Speedy Speed Scrap

Hello again from Fort Worth, Texas! I just finished up my weekly speed scrap at GDWI and I had a blast just like I always do!

This week was hosted by Heather of Heather T. Designs. Heather always keeps us on her toes with her interesting directions and her minimalistic approach to scrapping.

Next week will be hosted by Vanessa of ViVa Artistry. It is sure to be a great time so make sure you join us for all of the fun! I can guarantee good company and plenty of conversation about scrap booking and food!

I'll see you all Saturday at 10pm est.

Finally a New Release!

And this one is so gorgeous you definitely don’t want to miss it!!

I saw these 2 really awesome layouts made by my cousin, both of her daughter’s birthday celebration.  So I asked her if I could make a couple templates from those layouts, and she said yes!!!  I was so stoked!  But then I went without internet, and I’ve been so busy getting Get Digi With It running smoothly since the take-over, that I hadn’t had a chance to do them.  Well, finally I buckled down and did it! It only took a speed scrap to encourage it (Thanks Mel!) and I totally love the way they turned out! 

So here is the “Celebration Doubles” two-page template pack.  It comes in 3 file types: .psd, .tif, and .png.  The layered file types also come in 24x12 version and 12x12 versions.  You can get it in the store for 40% off right now too!!!

 

 

I did this layout with one of these templates the other day.  Boy was it fun to scrap with!  and these photos have been needing a layout for a while now! lol

Ain’t it cute?!  So get to the store and grab this while the gettin’s good at 40% off!

 

OH AND DON’T FORGET!

The weekly speed scrap is going on tonight at 10pm EST!  This time it is going to be hosted by Vanessa from ViVa Artistry!  We’ve been getting a lot of new participants in our speed scraps so they’re a great way to make new friends, have fun, and get a layout done while you’re at it!  Trust me, you’ll be coming back time and time again!  Check it out in this forum!

see ya later!

Speed Scrappin!

Hey everyone! I hope you all had a relaxing Saturday. My husband and I decorated our living room...(Hobby Lobby is having a sale) Then we had a nice dinner at a local restraunt. This evening ...just like every Saturday I attended the GDWI Speed Scrap. We have a blast every week. While it can be very challenging it is super fun and quite addictive. At the end everyone shares the link to their layout... and I am always stunned by the beautiful pages that everbody creates. The best part is how different all the pages turn out even though we all used the same instructions...So here are a few layouts from the past two speed scraps.

The first layout is by the talented Dani at tonight's speed scrap. She used Twas the Night Before Christmas and the coordinating Glitter Fills.


This layout was created by Amy. She used Buddies: Kooper. I love her titling!!!


Last, I have my layout from tonight's speed scrap. I used Chillaxin.
I hope to see you all at next week's Speed Scrap...10p, EST.

Happy Thursday!

Wow! Its Thursday again already? Where does the time go? We have been busy around my house with the holidays and now we have a bunch of birthdays to celebrate. We are in the process of buying the house that we are living in and it is going so slowly. Time just seems to fly by faster and faster each day, and I find us staying up later and later each night to try to get all of the things that we want to get done done.


I went browsing over at the GDWI gallery tonight and I found this LO and wanted to share it with all of you.

It was by former CT member Sharyn. I love the kit that she used for this. It's papers are so fun.

One last thing, don't forget the Speed Scrap at GDWI this Saturday night. It is always so much fun and is not to be missed.

Hey everyone !

Hope everyone is enjoying their week!!! I am hear again to tell you about our Speed Scrap over at Get Digi With It this past Saturday evening! It ROCKED! After a bit of internet hiatus (unwanted, I am sure), Maria was back and boy it was so great! We had wonderful conversation, humor and lots of snacks!!

Just want to share a few of the layouts we created for this challenge--- speed scrapping really forces me to get out of my 'normal' scrap style!!! Sometimes I really need that!

Here are two examples of layouts done with the exact same instructions!

First is 2 cute 4 words by Danimoy: She used Duchess' Chillaxin Mini kit Next is Best Present by me :) and I used Twas the Night Before Christmas for mine :)This is a great time for me to promote the new look of Get Digi With It. Maria has revamped everything and has given the site a new look and it is amazing. You really have to check it out!

Free Post

Ok, it has been FOREVER since I have posted on the blog. I have been on sort of a CT hiatus for November and December, but just like in Poltergiest --- III'mmmmm BAAAAAAAAAAACCCCK!

My post today was described as a Free Post -- well I am going to do three things: FIRST, give a shout out to the Duchess and say "I MISSED YOU TERRIBLY and I AM SO GLAD YOU HAVE INTERNET BACK".

Secondly, I am going to take a moment to promote the Speed Scrap over at Get Digi With It! It runs on Saturday evenings at 10pm EST. You get your detailed layout instructions the first hour, and then you get a second hour to finish up your layout and post it! I love speed scraps so much, and though they can seem intimidating at first, it really is a ton of fun! So, what's so fun about it? Well, it almost forces you to try different scrapping styles and techniques. I have learned a ton about blending photos specifically, and making them pop on your layout!
I hope you will stop by this Saturday to the SPEEDY SCRAP thread at GetDigiWithIt.com and see what all the fuss is about. Be sure to look for the current date! SO COME TO THE FIRST SPEED SCRAP OF THE NEW YEAR!!! Here are a few of the layouts I did for past speed scraps!


Don't you love this one !!! I used Lil Prima for this layout and Ink It Up 2 Frames!For this one I used Duchess' Falling Leaves kit --- ONE OF MY FAVES!

Ok, so the third thing I had planned was just to give you a chuckle. I am stealing this from my blog! If you don't know me, which you probably don't, I love Saturday Night Live, and specifically think that Justin Timberlake is hysterical and is probably one of the best hosts. Here is a clip someone put together of the parody he and a few other guys did with Beyonce spoofing her 'Single Ladies' video. Now, if you can't laugh at this, you may want to see someone! I love this clip because it shows them doing the dance, then cuts to the ACTUAL routine from the ACTUAL video so you can see how bad they did (or how well, depending on your dance training, you may think the guys are pretty talented!) ENJOY!!!


Now at the end you can see Paul Rudd who is actually the host this night - If you like this, google Omletteville!
