worked real hard and busted my little tail… and I got my August Grab Bag finished and loaded into the shop at the stroke of midnight on the 1st. LOL! Here’s the preview:

I’ll have lots more layouts to show you throughout the month, but for now I wanted to tease you with this beautiful one from Rosanne:

lo

There’s a hint of what’s inside the grab bag in the product’s description, if you hate total surprises. There’s a rainbow of beautiful things inside. If you’re looking for something fun to play with, I think you’ll certainly enjoy the goodies inside this bag!

More to come for Creative Monday tomorrow! Until then, happy scrapping!
