Making Memories

With an eclectic mix of elements and wide use of neutrals, you're going to find my new Making Memories kit useful for a wide variety of scrapbooking pages. There's 12 textured and expressive backgrounds waiting to become the canvases for your next digital scrapbook pages. Then use any of the 22 elements to complete your showcase of special memories.

Multiple frames, flowers, journal elements, swirls, and an open book complement the rich backgrounds and go easily from traditional to contemporary styles.

Here's the layout I did with Making Memories from my Mom's 8th grade graduation portrait. (Yes, I said 8th grade - I told her she was jailbait!) I entered it in the county fair and it brought home a blue ribbon!!

Making Memories will be on sale for 35% off until November 9th in my shop at NutHouse-Scraps! It coordinates perfectly with both my Sunset & Memories Kit and has a matching set of Glitter Me This Digi-glitter. Mix and match them all for even more awesome digital scrapbook pages.

Wild Things - all new

Wild Things is the name and theme of the new digital scrapbooking kit that I put in the shop today! It will be on sale for 35% off until Monday, November 2nd.

With a nod to the delightful and beloved children's book and new movie from Spike Jonze, the NutHouse-Scraps.com Designers got together and created some WILD Things for you this month! My mini kit is just part of the huge coordinated Mega Collaboration. It's available separately or in the Wild Things Mega Collection.

The sailboat is probably my favorite element, the stacked 5up frames was a last minute addition when I was making a layout and needed them! (Literally, last night!)

Be sure to share your pages with me, I'd love to see how you and your Wild Things look on finished pages.

There is a matching set of digi glitter for Wild things, in the newest addition to my Glitter Me This series. Everyone needs a little sparkle in their life and on their layouts!

October THANKFUL Blog Train is Over

100 Designers from all over the world brought us 100 free digital scrapbooking kits with the same color swatches and the same "Thankful" theme. And you had 31 days from October 1st to download them all - for free!

It was an awesome thing to be a part of this blog train ... the free downloads have expired, now. Thanks to all the people who 'built' the train and everyone who followed it! I'll leave my post and photo here for posterity - (edited 8 Nov by deb)

Here's my part, inspired by this wonderful season and theme. I'm giving you some neutrals that will probably go with more than just the Blog Train kits, but you be the judge of that. The little cutie in the sample layout page in the preview is one of my adorable great-nieces. Or are those grand-nieces. Hmmm!



Don't miss the discount coupon in the zip file, friends. Our store owner graciously allowed it for everyone who rides on the Blog Train this month.



I hope you enjoyed this leg of the journey. Thanks for taking the 'scenic route' on the October Thankful Blog Train - see you next time!

May this time of the change of seasons bring a blessing to you and your family,
Big Hugs,

Memories Mini Kit Collaboration

The awesome designers at NutHouse-Scraps have made a huge new collaboration this month with a theme of Sunset and Memories. And it's all done with the beautiful hues of a sunset and Fall Colors.

For my coordinating kit, I concentrated on mostly neutral shades for the pages and tags (can you believe I got tag happy? there's two tags in a mini kit! hah! One of my friends said, "Who are you and what have you done with our Debbers??!" when she saw two tags in one small kit!)

But I went for gold and beautiful florals shades in the embellishments. You'll see a little layout page with the preview, the darling with all the fall color around her is my niece.

This is on sale now for 35% off until Monday night, Oct. 5th - along with the entire collaboration, including a 25 page full-size instant album!

Oh! And don't miss the coordinating glitter! Gosh, everyone needs a little a lot of glitter!

Make some memories ... then save them!

Back on 2 Legs Again

I saw the Ortho yesterday, he said the break in my foot didn't look like it required a cast, and so HOORAY! the crutches are history and he put me in a "walking boot".

Which is somewhat of a misnomer, you don't get much walking done. But at least there are no crutches, and I can remove it to sleep and shower.

But -- NO MORE CRUTCHES!!!

The boot relieved at least half of my pain, too, so I'm very happy with the outcome on this! I'll be trying to keep off of it, keep it elevated as needed, and generally move slowly so this bone can heal properly and without delay.

I picked the ever-so-stylish color of black (I had a choice of black, black, and black) and it goes up my leg to just under my kneecap. I am the WALKIN' picture of style now! Well, make that the Hobbling picture of ... forward movement. :)

Extras for Your Herb Garden

This month at NutHouse-Scraps.com, the designers all pulled together a mega collection called Herb Garden. It’s using some rich, luscious greens, reds, and browns that are so complimentary together! I’ve made a 6-pack of backgrounds and a delicate gold-threaded diamond overlay to match the colors. You saw a sneak peek of one of the papers a few weeks ago.

 

Extras for Your Herb Garden are all deep, textured background papers that will enhance any fall and winter layouts. Don’t forget to drop me a line when you use them, I’d so love to see what you did!

 

P.S. I even made matching digi-glitter again, but more about that soon!
