So, what do you think?

I didn't make it to Round 2 of the SAS-y Lady Designer Contest; but what a great experience. And I still get to see what the Designers Contest people see, so all the hints, tips and tricks are available and I can get a bit more help with designing.

I love Wendyzine Scraps at SBG. She's one terrific action creator! And she's having a sale. Now's the time to get her actions, calendar (2010) templates and other great products.

Wendyzine Scraps' Store at SBG. Just grab the sale codes from her ad and have a great time browsing her store for some goodies.

Since it's September, it's a great time to start thinking about the upcoming Holiday Season. You can get started on your 2010 Calendars, and photo books.

Have fun!

I promised you a QP

And here's a picture of my Harmony QP. You can download it here.

As a new designer, it was really hard for me to know what to put in the kit. The papers weren't the problem, but what elements would everyone want? I just went with what I would like to see in the kit. Then the second part of our assignment was to make a quickpage from the kit and give it to you. I hope you enjoy it and can use it in your digital scrapping. It's a 12x12 page at 300 dpi.

Thanks for stopping by.

Sas-y Lady Designer Contest Round 1

Here is the minikit that I designed for the Sas-y Lady Designer Contest Round 1. I love the color palette that was given to us for this round. And the harmony of the colors suggested the title of the kit.

We were limited to 2-4 papers and 5-8 elements, one of the elements had to be a cluster.

This kit contains 3 papers, 1 frame cluster, 1 tag, 1 arrow, 1 staple, 1 swirl, 1 frame, 1 paperclip and 1 alpha (uppercase, lowercase and numbers). It was made at 300 dpi.

I hope you will vote for me in this round. You can go to Stone Accents Studio gallery to pick up the kit for free.

I'll have a quickpage for you my next note. Thanks for stopping by!

My team didn't win

the BOTCT; but we had a great time using all of Mandy King's (Mama Mia) designs and kits.

And in the news today, there is a designer challenge at Stone Accents Studio which will start on September 1. I have signed up for this challenge; but now I have to take a bunch of photos and extract some images so I can have a few "CU" (commercial use) products to use for the challenge. I'm not sure how to do extractions that are good enough for commercial use; but practice makes perfect, so I'll be practicing a LOT!

DSA BOTCTs and a contest

DSA's Battle of the CTs is in its last week of challenges. I'll post my layout later.

And here's a fantastic contest from Wendyzine Scraps!
Wendy has some super actions and she's also got some
great templates. But in addition to doing both of those
you also get to just make a comment on the SBG blog
for a chance to win.

So go over to the SBG Blog. Good luck!

The Battle has started at DSA

DigiScrapAdicts is having a 4 week Challenge - Battle of the Creative Teams. I'm on Mama Mia's Marvelous Memory Makers team. Simply put, the rules of the challenge are that we have to use ONLY products from our designer - Mama Mia in my case.

For the first challenge we had to create a layout using white space. So here is my layout Chief Cook... :

A Bookmark Template

Miss Chrissy D. requested a bookmark template at DST so she can make bookmarks for the first day of class to give to her incoming students. I tried to find some bookmarks in some of the digital stores "out there"; but nothing showed up. So I made one for her.

If you think you can use it, too, please feel free to download it. Remember to send your friends here to grab the download link. Please don't share it in yahoo links, etc.

Here's the link for you: Bookmark Template.
