Creative Monday

It’s Monday! That means it’s time for a little beauty on the blog today… it’s Creative Monday Time!

First up today: here is a great layout from Dani using the Everyday : August Grab Bag and some Girl Friday goodies:

Here are four wonderful layouts using the Just a Girl collab from Jen:

Amy:

Ebony:

…and Sya:

And here is a wonderful card by Jess using the Girlfriends collab:

Gorgeous stuff. I hope you enjoyed the inspiration today. I know that itching to get some scrapping time myself!

Also, you may have heard about this fabulous new collab at A5D that was released this weekend. It’s called Hands Across the Gulf:

I wanted to share a few layouts made with the collab with you today. I couldn’t find a layout using one of my patterned papers to show you, but I did find one from Krista, who’s on my creative team, using a few of my elements (a stamp and some word art):

And I love this gorgeous one from the talented Crystal (who used to be on my creative team, so I figured she wouldn’t mind showing up on the blog for Creative Monday). She also used some of my elements on her page (stamp, bow, button and flower):

I was so honored to be invited to be a part of this collaboration… and be able to do something to help the waters I love so much! I’m a Gulf Coast Resident, so this project was very close to my heart. Siesta Key, which is just a few minutes from my house, has some of the whitest sand in the world. So far, we have been spared, but I shudder to think what will happen to our beaches if the currents shift or a hurricane comes to stir things up in the Gulf.

I hope you will consider purchasing this fabulous collab. It is simply packed with gorgeous designs from so many talented designers. You will NOT be disappointed. Such a small price for so many digital goodies… and for such a good cause.

Well, that’s all for today! Stay tuned for some $2 Tuesday news tomorrow.

Happy scrapping!

Creative Monday

Welcome back, Creative Monday! We are here this week with a BANG!

Yes, it’s been a while since I made the time to blog a little more around here… Creative Monday kinda fell by the wayside. So did posts with sneak peeks and news about $2 Tuesday specials, too. I tried posting some of these things on my Facebook fan page, but it’s just not the same. I love blogging! (I’ve been posting a lot on my personal blog recently.) I’ve just been slack about writing about my digital news—but no more!

Let’s get on to the beautiful layouts and projects I have to share with you today, shall we? I have a lot of things to share—so hold on to your hats!

First up is this wonderful layout from Amy using a mix of Sugarplum kits and other goodies (you can click to visit her gallery for a list of full credits):

Here’s a lovely layouts from LeeAndra, Amy and Jen using the Happy Hearts collab (just click to enlarge):

And here’s a beautiful layout by our new August Guest, Maria:

Here’s a gorgeous tag created by Clare, a Hybrid Chick, using the Girlfriends collab:

And here’s a stunning layout another August Guest Ju using the So Grateful collab:

Here are some beautiful layouts using A Perfectly Ordinary Day. First, here’s one from Maria:

And finally, here’s one last one from Jess, using Everything Under the Sun:

Whew! That’s a lot of creative beauty. Hope you enjoy the inspiration! I know I feel like making something now.

Happy scrapping!

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:

How precious!

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

Here is a lovely one from Sya:

And finally, here is a fun one from Carly, on the Digichick CT:

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!

Creative… Tuesday!

Um… where did my Monday go? Whoosh. How about we have a little “Creative Tuesday” instead?! Hooray!

I have two official announcements to make! First, I’m so happy to welcome back Brenda to my creative team! Here’s a gorgeous layout she made with the new Candy Sunshine kit:

And we have another new addition to the team as well—Jenn (a/k/a jennamy82)! Here is a sweet layout she made using the Lime Twist kit (which is on sale for just $2 today!):

So happy to have you on the team, girls!

And then I just had to share (steal) three gorgeous projects from the talented Jacinda, who’s on the Digichick’s creative team. She made these with the new Candy Sunshine kit (and the Torn Out Alpha, which goes so well with this—wow!). Just click to enlarge:

Be sure to leave these girls some love for all their inspiring work! Just lovely… makes me feel all scrapping.

Well… I have one more thing to share with you a little later today… be sure to be on the look out for it. It’s a sneaky peek at a new collection of goodies that will be making their debut on Thursday!

Until then, happy scrapping!
