Unlikely Pairs:Carrot Patch & Bugcatcher | Digital Scrapbooking Kit Combinations

Kimberly here to bring you a set of unlikely pairs: Carrot Patch and Bugcatcher.  The creative team did a fantastic job putting these two kits together.  I do not have these kits YET but after looking at these pages they are on my wish lists for sure.

Kristin created a two page layout using these two kits:

A fun, bright cheerful layout.  I love the flowers, bunnies and soft colors.

Carol created this cheerful layout of her grandson.  I love the butterflies, circles and scatters…so cute!

Cara created a fun Easter layout from Easter 2011.  I love the excitement in that sweet face.

 

Great job ladies!  Here is a closer look at the kits they worked with this week:

 

Chelle Scraps | 4.1 No fooling

I loved Digisrapapalooza. I have so many “favorite parts”. LOL! One of the best parts was seeing my digi friends. They got me to try crazy things: everything from a Dim Sum Bar to dancing around dressed like Elvis. I was so sad when we had to part. I didn’t get much scrapping done. Between having fun with friends, leading the green team, and teaching 6 classes, it seemed like every time I opened my computer, there was something else I needed to do. But here’s the ONE layout that I worked on. (Sadly, I’d already started it before the trip, and I just finished it now. LOL!)

For more than a year, I’ve listened to the Digi Show….and wished I could be a guest. Imagine how THRILLED I was that Steph planned to record a live show from Vegas…and I was lucky enough to get to be part of the panel! I must confess…I was SO NERVOUS! You can listen to the Live from Vegas show here.
Another one of my favorite parts was the photo walk. When I first heard Katrina Kennedy was doing a photo walk on Sunday morning, I thought, “Oooo! I’d love to do a photo walk at night. I want cool pics of the lights…and Vegas would be a fun place to practice night-time photography.” I put a bug in her ear, and she graciously obliged. I have two favorite photos from that time. The first one…well, I love Ocean’s Eleven. Not sure why, but I’ve seen it more than a handful of times. I was hoping we could get some photos of the fountains in front of the Bellagio…the ones I remember from the closing scene of Ocean’s Eleven. WOWSERS! They were WAY more spectacular than that scene, but I was tickled pink that I got such fabulous shots…and while they played Clair De Lune…just like in the movie. It was a goosebumps moment.

While I was showing Katrina my fabulous fountains shot, she showed me what she’d been shooting…US. It gave me an idea, so the next time the fountains went off, instead of focusing on the fountains, I turned my camera on my daughter (who came with me to learn to digi-scrap).

I think that might be my favorite photo.
The green team was AWESOME! We had so much fun with the photo scavenger hunt. (My daughter was a wee bit embarrassed that I struck a pose with a couple of showgirls…or that we danced the macarena in the middle of the casino.) And we laughed hysterically during the minute to win it games. Our cheer was awesome…I hope to have a video to share soon.
Just a super fun weekend…I can’t wait to do it again!
