New Releases by Meta Wulandari Designs and Heather T.

Don't you just love the colors in Heather T's new kit Summer Blast? I do! They are so vibrant and make you feel warm like you are laying somewhere on a warm beach! I made two layouts with this stunning kit; one with my picture on it and on the other one is my wonderful Mom! These pictures were taken in 2005 I believe when we went to Anna Maria Island here in Florida :)

And look at all these amazing products by Meta Wulandari Designs!!! Isn't it beautiful? Temporarily available as a Grab Bag at Gotta Pixel (your best deal right now!!) HERE or as a BUNDLE at M-Scraps. Each pack is also sold separately.

New products by Heather T.!!

Have you ever seen or bought a kit that was so awesome you can't stop creating pages with it? Well to me that's this awesome kit by Heather T. called Diamond Ice!

And no I am not just saying that because I am on her CT; if I weren't on her CT I would have bought it! It's gorgeous and sparkly :) Below you can see 3 pages I created with this kit plus, on the last page, I have also used her new watercolor washes Water Months (these are beautiful additions to any scrap page and have each month of the year on them).

On my first page that I called "Slippery Snoqualmie" I have also used Heather's Double Masks which you can buy HERE. I just combined 3 of the masks and merged them together in one layer to create the look it has now.

So go off to M-Scraps and get your Heather T groove on!!!

Thank you M-Scraps

For a fun weekend!! This weekend I shopped a lot, but also won a ton of freebies so my weekend was amazing! I will have plenty of scrap stuff for a while :)

My favorite though were all the challenges at M-Scraps. I always love the challenges on their forum and below you can see all the challenges I participated in.

The first one here is the Tell Me Your Story challenge. Basically you had to create a page with a minimum of 3 pictures showing a little bit about your world using pictures and a little journaling. For my page I used Janyelle Mayara's kit Love Novelette which you can buy HERE

The next challenge was Everything and the kitchen sink challenge. M-Scraps is especially known for the white space scrappers or fairly clean pages. The hostess of this challenge, the very talented Cheryl, is the opposite. She used pretty much every item in a kit when she creates her pages so our challenge was to do the same. Here is my page for which I used Cinzia L's kit My Sunshine

This challenge was the Journaling challenge. We had to journal on our pages why we love digi scrapping so much. I used a lot of different items for this page so I won't link to all of them but at least you should be able to find it!

For this next challenge, which was the Quote challenge, I used Deca Designs kit Complicity.

One of my favorite challenges was the Color challenge. It was Tracy's first time to host a challenge and I think she did an amazing job! Basically the challenge was to keep everything black and white but to use one color to enhance the page. So I used selective coloring on the picture and a few touches of orange to complete the page.

I used Deca Designs kit Remember You for this page and Darcy Baldwin's font Angel Baby.

The Non-Photography page was another favorite of mine. I find it hard to scrap without pictures so I have to step outside my comfort zone but I love the result!

I made this page with Queen of Hears and Micheline Martin's iNSD Grab Bag 2011 for this challenge.

Speaking of Queen of Hearts...the next challenge was hosted by the lovely Carly and she also provided the freebie template for the Template challenge. I used Queen of Heart's freebie template and Janyelle Mayara's kit Madly in Love.

The first challenge, that I am showing last, was the Scraplift Chain challenge. I lifted tj7933's page and for this page I used:

I used Ad77 Designs' kit Another Turquoise Butterfly for the papers and ribbon.
Stitches from kit Madly in Love by Janyelle Mayara.
Prongs from kit Easy by Dunia Designs.
Frames from kit Remember You by Deca Designs.
Font is CK Journaling.

I hope you enjoyed my pages as much as I enjoyed creating them and participating in the challenges! Have a wonderful week!!

New kits by Brine Design, Aprilisa Designs, Scrapable and M-Scraps

Woohooooo finally a day off! We sure need it as we drove 7200 miles within this week.

We drove from Santa Fe Springs, CA to Santa Clarita, CA to pick up our first load and took it to Columbus, OH. From there we went to Hebron, KY for our second load to Las Vegas, NV. Then we drove with an empty trailer (called dead head in the trucking industry) to Southgate, CA and picked up our load we delivered early this morning in Upper Marlboro, MD. Now we're at a truck stop in Hagerstown, MD until tomorrow when we go from Hazleton, PA to Phoenix, AZ and back to Hebron, KY. It's making me tired reading it but once you're going down the road it's not so bad. Anyway, enough about us! There are new goodies to be purchased in the digital scrap world so here goes!

Scrapable has a gorgeous new store collab called Secret Garden. Perfect for all your spring pictures and pages you want to do or gardening pages in general or whatever else comes up in your mind of course :)

You can buy it HERE

Note: Not all items on my example page are inside Scrapable's collab!! I made this page for another challenge and used the papers, glitter styles, frame and little worm from the collab. Everything else is from other designers!!

Aprilisa Designs has some amazing new templates out!! They are called Picture Perfect #5 AND #6. Number 6 came about because one of the CT-members was looking for a template which could hold 6 pictures so there ya go! Aprilisa did it in the Picture Perfect #6 templates.

You can get #5 HERE and #6 HERE

Second release this week is a beautiful collab by Brine Design and Studio Demo! Don't you love those funky colors? The papers are gorgeous and will make your pictures pop!

You can buy the collab HERE

And then last M-Scraps beautiful April store collab called Barefoot In Spring. TONS of gorgeous papers and elements that will suit anyone's taste!

So make sure to check out these kits and splash some money and love around!
