Hot! Hot! Hot!

Time for another blog train! A few of us that participated in the Design Star contest over at ScrapMatters a couple months ago decided to put together a free summer collab kit. I think it turned out great!

Here's a preview of the entire kit...although it was impossible to fit everything in the preview. But this gives you a really good sneak peek of what's inside.



And you can click the image below to get my portion of the collab.



Your next stop on the blog train is DigiRobyn.

And here's the entire blog train list, just so you don't get lost. ;) Please be patient if someone doesn't have their freebie posted yet. It will be there soon!

A free kit from me over at Digiscrap Addicts!

I found out last Saturday that I got accepted to participate in Week 1 of SYTYCD (So You Think You Can Design) over at Digiscrap Addicts. Woo hoo! There are some amazing designers in this contest, so I am thrilled just to be in their company for Week 1. (Even if it is a wee bit intimidating.) We were given four different color swatches to choose from, and had to create a kit/mini kit. Entries were due last night (Thursday, 5/7), and I just squeaked mine in. Whew! I had so many ideas of what to put in the kit, and just ran out of time to create any more for it. We’ll find out on Saturday who gets to move on to Week 2.

You can find my mini kit, Baby Bliss, here.

The kit includes:

*14 papers
*1 frog
*1 frame
*2 journaling tags (1 with pin, 1 without pin)
*13 baby tags (1 - 12 months old, plus one blank tag)
*10 silver metal word art pngs (Baby, Baby Bliss, Baptism Day, Blessed, Family, It's a boy!, It's a girl!, Love, Nap Time, Sweet)

Click the image below to head over to Digiscrap Addicts to get my free kit. Your comments on my entry are very much appreciated. I love reading all of them! And go here to check out all of the other amazing Week 1 entries!

And don't miss National Scrapbooking Day weekend at FaithSisters!

A new mini kit freebie!

I’m participating in the Capture the Flag design contest over at Funky Playground Designs. My mini kit for this week’s assignment is called 100% Boy. It’s a great kit for the boys in your life! But even though it may be called 100% Boy, a lot of it can still work for the girls in your life, too!

I have plenty more that didn’t get included in this mini kit (including an alpha), so be sure to check back for more info! I’ll post again on my blog as soon as I have it all packaged up.

Click the image below to head over to Funky Playground Designs to get my free kit. And be sure to check out all of the other fabulous Capture the Flag entries while you’re there, too!

Exciting News!

Woo hoo! I was asked to join the design team over at FaithSisters. I will gradually be adding more products to my store, but I have two products available so far. The first is my Backyard Explorers Element Pack. The second is Template #1. And both are available for 20% off April 3 – 5!

New goodies from the Hybrid Kid!

If you are looking for my free kit April Showers, scroll down to my previous post. Thanks!

But today I want to let you know about some fabulous new goodies by The Hybrid Kid (aka Melissa Wilson) available at The Digichick. She's come up with some super cute and super fun projects to go along with Eric Carle's book The Very Hungry Caterpillar.

In my effort to become a designer...

I made a new kit! I’ve entered a design contest over at FaithSisters. There are 23 entries, so that means 23 different free mini kits for you! And since we all had to use the same theme and color swatch, you can go build your own coordinating mega kit! All you have to do is register over at FaithSisters and be logged into the gallery.

Voting is from now until March 29. If you feel inclined (and yes, I hope that you do…), you can go to the gallery page here and scroll down to cast your vote. You have to be registered and logged into the gallery to be able to vote, and you only get to vote once. And since this is my blog, I’m going to go ahead and say that yes, I hope you will vote for my kit! ;) Scroll down to my kit preview and underneath the kit preview you will see a link to click on that says “vote.” My kit is called April Showers, and my username at FaithSisters is lovemy4kids. (Just to help you double check and make sure you’ve found the right kit. LOL)

Wish me luck!
