Fleur de Violette

We’re taking a look back at a classic kit today: Fleur de Violette. It’s full of spring flowery goodness that will remind you of fond memories you’ve had and is great for enhancing your digital scrapbooking pages of a wide variety of topics. Take a look at what the Creative Team has to show you.

First, Mel had a fantastic photo of her and her two daughters doing a selfie. She applied a tint to the photo to give it an extra effect, and it looks perfect with our featured kit. I love her clusters of flowers on the top right and bottom left.  Smile-MMT-copy

Kayla has a couple of pages to show us, both using templates from Fiddle-Dee-Designs. The first one is a photo of her daughter Aspen taken at Easter, and the second is a close-up of her daughter Megan. Notice how she used the lined paper on each layout? I love that she lined up her journaling on the lines. EasterBlooms_Apr11_web_zps6a2e1c7eFlirtyGirl_Jan13_web

Here’s a closer look at the kit in the market, but let me point out that there’s also a bundle that includes some quickies and other great extras, and there are InstaLife cards and Journal Cards sold separately, great for printing and using in your daily albums or for using in your Project Life phone app. fleurdeviolettete

Bunny Hop Playdate | Digital Scrapbooking Week in Review

Hello Friends!

Are you ready for Spring? I sure am. Chelle’s newest kit really has me a hoppin’. Yes you did read that pun correctly. Sorry, I couldn’t resist. This weeks new release is called Bunny Hop. When you buy it and the Bunny Hp instaLife Cards, you’ll receive the Bunny Hop Journal Cards for FREE. Chelle also has a special this week. Spend $5 in her store and you’ll get the Makin Tracks Elements for FREE.

I remember dying easter eggs each spring. If there were any eggs leftover, I would get to go on a hike the Chelle’s Dad and her 2 sisters. We would hike up Trenton Hill and then roll the eggs down the hill. It was so fun to see who’s egg would roll down the hill and stay intact the longest distance.

Here are the new releases:

Adding Lyrics to your Layout | Digital Scrapbook Inspiration

Hey Scrappers!

One fun thing you can do on a layout is add the lyrics to your favorite song…or a song relevant to the memory you are scrapping.  Lyrics to a song are typically copyrighted (there are very few exceptions) so you won’t find a paper with the lyrics to Spoonful of Sugar in a Mary Poppins kit, but that doesn’t mean you can’t make your own.

Create a text box the size of your paper.  Then either type the lyrics or copy and paste them from a lyrics site on the internet.  Paste them over and over until it fills the space.  Tweak your font, alignment, & leading until everything looks right.  You can also play with the blending modes & opacity.  Ta Da!  Now you have a new paper perfect for your memory.

Check out these layouts from Jen & Jan:

Lucky Me

Top of the Mornin’ to ya, Chelle’s Creations fans! Chelle’s CT members have been playing with her Lucky Me bundle this week, and I have a couple of their digital scrapbooking pages to show you. This bundle is a collection of a greens, golds, and oranges that are perfect for documenting your St. Patrick’s Day celebrations or anything that makes you feel lucky. I’ve been on a roll finding four leaf clovers lately, and Chelle’s kit even has a perfect digital match to my clover leaves.

First, Karen has some pictures of one lucky dog who is a special part of her family. She captured him on a warm, spring day resting while they were out for exercise. I love the stacked papers she used in the background. luckymerascal2012_600_zpslrbnrdt0

Next, Jenn took a group photo of her crew at a St. Patty’s Day parade, and what better way to record the memory of that fun day than have that photo be huge on the page. She used the word art as well as the kit for her page. If you’ll look closely, she has used the clovers I mentioned on the top corner of the “N” in her title. Aren’t they perfect? going green

The bundle in the market is a really good deal. I know you’ll feel lucky to have found it here – like finding your pot of gold at the end of the rainbow. Check it out!
