PYP Blog: Artscow: 10 Free 8*8 Photo Books

I found out about a deal through Artscow where you can get 10 FREE 8x8 books (20 pages each). They are made in China so don't expect them back really soon, but everyone that I know that has ordered through them has loved how cheap yet nice they are.

Lots of New LOs..

I have a bunch to share. So here we go...

I am trying to get a bunch of layouts done so that I can get 2009 printed. I think I have maybe 10-20 left. That may sound like a lot but we went to Disneyland and I have some of the holidays left to scrap.

The first one I am sharing is actually one I just finished. It is using a REALLY cute kit by Jessica Edwards called "Day at the Zoo". Also, right now my mojo is missing so I am using a lot of templates lately it seems. I think that Chrissy W. always designs some really classy LOs and I love the one I ended up using. It comes from her "Sample Pack 15"

Next we have a really cute kit by Wimpychompers called "Dog-Gone". It has the most adorable little dogs in it. I also used a template by GSD by Nikki Epperson called "Playing With Layers".

As for the next two....Down This Road Designs (a local digial designer) asked me if I would work with an LDS themed kit called "Missionary Memories: Sister". Previously I had worked with the Elder kit and I loved this one just as much. It is so darling and can be used to scrap missionary photos OR pictures of your future little missionaries. You will noticed that I even used it for a ward activity. The first LO is using another awesome template by Chrissy W. "Sample Pack 16". The second one is from "Playing With Layers" by GSD by Nikki Epperson...can you tell that I love her templates? :)

So....

I realize that the past couple of weeks I haven't really posted much other than the sales that I come across. Sorry. We are starting the baseball season and we will pretty much be out of the house 5 days a week with it for 2 months. If you know any quick and easy recipes I would greatly appreciate it because if it isn't quick then we resort to a drive-up. :)

I have done a lot of layouts though. Part of the problem is that I need to wait until the kit is released so that I don't ruin the surprise of what the designer has coming up.

Here are a couple of my favorite though.

This is one of my all-time favorites. I love the use/lack of color. I used "Are You Game?" by Wimpychompers that she had over at Polkadotplum before she left. I am sure she will be re-releasing it over at Scrap Matters and will let you know when she does.

This one is using a kit by Wimpychompers called "No Girls Allowed". It has some really fun elements in it. SIDE NOTE: She is now selling exclusively at Scrap Matters. It is a really nice store and when you post your layouts everyone there is so nice and comments so quickly on them. Check it out!

This one is using a lot of different designers' Color Play items over at Elemental Scraps. Each month they give the designers a color scheme to work with and they make what ever they wish with it. I used Amanda Carlson's alpha "Like Totally", Bella Gypsy's "Afternoon Cuddles" Embellishments and Template AND Albums to Remember "Stripes" paper.

For this layout I actually worked with a designer at Brownie Scraps who was looking for someone to make a LDS themed LO. It is called "Missionary Memories Elder" by Down This Road Designs. I also used a template by Bella Gypsy called "Lookie Here". If you would like to read my journaling please go here.

This one I actually did today. Madame Wing is a guest designer right now over at Elemental Scraps. For this I used "Hugs and Sunshine". I LOVE the flowers she has in this kit. Make sure you head over there and see what she has up in her store.

This is another really recent LO. I used a collab kit by Connie Prince and Armina Designs. It is appropriately called "Chick Magnet". It has a lot of different papers and elements. I just used only a small portion of them. Head over to Connie's store when you can. She is a fabulous designer and she has a lot of really cool stuff.
