September TNL Crop at SOTB: QP Freebies

There'll be another TNL Crop over at Scrap Outside the Box tomorrow where we'll be exchanging QuickPages. Here's what I'll be contributing (download links will be given out during the crop):

Here's a LO I did with Kimberly's September TNL Crop (over at Scrap Outside the Box) kit (such fab colors)! I used this week's Template Tuesday by Mean Momma Designs over at Digiridoo Scraps ...

SOTB's TNL Crop ... with plenty of freebies

Got up at 4 a.m. on Tuesday to participate in Scrap Outside the Box's Tuesday Night Live Crop hosted by Kimberly. I'm glad I did too, it was great fun. It's a lovely way to get to know forum members. We chatted, played a game and exchanged freebies!

Kimberly had come up with a gorgeous color scheme and made a beautiful paper pack and element pack with it ... I didn't want to come empty-handed so I made alphas and some elements.

Next week we'll be exchanging QuickPages, which should be fun too!  I don't think I'll be able to join every single crop as it IS a bit early on my side of the earth :-) but I'll definitely join in more often! Come and join too!

The download links are given out during the crops ... so you'll need to be there :-)

Here's the freebies that were given out over the past couple of weeks:

Freebie Time!

I've been so extremely busy over the past couple of months, I didn't find time to post a little blog freebie for you! Well ... here's one now :-) ... especially for the heritage and vintage lovers among you!

This freebie coordinates with my Coffee & Cream kit, available from Digiridoo Scraps. It's just perfect for heritage LO's but will do for many other subjects, it's used a lot for wedding LO's.

Download HERE (sorry, link expired) and enjoy!

Friday Freebie at Digiridoo Scraps

Down under at Digiridoo Scraps they've started a Friday Freebie on their blog ... sounds good!

Check out this cute minikit by Bree ... the colors are absolutely gorgeous!

New Release: "Fresh" Kit & Alpha

I've just released a new kit: "Fresh" kit & alpha ... it's available - for a limited time only - with 25% off at both SOTB and Digiridoo Scraps.

The weather has started to turn here and I wanted to hold on a little bit longer to that summery feeling :-) Don't know about you, but I'm not ready yet for falling leaves.

The kit has 14 backgrounds and 43 elements and comes complete with not 1 but 3 alphas (upper case, lower case and 31 numbers and punctuation marks) in blue, in green and in a striped version so you can mix and match as much as you want. The alpha is available separately also at SOTB and Digiridoo Scraps.

Here's the kit:

and here's a layout by the talented Scrappie Irene ...

SOTB - 1 September Challenge/Mega Crop

I set my alarm clock this morning for 4 a.m. to participate in the Scrap Outside the Box September Challenge/Mega Crop, and I'm glad I did!

With the houseguest-filled month of August and my MIL passing away I've not yet had the chance to become real active at SOTB and this morning's chat was a great way to jump right in. It was great fun too ... all kinds of banter, games and prizes and I got to "meet" some of my fellow designers and SOTB community members. It was definitely worth to get up so early and I'll be setting my alarm clock again :-)

After most of the people had signed off, I got to talk to a fellow catlover, BeavAgain, who told the story of the latest furry arrival in their home, Char-Lee. I thought it was so moving, I wanted to share with you:

Check out part 1 of Char-Lee's story HERE (part 2 is HERE and another LO HERE ).
