My Kit and a Freebie

August 28, 2009

I am thrilled to finally be to post a some pictures of my first kit "Morning Sun", some layouts I did, and a new freebie QP. I had a lot of fun putting together my layouts. I have really enjoyed using th sun rays overlay in my designs, it seems to add a nice glow to the clusters I created.

My hope is that once I get a few more kits together I can start looking for a digital scrapbooking store to sell my kits in. Right now I'd like to be actively seeking a "home" for my work by the end of September. I always find that it helps me to have a deadline to keep me moving! :)

So here's my kit, the elements, papers, and layouts.









Now here's the QP freebie I created from my kit. Enjoy!

My First Scrapbooking Freebie

August 24, 2009

I have officially completed my first digital scrapbooking kit! The title is "Morning Sun". I must say it was a lot of fun, though a bit intimidating as this was my first attempt to put a full size kit together on my own. I am lucky to have a nice selection of commercial use items to help round the elements I included.

My inspiration came from the morning glories that grow in my yard. You can see Griffin here posing with one when he was just a pup. (This photo won me a $500 jewelry gift certificate!)



In the next day or two I will be posting some of the previews of my kit as well as layouts that I have completed.

To celebrate my first creation, I have a freebie, a cluster frame that I created. I'd love to get any feedback on my work, so please feel free to leave a comment or drop me an email.

My New Digital Scrapbooking Home

August 21, 2009

Welcome to my blog! This is my first adventure into the world of blogging. I hope to feature some of my digital scrapbooking creations, photos and other design work here. I just finished up my blog layout last night. What a task that was. Having never worked with CSS(web code) I found all of it a bit intimidating. Luckily, I stumbled across some great tutorials that walked you through the process of customizing a blog. Hope you enjoy my finished product!

I really wanted my blog theme to reflect some of my style and design inspirations. I hope to occasionally do an overhaul of the style to keep things current with my scrapbooking trends. I'd also like to add a gallery and collection of great links to digital scrapbooking and photoshop tutorials.

In the coming weeks look for me to begin adding some digital scrapbooking freebies (S4H friendly and CU). I'm just beginning to get some scrapbooking kits together and I've been so busy extracting elements from photos that I think my computer may go on strike soon!
