Berry Berry Quite Contrary

 

If you are looking for the ScrapMatters Birthday Blog Train – please scroll down one post.

So I mentioned earlier that TinaMarie was guesting at another store this month – and it has opened for the month of August at Zig Zag Scrap!

Her new kit Berry Berry Quite Contrary has some really cute elements and papers.

Here’s my card:

It seems I’m kind of into dotted lines and I’m trying out a clean simple style at times. I really love how this style can emphasize one or two really special pieces in a card.

ScrapMatters 4th Bday Blog Train 2011!

Welcome to my stop on the ScrapMatters birthday blog train – (you probably got here from the previous stop – Neverland Scraps) - follow along the train to all the stops to collect wonderful clusters, QPs, brag book pages, and page stacks created with the ScrapMatters Design Team collab Garden Party!

And this kit is free Aug 5-7 with a 20 dollar purchase in the store!
The blog train gifts are only available for a short time after which they will be packaged up and placed in the store. There’s also a fun photo puzzle contest going on – with hidden puzzle pieces located in some of the blog train downloads, check out the ScrapMatters blog for more details.
Here’s my gift for you – a stacked paper!
 
Thanks so much for stopping by – your next stop is Manda. Or check out the list below to see all the stops! I love comments and really love reading any words you have time to write. Thank you in advance. And if you like it here – take a look around my blog or subscribe, I’ve got some fun random posts, some posts about my scrapping projects and hope to post even more in the future!

DST August New to You Designer August 2011–Snips and Snails

 

The New to You Designer for August 2011 is Snips and Snails. This kit is even more fun than the preview makes you think. The color scheme is great (love blue and green) and the doodle alpha is fantastic! You should see the layouts with this kit – they are some of my favorites!

I created these monogram bookmarks – matched perfectly with a ribbon set I’ve been dying to use. I had fun altering the positions of the ribbons to add a fun touch. The kit works really well for a clean graphic style as well as a more complicated scrappy style. The font is Honey Script.

Allison Pennington is the Gold Member designer this month for August 2011 and she created a huge kit!!! There are tons of doodle and realistic elements. And a range of fun, bright, rainbow colors.

I created a fun card inspired by the bee doodle:
