Little Artist

I have a new kit out that I am in love with!  I made a kit to use to scrap all the pictures I have of my kids painting, coloring, and playing with playdoh.  We have yet to use glue, craft materials or markers but I'm sure I'll have those pictures before too long!  This kit is called Little Artist.  It's packed full of art elements: paint brushes, a paint palette, an easel, crayons, crayon boxes, color pencils, a pencil, markers, chalk, glue, popsicle sticks, handprints, paint splatters, pipe cleaners, rubber bands, paper shape cut outs, scissors and even googly eyes!  The papers all have paint textures to them and I think they are a lot of fun!  I hope you will love this kit as much as I do!

I also have a set of coordinating QPs in my store.  Both the kit and QPs will be 30% off for one week.

Take a look at what my CT did with this kit.  I love their amazing layouts!

I got so carried away making all the art elements that I made too many elements for the kit!  I have a freebie element add on for you.  You can get it HERE.

My CT also has some great freebies for you!  Images are linked to their blogs.

It’s sure to be a fun, easy-to-finish SPEED SCRAP and what could be better than choosing your own prize?!?!  Don’t miss it!  :)

Digi Designs by Nicole has an Easter kit in the $2 bin today.

The Great Outdoors

Mommy Me Time Scrapper has a great kit in her store called The Great Outdoors Mega Kit.  Our weather is nice enough that we can spend time outside most days so I'm sure this kit will be one that will come in handy for so many pictures.  The colors are perfect for woodsy pictures and the elements are packed full to cute forest animals!  Here's a look at the kit.

Here are my layouts. The first one I made for the scraplift challenge at Stuff to Scrap.

Rainy Days and Rainbows

I don't know about you but the weather here has been kooky!  We had 83 degrees and sunny yesterday and now this week we're back in the 50s.  It's been raining here off and on but not on warm enough days for us to go outside and play in the rain.  This kit that I have to tell you about today is called Rainy Days and Rainbows.  Too bad for me I didn't have any rainy day pictures.  This kit has beautiful rainbow colors with such fun rainy day elements.  Here's a look at the kit (which also has coordinating QPs and CU items) that is 30% off for one week.

This kit is so versatile with it's rainbow colors.  It can be used for so many different photos.  I wish I had rainy day photos so I could use the cute umbrellas and rain boots!  Here's my layout.

I was able to use those cutte elements for a freebie cluster frame for you!  You can download HERE.

Digi Designs by Nicole is going to be having a layout of the day on her blog.  Once a week someone's layout using a Digi Designs by Nicole kit is going to be featured on her blog.  That person will win a $1 coupon to her store.  At the end of the month, the LOTD layouts will be voted on by her creative team and that person will win a coupon for a free kit!  Check on the flier for more details and check out Nicole's blog.

Sweet Lil' Stinker

I have a new kit out this week.  I teamed up with one of my CT members, JJ aka Giggly Polka Dots, to create a full size kit of my mini that I created a couple weeks ago for my competition.  It's called Sweet Lil' Stinker.  My daughter is the cutest little girl (we're all biased aren't we!?!) but she can be such a little stinker sometimes and then she just gives me this adorable smile.  It's so hard to be upset with her! If you have a little girl I imagine you've been in this situation before!  This kit is a mix of pastels with black and whites.  Here's a look at the kit.

Aren't those skunks adorable?  Take a look at what my CT did with this kit.

Amazing work, huh?  I also have a set of Quick Pages in the store.

We've got some freebies for you.  Click on the previews to be taken to my CT's blogs.

2 new kits

I have 2 new kits to tell you about today.  One is a collab between The Scrappy Kat and Mommy Me Time Scrapper.  The second is by one of STS's newest designers, MDK Scraps.  I have a freebie with both of them! 

The Scrappy Kat and Mommy Me Time Scrapper teamed up to create an Easter kit called Bunny Trail.  It's perfect for Easter photos which you will have before you know it!  Here's a look at the kit (if you visit The Scrappy Kat's store, you'll find a freebie!) which is 40% off!  Wow-that's a great sale!

Here's my layout.

I made a freebie cluster frame for you.  You can download HERE.

The next kit I have to show you today is one my MDK Scraps and it's called Hello Spring.  MDK Scraps was asking for guest CTs and I just loved the colors in this kit so I had to help her out!  This kit is so fun and bright and very springy.  I sure wish it would feel more springy around here!  This kit will be on sale for $2 until Wednesday.

Here's my layout.  Unfortunately I'm relatively caught up with scrapping my pictures and so I have no spring pictures since we have yet to experience spring around here.  But I still found something that would work!

I also made a freebie cluster frame for you using this kit.  You can download HERE.

April BAKs

Here's a layout I made using pieces from the various kits by The Scrappy Kat.
