My 200th Post!

Wow, whoda thunk it?

I wanted to share with you some layouts I made using the latest templates by Nibbles Skribbles. I love working with templates. They are very useful in placement of the photos, papers and elements, but they can be altered to suit your needs.

Here is a layout I made today with Manda's Template Set #6:


That's my ugly mug. LOL! The kit I used is Summer Love by Just So Scrappy.

All of the paper placements, photo placement and the placement of the flowers was on the template.

Seriously, using templates makes scrapping so much easier and quicker too. Click on the link above to be taken to Nibbles Skribbles store at STS to look over her template collection. I'm sure you'll find something you'll like!

What a great day!

Yesterday was the (inter)National Digital Scrapbooking Day and the gang at Stuff to Scrap really had a good time with it. There was something going on nearly every hour! I can't believe I "wasted" a wonderfully sunny and warm day and spent it indoors scrapping. LOL.

Here are some of the layouts I created for the challenges. I will not, however, be sharing the rather unflattering layout I made for the dare I asked for in the Truth or Dare game held in the chat room last night. LOL. I'll share with you some of the speed scrap/Challenge a Day layouts I've done this week too.

For the November 4th Challenge a Day I made this layout of my son when he was in his "punk" phase. The challenge on this day was to use photomasks. I used a free photomask by Bouille. The kit I used was the Wicked collab between Scrappy Kat, SealScraps and FunkyTime Designs:


For the November 5th Challenge a Day, we were to make a layout with a recipe. So I made a recipe card using the kit Golden Sunshine by Summer Driggs:



For the November 5 Speed Scrap I made this layout using a combination of things created by Linda Walton of Bon Scrapatit, mostly from the kit Fresh as a Daisy.


For the first speed scrap yesterday, I made this layout using the free kit we were given for the speed scrap by Scrappy Kat called Falling for Fall Add On (the participation prize was the whole kit):


The second speed scrap I made this layout using a yet to be released kit by Nibbles Skribbles called On the Ice. Stay tuned for this one later as I've got more layouts made with this kit:


And one of the many games we played yesterday was BINGO. We made our own cards too. I used Nibbles Skribbles kit Picking Perfect Pumpkins:


Today promises to be another warm, sunny day and I have a boatload of outdoor chores to get to today after church, so no more digiscrapping for me today. Hope you'll hop over to Stuff to Scrap and join in the fun. It continues all month long!

So much going on tomorrow!

You won't believe all the fabulous stuff going on over at Stuff To Scrap in celebration of {Inter} National Digi-Scrap Day. We aren't just celebrating this Saturday, we are having a party all month long!

We have already kicked off the festivities with a sale in the store and with our challenge a day, but starting Saturday we are going to kick things up a notch. All day Saturday there will be challenges and activities going on in the forum and in our chat room. The best part is that there are prizes to win and everyone will receive participation prizes.

Here is the chat room schedule for Saturday.

Saturday & Sunday the entire STS store will be on sale. Click the ad below to head over to the store.

The first big event of the day over in the chat room is a Speed Scrap hosted by The Scrappy Kat.

Here is the participation prize you will receive for attending.

The second Speed Scrap of the day is being hosted by Scrap N Pieces.

Here is the participation prize for that SS.

At 4 pm MST you can head over to the chat for a hybrid challenge, head over now to find out what supplies you will need.

Both days this weekend Janice from JW-DigiScraps will be hosting progressive challenges, she promises they will truly be challenging and they sound super fun!

In the chat room & forum on Sunday there will be another Speed Scrap, hosted by Mad Genius Designs and following the Speed Scrap there will be a Scavenger Hunt taking place from the chat room as well.

If you like prizes, you will want to participate in our Challenge A Day. Each day a host will post a new challenge, they will announce the deadline for getting your assignments posted to the thread and the gallery (if required). All participants in the challenge a day (as long as you complete at least 3 challenges) will get a Participation Prize at the end of the month!


And don't forget that we are giving away a little piece of Scrap Yourself Silly on the STS Blog each day in November.
