Baby It's Cold Outside!!!

2010-03-01T21:02:00.000-08:00

Carolyn over at Digicyber Scraps made the most darling kit called Baby It's Cold Outside. I'm a little slow with my quick pages, but I finally got moving again. This time around, I thought I'd show off two of my daughter's winter formal pics in the pages I made:

And here's the preview:

It's a Gingerbread Christmas!

May you have a wonderful Christmas season this year!

Fall Into Autumn

2009-11-20T00:00:00.000-08:00

Well, I've been absent of late. Haven't been doing a whole lot of scrapbooking for awhile. That's what comes of being a busy Mom and writer. ;)

Still, Carolyn over at DigiCyber Scraps has done a fabulous freebie kit called "Fall into Autumn" on her blog and I've got two quick pages for you out of the deal.

You can download them HERE.
Enjoy!!!

Hang tight, because more QP's are coming with Carolyn's Christmas Blog Train!

Happy Birthday America QP's

2009-07-30T08:10:00.000-07:00

I hope you're enjoying your summer. We've been so busy I've taken a break from the scrapbooking world, but I'm ready to hit it again. Forgot how much fun I had doing these! :)

Well, Carolyn over at DigiCyberscraps has given us some really fun stuff to work with. They're from her Happy Birthday America Kit and you can find out how to get it from her BLOG. Here is the preview along with some playful things I've done with them for my own scrapbook, using nothing but elements from her kit, of course!

(he insisted I switch the color to BLUE - picky little boy! lol!)

I tried to make some of them pretty plain so if you wanted to do something other than 4th of July you could - lot's of folks out there not from America! I know, I know - the purpose is to just drop the pics in, write a little something on the page and go - you can do that too if you want. :) Have fun!

Sorry, link expired.

(Please remember after a week the links get taken down but you can still buy them in her store!)

Bring May Flowers QP

2009-05-31T01:33:00.000-07:00

Today's freebie Quick Pages are from Carolyn's "Bring May Flowers" kit - her follow up from "April Showers". See her BLOG for details on how to purchase it.

I am sorry to say I only have two quick pages for you today. I didn't have time to play with this beautiful kit Carolyn put together to do it justice - I'm in the middle of chapter three of my novel and trying to get the family out for a week of camping! Eek! I hope you enjoy these two pages all the same - I chose bright colors because I LOVE bright and cheery pages in my scrapbooks.

Here are the pages with some pics I took of my daughter enjoying the tulips this Spring:

Sorry link expired

Please remember that these freebies are only up for a week, and then they go down and are still available through Carolyn's store, so grab them soon! Til later! :)

ARGH!

2009-05-26T14:32:00.000-07:00

I have word art to share, but it's saved on one of those wonderful little stick thingys that my children have lovingly misplaced for me! :P I'm headed out the door to go camping, so it will be Sat. before another freebie is posted. That's when I get to post my qp's for Carolyn's Bring May Flowers kit. So stay tuned! :)

April Shower QP's

2009-05-16T15:45:00.000-07:00

Here's the QP's for Carolyn's April Shower's Kit!

Sorry, link expired

Enjoy!

If you're lookin for free kits, check these places out!

2009-05-11T09:26:00.000-07:00

You'll have to register, but Digiscrap Addicts is having a design-off called, "So You Think You Can Design". It's fun to hear how the designers get their inspiration and see the different ideas they get off of a swatch and theme. Anyway, week one's links won't be up much longer - there were 66 kits entered!!!! Even if you're not into all the ins and outs of designing, for a short time these kits are offered free before the designers yank them and put them in a store. It's a great opportunity for freebie hounds! Also, The Funky Playground just wrapped up their "Capture the Flag" contest, and you can grab freebies there too, although some designers have already been taking down the links, so you better hurry! Here's some layouts I did last night while downloading more stuff:

Pet Dragon - Suzy Q Scraps

Momentz - Designs by DeDe

Elements are from Wubu*lous - Amy Sumrall
Paper is from Splendor - Charlie's Digiscraps

Sweet Sophisticate - Digital Couture

Pure Joy - Charliez Creations
Some elements from Fresh Air - Brandy Designs

Carpe Diem - Aneczka W Designs

You can get these kits HERE for Digiscrap Addicts and HERE for the Funkyplayground. Don't forget - you'll probably have to register - but it's free, so who cares?

I'll be back later this week with word art, and then this Sat. is my day to post quick pages for Carolyn's April Showers Kit! Fun Fun!

Word Art, Free Kit - Oola-la!

2009-04-30T06:06:00.000-07:00

Yikes! I had an unexpected play practice to run my daughters to, so I completely messed up getting the word art to you yesterday. Here's a LO I did with the word art - the word art is what I made up for Mistybelle's quote challenge over at Stone Accents Studio Forum.

Rainbow and frame) Mistybelle's Sweet Sunshine kit
(Paper) Jeanette Bollinger's Painted Rainbow Papers
(The sun) April Skies - Designs by Sarah Bennett
(Umbrella) Spring Rain - Skrapper Digitals

Here's the preview of the download:

Download Word Art HERE.

And then I thought I'd tell you about Stone Accent Studio's new welcome freebie collab. It's called Lilly Pond, and you get it free!

Go HERE to check it out. They're also about to revamp the whole look of SAS since it has a new owner, and they're doing contests and things all surrounding that - so if you're a designer, you might be interested - prizes and all!

Here's a little LO I made using the Lilly Pond kit...

Done with Ambowife Design's part of the kit.

See ya later! I've got a very busy weekend ahead of me - it starts early with today. The good news is - the play is over after Saturday! :)

Seeing Things in B&W

2009-04-28T06:25:00.000-07:00

Ahhh.... Another bunch of quick pages. :)

I don't say a whole lot on this blog because I have another blog for that - I just figure you come here for the freebies. ;) However, I think I'm going to start uploading some sample layouts and more word art - just kinda depends on how much time I have.

I left my pages a little plain because I thought it would be great to add some other dark colors to them... I love a splash of color against a b&w page. Here's a little sample of what I mean:

So - ready for the quick pages of the day? Here's the preview of what you're downloading - made with the B&W kit by Carolyn of Digicyberscraps. This is a fun kit - I plan to do a lot more with this when I'm not going out of town and running the kids to and from play practice all the time! (Thank goodness the last showing of that is May 2nd!)

Sorry, link expired...

Please remember the quick pages stay up only for a week unless they are part of a blog train.

Tomorrow I will have another word art freebie to download - this time with COLOR!

Familes Are Forever

2009-04-22T07:53:00.001-07:00

Well I have a little word art freebie for you. I made it up for my own page, to use with one of the quick pages I made up yesterday. Here's a preview:

Here's the DOWNLOAD LINK
(Ignore how black it looks on the download page - the download looks like this - I promise!)

And here's my finished page (I'm the one in color):

Remember - the word art links stay up, but the quick pages will only be up a week, and then they're only available through Carolyn's store. So grab them while you can! :)

Mmmmm... Apples!

2009-04-21T08:54:00.000-07:00

Well, we're back with some new quick page freebies! Carolyn's Applelicious kit is so much fun! I've even combined one of my quick pages with her black and white kit, which the quick pages from that will be posted next week. :)

So here's the preview of what you'll be getting this time around:

Sorry, link expired....

Tomorrow I'll have some word art uploaded to share with you - see ya then!

Spring Basket QP

2009-04-14T01:11:00.000-07:00

My turn to post my qp for Carolyn's Spring Basket blog train kit. This will be up longer than the others. :) Here's a preview of what you get this time around:

I split them up into two different files for you. You can download them HERE and HERE.

Oh, and I made up a little word art while I was doing my own pages. Here's a preview of that:

And if you like, you can download it HERE.

Have a great day!

Heads Up - Freebies Everywhere

2009-04-02T13:02:00.000-07:00

There's a huge blog train that took off a few days ago - 91 designers are participating! You know I'm filling up my memory..

You can start the blog train HERE.

Also, apparently SAS (Stone Accents Studio) has a new owner - Toiny of Piggyscraps. I was wondering what was going on - I had gotten several emails from different designers saying things were changing. SAS almost closed its doors - *shudder*. Anyway, they've got some very lovely posting bonuses for this month's challenges. Hope you go take a look - you can find them

HERE.

And then there is, of course, the blog train that Carolyn is involved in HERE.

Lots and lots of Spring going on in Digiworld! Hope you enjoy the links - see ya later!

Grandmas Wordart

2009-03-30T22:15:00.000-07:00

I am working on some pages to scrap Mom's stay with us, and found this darling quote about Grandmas. The word art turned out cute on my page - thought maybe some of you might enjoy it. On April 14th I'll be posting some new freebie quick pages - in the meantime, keep you eyes out for more word art. I'm in the middle of a book right now, but I do take breaks. ;)

Keep on Truckin...

2009-03-19T07:01:00.000-07:00

The last of this week's freebies - my mother is in town and I want to concentrate on her for the remainder of the week. Today's freebies are from Carolyn's Keep on Truckin kit...

Keep watching her blog at Digicyberscraps for where to pick this up - it's a darling kit!

Now for the previews:

Pretty in Pink

2009-03-18T07:27:00.001-07:00

Day 2 of the three days of freebies for me. :)

This is a kit you can get over at Stone Accents Studio for free. What you have to do is join Piggyscraps for her Freestyle challenge - she gives you this darling bling mini kit for free - everything you see here (except the word art) is from that. It was perfect for that old photo I have of my two older girls...

And here's the preview of what you are getting today from me:

(Don't let the black space on 4shared fool you - I checked it and it works fine)

Faith Anew QP's are Finally HERE!

2009-03-17T10:14:00.000-07:00

Yay! They are FINALLY here! Silly computer crashing on me like that! Ah well, all's well that ends well - I have buried the old laptop and moved on to a desktop with more memory, and my husband has started to see that I really DO need those nifty memory sticks. I have filled 10 GB in 5 days.... Yikes! Scrapper's hazard, I'm afraid....

So what you came for. Here is a preview of all three freebies...

Made with Carol's Faith Anew kit:

Purchase kit here

Here are some layouts I did with the QP's - I thought I'd show this time how I like to change things up - sometimes I leave room for journaling, but you don't have to fill the space at all, or you can add another picture. As a bonus quick page, I redid the green one to leave a place for a picture up at the top like this one of my 2nd daughter and her good friends (ribbons are not on quick page but are a part of her Faith Anew kit):

This one is done with a picture put at 75% opacity,
and then I put another paper from Faith Anew behind
it - the paperclip is in the kit too. Or - you can
always journal! LOL! Oh - I flipped the page too... I decided
I wanted it to look like she was thinking about what she was
before - a LITTLE girl. :)This is my daughter's baby picture put
with a picture that reminds me of her goofy teen moments...

I thought this one would make a lovely Mother's Day page
if you didn't want to do Easter...

And now, the link! Be sure to get them quick because they'll only be up a week, and then they go into Carol's store. Tomorrow I'll have some word art freebies up, and then Thursday I'll have the Keep on Truckin' pages up - so see you then!

Sorry, link expired

HAPPY ST PADDY'S DAY!

Word Art Freebie

2009-03-03T07:45:00.000-08:00

I'm still scrapbooking the twin's birthday. I am still amazed at all the pictures I take at birthdays. I ran across this picture and I adore this little guy's smile:

This page was made with Adventures for Boy's kit by jennyscrapplace designs. It's a freebie you can download off of her blog HERE.

I made some word art for this page. I used the font "1942 report" to come up with my own. I like the typewriter look - I think it's so pretty. :) I decided to store it as a PNG file for future use - and thought maybe some of you might like to have it too. Here's a preview:

You can download it HERE.

No password required.

NEW LINK

2009-03-02T16:22:00.000-08:00

The link below has been changed to a new zip file that does not require passwords. I apologize for the inconvenience - I wonder what happened? Ah well - it should work just fine now. Enjoy! :)

Birthday QP's

2009-03-02T00:27:00.000-08:00

Carolyn over at Digi Cyber Scraps came up with a really cute kit for the birthday convoy - you can get her full kit HERE.

I thought the timing was perfect, since my twins just had their third birthday! Here's some layouts I did of the quick pages for ideas - please note the candle numbers are NOT on the quick pages, but they are a part of Carolyn's kit.

and I made one extra for fun:

DOWNLOAD ALL THREE HERE

Enjoy! Be sure to check back in with Carolyn tomorrow for the next set of freebies! :)

"My Love" Quickpages

2009-02-25T07:35:00.001-08:00

Well, it's official! I'm part of Carolyn's CT (creative team) over at Digicyberscraps! Yaaaay! Today's quick pages are from her "My Love" kit. You can go to her website for the full kit - she's a gem and has offered it for free. Here's the preview:

I'm so very excited - and I'm having sooo much fun - I LOVE making quick pages!! I always try to leave plenty of room for journaling, word art, or a quote. I can't help myself! Journaling is sooo important to do from time to time - sometimes I look back and my old pics and wish I had kept journaling... I can't remember everything! My mother -in-law even mixed up my husband's baby pictures with one of his brothers... I always try to put a date, name, SOMETHING to help me identify later. Ah well, enough of that. Here's the preview of what you'll be getting in this download:

Here's some samples of my own pages using them to give you some ideas of what you can do with them (if you click on the picture you can get a clearer view of what these look like). I admit, this kit had me seeing b&w and sepia, so that's what I used in my samples:

Here's the one above that I altered by changing the hue and saturation so that it was a little more appropriate for boys - it's not just for girls!

And now for the link - you can get them HERE. The password is sweetheart (you'll need this to unlock the zip file). Enjoy - and don't forget to leave me some love! :)

I have a blinkie!!!!

2009-02-21T09:44:00.001-08:00

Dawne over at Desert Bloom Designs created a blinkie for me last night! Thanks so much Dawne! You can snag it on my sidebar if you like. :)

I think it's pretty, don't you? :) And thanks to Carolyn over at DigiScraps for giving me the code to put it on my sidebar... I'm learning all sorts of new things!

First Post

2009-02-20T07:33:00.001-08:00

My first blog post. I decided maybe it would be better to have a separate blog for the scrapbooking after all. :)

Here's the quick pages I made out of Carolyn's Valentine's Day Convoy kit. It's a fun one to play with! You can get her freebie pages HERE.

You can get them HERE.
The password is sweetheart.

And here's a page I did with one of them:
