Speed Scrap layout

I had such a great time at the speed scrap last night, it was great fun chatting to everyone, and I had my layout already finished, so I didn'T have to scrap and chat! Cheating really, but fun!
So I thought I would show you my layout

I used a St. Patricks Day kit by Sweet Tomato Designs and Geek Chic. I love that it is so versatile, cause we don't celebrate St. PAtricks day in Germany, but THIS I can use! (image linked to store)

CU soon!

Fotokasten

Well, I'll admit it, with this post I have the chance to win a €50,-- voucher for yet another photobook. Doesn't she have enough I hear you say, but hey, I take about 10.000 pictures a year, I have no where near enough photobooks!
Fotokasten is another German place to get all sorts of products with your photos. Their main "thing" are photobooks and calendars, but they have some other great products there.
I have only just finished testing a different photobook software for trnd.de, so if I do get this voucher, then I will be able to make a direct comparison, and decide for myself, where I get the best deal! So far I have been won over by the other software, so I wonder if Fotokasten.de can convince me too!

So as I am not sure, about the blogging rules of the competition, I am now going to repeat myself, BUT in German! You don't need to worry that I am talking about you all behind your backs, promise!

Also ich muß zugeben, mit diesem Blogeintrag habe ich die Möglichkeit einen €50,-- Gutschein für NOCH einen Fotobuch zu gewinnen (www.meingutscheincode.de). "Hat sie nicht langsam genug Fotobücher?" höre ich Euch sagen...hey, ich mache ungefähr 10.000 photos im Jahr, da hab ich noch lange nicht genügend Fotobücher!
Fotokasten ist hier in Deutschland ein weiterer Anbieter von Fotoprodukten. Ihr "Ding" sind Fotobücher und Kalender aber die haben auf Ihrer Homepage auch andere Tolle Fotoprodukten.
Ich bin gerade mit einem Produkttest bei trnd.de für eine weitere Fotobuchsoftware fertig, d.h wenn ich diesen Gutschein kriege, kann ich problemlos einen Direktvergleich machen, und kann dann für mich selbst entscheiden, wo ich den besseren Service und Produkt kriege. Bisher hat mich die andere Software überzeugt, aber vielleicht kann mich auch Fotokasten überzeugen! Ich bin da ganz offen!

Hab ich Euch neugierig gemacht, schaut Euch mal selbst bei Fotokasten um

CU soon

New Challenges at FPD

The new challenges are up at Funky Playground Designs, and I am hosting one of them. First all about my challenge and then I'll tell you a little bit about Trish's!

My challenge is a Scraplift Challenge, I chose a cute layout by AmieN1, which you can see in the challenge thread, but I will show you my layout for the challenge. I got this cute pic of the boys today, it was so cold outside, and they had such rosy cheeks, too cute!

Trish is hosting the Technique Challenge, I'm going to play along with that one too, she has a great tutorial in the thread about how to sharpen the layout for the web, and on some of mine I really do think they need that, so I am going to see how it goes!

So if you want to come and join in the fun at FPD, click right here to find all our challenges, (psst, a new template challenge starts on Friday!)

Flea Market Finds (incl. link to freebie)

I really don't know how to start this post, I feel like gushing, praising, lots of OMG's and AMAZINGS, etc...oh now there's a good start. Etc. by Danyale (a good digiscrapping, online friend) has been designing amazing wordart and alphas for a while now, but she now has released her FIRST EVER kit, and O..M...G!! Check this out! (all images linked to Danyale's store, so you can load up your cart!)

And not only that, to go along with it she has this AMAZING alpha
And this one!
and this BRILLIANT word art
And these GORGEOUS borders and clusters
And EVERYTHING is on offer this weekend, you really DON'T want to miss it!

When I got the bits to play with, I had just been asked by Mum for a Birthday card without a photo on it, I thought the Monogram Alpha was just perfect for the occasion, and once it was finished I sent it over to Danyale so she could give it away to everyone. So click on the image to go to Danyale's blog to pick it up. And don't forget to say thank you!CU soon

Template Challenge and a Special kit

It's time for me to host another challenge at Funky Playground Designs. This month I put my name down for the template challenge, I had the choice of making my own template or asking the designers at FPD if they had one for me...I decided to ask for one for the challenge, so that people want to play with me and don't run away! And Michelle Batton, owner of and designer at FPD made this beautiful template for all of us to play with (image linked to the challenge at FPD)

And this is my take on the template!

Now come and join the fun over at FPD and show me your take on the template! Not only do you get the template you also have the chance to win a $5 Gift Coupon for an FPD Collab!

And now I want to show you a very special kit that is on sale at FPD until December 20th- Shades of Red, the designers and some of the CT at FPD got together to make this kit for Cindy (CT Lead and cheerleader for us all)
Cindy is always there for FPD and Michelle wanted an extra special Xmas present for her and this is what was made (there are even some bits in there that I made...!) Cindy has always wanted a RED kit, they don't come any redder than this one! (image linked to store). CU at Funky Playground!
Or here again very soon!

A goshawk and a party!

First of all, I'll tell you about the party going on at Funky Playground Designs
I know of one game that will be going on over there soon, and it will be really really fun!

One of the birthday offers is the amazing "Life is Good" Collab by the Funky Playground Designers, I got to play with it in advance, and decided it was the perfect kit to scrap our visitor from last week! A goshawk, as beautiful as he may be, we did lose a chicken, and a pane of glass, when he took the short cut through the window instead of out of the open door, but that's another layout (to be coming soon!)Stop by FPD and enjoy the fun in November
CU there
