Moments In Time: January

My first kit of the new year is this first edition of my popular monthly kits. This year they will be called Moments In Time.

This is what comes with the basic kit: 15 pattern papers, 6 cardstock papers (not shown), and 64 elements. You can purchase just this kit as shown here.

If you want more elements, papers and an alpha, you will want to purchase the collection shown here. In the collection, you will receive the main kit, 6 journaling cards, 10 extra pattern papers and a ticket alpha in the two colors shown. Or you can purchase any of the 3 extras by themselves. Go here for the collection.

Either way you choose to buy this kit, be sure to shop this weekend and enjoy the 30% discount on this new release!

Who's Ready for a Challenge?!

The team at The Digichicks spent a lot of time in December creating some of the most exciting and creative challenges that I have ever seen! The challenges will do just that -- challenge you to try new things that you may not have tried before. Several designers are involved in the challenges, offering free stuff for you to use to complete the challenge. That's a real bonus! And other challenges will teach you some things that you may not know about. Check out the photography challenge by Chloe!

All of the challenges are designed to get you motivated to scrap and document your life. Just click here to enter our Challenge Forum and decide which of the challenges you want to try this month!

Here's the template Southern Serenity is offering in the template challenge this month:

Long Holiday Break

I took a long holiday break this year and spent time with my family. It's not that we went anywhere out-of-town but we just got together and didn't rush through Christmas. I haven't been able to do that for a few years and it was so nice.

That meant that my time on the computer was limited. However, I did have time to think about things I want to create in the upcoming year and new things I want to try. I hope you will like the things I have planned.

I am keeping my monthly kits this year but I have revised them. They will consist of a simple kit with papers and elements and then I will also have alphas, extra papers and extra elements included in a bundled collection. You are able to choose just what you want from the monthly collection as they each will be offered individually.

Here is a sneak peek at my first kit of the new year. This year my monthly kits are called "Moments In Time" and this sneak peek is the January edition.

I have several freebies to go with this kit and you will find them in my newsletter, on my Facebook page, here on the blog and on my website. Watch for those this 3-day weekend!

Family Time: Thanksgiving

I think of this time of year as family time. It's a time to gather together and enjoy the special food for the holiday season. In our family, the Thanksgiving dinner menu is written up and discussed and we always end up with way too much food! Everyone has their one special dish that they feel I need to make. But, you know, I wouldn't have it any other way! 

Even though I'm not always good about pulling out my camera for daily photos, I try to makeup for it during the holidays. I will spend a lot of time taking photos of family and food over the next couple of months and I wanted a kit to use again and again.

Here is my go-to Thanksgiving kit appropriately named Family Time: Thanksgiving.

You can find this in my shop this weekend at 30% off! Don't let the weekend pass by without grabbing this sweet kit.

Sneak Peek...coming this week!

Just a little teaser for what is coming to my shop at The Digichick this weekend. You can find this kit on Thursday.

Sweet Layouts with Sweet Girl!

I am so grateful for the group of ladies that tirelessly make pages with my kits each week. Even with families of their own to keep them busy, they take time to create some pretty awesome pages with my kits. Thank you, ladies, and thank you for allowing me to share your talent with everyone.

More Eye Candy!

This "Eye Candy" is in the form of scrapbooking layouts using my new kit, Who You Are. Take a look at these great layouts from my creative team and one from me!

One of The Digichick's CT members created this layout for me. Sharon took the colors in her son's shirt and found that they were a perfect match for this kit. I love the stripe paper border at the top and the banner stretching across it. Her clustering around the photo shows it off to perfection! I may be scraplifting this one, myself!!!

This photo is the first thing that caught my eye. Beata created this page and layered items all around and under this photo without it overwhelming the photo itself. It is a beautiful layout!

Renee created this layout using one of my favorite papers in this kit as the background! Then she layered strips on top to bring your eye to the photo and the little arm around her neck. Very nice, Renee!

This layout is mine and it tells the story that was my inspiration for making this kit. In his freshman year of college, one of my son's professors told him he would never achieve his dream. After graduating in another major and working for 8 years, he decided to go back to school to pursue his dream. In the summer of 2014, he will graduate from dental school. The quote on this page is very fitting for his situation. For me, the story behind it is what makes this page special.

Great Gifts and Prizes in the Scavenger Hunt!

Go on a Scavenger Hunt through our store and you could be the Grand Prize Winner. Just a hint...you will be looking for the girl with the DSD shopping cart!

Digi Scrap Parade Is Up and Available

The Digi Scrap Parade is rolling along and designers are waiting for you along the way. There are 50 stops along the Parade route so be prepared to fill your hard drive!!! Just kidding...maybe only half-fill up your hard drive!

If you haven't seen it yet, here is my part of the Parade. I really liked the colors and theme this time as both a designer and a scrapbooker. I think you will, too!

This mini kit contains 6 papers, an embellished frame, word art quote, ribbon and bow, "Our Life" banner, shaded flower, shaded leaves, and a heart-shaped photo mask.

You can find this and download it at my website.

Here's a little tip: If you are busy shopping all the bargains, let me just remind you that this parade will be available for download through the entire month of November. If you encounter any long waits to download an item along the route, just wait until after DSD to return.

Creative Inspirations...with the 11th Month kit

I never get tired of looking through all the wonderful layouts that my creative teams produces with my kits. And I never get tired of sharing them with you! It is always so much fun to see how different the layouts can be from one person to the next all using the same products.

Let's take a look...

I love Krista's fun approach with this kit using a turkey in the title! Pages like this will be a treasure in the years to come for her son to look through and remember his personality at this age.

Lori captured these adorable photos of her children and then used a template from Southern Serenity, a designer at The Digichick, to create her layout. I love the clustering she did throughout the page!

Renee created this calendar page for November. I love the little turkey tucked in among the beautiful clustering that she did on this page.

I love the use of the "Family" frame in this layout by Beata. The clustering around the frame is gorgeous!

Stephanie took the November kit and created this travel page using a template by another designer at The Digichick -- Cornelia Designs. The colors in the photo are a great match with the colors in the paper and embellishments she chose. It's a beautiful page!

Vanessa created this page using a new template also from Cornelia Designs. I love how she took this kit and made a page about she and her husband!

Here's another lovely layout by Renee with photos of her mom and dad and aunt and uncle reminding us to be grateful for each day with our family and to say "I Love You" whenever you get the chance.

Chick Blitz...

No, it's not a new chicken recipe. It's a Sale at The Digichick where select products in the shop are just $2.00! That's an even better bargain than the 40% off sale already going on! I have selected 9 products to add to this sale and here is a preview of those products!
