Scrappy Chics Kits: Sneaks! { Day 2 }

More Spring Fling! &
New!! Color Combos Galore sneaks!

So how do you like my new blog?
I love the new design, so happy with how it turned out.
Pretty blues and grays.
I switched my playlist to the music I always scrap to.
Though I miss my upbeat tunes,
I think my scrappy music is more fitting.
I hope you are enjoying it.
Still trying to figure out how to adjust the volume.
So torn with having a blog with music or without.
Yesterday I announced I have joined the design team at Scrappy Chics Kits.
L-O-V-E  T-H-E-M!!!!
Here are some more sneaks using the April kit, Spring Fling:

I recently discovered the Graphics Fairy blog, yeah I know, where have I been? I was actually looking around for a vintage label to use on my blog when I found this image of some cute birds. It just cracked me up! I can't wait for you all to see this card!

Kit: Scrappy Chics - Spring Fling (April '11) plus
Cardstock: American Crafts (white); Punch: Martha Stewart (border); Digital: Graphics Fairy (birds), unknown vintage frame; Edwardian Script (font);
Other: Studio G (glitter glue); ColorBox (fluid chalk); Offray (ribbon); fabric trim piece, Dritz tracing tool (faux stitches)
When Melinda asked me to include a project with my layouts, I have to say, that scared me a bit. Projects? I am going to admit, projects are never on my scrapping to-do list. Just layouts and cards. But you know what? I have to start sometime. So I decided to create projects that I can gift for birthdays and Christmas.
Done.

Kit: Scrappy Chics - Spring Fling (April '11) plus
Rub-ons: Basic Grey (sentiment); Punch: EK Success (leaf);
Other: Studio G (glitter glue); linen thread
Check back tomorrow when I can finally show them all!

You know, this week has really set me in a sneaky mood!
So I have decided I am going to start a little tradition....
On my color challenge site, there are sneak peeks of the current challenge.
But for my lovely readers here,
I say, why wait until then?
(wink)
See you there!


Thanks for looking!
Have a fantabulous day!
xoxo

OH OH OH!

Am I excited!
Beyond words.
I have been bursting at the seams.
Waiting for today.
Hard work.
All worth it.
And now I have relaunched Color Combos Galore.
The Redesign.
The Girls.
The Layouts.
The Reveal.
The Plans.
Nothing short of FABULOUS.

For over four years, this has been my goal.
To inspire others with a world of color.
And now, I am taking it further.
And it's so exciting!

It's challenges....with a twist.
Where imagination meets inspiration.
As scrapbookers, we know the importance creativity plays in designing our pages.
For a long time, I have been pushing your creativity through exploring new ways to use color.
And now....
We are going even further.

Creativity is more than just using your imagination to generate new ideas.
Creativity is a lifestyle, a way of looking at the world.
When creative ideas seem to be hiding,
we turn to outside sources for inspiration.

That's where Color Combos Galore comes in.
We invite you to delve deeper into creativity.
Through the challenes that will allow you to open new doors of inspiration.
Many returning features and a lot of exciting things to come.

The new Color Combos Galore strives to help you discover inspiration and color through new eyes.
Where color and imagination meet inspiration.

Our first challenge,
Color Combo #145
ARE YOU READY?
HERE WE GO!
LET'S PLAY!

Woo-hoo!!!!

I am so excited to tell you that Scrapbooker Online has chosen my Color Combos Galore challenge blog for their challenge this month! YAY!! That is so cool! I have been working on these challenges for so long and love it dearly. My main goal was to open up a world of color for you and experiment new colors. There are so many ways to creatively work the combo into your layout. It's easier than you think! And when you use it right, you get something pretty amazing! So I am pretty happy I have inspired so many of you. So when Carolyn Lontin asked me, I have to tell ya, I was pretty thrilled. Well they chose their favorites from the archives and are starting with Combo #61 for their first week and will post a new one every Monday in April. Check it out and hope you play along with them!
