Join me at Digitals for the scraplift challenge! You can find the thread here.

-------------------

Hi Everyone,

WELCOME TO December/January!

Can you hear the clock ticking? The holidays and a new year are knocking at the door. This year has been tough in a lot of areas for me, so I'm looking forward to a new year and a new start. One big Christmas wish for me is to find that missing creative mojo! I also want to do a lot more pages for myself in addition to the designing.

Great layouts in response to last challenge! This is such a fun challenge to run, everyone is so creative and I love all the different takes on the layouts each month.

This time I chose Merry-Christmas-Miles by the51mom. I love her photo placement and the clustering of lots of elements! And of course I love that she used my Retro Christmas kit to do the layout. Lots of inspiration here!

You can find this layout here. You can also find her gallery here. Be sure and check out her gallery for one beautiful layout after another. I sure hope you'll stop by and leave her some love.

I hope you can find some inspiration in this layout to scraplift. Be sure to include at least three items by Digitals designers in your layout to be eligible for the prize.

When you've completed your layout, post it to the Scraplift Gallery, then come back and post a link to your page to this thread. This gives us all a chance to oooh and aaah over your layout. It will also help me to make sure that I don't miss sending out anyone's posting bonus.

Here is a preview of your prize this month.

I wish everyone a wonderful Christmas or whatever other holiday you celebrate during this season. Also, a very healthy and prosperous New Year! I want to thank every one of you who participate each time, I enjoy seeing what you do with the challenges.

Have fun and I can't wait to see what you do with this challenge!

p.s..... Keep your eyes open, I am (along with a number of other designers) retiring some of my products from the store. They are discounted at a great value and will be discontinued January 1st. Don't forget to pick up any that you are interested in before they are gone. Happy Shopping!

Hi Everyone,

WELCOME TO October/November!

Time flies by faster than I can keep up with. We are now finally getting into fall here and I'm loving it. Spring and Fall are my two favorite seasons. I love the changes and the nice weather. We've had more than our share of rain lately, but the trees will be changing soon and I can't wait to see all the colors.

Great layouts in response to last challenge! This is such a fun challenge to run, everyone is so creative and I love all the different takes on the layouts each month.

This time I chose Hot by our very own ChristineS. I love the colors, the flow of the photos, the layering of elements and the journaling. It's a fantastic layout! Lots of inspiration here!

You can find this layout here. You can also find her gallery here. Be sure and check out her gallery for one beautiful layout after another. I sure hope you'll stop by and leave her some love.

August/September 2011 ~ Scraplift Challenge

Join me at Digitals for the scraplift challenge! You can find the thread here.

Hi Everyone,

WELCOME TO August/September!

WOW, time flies! I can't believe it's time to post a new challenge. The summer here has been very busy and doesn't show any signs of letting up as college starts the end of this month. I'm trying to figure out how my son jumped from Kindergarten to college in a blink because that's how it feels. I apologize I've been sort of absent from the challenge, hopefully I'll keep up with it better this time around. I've been searching all over and can't seem to find my creative mojo. If anyone has seen it, I'd love to have it back.

Great layouts in response to last challenge! This is such a fun challenge to run, everyone is so creative and I love all the different takes on the layouts each month.

This time I chose Hot Fun by Julie. I love circles and I especially love all the layers and repeating elements she used. Of course I love that she used one of my kits and how well it coordinated with her photo. Lots of inspiration here!

You can find this layout here. You can also find her gallery here. Be sure and check out her gallery for one beautiful layout after another. I sure hope you'll stop by and leave her some love.

I hope you can find some inspiration in this layout to scraplift. Be sure to include at least three items by Digitals designers in your layout to be eligible for the prize.

When you've completed your layout, post it to the Scraplift Gallery, then come back and post a link to your page to this thread. This gives us all a chance to oooh and aaah over your layout. It will also help me to make sure that I don't miss sending out anyone's posting bonus.

Colour Inspiration ....

Inspired by some links our designer group was sharing yesterday, I created this palette of colors from a recent photo of my spring daffodils.

Wouldn't these colors make a pretty scrapbook kit?  I'm definitely saving this for a future kit.

I haven't been very good about blogging lately.  Things have been busy with the end of Ollie's senior year drawing near.  My creative mojo has been playing peek-a-boo and I haven't really done much design stuff.  On the other hand, I have been working on pages for Ollie's scrapbook.  Slow going, but I have had much more creative mojo doing layouts than designing.  I really haven't been very inspired to sit at the computer much at home either.

Probably time to dust off my word for the year

I need to focus on getting on a better routine with designing, advertising, blogging, etc.  I need to get back into a better routine of going to the gym and paying better attention to what I eat.  I want to continue to work on pages for Ollie's scrapbook.  It's so hard to believe that he's graduating high school and headed to college in the fall!

In the meantime, I hope you find some inspiration from my daffodils.  After the long snowy winter, the spring renewal feels especially good this year (except for the pollen and allergies!).

***NEW*** ~ What a Pear

Juicy and sweet with a soft, buttery hue... What a Pear! This is the season of cleansing, the season of renewal, the season of change. Think fresh green meadows and shady willow trees. Think peace, tranquility and serenity. This kit is just overflowing with the delicious flavor of a sweet spring pear in its many variations of color. The white to yellowish color flesh of the pear was once referred to as the "gift of Gods", so enjoy the fruit and dress this kit up in a heavenly fashion! Grab spring, adopt it as your own, and imbue it in your soul. Then, never let it go.

What a Pear Kit:

 

Kit contains:  1 Banner, 1 Basket, 1 Bead Border, 2 Binder Clips, 1 BookPlate, 2 Bows, 2 Brads, 2 Butterflies, 3 Buttons, 3 Flowers, 2 Frames, 1 Frame Set, 1 Journal Page, 2 Mats, 1 Paperclip, 4 Pears, 6 Ribbons, 1 Twisted Ribbon, 1 Swirl, 1 Swirl Clip, 2 Tags, 2 Tiny Tags, 1 Torn Border, 7 Embossed Papers, 12 Patterned Papers

Coordinating What a Pear Alpha:

Contains:  26 Green Letters, 26 Pink Letters, 10 Green Numbers, 10 Pink Numbers, 13 Green Symbols, 13 Pink Symbols

Coordinating What a Pear Clusters:

Contains:  6 Clusters (png format)

Also available as a bundle!

Coming Soon .....

April/May 2011 ~ Scraplift Challenge

Join me at Digitals for the scraplift challenge! You can find the thread here.

-----------------------
WELCOME TO April/May!

Is it spring where you are yet? We are struggling to find it here, winter just does not want to give up. Fortunately we did not wake up to snow this morning as predicted, instead just a cold "thick" rain (meaning big fat rain drops with some flakes mixed in here and there). Regardless, the spring bulbs are starting to make an appearance and I believe the daffodils will bloom in the next days. Come on Spring!!

Great layouts in response to last challenge! This is such a fun challenge to run, everyone is so creative and I love all the different takes on the layouts each month.

This time I chose Sweet Sixteen by Maggie965.



With my son's senior prom coming up, this layout is perfect to scraplift and showcase some of the pictures. And yes, it may look familiar because this is actually her take on the last Scraplift. I love the way she turned it to suit her photos an ended up with a different and unique take on the last challenge. SO, even though it's a scraplift of a scraplife, I think it's just perfect for this month. The black background and vibrant colors are stunning. LOVE it! Tons of inspiration here (color, layout, theme ... possibilies are endless)!

You can find this layout here. You can also find her gallery here. Be sure and check out her gallery for one beautiful layout after another. I sure hope you'll stop by and leave her some love.

I hope you can find some inspiration in this layout to scraplift. Be sure to include at least three items by Digitals designers in your layout to be eligible for the prize.

When you've completed your layout, post it to the Scraplift Gallery, then come back and post a link to your page to this thread. This gives us all a chance to oooh and aaah over your layout. It will also help me to make sure that I don't miss sending out anyone's posting bonus.

Accepted Students Day .....

We got to go to college yesterday.  It was Admitted Students Day @ FDU.  We also attended the Scholars Reception.  Was a great day to visit the campus again.  I think it really solidified things for Ollie.  So much so that he had to have a FDU t-shirt and this little guy just had to come home with us.

I think we are ready to send his deposit this week and then hold on for the ride!

Baby Mittens .....

Found this photo I had scanned a while back lurking in my files. I miss my Mittens! She was a gift from my boyfriend (and roommate) on the 4th of July in 1989 when I was living in Seattle. Such a tiny little thing about 6 weeks old. She was with us until January of 2005. She was my baby before Ollie came along. Even though we have six fur-babies now and I wouldn't trade any one of them .... well I still miss my little girl.

Journaling reads:  Look at that sleeping kitty.  Can you find her mousie?  Playing with him must have tuckered her out.

Another gorgeous layout from Beth ....

Love her layouts, love even more that she uses my kits (or in this case a Sisters by Heart kit).  Isn't this layout gorgeous? 

She used the new Sisters by Heart ~ Brown vs. Pink kit from Sisters by DeDe Smith and Georgia Oliver.  You can find it @ Digitals here.

She's done it again .....

Beth is simply amazing!  I send her a kit and she can whip out a fantastic layout faster than anyone I've ever seen.  I'm in awe of her talent.  Here's her first layout with the new Sisters by Heart ~ Brown vs. Pink kit.

Isn't this great?

Sisters by Heart ~ Brown vs. Pink

Sisters by Heart has a brand new kit in the store!  Introducing Brown vs. Pink ....

DeDe (DesignZ by DeDe) happens to love the color brown and her sister by heart, Georgia (Dreams Ink! Digital Designs) happens to love the color pink.

Use just the brown parts or the pink parts or put them together for that magical touch!

Remembering Papa .....

Three years ago today we lost such a huge piece of our family and heart.

Here is the post I did that day:

http://dreamsinkdesigns.blogspot.com/2008/02/my-beloved-papa-merlin.html

This photo was taken the last time I saw Papa Merlin.  I miss him each and every day.  I'm know he's with Grandma Vonda now and they are watching over my angel, Jenn.



Reminding myself ......

WELCOME TO February/March!

We are having quite a winter here in New Jersey! I know many others around the country are also. We've already logged about 5 feet of snow so far for the season and we have 2 months of winter left.

You can find this layout here. You can also find her gallery here. Be sure and check out her gallery for one beautiful layout after another. I sure hope you'll stop by and leave her some love.

I hope you can find some inspiration in this layout to scraplift. Be sure to include at least three items by Digitals designers in your layout to be eligible for the prize.
