The second LO I choose is from our POP ROCKS challenge! Summer TV was created by Paula and she used the new awesome kit Lights Camera Action by Julie and one of Darcy’s fonts!!

Layout Of The Week - 07/21

Hello sweet scrappers, this is Jacq bringing you our layout of the week. There’s a lot of awesome and inspiring layouts in the gallery and I’ve chosen a super adorable page that will be featured in our homepage this week. Mlewis created Drama Queen using Julie Bilingsley’s latest kit called Lights Camera Action and here it is… 

Oh my gosh look at that cute little face. Not only are the photos wonderful but I love how she did the entire page too. So congrats Mlewis! Look out for a PM from me shortly.

Spin-A-Lift with EveRecinella 7/20/08

Happy Sunday morning to you all! Kay here with another great gallery for you to spin! This week we are featuring the gallery of one of our very own talented Sugarbabes, Eve Recinella. Take a look at Eve’s fabulous gallery Here or her DST gallery Here. Eve has some really beautiful layouts for inspiration and I’m sure you’ll find plenty you’d like to spin. I had a hard time choosing but I finally settled on this lovely layout she did using Kristin’s gorgeous Natural Beauty Kit.

And here is what I came up with using Girls Rule Boys Drool by Lauren Grier, Mandabean and Shawna Clingerman.

Make sure to upload your layout to the Spin A Lift Gallery and link us up to it here on the blog. As always, if you use a new release you can earn an extra Sweet Reward Point!

Have a great week!! Kay :)

 

 

Sweet Keepsakes Spotlight

Hey! Ho! It’s Krystal coming at you with my sweet Texas twang to highlight some awesome hybrid goodness happening right here in the Sweet Shoppe gallery. With the busy-ness of the summer and the seduction of the swimming pool, it is hard to park ourselves long enough to pull out the podge, but some of the chicas are like the Energizer Bunny…they just keep amazing us with their ideas!

One of these gals is juliemarie. Look at this ADORABLE composition notebook which she created with Bubblegum Princess, a sticky sweet Perfect Pairs kit by Zoe Pearn and Gina Miller and Altered Composition Book template by Bree Clarkson.

Altered Composition Notebook

But she didn’t stop there…no…she managed to create a fabulous birthday card using Zoe’s fabulous Savoir Faire kit.

Birthday Card

Congratulations, girl! You’ve earned yourself an extra 3 Sweet Rewards points for your hybrid genius! And I swear I didn’t play favorites and pick you because we just happen to share the same “meet the earth” day. :)

Well, that wraps it up for this week’s spotlight. I can’t wait to see what you guys will come up with next. Now, I’m off to check out the awesome new releases for this week. Who doesn’t love Sweet Shoppe Saturdays??

Color Confectionary 7.18

Hi! Aggie here to give you a taste of a new color challenge. My mind was in the clouds the whole week thinking I had the perfect color combination to give you only to find out it has been used already! (Silly me didnt even check..) Good thing my fellow Sugarbabes came to the rescue with their awesome layouts so I can give you an example (as Im such a slow scrapper), I thought we can go back to the basics of the color wheel today - let us scrap the PRIMARIES! Red, Blue and Yellow :) Im so sure you will not have a hard time finding these in the shoppe.

In order to earn the extra sweet reward point this is how you need to play along:Use this color combination to complete one of the existing challenges in the Sweet Shoppe Challenge forum. Post your layout in the corresponding challenge gallery and after you’ve linked up your layout in the forum come back here and link us up in the comments section of this post.

This must be a new layout created from this time forward not an existing one that’s already been uploaded to the gallery. You have one week to complete your layout and it must be linked back through this blog post no later than 11:59PM Thursday July 14th.

Here are a few amazing layouts from Sugarbabes Kellie and Meghan to give you inspiration:

And you can always mosey over to the shoppe if you need to get a kit to work with ;)

From Our Blog to Yours 7.17.08

Greetings, scrappers! Mimi here with a new FOB2Y. It’s full-on summertime here, which for some reason got me to thinking about the summer jobs I had as a teenager. One summer I picked strawberries with my sister at a nearby farm. It was hot, boring work. Another summer I had a job filing in a doctor’s office. I managed to lock one of the filing cabinets: the only cabinet without a lock, of course. It had to be drilled open; I was pretty mortified about that. Fortunately, I was not fired. And yet another summer I volunteered at a hospital snack shop, spilling coffee into cups and frying up grilled cheese sandwiches. My summer jobs weren’t the most exciting experiences but they did keep me from becoming too bored over the summer since I lived in a small town and didn’t have many friends.

So your mission is to blog about the summer jobs (or adventures, if you didn’t work) you had when you were a teenager.

Remember, you must post on your own blog and leave a link in the comments to earn a point for your Sweet Rewards. If you do not have a blog, you can create one for free using a service like blogger.com or wordpress.com.

Workin’ It Again

LOL, it’s late and I can’t think of a good title…so there ya go.  I’m workin’ it again!

So, I had this great big plan for the post today, to show off a new product line that was supposed to come out at the end of June…but…lots of stuff happened and I haven’t had a chance to release them yet.  LOL!  Sooo…I have to admit, I was scrambling today to come up with something for you girls (and guys)!  AND, since my site and CT board is down…I couldn’t call on my lovely CT to help me out, either!  LOL!  Yep, I’m batting a thousand here tonight, for sure (thank GOODNESS for Shawna helping me access the blog, even…I couldn’t remember my password).

Anyhow, to make things easy, I’m going to make this short and sweet tonight.  Basically…I’ve created a 12×12 template as a gift to you.   But wait, there’s a bit more to it, lol - though there is nothing required!  If you want, you can have the gift as a thank you for being a great customer here at SSD.  Buuuut…if you want a chance to win $10 worth of my own products, all you have to do is scrap with it and post it in my gallery here at SSD to be entered into a draw.  Easy enough, right?  So, let’s go!  Here’s the template (image is linked):

In case you can’t see the image above, here is the link to download the file: http://www.4shared.com/file/55449469/70b4bf14/bclarkson-workinit01.html

Alright, so now that you’ve got that…the “rules” are simple.  All you’ve gotta do, if you choose to participate, is create a layout with the template and post it in my designer gallery here at SSD by 11:59pm PST next Tuesday.  For every 15 particpants, I will choose 1 winner in a random draw.  Each winner will receive their choice of my products, up to a $10 value (excluding the Inspired By series of templates).  I will announce the winners next Wednesday morning.  It’s really as simple as that!
I hope that you enjoy playing with this template…and keep on scrappin!

Gallery Standouts 7/15

Wow let me just say it wasn’t easy choosing four layouts to be featured here today. I went through the gallery and found a lot and I mean a LOT of wonderful pages. I had to narrow down my first ten choices to four. Our gallery is really full of amazing layouts (yay for us). So for our gallery standouts this week I bring you….

Run by junebug layout which was created for the SWTSB #36 The Photo Says it All challenge. The new Chunky Monkey two scoops kit by by Robin Carlton and MandaBean was used for this fabulous page.

Next we have Beautiful, a gorgeous page by twentytinytoes using the stunning collab kit by Zoe Pearn and Gina Miller called Bubblegum Princess. The photo is just stunning and she embellished her page so well.

This All Smiles layout by Beccaboo was also created for the SWTSB #36 The Photo Says it All challenge. She used the Little Buddies collab by Dani Mogstad and Gina Miller here.

Lastly I found this gorgeous layout by babycake which was created for the One Word Challenge #12 - Pure. Just like the title Pure Beauty I think this layout is a beauty. She used Kristin Cronin-Barrow’s Natural Beauty kit for this stunning page.


I hope to see more amazing layouts from all you wonderful SSD scrappers. Til next time this is Jacq signing off.

Layout Of the Week - July 14, 2008

First off, can I tell you all how AWESOME the gallery looks. It took me quite a few days to go over everything from the week. Over 95 pages of NEW LAYOUTS this week ALONE. I am just stunned. And awed by the talent that we have here at SSD. To say I had a really difficult time choosing would be an understatement.

This Layout by GracieLou is just gorgous. I love the tree and the colors of this layout. I like that it is a nature layout, yet she used untraditional colors.

Congrats! Look for a PM from me shortly. :)
